Nice badge. I still haven't put on my new set of KLO GTR badge and Nissan boot badge.

Have you got a pic with the ganadors on?

I'm still buffing/polishing the Ganadors, so I should have them on this weekend if all goes well.

I can't believe the price of those weatherstrips...the 32 is becoming the equivalent of an old school aussie muscle car in terms of parts & price

In Japan they are going for $1k per side.

Awesome! I managed to pick up some as well in CF last week.

What boss kit is that?

And what rims are you thinking? Omori LMGT4's? haha

Cheers bud! Can't go wrong with Ganadors lol

Works Bell boss kit...

Too many people have LMGT4's but I need something that will fit R35 Brembos

Haven't updated in a while so here's a few more additions to the inventory that have occurred in the past month..

I had the front half of my car wrapped with clear stone guard protection from Ozicozi.. No point taking photos as you can't tell it's on the car!! But it's an amazing job and will serve it's purpose on the road/track and save me from repainting panels in the future.

SARD Fuel rail

Also picked up an R33 GTR Powersteering pump for when I get the hicas removed, no photo for this.

SPOON Rigid Collars for the rear, 
I had these fitted in recent days (did not get an alignment, this will be done when all the new arms are fitted) and I can say I'm extremely happy with the result.. A few problems have been fixed by fitting these including backlash from the rear subframe. 
I will be getting the front set in the near future to have everything 110% straight.

Ikeya Formula Front Camber Arms -10mm version which I believe will allow about 3 degrees negative camber..

20170125_170423.jpg


And finally, I have been looking for this for the past couple of years and never found one for sale.. So when this popped up on yahoo japan I had to have it without question..

ARC 100mm Titanium Exhaust, 130mm tip !!

Nice one, did these fix your issue with the wheels poking out 3-4mm to the left?

They have helped move it back about 2-3mm to the middle now but I just need to get a wheel alignment for it to be 100%

Mate, that freshen up of your front and rear seats looks great.

Do you know what was done to achieve it or who did it in Japan?....looks like they were dyed to bring back factory colour?

Hey Will,


It was done while the car was still in Japan by Garage Yoshida.. 
I'm not sure on the exact process, I think it is a dye of some kind but the seats feel completely normal and there is no sign of the colour fading. All in all, i'm extremely happy that I had it done!

Thanks!

    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
