(-Potentially new missus when she realises exactly how much i have spent and why we are no longer renovation the house over xmas!)

[scotty nm35]

How's she sound Ben? Did you get any pics?

[Artwear]

Nah sorry mate no pics, also, i have the stock rear pipe & muffler on atm.

Last thing i needed was the missus sitting in the car next to me for 3 day asking why i spent 4k to make the car "noisier"

When i get back ill have it refitted, that way i can go the straight pipe or mid muffler or whatever suits me. Ill take some happy snaps then too!

Well I brought it back from Shannon's for a steal, waited and had nothing form qld roads about rego, checked rego and still registered so put a windscreen in it and now driving if, looks terrible but u get that!

[madbrick]

Last week i replaced the plugs in our m35 cos it ran like crap. Sure enough the electrode gap opened to almost 1.5 mm. And was blowing the boost out.

Now it really hammers. Turns out the combo of hiflo turbo and turbo back exhaust cranks boost to 16 psi (installed new gauge too).

But then 3 days later i go ahead and stack it on the way back from work.

So now its in the panel shop

Just finally did the s2 tail light into s1 260rs.

Dash gauges boost & oil temp

Full manual conversion at home waiting to be put in.

[KiwiRS4T]

Well done (apart from stretched tyres ) - Even with those mods will benefit from a Nistune chip and tune!

[4bidn1]

Wow arts ware 4k is a lot should have come down to are workshop

[Erop]

new stuff from RU with love) 50 mm core CSF race radiator, SPAL fans, CNC custom made brackets. replacing 38 mm all-the-aluminiun no-name radiator and full-frame plate for fans (worked well, but i can't sit without new parts - i'm cooling fan)

old one:

http://www.drive2.ru/l/820268/ - more pics by link

replaced with real porn one)

more pics - http://www.drive2.ru/l/4893936/

am i right with welding temp sensor in upper bank?

fans are precisely regulated by PWM controller, which reads from 1/8 NPT sensor (i use OEM, same as ECU's main)

[Dunc]

Looks good Erop! Any significantly measurable drops in temperature?

I popped another OEM AFM yesterday (I think that's my third?), I was only 1km from home though - so not too far to limp it. I fortunately had one of Scottys 'after market' units on hand so I swapped that in & it was happy days. Haven't bothered to clear the code yet, but its driving fine
