Nah it turns too well. It is very twitchy up front. That and it bounces over the road with all the uneven surfaces in the mountains.

Sounds like it could have some epic toe out

think i might have to cut down my drinking.....

nnnaaaaahhhhh

It wouldn't suprise me if it did. I'm getting more circlip grooves machined into the bilsteins so I'll be able to lower to rear more once the suspension is in ill get a wheel allignment done.

dude its a 31 - lower it with an angle grinder

I was going to and I had everything ready to go on Sunday but when I got the springs off I found that they had the same circlip height adjustment as the GTR so I may aswell get it done properly. Saves it handling like a piece of shit and destroying decent shocks.

So the 31 has number plates now. I drove it home through the mountains

YES YES YES YES

Same as before. It doesnt go off the scale it just stays at like 3/4

just a thought - what about picking up an aftermarket water temp guage??

when my 180 decided to spit out its heater hoses at a track day my water guage jumped to 110degrees - whereas my guage on the dash was at like 3/4 - surely it should have been maxing out :down:

Oh is that all? That's only...90? that's no biggie :) just pretend it's not lying :down:

and is that running coolant or water to get so hot you can smell it?

On a 31 3/4 could mean anything from 45deg to 245deg :down:

Bah Colin DID get his licence back before i got my car back :( ha ha

Don't worry, he'll lose it again before you get your car back too :)

will be getting some gauges for eventually. I dont trust the standard ones at all.

Combination of both really.

    • Stock ECU has compensation, you won't damage the engine. Personally I recommend getting an acceptable catalytic converter, it doesn't need to be OEM and super expensive but a cheap universal one to keep it from being super obnoxious to be around. Decatted cars smell pretty awful.
    • Correction. Ignition was on before, but I guess the car had to be running for it to work. 
    • The stock ECU won't care. The gains from Nistuning the ECU and then "optimising" the fuel and ignition tables will be about 2 more HP.
    • Appreciate the feedback. It is street car, but not a daily. Last week I got a quote from a good exhaust shop for a decat, one which is bolt-on, bolt-off to be easily replaceable. I got quoted for around €150. I usually do push the motor, but I wasn't in this case to make sure that no damage is done until I get the cat sorted. I think it's best to also ask the exhaust shop for the other option and see what they can do. If (big if) I were to decat though, would it be best to tune the car or would the stock ECU handle it? As far as I know, the stock ECU is not tunable and that would require additional purchases.
    • As above, definitely bash it or get it replaced with a high flow unit.
