Next on the list was i wanted to Up my Boost a little bit so ive purchased a twins tage turbosmart boost controller for only $20 of my mate.

But i didnt want to do this without a boost gauge so i knew exactly what Boost i had. (Not going over 14psi)

So nothing too crazy has happend lately with my GTR. except chasing down parts to restore it back to its former glory..

First of all was starting to get a bad miss under heavy load/boost operation. already had cleaned afms. put enw spark plugs in and thaught i would take the plunge to go new coilpacks. as i Went OEM with my GTST i thaught fu#k it im goign with splitfires this time.

So order set out. also orderd a ECU water temp sensor.

The water temp sensor has seemed to help out alot with my cold start issues but still im in need of slightly tapping the throttle to get her going. so the IAC valve si on the list of things to clean/inspect maybe replace next if i have to.

Bad photo but you get the point splitfires are in :D

And then on the list was time to finally get rid of those crappy rims. that are 9.5 on teh rear with 8.5 on the fronts that had shitty 235 tyres on them.

I have always Loved and dreamed since owning my GTR of buying some Work Meister S1 3P rims. but the price is just not in my region atm when i have more important thigns to fix. so a good quality copy is in order.
