Hi all, was wondering what are the best add on side skirts for the n1 spats. I have a front lip by top secret right now which I want to even out in height. if nothing is good out there might just get a top secret carbon hood. added a recent photo of my engine bay for viewing pleasure. Coming along slowly just taking a while in Hong Kong to get all the parts. Next up is a titanium custom intake for my hks turbos. thanks

They titanium though … if so sign me up 😭

So u just use upgraded speakers and a blue tooth with the stock head unit? Do u have any recommendations for speaks that will fit? Thanks great info.

This is actually a valid point. Need to test the wiring to see if it’s still good. As my cd changer control isn’t working now.

Hi all, so some of my speakers still work some I don’t think work. The old head unit is still all functional. If I keep the stock head unit as I feel it’s vintage then can I just pop in new speakers - would that be plug and play? Would I need to bypass the amps in the doors and back? Heard there’s 3 of them. anyone run a blue tooth into the stock head unit? Or is the only option running one of those tape decks with cable coming out? my cd deck controller although rare I don’t think is working anymore either. Guess if I got that working with the speakers then I could load some cds. just seeing my options here if anyone has some advise.

Hi all, anyone recommend a good brand for a nice bolt dress up kit in chrome blue? Titanium bolt replacement. Not sure what company to go with for a reasonable price. thanks

They look good from the side though … but not back…

Yeah I wouldn’t recommend them. I have them on mine and the fitment is horrible. I’m a perfectionist and u cant the material to bend and adapt flush. Here are photos of mine I have … after two fittings.

That is correct. My advice would be to get the top secret ones as they are top notch quality … I have them on my car now. That is for the rear spat n1 style ones.

Nice just got in contact with them and thanks. 550 usd for the replica. Hoping they are top notch quality in abs material it seems. Have u worked with them before? ETA 3-4 months for everyone that wants to know.

So your saying I should hold off on sourcing the originals. Any more specific timeline from the inside man? ... We talking a month or two tops? And thanks

I’m sure this has been discussed many times. But anyone have any or know someone that is selling genuine N1 rear pods? I’m still shocked no one replicates these yet. Looking to buy some. Added a photo of the part. 👍🏻

And yes would be going to tomei Japan for sure as it’s closer to me …

Yeah I heard the same. Might be hard to order one. But then I guess can go to hks or go to a more expensive n1 block with tomei. Guess will jump the hurdle once I get there next upgrade around. I can’t get work done in the states as the lead time will take for ever on top of shipping to Hong Kong.

This is what I was looking at next: https://www.z1motorsports.com/engines/tomei/tomei-rb26-28l-short-block-assemblies-p-45479.html as we can’t bore the cylinders out in hk so better just buy the whole lot in one and install then retune. Everyone saying the weak link are the bolts holding the rods together. I already did valve springs, arp head bolts, hks racing coils, nismo fuel pumps and pressure regulators, injectors etc for the top of the engine.

My whp was 418whp and 518hp crank on 98 octane fuel. So decent numbers.

Will look into the helical front diff thanks. Sounds like everyone just says keep the rear as is. 👍🏻

I think the figures are pretty accurate as all my other cars are around the right hp readings as have done on multiple dynoes. However they are rwd cars so might mean the difference. I am running every possible hks part also and a str exhaust … all new ecu. The mod list is endless. 😂 I’m ready for stroker and big turbo if I go that route.

Will mainly be steering the car as tracking it in China would reduce its value a lot and mines a near mint condition v spec 2. Just weighing out the options for the next improvement. Thanks

Thanks for the info. With the 2.8L stroker kit what would be the best single turbo setup for around 700-750 drivable horsepower? As I think after that it’s going to be very aggressive power delivery.

Please let me know how the quaife on the front goes… thanks

Great info guys thanks alot …

Hi all, was wondering anyone upgrade these and what are their opinions? Worth the time to install for daily driver or just helpful for track cars. Or should just got with a full r34 transmission 6 speed swap. Are the lsd really neccessary with horse power over 600hp? Thanks

Hi all, Been working on my hks ss turbo setup and making around 540hp without doing a 2.8L stroker upgrade. I feel this is a safe level with the weak link rod screw bolts I heard. What is everyone else putting out safely? I’m running 1.4 bar right now max on 98. I think with the tomei stroker kit I will be able to max the turbos out at around 650hp crank safely. My friends putting down 525whp with the garret 7s and stroker kit already. What’s everyone’s thoughts? I have added my first dyno runs yesterday that I recorded. Curve is super smooth with horse power delivery with twins. Thanks

Yes that sounds right. Cars currently in the shop for the engine work. Will need to remeasure .. but yes I think I must be targeting 45cm from fender.
