So hi,

Car is in the shop having all the engine mods done, and I get it back on Thursday.

Meanwhile I have some stuff to go on, and id like to not have to stop half way thru cos I cant work something out.

Tail lights - I've had a quick squiz and it seems getting the inside hatch panel out might be tricky, anyone know where all the bolts are?

Roof Racks - How do I get them off? I want to respray them

Outside door trims - Want to paint these too, whats the best way to get them off?

Weather shields - Same again, how to get them off?

On a side note, Ill be mucking around making some eyelids too, I'll be making a few styles to see what I like, any left over will likely be thrown up on here. What looks good?

Stag is a S1.

Thanks!

Rear tails for the outer ones theirs two nuts you can see when the tail gate is open, Undo these then the lights pull out with alot of force (theirs these plastic locating lugs holding them in) Then u have to remove half of the inside hatch panel. Its not that hard mate just look at it and you will work it out.

Weather shields are on with clips and an adhesive.

Weatherstrips - best to remove side glass first - use pick or small screwdriver to remove plastics clips from inside door.

Outside Door moulds - glued on and locators(no clips) - pull hard

Roof racks - bolted and doudle sided tape - remove headlining to access bolts - Be careful!! (cast alloy)

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂

      Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?

      Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges.

      UniClutch

      I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.

      Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
