Heres some pics of my new car i'm getting in a few weeks, its a 2008 Evo X TC-SST MR Edition has all the cool shit on Sat Nav, BBS Wheels, Two Piece Brembo's, Bilstein Shocks, Leather Recaro Seats etc. I'm going with the black on black theme with carbon fibre everywhere and I already have the first few mods written out on a list, firstly will be a set of Rays Volk CE28N 19x9.5 +22 in Black (bonus as the evo x shares same offsets as the GTR's), a set of Coilovers probably Tein Monoflex's and Tomei Titanium Cat Back Exhaust. Also we are going to be Mackay's Offical Sucrogen E85 dealer and will be a performance parts dealer aswell, not to keen on building other peoples cars but if they pay handsomely then ill think about it. Our shop is called RBE - Race Bred Enterprises (Its a shit name my brother chose it) so if you's need some awesome fuel give us a bell, we should be fully operational very soon.

Anyways here's some pics:

Nice. Evos aren't really my thing but they are a good car. Looks tidy anyway, good buy by the looks of it

You can't have TWO cars better then all of ours so no mods :P

When you say you will be doing performance parts, how big a range is this. I kinda want to find a HKS GT2835 Pro S to replace my KAI as it's not really living up to the Pro S specs as it was supposed to. Otherwise might ask HKS if putting a .8 rear on it might give me the results I want

E85 will be a bonus :) just wish it was readily available so I could have an E85 tune to run everyday

  • 2 weeks later...

Lol i could have told u that Cal adjustable arms are the go so easy to adjust. As for the business really only wanna stick with the major imports like skyline,supras,evo etc and specialise in RB engines. I have enough project cars to keep me occupied for the rest of the year.

So after 2 years you finally started it? haha

Yeah if you want.... But I guess it will have to wait a week or two unless you want to do it thursday afternoon

I cant believe how much toe in I have a the rear of my car now lol. Hopefully the wheel alignment goes good, they said they could adjust camber bushes so they better not turn around and say "oh we've never done them before" or I will get super angry lol

I can wait a week or so, haha. I've got all the material and just waiting for the base plates to be Laser Cut and then it's just a matter of test fit and weld. After this there is going to be a one peice air box and radiator diffuser... thingy.

    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
    • I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
    • Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?
    • Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.
    • Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.
