Made up a second catch can/windscreen washer bottle and also a power steering reservoir.

I plan on running two catch cans, one on the drivers side retuning to the PVC and to the sump and the

second on the passengers side returning to the inlet of the turbo and the sump as well.

I'll be able to hide the boost control valve and windscreen washer pump in the cavity under the tank.

Small update, welded up the intake pipe and return from the synapse diverter valve to the intake.

Don't think I will use the air box I made.

Also trying to work out a bonnet hinge, going to make some in the style or R33 boot hinges.

These are just some pieces of flat bar to work out the lengths of the links and where the pivot points will be.

Should be able to make the bonnet swing up 90 deg.

Bit of an update, brought some wheels, crossfire D-spec 18x9.5 also brought some hardrace rear arms. Started extending the sump

and filling in the bottom of it to hopefully help oil return.

Little bit of stick out.

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
