Quick update for you guys

Been flat out at work and I'm also in the midst of organising the remaining parts for the tune and also the tune itself

Been chasing up tuners etc trying to get everything falling into place car may be tuned on e85 aswell! Trying to sus out a dual map

Quick question for you guys

The paint scheme for the car was flat orange with a black bonnet and boot

As well as flat black wheels with an orange lip

Due to very much foreseen circumstances it's going to be a while before this goes ahead

Had the idea of rattle canning it flat black and orange wheels instead till the real paint comes...

Please bare in mind it couldn't look any worse then the car already does

This showed up today as well there was a second box same person sent on the same day at the same time but it didn't arrive. A little worried. It was containing the rear lower control arms.

It will be getting all the suspension components installed and drift alignment very shortly.

Any suggestions?

Was thinking

3.5 in the front

Max caster

4 mm total toe

0.5 in the rear 0 toe

Is there a certain setting for the traction rods?

Some "semi" good news

The skyline is no longer my daily.

I sold my rx7 weekender and bought a more suitable daily

This is bad because I'll miss driving it everyday....

But does mean no defects for me during work days and I can also save some cash which I can pump straight into the skyline

And also run dedicated e85 and a slightly bigger turbo as street drivability isn't really priority anymore

Hey sau

Been FLAT out at work and things lately and having the lancer as a daily I got a tiny bit lazy with the skyline and I even lacked motivation last weekend but a quick drive and a little sideways action put me back on fire and I actually took it out for a drive with the dash all back together and now the cabins exactly how I wanted it

I also have a new fuel tank (to fix the leaky one) and my walbro 460l showed up ready for the e85 [emoji108]
