this is my dream 32 4 door. except it would have to have a stock GTR kit all over it. even the stock rims finish it off nicely.

if i got around to it id make the rear wide body spec like the GTR thoe. not easy when you have a door to include.

Stock kit going on next month :P and the rear is rolled as far as you can take a 4 door. If you saw how much addon rear guards were for 4 doors, you'd probably choke ;). Although you can get them :(.

Meisters weren't mine and long gone :).

Vivagarge has the rear wide quarters for a 4 door

$480 for both sides

its 4 pieces one on quarter and one on door on each side

they arre 25mm wider

i had seen a set once on yahoo actions but that was it. but 25mm is hardly enough to notice.

i think the best would be to buy the gts to GTR rear guards off car mate. they only go on the lower half of the body work just like the GTR and mate that suit a 4 door.

anyway good luck with it.

While I wait for the GTR bar to go on with Grill (woot finally) I thought I might post an update about the car. Recently got the car tuned down at Status in Victoria and it went from 200rwkw to 245rwkw. Apparently one of the, if not the, highest power out of a 'stock' 26 at 14psi Status has seen :P.

I have cam gears sitting on the passenger seat but was recommended that they are largely a waste of time. And it's getting a lot more road time now :). Also forgot to mention I have since put a Nismo super coppermix twin plate in, awesome clutch.

No pics of the interior atm because it's sort of unfinished. And the engine bay isn't particularly exciting because i've gone out of my way to make it stock looking (well except that the covers are all painted blue :blink:). Will try and get something though.

Last weekend at the top of buller sub 3 degree weather fresh after a detail.

Thought I might give an update.

Car has been good, just fixed up a few annoyances like the power steering setup and mounted the gauges. I've put some brembos on and 33R rims to clear them.

Also transferred a few goodies over to the daily as things get updated :).

    • Oh and my rear arms may need some attention too.    
    • Bushings are almost done. Check the date stamp 😂 these are likely the original bushings with 27 years and 243ks on them.     Was too dark to get a pic of the worst one.
    • Porous blocks are a known issue on something like a Porsche M96, it's not really something I've ever heard of on an RB26. It's possible what people thought was a "porous block" was really a cracked block that they just didn't spot the crack on.
    • This is a controversial subject really, the whole power vs fun thing I mean And this is the main reason I got back into a MX5 Of the last few notable daily cars I've owned whilst I have frequented SAU R33 GTS-t: fun, but because I'm a idiot I modified well past a reliable fun car and ended up hating it, although that was my fault because I tried to have a daily cruiser and race car all in one, the family called it the sometimes car, because sometimes it was working, sometimes it was broken, gladly sold it NB MX5: brilliant car, thrashed the Bejebus out of it, but, again, was stupid and deleted the air con, power steering and stripped the interior out, whilst still fun, and reliable, and super cheap on consumables, it was not a fun place to be going on long cruises, I did love it, but basically every family member hated going anywhere in it, sadly sold it 2015 WRX STI: soulless thing that looked like your average Kia sedan and had that horrible boxer engine with glass ringlands, the family did like it though, that thing was one of my stupidest purchases and I still regret it 2017 Toyota 86: 😪 if I didn't crash it, I would probably still have it, it was a fun little thing, even with that horrible boxer engine, the family did like it, the only reason I didn't get another 86, or, BRZ was the boxer engine, I should have learnt after owning the STI, but I'm a idiot VX SS: great cruiser, fits the whole family, and was fast as.....in a straight line, but a big fat thing, so no enjoyment throwing it around corners, the family was unimpressed with the whole boganness of if, but they did admit it was a comfy place to sit on long cruises As for the NC, I feel it is perfect for what I want, or need out of of a car, whether I'm cruising the Hwy, back roads, twisties or peak hour traffic, the Mrs doesn't mind driving it either, or cruising in it as well, although she does bump her head of the roof nearly every time she gets in, which is farking hilarious, and the kids love taking it for a thrash as well So basically, I've had constantly more fun, and way less headache and heartache, both on the track and on the street, in low powered cars,  go figure.....LOL One thing though, the Mrs has stated that the cams have made the exhaust sound much louder, which they have, but it doesn't bother me, in fact, I actually like it, but, to negate any future comments from the Minister for War and Finances I may look at some changes to the rear muffler set-up to drop the volume down a tad to appease her when we are out and about in it
    • You will need to extend the turbo inlet pipe somehow, which could/might be done with silicone/rubber pipe, but might need steelwork, depending on your intake. And you will need to change the pipework on the outlet in teh same way, but this is more likely to need steelwork.
