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

Standard size should fit ok? Mine does

Few questions...

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

I cant see a fuel line over the plenum? Theres a black vac line that you should make longer and run under the plenum

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

Nah?

Next on the list is a toss up and i can't decide.

Gearbox rebuild- Typical synco issue coming down from 5th to 4th, loves a good teeth clean.

Buy another box and when it breaks use the two to make 1 hahaha

Diffs - Replace both front and rear with a quiafe front and nismo pro rear.

Whats wrong with the standard rear diff? Just rebuild it. And front diff is motor out so might as well do extended sump instead of quaife rear diff

Suspension - Sway bars (probs whiteline, nismo is more than twice the price now) and replace my Teins with MCA blues orrr Nismo suspension. 

MCA

But hey, dont let me stop you haha.

Standard battery does fit. I'm just not using one.

Sorry I meant the vac line for the fpr. Yeah might get a longer one and just tuck it.

As for the gearbox if I have to drop it, for $900 I'll just rebuild it. 

And as for rear diff again nothing wrong with a rebuild just thinking  if I'm doing it I may as well do it properly. 

[k_d]

Nismo do clutch kits for the rear diff if i recall correctly. 900 from award or somewhere local?

[Anfanee]

If i'm getting the rear diff rebuilt award will do it. thoughhhhh if i do that 

Ill get Ultimate to pull the rear diff and gearbox out and ill take them down in the cube. 

 

$$ ads up quickly. 

[k_d]

Better sell yourself more.......

[Anfanee]

Won't get much tbh

[k_d]

Better than nothing. Id have to pay if i did it haha

[Anfanee]

Salted roads do wonders. She will be a resto job. 

[Anfanee]

Started polishing the footrest but its too bloody hot. Will also get some rust converter for the bracket and have a crack at that on the weekend. 

It seems like it should come up OK, that rust section on the face that is on the left will probs require sanding but the rest has come up pretty good for 20 minutes worth of work. I might even leave the bit on the left for the time be and polish the rest up and fix it later. 

[Anfanee]

Getting there.

[k_d]

Looks good!!!

[No Crust Racing]

I admire your dedication Ant

[Anfanee]

Mechanic was nice enough to give it a detail after some check ups. What a champ. 

[No Crust Racing]

Now that's good service.

[Anfanee]

So it had a good check over, a couple of little long term things that need addressing but nothing major. Overall pretty happy. Fixed a few things and the car is driving beautifully, it's amazing when little things can make the world of difference. 

Next will be sway bars i suspect.

It's amazing what a difference some things can make.

Nismo mounts made a much bigger difference than I expected in the 34.

I'm the Silvia I've always said the seat was the single best mod I've done on it.

[Anfanee]

haha the seat

[No Crust Racing]

Yep, a quality seat made such a huge difference to the driving experience. Hell it isn't even that special a seat, just a run out model Velo Podium, the first ugly one, not the sexy version 2 lol

[Anfanee]

Finished the interior, needs a good clean.

Oh also...

I am the 1st person in history that after not having HICAS for years, loves the feel of it now that i have it. Legit cannot understand why people lock it out, i can understand removing it for the weight, but the car has so much more direction above 80km/h.
