[Tangents]

hahahaha, well waiting on a few things...

new 8000k HID kit coming

alloy intake pipe coming

apexi pod coming

led parkers coming

front mount getting thursday hopefully

new hoses for the bov return and the oil/air from the cam cover

picked up new coolant, side indicator globes and motul auto trans fluid today. getting stuck into the making of the new mounts tomorrow for the thermo, trans cooler mount and bonnet latch brace.

Also the stagea side indicator plugs are different to the r34 plugs, wired them in today. Spoke to the paint shop, they are ready for it once i get it driving...

Hopefully have this thing back on the road ready for paint by mid next weekish... fingers crossed

Looking great so far, Teren! Hopefully I'll be able to head around this week (or maybe over the weekend) some time and check it out in the flesh.

I'm back to health, so my aim is to NOT get sick again while out in the wet weather - hopefully it doesn't rain beyond Thursday.

Ok so a little update for those who tune in....

After returning from a quick trip to Singapore... I picked up a new HYBRID GT2 intercooler kit on tuesday, had to make some custom mounts to mount up to the the front reo and mess around with the trans cooler to get it to fit up all nice, also made brackets to bolt up the gtr bonnet latch brace and the thermo fan and modified the trans cooler bracket to fit up to the gtr rad support.

Received my alloy intake pipe and apexi pod filter, and have it roughly fitted up although the filter hits on the washer bottle so might have to see if the S1 washer bottle makes it any better (do S1's have the washer bottle mounted under the skirt where the stock intercooler goes? or do i have some different one?). If that doesnt work I will have to get a hold of a HKS mushroom possibly.

Could have had this thing finished and painted by now if i didnt keep on buying things to put on it!

[Tangents]

Sorry about the poor quality, these were taken from my phone... Updates so far, front mount in, headlights and other wiring done and working, greedy catch can with braided lines and speed flow fitting's in and apexi pen timer... just took the car for a little punt around the block. Sounds good with the pod / alloy intake pipe

Getting the guards, bonnet and lower lip back on Thursday

This is coming along great. Looks like your nearly there!!

[msports180]

Do you get much reversion messing with the AFM with the alloy intake pipe?

[Import Monster]

looking forward to an update on this one mate!

there doesn't seemto be any problems with it but I do have a 45deg silicon bend before the AFM, there was a few problems with revs dropping heaps fast almost causing the engine to stall after fast acceleration then hard braking in full auto, but don't think it was reversion. Possibly the dual port BOV Ihave on it ATM...

looking forward to an update on this one mate!

I will update the latest pics tonight when I get a chance, im waiting to see what wheels you can come up with!

Any updates on this car?? Must be close now or maybe finished. Good luck with it.

[Tangents]

Ok, Sorry it has been a while! but I'm just waiting to get it to paint

I have been looking at wheels feverishly, so far these Gram light 57f's look to be winning... 19 x 9.5” +19 front and 19 x 10.5” +29 rears

I have also put the front side skirt pods back on the car along with a JJR Bellmouth stanless front/dump pipe and a HDI Dual stage EBC car is now running 12psi

and for refrence....

My deadline for the paint and to have wheels on it is by the NSW stagea meet in the next few months!

I have also had a chat to a welding friend about removing the roof racks and having the holes welded up, looks promising but will let you know how I go

A few more pics

[GTRsean]

Nice green tape lolz! I'm using the same stuff to mask my engine bay for painting

Looks the goods!

[Tangents]

Oh and there is also an RB30 from an r31 sitting out the back too....

[GTRsean]
