hey people just an update on wats happening

since my first post havent really done anything but would like some help on deciding a couple of things. i forgot to mention on the first post i have a 25 turbo on my rb20, an into the new year i will be looking at getting a fmic installed an getting a tune an up the psi a lil, so my help questions are:

with the 25 turbo in the car wat would be the best tune to get?? and to boost the psi level to? ( as i think its running slightly higher boost than stock)

were in perth w.a would be the best place to go to?

cheers kim

with the interior ive had a custom dash matt made up suiting the black an grey colours in my interior an makes it look much fresher an cleaner

an yesterday after work i got bored an started painting a few things in the engine bay, the strut brace i resprayed an polished an fitted along with the intercooler pipping i resprayed the next thing to paint will be the rocker cover an timing cover an then ill be replacing the rubber joiners with silicone an shining everything else up to mate it look more neater all the condute along the firewall will be replaced also as after a couple years the heat has got to it also i will be re-meshing the bonnet vents an bumper side grills in the metalic blue i have an will be making my own bonnet grill with the meshing also fingers crossed i get it looking rite , i am looking to put a different intake manifold on id like to know what after market maifolds are good for engine upgrades an more info about them as im still trying to learn about them an have no idea at the moment so if you guys could give me some ideas that would be most thankfull

ive decided to put the stock bonnet back on an sell off the vented fibre glass bonnet cause im over it ahah but looking around for a N1 bonnet but im in no hurry.

ive done more repraying in the engine bay as i said in last post but havent got around to meshing the bumper yet but have done most of the silicone pipping, all the intercooler joiners are done just waiting on the rad pipes to be delivered aslo did a full service an glad i did the spark plugs where shockingly burnt! an i waswondering why my car struggled to start in the mornings aha ill post pics on the new stuff to give you people a squizz also i put a new steering wheel on as saas streering wheels arent the firmest out there ahah an a new full alarm system as i had some lil juvies messing with my car last weekend -.- (lucky i didnt catch them) but now propably for next few weeks or possibly month or 2 i wont be spending anything on the 32 need to save up some $$$$ for a overseas trip XD

[trigr32]

the shitty old spark plugs that were in my car just normal NGK plugs now ive put NGK iridium plugs an wow does it make a massive difference my lauches are sooooo much better now an nice an smooth accelaration XD

hey peeps just a update on progress on my 32

since the last update ive had a fair bit done an i shal tell you now

i was saving up for a fmic an 3'' bellmouth but ive ran into abit of trouble lately with the car

ive had issues with the coolant system so at first i was just casually driving home with the misses an i pulled up to a set of lights an noticed steam coming from the bonnet as natural freaked out an luckily got it to the servo 200m up the road an checked it out at first wen i opend the bonnet steam was just pissing out which looked like it was coming from the thermostat housing but turned out to be the heater hose had blown apart as there was built up pressure in the system cozzzzz the bloody overflow at the top of the rad was blocked!! so i unblocked it filled it with enough water to get home next day took it to natrad they did a high pressure flush replaced the hose an they got it back to me so was all good, 6 weeks later (3 weeks ago) on the way to work the water pump decided to shit its self yay me right -.-

anyways got it down the garage 101 an the boys there chucked in a new genuin water pump an a gates racing timming belt kit as i thought i may as well get it done to be on the safe side as i didnt have any idea if it had been change at 100k service, also got them to chuck on the silicone rad hosing i bought but hadn't got around to putting on

an also in the last week ive bought a few goodies to help things along i've chucked in a walbro 255ltr fuel pump an replaced the filter, put in some double platnum ngk spark plugs gapped at .7 with the yellow jacket coilpack which combined make a hell of a difference!

new rear rack ends as there was play in the rack an got the tien ss full adjustable coilovers in an adjusted to a good hight (lowerest it could go without scrapping aha) an just put on a clear timming cover from sniper racing today which make it look sikkkk.also had a gtr boot lid an wing painted up an put on last week an looks sleeker especually as i put in some L.E.D tail lights a new tint 20% from work an it goes so nicely together

also as the drag season has restarted i may possible be up there this wednesday to see wat time i get with the 220rwhp i got before putting in a FMIC,T2871R and 3'' belmouth with the new tune upping the psi to 18
