awesome to hear. Cams should wake that fj20 nice and early now. Im looking forward to riding in and featuring it :D

Mine will be stock until it is registered , then I think it will be something like wolf 3d and turbo / injectors / gate etc R32 brakes. Basically whatever

Ant and Steve reconmend for my needs. Ive got cage already so it gives me a good base for some track work.

Begins this week. might cover it on the site.

hey people,

thought id hop onto this whopper thread too! my eyes are literally stinging after reading it all! haha that and its 2:30am haha

i just got a red & black 83 DR30 RS Coupe. mods wise it has strut brace, greddy boost relief valve, 15" watanabe's, KYB shocks and super low springs of some sort (specialy at the back haha), cat-back exhaust with huuuuge muffler (5.25" tip lol), and small Trust FMIC kit (with like 1m of piping to the inlet too haha 80s a/m stuff). oh and optional front rubber lip =]

ive had it a couple of weeks, and already got about 5000$ worth of spending planned haha big fuel pump, hybrid cooler & custom piping, some minor rust fixing and bodywork & new seals everywhere,& new rear shocks!

has 219rwhp as is on 0.9bar, but hoping will realy benefit from pump and bigger cooler (With much shorter inlet piping)

this is a good thread, got some interesting stuff from it. not much on shockies though, coz im wondering what to change mine to (thinking i stick with KYB but get some AGX adjustables?? not sure)

neway, il keep adding wat i can! haha

ARRGHHHHH WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO THOSE DR'S!!! They are fugly!!! How could they do that to a perfectly good car!!!

TJ i am Dattoboy in IRC bro :P:D My mate is starting his as well in the next couple of weeks let ya know how he's going with it....

[ant]- welcome to this monster, good to see another rs in the red and black! what nose dose yours have? (iron mask or does it have a grill), we did have a lot of info on shockies, struts and brake upgrades but lost about 3 pages/65 posts which seem to cover all this!

    • These are small points I should actually add to my original post. GKtech makes an extended slave line for this conversion. It's what I use, and it works well. You'll also need a CD009 slave cylinder.  S/R Chassis Z33/Z34 Conversion braided clutch line As for transmission sensors, you'll need to both extend the wiring and replace the connectors. I can't recall which is which, but one is your neutral switch and the other the reverse switch. As they are just switches, just test for continuity with your transmission in neutral or reverse to figure out which is which. Connectors:  VQ35 neutral Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties VQ35 Reverse Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties 
    • I’ll try and see it could be the release bearing. As for the 4th gear grind maybe clutch doesn’t disengage properly cause it is slightly like very slightly hard to go into first could be due to the slab cylinder pin being short uni clutch is a twin plate.   Ive attached some assembly photos hopefully you can open the link and see maybe detect what’s wrong https://share.icloud.com/photos/0dc2YvW__Hl6jl-l2_0jejjpg https://share.icloud.com/photos/09e0jkWOK-vP48c1cfY6u3ViA https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b4rDmh5R7pK7fb1VtND73a3g https://share.icloud.com/photos/05eeUi_6dC4DVi80jOUYDgb0g https://share.icloud.com/photos/06335TgY1XxyIJal_wkdQLhzw
    • Yeah for sure that is peddle adjustment 
    • What are your thoughts on this after having it for a while, worth getting?
    • Downshifts are harder on transmissions than upshifts, the input shaft naturally slows down once disconnected from the engine so the synchros aren't doing all the work. There's no "natural" tendency for an input shaft to increase RPM. Something is not right there, I don't have a great answer on what. You can try a dedicated GL4 75W90, I plan to switch to Motorcraft XT-M5-QS which is supposedly a very good 75W90 for NB Miatas which have a weirdly sensitive transmission from the factory. I would chase down why your clutch is making a hissing noise, that's not normal. It might be no big deal but in the absence of anything else to investigate I would look at that.
