Street Bomb A31


Recommended Posts

update, dunno why, not really much of a build thread person, but getting comments on it gives some motorvation.

Also got "too many projects syndrome"

Thanks to buying a dirtbike, a dr30 and a chev nova on this years california trip.

plus genral living, enjoying life and trying to save to build some units all adds up to doing sweet f**k all on the ceff :)

Still sorting out shit, indicators work now, fixed a wiring issue that was causing a flat battery, radiator finally died (it was the same one as it had when it intially got imported)

modified and fixed the drivers seat rail, new catchcan mounting.

heaps of small things.

Larger mods included.

intank pump (VL commodore, BRO) with a modded cradle

surge tank running two 044's.

Sounds like a have a super charger in the boot haha.

Z32 rear brakes:

Good to go except for needing longer brake lines,

will get some braided ones made up tomorrow.

Decided to sell the CST's off it, as they were abit to mexican on the front with S14 Lca's.

Brought some of these.

enkei_rpf1_silver.jpg

17x9 +22 front

17x10 +18 rear

Got em for a steal while in the usa last month, and got good coin for the cst's.

Also nice and light :)

Going to club circuit/hill climb it, not enough drift in vic, unless toff wants to organise a ceff skid meeting in Tas :P

Suspension re-vamp:

Changing back to my usual setup after driving it a few times, was running 10/8 combo with no swaybars.

Back to 8/6kg with large swaybars and decent coilovers, initially was thinking bilstein or ohlins, but the BC 'ER' series looking great for the price, when the inserts die, its a easy change to a better one.

r33 gtr wheels with 235 or 245 tyre R tyre should be enough.

Also looking at some sort of spoiler for the back for a bit of downforce.

some pics up soon.

wheels have 3mm more 'poke' than the previous CST's,

with the wider width, the 235's should stretch abit more giving less rolling diameter, thus a tiny bit more clearance.

I had another go at bashing the inner wheel wells out on the rear, f**king hard yakka.

Might grab the grinder and start chopping :whistling:

Braided brake lines made today, fancy as hell.

Also chris, specs of those G7's at your work today?

I came past, you were on a delivery.

update?

will need to cut the metal inner skin if more inside clearance is needed, then weld a ili strip between the gap after its beater or rolled to suit clearance

Updates?

I lost the key for it haha.

Got tuned, 395rwkw, 20psi, on pump 98. makes 20 pounds at 4k rpm.

Limiter is only at 7200,

A twin/tripple plate, e85, 3.5 /4 inch exh and 10 more psi it should go close to 500rwkw, way way WAY beyond my driving abilities :)

Was going to run it down the strip this weekend at calder, but poo weather.

Leaving the coilovers in, but full slick and front runner combo.

Will most likely run a high 11 at 140ish mph haha.

Still need to fit oil cooler and change to r33 clutch fan and shroud setup.

    • From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"
    • Hi all,  I have a older model of the Greddy Front facing intake on an RB25DET NEO Head. I've bought aeroflows fuel rail and injector kit (1000cc Bosche injectors) and I'm unsure if the fitment is correct. The injector o-rings fit in the intake hole but it's not snug. I can very easily rotate the injectors even when the fuel rail is mounted. The kit also came with multiple adaptors, they dont make it any more snug and using them raises the injectors up and i cant mount the fuel rail. I hope this makes sense I've asses a few photos.    Thanks so much guys. 
    • So, to run the 4g aerials to the booster, I had to get access to the rear bulkhead....bit of a mission. Hot tip, don't offer to help change the rear shocks for a mate with a v37.... Remove seat base, 2 clips that slide forward to release it the it lifts straight out Fold down rear seat (pull in from boot) The side bolster of the rear seat is not connected to the middle parts that fold. To remove unbolt at the bottom bolt then push it up off the top hook Then there is a plastic surround behind the seat back, 2 pop out clips, 2 bastard clips, some swearing at it is out Pop the rear seat latch surround off Remove door surround lower trim then side trim  Remove c pillar trim - 4 clips, pull inwards not forwards Remove metal brace - 5 bolts 1 nut Then you have got to the rear strut top...what a pain!
    • If you really want squish back, you can have it put on the piston (at least to some extent).
    • Impressive. He's very very smooth.
