Newbie Vic Australia Joined For Cams Affiliation Have A Modded Fiesta St But 1st Car Was A R31


Recommended Posts

Hi guys like the topic says I joined mainly for CAMS affiliation so I can do some track days. A mate recommended SAV as a good club to join.

My first car was a R31 which served itself well and had a thing for Skylines ever since.

Now I'm driving a fiesta ST. Great little car that is really fun in the corners.

It's only a 1.6 but the turbo does a good job and it pushed out 186hp at the wheels on a recent dyno run.

It's running some basic bolt on mods.

CAI, High flow DP, larger FMIC, bigger boost pipes, OCC, short shifter, yellow stuff pads, camber bolts and a few minor cosmetic things.

Look forward to meeting some of you at track days and learning more about skylines from you guys.

Will be at the go cart club challenge in January so see a couple of you then :)

    • Just pulled the passenger apart so got a good idea, also the side bracket that pivots the top half is completely cooked.. how I don’t know.. haha and paid $400 also included a photo of the passenger seat! She is mint
    • I managed to get the foam will the original upholstery off in one piece, so will be an easy to re fit thankfully.
    • Then eventually someone in a Tiguan MK2 with an email toon and some random Alibaba pipes. (FWIW, I ran a 12.9s down the 1/4 in the wife's car)
    • Not much. It's barely more than an hour's labour. So that-ish plus a boot, clamp strap, some grease.   But, being an R32 GTR, when it is up in the air and the driveshaft is out, about $9k worth of other problems will become visible.
    • Yes, as above. The welding is an easy enough job. Proper reupholstering, perhaps less so. These, and pretty much all seats of the same era (and probably still) rely on molded foam parts to make the shapes. That foam is the yellow detritus visible in the photos. And it is difficult to replicate. I didn't want the pain, so went aftermarket seats instead. But for "saving a classic".... it's probably worth the kidney and left nut that a trimmer will want to redo them.
