Well, my opinion -- and since its not my car its really irrelevant -- is as follows:

1) The front bar is too aggressive for the rest of the car at the moment. I assume you like it, so I would suggest the addition of some side skirts to match and get rid of the variation in height.

2) I'd ditch the GT wing. They look silly on road going cars IMHO, and have no place on a sedan. You could use the money to fund, say, a FMIC to fill the big gap in your front bar.

3) The wheels are not to my tastes, but again, that's not the point is it :huh:

4) I wouldn't be listing stickers as "modifications" :)

lol....thanx to all of your comments, nah im sweet in all honest i like it with the spoiler plus it just cost me $200 to get the boot fixed so im not too keen on spending it again. You cant please everyone i know that but i did what i wanted to my car so others opinions are just fine :P i do agree with the side skirts and rear bumper but alas, i have used my nut and brought 3wks holiday in brisbane and sydney and also a house so, they will wait, still a work in progress my car and hope to import it if i find a job in oz. yep no worries will turn down that boost then i was told putting a front mount on would let me get at least 15 outta the turbo, so do you think it will blow if i left it on a bar??

hi there, yes yes, i think we figured the stickers weren't mod's thanx :unsure: hey RyanN yeah the rides good aye mate, i was pulling 120-140k's around a few 35-40k corners out in raglan here in nz and it stuck like gummies to an old person, its comfortable as hell and gives the car just the right look i would recommend lows if your thinking about it.

awesome, im going to order them right now. :unsure: as you can see my car needs it - ass is sticking right up in the air. :lol:

EDIT: The other thing i was going to ask is how loose are the low king springs in the shocks? are they still a tight fit?

    • Haha yea it's a bit of a weird setup at the moment, just wanted to make sure I sorted out any headaches before dyno day. At the moment I've changed the exhaust manifold, turbo and downpipe, 460lph fuel pump and rising rate reg as well as the previously mentioned headstuds and gasket. The nistune was already mapped for the car as it was and drove around for a few months no worries. The plan is to run flex fuel hence the big pump, which I've wired direct to the battery through a relay to avoid voltage issues.
    • Um. Was the ECU the same as the one previously there? I know R33's needed R32 GTST ECU's or other tomfoolery to run Nistune. This is such a wild setup. Most people would plumb in the turbo then not drive the car (i.e tow it to a tuner). What's actually changed since it last ran?
    • I'm a bit stuck with this one fellas, I recently decided to undertake a turbo conversion on my GTS-4, ended up pulling the motor to replace all the seals and do an mls head gasket and arp head studs while I was at it. Everything has gone according to plan, no oil or coolant leaks, compression checked out, and decided to give it a test before I book it in for a tune As it stands right now, the turbo only has oil lines plumbed so that I don't put boost into my untuned engine, and I'm using the factory GTS-T crossover pipe with a maf and poddy as a temporary intake. The car starts with relative ease and idles amazingly, however as the title suggests it really doesn't want to rev up, runs very smooth but almost feels choked out and unresponsive to the throttle, almost like it's running lean or something? I've triple checked my vacuum lines and timing with a timing light, injectors haven't been touched as of yet to avoid flooding the engine and worked perfectly beforehand, new plugs and coilpacks, I've even unbolted the cat just to see if it spontaneously collapsed, no dice The car currently has a nistune r32 gtst ecu installed so I have no way to check for fault codes. At this point I'm a bit stumped. Is this normal behaviour for a car with a turbo bolted onto the exhaust going nowhere? I'd imagine the turbo wouldn't cause this much restriction in the exhaust without the boost going through the intake. Any ideas? If necessary I can link a video of how it responds to full throttle while in neutral.
