  1. cant watch video yet. so its not finished? whats the car designed for?
  2. Because I trust import monster with more than my money #diversifyyobondsnegro
  3. Jap only market. Used to be really difficult as a foreigner to buy jap shares years ago but I think it's a bit easier now.
  4. new mighty car mods vid makes me excited for pulsar soon(ish). mainly because they sound similar-ish.
  5. i guess you would be spoilt for choice hunting for an RX8 with no engine in it? look forward to updates.
  6. Things are starting to roll again with this car... Tackled the fuel lines, and for the sake of convenience in trying to mate-up the factor hard lines, a beefy aeromotive fuel filter, SARD FPR and the factory fuel rail I just went with quality 8mm (5/16") biofuel-rated hose. Few speedflow fittings later and it was sorted. I looked into the sausage-style fuel filters and they were too long and hard to fit in the engine bay. Too much effort trying to mount it under the car too, so settled for the can-style with a 10 micron filter. Its a big bastard so was fiddly making up a mount for it. Then it was off to Havoc Fabrication, who did a good job of sorting a lot of the remaining To Do List. Distributor delete cover: Catch can (still need to make up the hoses) Intake pipe. GTX28 compressor is 80mm, dodges the radiator hose then goes to 4". Apparently had good results with that el cheapo pod filter and 4" to 3" pipe. I dunno, we'll see how it goes. Mounted fuel pressure sensor to the SARD fuel regulator, had to tap out a brass fitting I sourced from Pirtek. Hopefully no leaks! Mounted to the firewall. and this is where we're up to now. just missing catch can hoses then engine bay is done. I damaged all the rubber ends on the CDI pencil coils while doing test fits and then the rubber ends getting trapped in the spark plug well. Grabbed some rubber ends from a wrecked SSS and have glued them onto the coils. Used like an epoxy super glue or something, should do fine hopefully. New intercooler piping dodges the tow hook a lot better than the old one (once tightened it doesnt touch the piping), but ideally i would like the hook to poke out infront of the bumper. I haven't really looked at whats available on ebay to fit hondas and what not just yet. I suspect the current one fitted is off an N14 as the N15 hooks dont have the bend in it. Finally I had some chrome-orange indicator bulbs lying around so chucked them in. yay no more orange.
  7. y'all can have your shares and $800k investments, all i need is an income that can support me and help fund the wanky-est of VIP accessories. you could have a multi-million dollar car, but it wont have a slot for medium or large maccas chips or croc-skin benches to rest your sunnies. http://www.garson.co.jp/english/interior_i/e_potato_h.html Swarovski-approved colour diamonds encrusted into just about everything. car rubbish bins, seat covers, dash mats, gear knobs, licence plate surrounds, valve caps. and just like Junction Produce, to become a distributor for their products you need to "buy" into the company first (Junction Produce is like somewhere between $5k-15kUSD).
  8. 33R's were like 22-25k before I bought the pulsar, that was only 3-4 years ago. #noregrets
  9. the engines are more common in the US and therefore more people tinkering with them over there. There seems to be lots of common problems with the Infiniti M45 motors, but I don't think they would matter too much on a purpose built motor. Definitely not a small motor but I don't know how it compares to LS.
  10. Do ads disappear if you're a supporter? Ads still in the app regardless but they're not intrusive.
  11. ^ those are things im going to have to work out. for starters, 59,000 yen gets you two sets (reversed design) i only have one pipe so will see if I can buy one only. apparently its 250mm wide so need to see if my recess is that wide or how much it will cost to make it larger (and not ugly). apparently the trick to unsymmetrical tips is to have it match the slope of the tail lights on that side... not sure how that works but going to look into it.
  12. im sure you Philistines are going to hate on this, but finally found companies in japan that do styles that I had in mind. behold: http://www.sensebrand.jp/cutter/cress.html?height=530&width=640
  13. i just realised that my sig is gone ;( got gloria stereo running last night. not tuned yet, but already sounds good. keen to hear how much effect the deadening has. its a shame a good stereo doesnt stand out like a bad stereo does, teach the falcon owner across the road that bass should not be heard only in rattles when outside the car.
  14. Enough about math, I think we can all agree parliament needs more mass debates. Huehuehueue
  15. has the seller mentioned if the car was used on the track or motorkhana/hill climbs? generally people only mount fire extinguishers at the front if required for a track event.
  16. Same. Subscription is way too much. Not as painful if bought on special but not worth it to me.
  17. Yeah that. You'd think variety would be a good thing, but if it just causes squabbling and delays kind of makes you wonder what they aim to achieve as a group. I wonder what parliament would be like if they had KPI's and efficiency metering statistics available for election time...
  18. I can't get over how the massive majority of people still voted for labor or liberal. Makes that big ass house of representatives sheet a waste of time/effort/paper/ink/freedom
  19. f*kin looool also, im living alone. its nice but also very unexciting. and promotes laziness.
  20. awesome, im glad people care about Nissans that arent just GTR's.
