Im already balls deep with an empty (slightly) rusted shell 😂 Sure will mod the house, already got skyline parts all over it! Haha
-
It sure will! And then it's the balance between need and want. I've also had a change of heart like Shoota_77, the skyline boom made it too valuable (imho) to have it as a track toy. Now I want it to be more of a gt car

Mine is in a sad state... Life caught up, gotta spend the money on the house like a boring grownup 😅 Fix car to sell and get the house in order, or take it slow with my home as a priority... (I hate it, but I get to keep the car)

So confused about Turbos. Garrett, precision, BW.
K_arlstrom replied to khezz's topic in Forced Induction Performance
Garrett just launched a new disco potato! 🤯 Still prefer the simplicity of a single, but found it interesting enough to share with you. GBC22-350 https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/garrett-boost-club-line-gbc22-350/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=clublineturbo -
Probably a stupid question but...

Don't you all know that it's possible to adjust how much you use the throttle? You don't have to push it all the way to the floor (speaking of that, I'm certain that most local cars are sold without one, as they have issues reaching 70 km/h in less than 2 minutes!) -
Ground up rebuild R32 GTST

Haha, indeed! A car lasts way longer ? Sounds a lot like a modern version of a led sled, must be a joy to cruise around in! -
Ground up rebuild R32 GTST
K_arlstrom replied to kaiju_r32's topic in Projects, Overhauls and Build-ups
Best type of insanity! My worst fear at the moment is that my car will get too good, that the driving will feel dull since I can't use its potential. Oh well, back to topic, this is your thread after all! You went with a trigger kit, s13 subframe and newer color. Got any other modification to share with the rest of us? Found the thing that will make it truly your car? (maybe the dash?) -
Ground up rebuild R32 GTST
K_arlstrom replied to kaiju_r32's topic in Projects, Overhauls and Build-ups
Will do! I'm two steps behind you but probably close to 45k AUD deep into my rebuild... Always a comfort to see someone else go all out too ? -

Can't see it without signing up for facebook, can you post a screenshot of the dyno? -
Apexi Power FC with controller
K_arlstrom replied to Jjtxaz24's topic in Forced Induction Performance
Dang... I couldn't even sell mine for 300€ including shipping ? got that and 2 oem ECU collecting dust on a shelf, will try and put it on ebay one last time before I bin it! Will most likely use a maxxecu (what the local tuner prefer) -

I prefer anything over tapatalk, even avoid forums that keep showing popups for it... Never seen the advantage of it ? @PranK, thank you for valuing our privacy! -

Pine guards/side skirts

Probably a full tube of some sticky stuff on mine, had to use a sledgehammer to force a knife trough it Everything but the paint survived! (going for a full respray anyways) -
Ross RB Power Steering Pump Relocation Bracket
K_arlstrom replied to GeeDog's topic in Forced Induction Performance
I'm going for another solution, electrohydraulic power steering pump from a mr2! More info on this site https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.diyelectriccar.com/forums/showthread.php/power-steering-using-toyota-mr2-ehps-19505.html%3famp=1 Not because I've had issues, but my rebuild/refresh turned into a restomod and this also gives me more space under the bonnet. Hope someone got experience with the bracket
