this thing sounds horn! I'm not game to nail it but I can say that by the sound it has it WILL go.

those that have seen it would have noted the camera setup. I had a problem to sort on that this morning.

Thanks chris, the setup is awesome. I can't wait to see the fine tuning.

For those that don't know I got Chris to hook up my video box system and output it to the multifunction display. Works really well and is quite practical for car setup/monitoring at the track.

All the wiring and cameras have been nicely installed and wiring hidden so there is no fuss when heading out to the track or running it on the street.

Currently in hospital with wife for the birth of my 3rd kid and only son (he is a little champ!) so won't be till early august that I get the car back out on the track with some more tweaks, can't wait!

congrats Mark. Bugga, I was looking forward to you dishing some more pain on the porka's tomozz.

Haha! Will have to wait until august Noel. Hopefully we can smash the Porsche cup car times then! Look forward to catching up mate.

ok, the car weighs in pretty hefty but htat won't suprise anyone.

1734kg without driver, empty tank and without the rear wing (Aeromotions R2.two about to be installed). this is with the 20 inch HRE's and Bridgstones on them, they are about 0.5-1.0kg per corner lighter than stock.

will see how we go over the few months getting some weight off it!

thanks!

as for what we will be looking to do:

wheels and tyres (track setup already inplace but the above weight is with the street wheels)

seats (remove passenger seat, racetech bucket seat for driver)

Battery

surge tank (purpose two fold - we maxed out the walbro's and allows running less fuel)

stereo, interior trim, carpets

track exhaust setup

CF panels (as the budget allows)

then maybe other creature comforts/doors/dash and sound deadening if I can make the tough decision to go mental or not on such a nice car.

driver will be losing some weight too. about 5kg of sympathy weight gain during the wife's recent pregnancy.

5kg off me probably saves me about $5,000 worth of carbon fibre!

HAhahaha. Too true.

Just loose it with cycling so you have a lower centre of gravity :D

the quality of the bumper looks fantastic, and it definitely looks tough. will see how fitment goes. nice pics showing the ducting either sode of intercooler iopening. hopefully we can make use of these though I suspect things will be tight back there once on!

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues 
    • Yes I as well would like to find out where I could get some of the seat material with the red or blue small squares in it
