LOL!

So you money to blow on plates and sound systems but not buy a decent set of wheels.

LOL...

1) I already owned the sound system. I've been collecting bits and pieces for over 2 years. $4000RRP+ of shit :yes:

2) I didn't pay for the plates. They were a gift.

3) I did buy a decent set of wheels. SSR SP1s biatch! Anything that Hamish suggests must be good haha

When did you get the wheels?

Are those SSR's you suggested JDM enough? :thanks:

What else do I need to make it "proper f**kin JDM"?? :yes:

if it's equipped with Japanese Domestic Market parts, then it's JDM. Unfortunately knobjockeys these days associate JDM with japanese style instead of japanese parts, so if you want to be proper f**king JDM it better look like one of these:

That's the front bar I'm getting!

It took me some serious searching (2 years to find one) but I'll probably be the only person in VIC with one.

The only other one I know of in Australia is MR2QIK in Sydney.

That's only through forums though. Could be some non-forum people with that bar.

we imported a red one and a white one with that bar back in the 15 year rule days. Guy in Reservoir bought the white one.

Lucky kent.

That's how MR2QIK got his front bar. The car came with it when imported.

I could probably make some good money if I made a mold and sold copies but then it wouldn't be special anymore :yes:

been there, done that. no you wouldn't. How do you think people got the BN Sport widebody kits for R32's?

i was out there last night.... pity you didn't post that up 12 hours ago fool!

damn.

didn't some one make a copy of that kit without you knowing?

they made a copy of a copy, our deal was exclusive sales through driftline. Big Red needed a copy so that was the first one we pulled, then the second one went to some arab dude who paid lots of money, who then went off an made a mould off that :yes:

anyways...

sofa king awesome.

f**k the black bonnet off and you have a winner. red all over cleared indicators/tails scoop and that wing. black or white wheels. oh yeah.

Yeah, I was just testing the black bonnet to see how it would look. I don't think it needs it.

I already have the black/chrome lip SSRs ordered. Clear indicators are done.

Same front bar and similar sideskirts.

Will get a TRD wing (similar to that) and then a nice rear to finish off.

If I get bored with red then I'll do a full respray later on. Fitment/spray of just the kit will only be like $1000 or so.

Sounds like a plan :kiss:

I think I like it better than black on black.

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
