Alrighty, bring on the pics.

Now please understand I dont have a clue what I was looking for and just tried to take as many shots of everything I could think of in the time frame with a camera I didnt know how to operate, that and I'm unco.

Anyway be gentle here are the results, wont see the car till next weekend so any follow up shots will have to wait till then:

That's all, sorry if they are crap, but I didnt have much room under there, plus when you have absolutly no idea what you need to take pics of, makes it a bit hard, but hopefully some might be usefull................?

How dodgy is the ramps :D they bent a bit so i whacked under there two pieces of hardwood, and then it held fine, CAL ME KING OF DODGE!!!!

Good jok Ska! Thats fantastic! Just a quick q, what sought of power does that Stag have? And, when are you taking it over the quarter? :)

Right now I dont know, and cant afford the good tune it desperatly needs, ~200awkw has been mentioned before about this vehilce, but it would just be a stab in the dark at a guess.

Seat of the pants says it is WAAAAAAAAAY faster than my old r33 gtst with 180rwkw.

When it moves down here with my (soon to be) wife, I plan to give it a very muchly needed dyno tune and then take it down the quarter to see what she is made of :D

Early next year that should all happen as all my finances are going into our wedding in December, after that it'll be time to have some fun with the stag :P

Bit off topic, I'll PM you the details, might try to keep this thread about the manual conversion :D Which i have no idea how it was done, Gary1 is better off answering the questions as he actually did it all himself, well with the help of Mecury Motorsports up here in Brisbane.

oh yeah An easy fix for the time being is just to use a ZIP tie but make sure the boots ok & not to dirt inside & still lots of grease in there so it does not flog out the CV quickly, that should take care of it for a few months

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
