Silent Shadow

congrats man! You've been looking for the right car for like over a year now right?

just out of interest, how much did she go for?

bit of a....shitter? lol

Yea im running a thermo fan bro. The engine fan drove me nuts! It was louder than the exhaust ay. Dont worry about tyre pressures too much. 35 should be fine seriously. And when i put my silvia on the dyno, i had to tell the operator what rpm he did on the runs. That way he was not liable for blowing up the engine by over-revving.

Man i was so close to dyno-ing mine last year. Keen to see what you get! Mine has a very obvious power drop around the 5.5-6k mark. Well not a power drop, it just doesnt pull any harder. And the tappets start to sound loud around 6.5k rpm. So yea i wouldnt bother goin any more than that personally. Post vid and dyno sheet for sure man. And have fun!

As far as i know yes. But someone please correct me if im wrong. Another thing that happened to me is i kept driving it till the battery went flat so probably avoid doing that if possible lol. It's a pain in the ass.

Sounds like an alternator issue mate. When mine blew up my dash lit up like a christmas tree. Found a replacement at the wreckers off another l series motor for cheap and has been fine for almost 2 years.

Yea +1 for pics and a review of some sort

man things always go wrong right before the gig. Hate that shit! Hope you get it all sorted in time brother.

Those fully hectik clip-on chromies and mad fusion sticker would have to be worth at least $20. Maybe $25.50 for the whole car?

Dude car looks HOT!!! Definately keep it like that :-)

im pretty sure the rb26 3ltr kit is 17-18k so yea 10k+ for the FJ kit is believable. At least you know that shit would be bulletproof!

Dennis isnt very people friendly lol

93 pages 2770 posts that's probably gotta take the record for most EPIC build thread ever???? just spent about an hour reading random parts of this thread. i could never match his dedication to his car. absolutely incredible attention to detail! it does kinda show that even if you put massive bucks and countless hours into hotting up your L-series motor you still get problems and not a lot of satisfaction (his words not mine!). and yes i know that will offend some viewers lol. if my c210 coupe was gunna get a power increase at the wheels, it would be coming from an RB conversion and nothing else. just my opinion :-)

of course it isnt you. like as if anyone would make an alias and hate on themselves lol

ahhh the old alias trick lol. I'd laugh even harder if mods check the IP and do a name and shame.

is that the monter bov i sold ya? Pretty sure it's the size of my wastegate on my silvia lol

that's relatively cheap for the result imo. Good stuff! How's the supercharger mission goin?

what did the paint job set you back if you dont mind me asking?

hells yes man. What wheels you goin for??

Mmmmmm..... Shiny......

are you a brizzy local mate? would love to chat sometime about how you did some of those mods to the c210.

This thread needs more pics

yea i got my centre garnish through jesse. very good communication!

i got the series 1 chromes. naturally they attract a much higher cost than the s2. mainly because there's a shitload more s2 lights for sale! it took me like a year and a half to own s1 lights and i passed off about 10 opportunities to buy s2's in that time. that pic is the sex btw lol.
