Yeah nice!!!

Although i would hate to think how much i have spent on fittings and hoses over the years

[Anfanee]

I have spent a little bit.

Updates time.

Gave her the fastest bath of her life. And a quick cover with Zaino. 

Still need to fix the drivers headrest of the nismo covers. And give the interior a clean......

So... How to tell i like nismo? Also i just noticed i need to straighten the horn... lewl There is also a Nismo boost gauge in the circle vent... Missed that in the pic. 

 

Will get some decent shots when i can.... 

[Anfanee]

Oh and as the engine bay currently stands.

 

[GH05T]

u need a nismo cluster

[Anfanee]

Cluster and foot rest are the only 2 interior items left.....

Unless i want the knee pads as well. But i don't.

Engine bay is looking fantastic. What nuts did you use for the strut tower brace? Were they from pro bolt?

[Anfanee]

uhhhhh i think they were from probolt yes...... Honestly can't remember. 

I think all of the red bolts/nuts are from probolt. Except the ones on the guards.

Nah white set won't suit my interior at all. I might one day replace it with a nismo cluster. I dunno. Not really fussed about that one. 

[k_d]

Non genuine filter? Cmon man haha. If only you knew someone that could get them cheap.....

New hose setup looks good!!

[Anfanee]

I'm still doing short term oil changes, will swap to a genuine filter when it's been driven a bit more. 

Next order ill order another nismo sock for the oil filter....

Also looking into options for the battery. Possibly a stand+enclosure welded up.... at the moment it's literally propped up with wood hahahaha

Few questions...

The black fuel line that runs over the plenum.. Should i braid that for the lulz? 

Also considering either braiding or getting one of the old school greddy hard pipes for the top Rad hose...???

I finally managed to get my hands on a decent condition optioned up foot rest, and i didn't have to pay drug (nismo) money for it. Pretty stoked. When that arrives that means the interior is pretty much done. Unless as stated above i want a nismo cluster and/or the optioned knee pads.....

Gearbox has a slight crunch 4th syncro. 

Or new diffs? !!

Tip all of that money you might spend into my car instead, know that it went to a good cause?

I'll tell you what, you give me the car and ill spend all the money on it. 

[No Crust Racing]

An interesting counter offer.... 

The car did come from Canberra actually, maybe it was always meant to be yours. 

As for your list, I would rebuild box. Reliability/avoiding further damage over upgrades IMO.

i was leaning towards the gearbox TBH. The rear diff is looking tired, but it's still ok. In saying that these gearboxes will crunch for years with no issues haha

[Robzilla32]

If the clutch is good, use Redline Shockproof in the gearbox and buy diffs instead?

Why Quaife instead of Nismo at the front?

A lot of ppl seem to prefer them over the Nismo. I'm not sure why as the reasons they specify it sounds more like a setup issue personally.

Personally I've been in a couple of cars with Nismo front diffs setup correctly by RPM and they were fine after run-in.

I'd do transfer case mod>front diff> rear diff (in that order)

[Anfanee]

Cause everything i've read says the quaife is better.

[Anfanee]

Oh and yeah the clutch is fine. Though when i do the gearbox ill be replacing it with a nismo twin.
