They are carbon fibre ducts made by Border Racing Japan. I painted them matt black as they had heaps of stone chips.

They are functional in the way that my HKS oil cooler sits behind the passenger side duct, I've also cut a square hole out of the guard liner so the air comes in through the duct, passes through the oil cooler and out the back through the hole in the guard liner. Made a heap of difference to oil temps on the track.

Well spotted, been to heaps of WRX days, one of the more organised clubs in regards to the way they run their days. Got 1st place overall in the Skyline class back in 2007.

Enough of the bragging... :)

No ducting to the intercooler or radiator, doesn't seem to need it. Although a little ducting wouldn't hurt...

omg loving the skylines in this thread!!! i want more moneys!!!!

Heres my 98 Gtst 40th anniversary midnight purple.

only had her 6 weeks!!! pretty much bone stock except the hks mushroom filter an a cheap hks style bov ( soon to be replaced )

Will be getting a full turboback exhaust and a frontmount over the next couple of months too.

That 40th Anniversary looked a lot like mine when I first got it. A lot has changed :)

I think there is even a 40th ann. thread going on somewhere too.

Yeah i love what you've done with yours.

I REALLY want to get some 34GTR wheels for mine i think they look the sex!

Gonna get GTR wing, skirts and front bumper for mine sometime this year.

Not because i wanto fool people into thinking its a GTR just because i love the look and cant afford a GTR at the mo.

No GTR poser badges as that's just an insult and not fair on the people that have actually forked out for one. :P

Brockas - Noticed you have Alcons aswell, which model/size are they???

Hey mate, they are billet Alcon XF calipers off NASCAR cars a few years back.

They lock a tyre at 140km/h.

I'm actually looking to downgrade, they are almost too powerful for my limited driving skill!

That Orange 33 3 posts above needs some serious lowering...

otherwise looks nice...

@Rav3nz...get rid of that Mushroom pod dude..

they dont filter good. Get an Apexi one.

There is a thread somewhere with the results of various pods, Apexi came ontop!

Really? Sh!t it came with the car but it was dirty as so i just forked out $80 getting a new blanket for it.

Like is it actually bad for the car or does the apexi just filter a little bit better? if its ALOT better then ill buy one next pay lol

I had an apexi on my old 34 gtt and really liked it but yeh this came with the car.

if its not a biggie then ill wait an just get my zorst and front mount and change the filter to an apexi later when this one gets dirty.

It's fine. The only downside is the foam ones start disintegrating with age and wear and little bits of foam end up going into the airflow metre/turbo. However if it is brand new it'll be fine for quite a long time, the HKS ones are decent enough.

Nice work, are they the endurance caliper? Do they take a 36mm thick rotor and 30 mm thick pads?

Do you still run ABS? I can get mine to lock up for a tenth of a second before ABS kicks in and does its thing. Thats running RE55s tyres...

Like the pic in your sig, looks familiar....

    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
    • Foreshadowing was never so easy.
    • The ones in brackets are the first stages of tightening. I usually aim for the middle of the range. They give a range because it's actually not that critical to hit exactly the right bolt tension. Enough is enough, and too much is too much, and the range given is inside that range. Half of the bolts in the suspension are problematic for putting a torque wrench on anyway, so just get done up to mechanic tight  and spanner checked a week later.
