ah cheers man will check it out.. its not that i like building motors for fun. ive just always wanted to build a motor haha.. finally got around to fittin my new front bar up. can anyone tell me why the original bar on my car didnt have the side mount vent? the bar i have on now does and seems a little chunkier. and deffinately didnt have to cut half as much out of it to fit the bar on with the cooler. pics later.

sorry for repost. but im loving this car. also what is and where can i get that front lip. ive been told its probs the club s lip? if so does anyone have a part number for it from nissan? and so this isnt a completely useless post my car as it sits currently now that it has real suspension and a real gear box, haha

Ok so now that ive got the drivetrain and stuff sorted. ive been wanting to build a motor for a while and now im having issues deciding on what to do. im only lookin for about 220rwkw. so not really enough to justify doin an engine swap to a 25 or anythin. although id love to have a 26 in there. its just not worth it. so i was plannin on stroking out an rb20 to put into my hr31. but after further research what i was plannin on doin it gonna be pointless. 20 block std, 25 crank and rods. and 20 pistons std. would give me f**k all extra capacity. and just cause clearance issues. so what do people recommend in the way of buildin a 20. i dont need to do anythin to the silvertop thats in the car currently. but i just want to put a fresh motor in so that i know i wont have to pull it out any time soon because its broken. i was thinkin higher comp pistons, cams and a 2871r. ideas/opinions?
-
haha yeah definately!! its actually a bit tricky to get into haha. because i sit quite close to the wheel. will be better when i get some decent seats.

ok so after literally an entire week. the laurel is actually back on the ground. drives great. coilies feel awesome. need to work out a few things with the ride height tho. and figure out why my wheel bearings are gettin hot. im hopin its because they are new and are just not loosened up yet... but anyways. we had used the wrong thrust bearing so saturday pulled the box back out and swapped it over. still need to rebleed the clutch and brakes as they are a little soft. but other then that its awesome.... f**kin hard to get in and out of tho haha. pics
-
clutch is brand new exedy, clutch is properly bleed has awesome feel. manual spigot is used. only thing is like i said the pedal has alot of free play..
-
AAh cheers man. got it sorted tonight. i actually got ceffy cables by the looks because they all joined up nicely. New problem is the clutch wont disengage. gearbox back off on Saturday. I've had enough of this car already Haha. Im hoping is the thrust bearing. only thing i can say is that about half of the pedal travel is free play. Any ideas?
-
any advice on makin the handbrake fit? gonna do the hand brake tonight and i cant see any mountin bolts or even where the cable is ment to run.... or is it just a case of drill and bolt and cut? and hope shit fits?

so this saturday with the help of a few mates and the use of my mates shed we starting the laurels make over. last picture of the laurel bein a boring auto 4x4 fitment on rear... tire is hard up against rear bar.. been told traction arms will fix this? luke cutting the dust shield so that the r33 discs would fit. f**king autospastic!!! at this point we ran into some issues. namely this snapped one of the flywheel bolts.. was strange it cracked and started to undo then just got tight and snapped with little pressure. $90 and 2 days later (this happened at 8 pm saturday night and the soonest i could get someone out to fix it was monday night at 7) its currently still sittin on jack stands as im now struggling with the f**kin auto spigot bush haha. cant get the bastard out for the life of me so decided to call it a night and get back into it tonight when im not pissed off haha. oh and had to say good bye to the auto trans. yes thats 3rd gear haha. click this. its a vid

Ok so, couple months back some moron thought itd be a great idea to crash into my 31. this was the result. basically I was going to fix it but after running around finding parts, I send it to all type crash who quoted me around $4k plus panels, and said that they would need to straighten both of the chassis rails, and the passenger side strut tower. They then said that even after that it'd most likely not drive straight anyway. That plus the fact that there was a substantial amount of rust in the passenger side floor made my decision to strip it pretty easy. So after stripping it out and getting some money together I messaged an old mate from school and found out that he still had his c33, and funnily enough had just decided to sell it. its basically stock. when I got it, it had some aids 16" wheels the worlds oldest sony head unit which constantly said it was a failure a cat back exhaust front bar cut up for a front mount. and rsr front and rear strut braces. oh and its auto I've only had it a week and already spent a bit on it. put the volks from the coupe on it. (only untill I get my new wheels) bought a hybrid fmic kit from my mate MTQ got a set of late model tail lights boost tap and a couple little things. the stainless turbo back exhaust from the coupe is goin to be modified to fit the laurel. and I have some coil overs coming with the wheels. basic plans will be much the same as the coupe 5 stud conversion r33 brakes manual conversion coil overs wheels exhaust as comfortable as it is currently im gonna put a pair of brides in it. and a decent stereo. Ill update as I get more parts or just nice pics. pics work euroline dh 18x9 +21 and 18x10+18 hoping these will fit without to much gaurd love required haha. parts list so far includes brand new emotions coil overs from my mate matt (angry industries) work eurolines r33 brakes front and rear with rda slotted rotors and ebc green pads front n rear 5 stud hub conversion pair of recaro seat rails. momo 4 spoke steering wheel new front bar (because the one on the car is butchered by previous owner haha) goin to modify the stainless turbo back exhaust off my hr31 coupe in the next few weeks. got a set of late model tail lights and the garnish to suit cheers Danny
