after many... MANY months... its finally here and in my driveway and OH BOY is it fun

this thing is a sideways animal... it has a mental LSD setup and even doing 15kmh around a corner u can hear the LSD rotating both wheels skidding around the corner.

The engine is painted in a glitter paint which looks pretty cool... the engines been pretty well maintained and all the mechanics are pretty good. It has a pretty bloody big oil cooler on it... could almost use it as a FMIC on a small turbo car

the twin plate clutch is pretty noisey but reasonably easy to use... the noise it makes when it hits boost is scarey

very easy to control sideways thanks to the suspension setup but the front tyres rub pretty bad on the guards... im going to have to get them rolled out even more.

i have a vid of it revving to about 4000rpm but its pretty poor quality thanks to it being from a digital still camera with mono sound... cant upload it tho i dont have any webspace.

body is a little rough, no major problems but the front bar will have to be repaired as its pretty rooted... genuine monkey magic URAS kit.

cant wait to get it on the track.

was a nice drive home from glen waverly to bentleigh east... stalled about 3 times but luckily while i was moving so i could just jump it by dropping the clutch.

thanks guys...

yeah i will get the engine and everything checked out before i go doing any dyno runs... i dont like dynos... i reckon it puts a lot of strain on the engine... but i will definately post it up when i do.

Drifing aint much better! :) It will be certainly hard to resist until it is all checked.

Good to see it arrived in one piece... I am ultra ultra paranoid about mine at he moment. Will be getting it in the next couple of weeks.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
