now for some big ass brakes and you could fool everyone!

till they see the interior that is :P

Yeah trying to stop spending on the car for now haha

Car looks great.

After having it for a while, how do you find the car's power delivery and driving characteristics at this power level? Would it be tolerable for a daily?

Hrmmm....Going from a sort of linear 280rwkw on the ss2 to a non-linear 350rwkw 3582.

ss2 definately beter for everyday driving- but i got bored of 280rwkw pretty fast

350rwkw is plenty push in back shit your pants sometimes kind of power

I think one of the new ss2's and bump up the psi to 22-24 for around 330-350rwkw would be great as a daily driver!

It dont need spacers. Looks great

But i want to be hektik

Great build mate.

Thanks!

How did you manage to fix the gap between the bonnet and front bar dude?

OEM brackets lift the front bar up enough plus rubber piece in between the bonnet and bumper?

Its not 100% yet but pretty darn close just waiting on some inner headlight brackets

You need the GTR reo, outer and inner brackets then upper retainer and rubber then shell be right

I went to go back and re-read this beautiful build, and maybe it's just me, but it appears a lot of the image links are broken?

Dang, that is going to be a pain to relink them all :/

Edit attached some images back up

Noooooooooo Tony!! Return them and get Tein Street Advance!!

I only got them for $750, this is still a budget build

Works for Richo so must go ok!

No big deal! I believe the Street Advance is better than the BC's, but not a HUGE difference between the two if you're only paying $750 for BCs!

Where can one buy BC's for $750?

Edit: NVM read up..

So the GTR coilovers didnt end being the best fit, as they are quite shorter than the GTT ones.

Returned to seller, so send me a PM if you to re-buy them

lol at budget build :wub:

Its not too bad

Incl the repurchase of the car after written off, I would estimated the whole engine rebuild, body kit and respray, wheels, everything to get to where its at would be about $20k or under

I take it they were for R34 GTR? Other wise where do I get those Tiens from at $990?

Yeah GTR ones, which are a bit shorter

Oil cooler has arrived

15row Greddy style Oil cooler from Vulture Motorsport.

Will be getting this installed with braided lines and a Greddy thermostat at Scotty's on the weekend. And maybe some ducting

Current temps where about: 95c just normal highway driving

And would take about 2 laps at Sandown to go past 120c

Ducting makes all the difference if you're installing it in behind the bumper bar, trust me on this one :P

Without it you might make 3 laps and then have to cool off. Duct it properly and you could manage to go the entire session as hard as you want, assuming it's an efficient setup.

Thanks for the Info!

Lets hope Scotty is up to the task!

In other news received these today, as I think the stock rubber ones are getting really old. Don't want to risk it on the track!

      Nope, but they are definitely one of the default choices. Well established.

      Haha actually I did join back then under a different email address,  I couldn't re-activate my account so made a new one! I didn't post much anyway so not missing out on much. Amazing to see how the value of the cars and parts has changed over the years, also ACT section appears to be dead now.

      Thanks... It's in pretty good condition overall, probably due to not being drifted/tuned however being a daily driver has taken its toll. Had 100k on the clock when I got it, up to 180k now. Unfortunately it's not 100% dent free, it's got a small dent on FLH side and broken indicator from where I hit a small kangaroo at high speed. If you look at closely at pic #5 you might spot the dodgy trailer light repair my old man and I rigged up as temporary repair! - It's still there due to a combo of needing the car as daily driver and then too lazy/busy to fix properly. I've a couple of other minor accidents accidents as well but nothing major. One required a new front bar and unfortunately the smash repairer ordered the normal gtst one and not the aero bar. Needed the car back asap so just went with it, regretted ever since.

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I can't believe that anyone is foolish enough to believe that the base maps are for any other purpose than to drive the car up onto the trailer/truck or gently creep it to the dyno. No matter how good they are, they can never be any better than the factory maps**, and only the foolish trust those on a significantly modified setup. **Yeah, yeah. I know there's also the difference between factory maps being fixed to certain injector sizes and MAP/AFM/VE relationships, and the likely aftermarket ECU base maps being better able to handle the sorts of changes that would render a stock ECU dangerous, like different sized injectors. But let's just ignore that for the moment, because the principle is still the same.
