Nice wheels, love old school rays (first dibs if you decide to sell). You can just space in the latch to fit the gtr bonnet, thats what we did.

If that was directed at me I hope I don't have to sell anytime soon as it took me long enough to finally get them on.

They are nice and wide 18 x 10 with +20 offset all around

Real headache to fit

Yeah it was cool, but the best thing I did handling wise (other than some bigass swaybars) was raise mine up!

Indeed it is a GTR lip on a GTSt bar. (it could be a type m but i'm not entirely sure)

Got it off a mate and just cable tied it up underneath.

Does the job for me.

Actually can't wait for sunday :)

Hopefully I see you at the next one then.

I feel like I should take this opportunity to say shoulda stuck with the 20?

Why would I do that? The 30 was running as my daily for a couple of years, pulled it out to put some stronger rods and other stuff in, just didn't expect to break the wagon while it was still in pieces :P

It's going back together with a stock bottom end, ASR sump, my custom forward facing plenum/Q45 throttlebody and the highflow off the wagon. In order to be a tightass, we're knocking up some spacers so I can use some old Neo injectors that I have lying around (after a clean), 370cc should be plenty for the highflow as I'm not exactly going to be leaning on it very hard.. whatever it makes at 1bar of boost will be fine for a while.

List of things to do:

-Bolt reconditioned front callipers back on (as soon as chuckie brings them round :P)

-Get clutch cleaned & inspected (HKS twin for cheap cheap.. hopefully it's ok! heh)

-Bolt head & ancillaries on to block (easy)

-Drop engine in car (easy)

-Get my mate to weld a pipe to throttlebody (hard)

-Fit NIStune board to ECU (easy)

Interior will be back together this arvo and the thermo fans will be mounted and wired. Already got all my top end gaskets, just waiting for spigot bush and throwout bearing to arrive. Can put engine together but can't drop it in until I have those.

Once the brakes are on it can come off the axle stands, carport position swapped with the wagon and wagon turbo removed. Then really I'm just waiting on workshop availability which should be this weekend! Not bothering to book in for a tune until it's all together though.

It's not a showcar if that's what you're thinking! But under the skin she's built to take a beating ;)

No build threads, but a lot of shared ideas :thumbsup:

That just made my day that little bit brighter.

At least there is still some people left that aren't all about autosalon

Ironic, I remember cars from autosalon having big wheels, poorly fitted body kits and lowered too low for looks and not performance...

      I vote go red. Only because I hate keeping gloss black clean. Was no worries helping out either! Glad you've survived the rain outs of QLD

      MLR's Bogan cruise ship

      By The Bogan · Posted

      I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real

      Actually I might have figured out. Looks like there is a tab according to google images but it's hidden. Silly me.

      No clips on this one like the other connector. Only that red tab that I can push slightly up.

      For any loom connector that has an obvious release that resists pushing far enough to unclip, just spray some silicone lube into it. You might also benefit from using a bent screwdriver or small pick to push in the right place at the right angle.
