  1. NM, found them on your FB. Doesn't show me where you put everything though.
  2. No tubs there. You got some easily accessible pics of your bay?
  3. Well bloody hell that all sounds like a lot of work. I know it "had" about 8deg of castor in it and it "Had" -3.5 camber but the camber especially will be out now with extended LCAs (I left the lock stops off also...) What did you mean by "Obviously you've dealt with the inner shoulder on control arm already"
  4. This update only on SAU because forums are the best for build threads so there will always be some extra info/details etc here. Bit of fiddling last night, wheels on up front, car movable again and back on hoist trying to work out if I actually need these tubs or not, having a hard time figuring it out (tubs are a lot of work and requires removal/change of lots of stuff in the bay too). Dale reckons I need at least 75mm of travel so I can try and work back off that, a full lock to lock saw minor contact front and rear on the plastic guard liner/quarter panel/body kit but otherwise nothing major. That was all static though, not under compression. I got them as I was told I would def need them for these size tyres so maybe I am underestimating how hard the car will lean on slicks. Also, ordered gktech castor arm braces and the bar to make my own nismo power brace thing to help resist chassis movement. I am planning on having the cage come through the firewall to the shock towers also. I'm waiting on ATP to come back to me as I assume I just have to put pressure on the tub and tack it in to place, but that profile looks very different! Added pic of his completed tubs for context.
  5. How bout now 😍 Just collected, the other 2 are going to a mate for test fitting.
  6. Check the fitment on this rice boi ❤️ Could have gotten away with +20 in the rear for sure but wanted square rims and needed +0 for that epic front coilover clearance - the +20s i tested barely had 2-3mm and +10 would only work with mild camber. We'll see if we get away with those 50mm flares or wider guards - I have tubs for the front also. Oh and my LCAs went in perfect and have *perfect* clearance for tools on the swaybar/castor nuts.
  7. Cheers, im thinking white or silver. I'd really prefer silver because that's my jam but a white car will work better with the NCR logo and some vinyls I think.
  8. Thanks dude, I like them alot and being able yo go custom size is wicked, hopefully 0 offset fits 😅
  9. Get hype! Box says test fit first so I'll do that before slicks go on.
  10. Oh herro.... No glamour pics til I can get in to the office and get them out of the box, I may have already had a sneaky pic sent from inside...
  11. Juicy updates time. Invested in a brass wire grinder disc and got to work stripping the paint off the LCAs then put the hoist to good use and rattle canned them satin black. In traditional fashion, I rushed/went a bit hard in some spots so there will be no close ups of the runs OK 😅 Hunted around to find some new boots for the ball joint as 1 had split, the metal ring they come with is just a smidge big so it unseats when the ball joint moves full sweep, the old ones did this too. What have others done in this situation? The lip on the ball joint itself is not fantastic so I was thinking some fine gauge wire/safety wire to wrap/twist? I've also included a pic of the original boot. Also, My wheels are arriving in the office today, but I'm working from home with a sick child sad reacts all all round. I've also got a drill bit coming to do the front hubs so I can fit rotors and calipers properly. Oh and here's another head pic update, Dale said he just had to tidy up above and below where the divider meets the roof/floor.
  12. That was my reaction when I looked at pricing. Given I am about to replace my master, is it worth me trying to implement basic Nissan ABS? I was also under the impression it was not suitable for motorsport. I'm just going to a BM57 to match the 350z Brembos - the car has never had ABS.
  13. The long block got a bit carried away but the rest will be budget racing at its best, No Crust if you will I looked at the ABS kit costs.... that can wait for another refresh lol
  14. Casual updates worth 50k... you know, just casually... lol Awesome stuff mate, that ABS seems to be the hot ticket item for all the TA bois lately.
  15. 350z brembos on 2 piece HFM rotors. Did not clear old banger Volk Emu shit offset 17x8s up front. No surprise there. I sold the 17x9s as they were 4 stud.
  16. Lol no not at all, I'm only excited because they're new and can finally have wheels and calipers on as my old 17s dont clear the calipers. Still a budget bitch with budget wheels.
  17. Gotta admit it does generate a little excitement. Oh and guess who's wheels are coming early...
  18. Some before and after of the CNC'd and polished chambers. Plus some pics showing the throat work Dale has done on the exhaust ports. Head maybe finished this weekend???
  19. A mate said the previous welds looked a little cold and wanted me to try push instead of pull, seems to have been hotter and he was happier with that. One more gusset to go. Rims have been made and are awaiting paint and freight.
  20. I regret saying it was too cool for me... When what I meant was it is too expensive and unnecessary for my needs. Everything is crap 💖
  21. Ahh ok. Re MoTeC I just assume it's mega dollars, I'm not a big baller flush with crypto gains so I tend to look for value for money options, even the GT-R was done "sensibly" imo. That said, it's all based on an assumption that the MoTeC gear is expensive, no stigma, just assumption about costs, nothing more.
  22. What's M1 mean? I was looking at the Powertune dash but by their own admission it's not good for track use/lap timing. Could still run race chrono on the phone etc, but I'd rather all data be in place so I'm looking at Aim instead.
