  1. Don't bother. It's easier and more cost effective to just buy a turbo car. They are cheap these days
  2. Power seems low. With my 2.6, I had 422kw @20 psi on 98 with the smallest t51r. Yes I understand that it's not the same turbo but I don't think yours would be 40kw atw lower given a bigger bottom end Also it took them that long to do all that? Did they list specific days and how long they worked on it?
  3. I also think that because they know that you don't just live around the corner and it's hard for you to just pop in and take a look they can get away with taking their time
  4. I expect nothing less from Croydon. unless you are one of their bum chums like Hawkins or one of the other people who spends 130k + they don't really give 2 shits about you. It took them 5 weeks to build my fuel system even though I had 80% of the parts already there for them to install. Every 2 days I was calling and asking what was done as they said it would only take a week n a half and just kept getting bullshit from them. They have the worst customer service ive ever had from a workshop
  5. 2rismo is building one for his drag car, it's in the Motorsport build section
  6. Pretty sure it's the series 1 lights. When I had my Gtr n bought the series 3 xenons a guy bought my original lights to use for his gtst
  7. it can just come down to how its tuned. i had a t88 fully built 26 done by Croydon and it drove like shit. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone again after a simple build took forever. They are never in a hurry to do anything. Took my car to JEM after an outrageous quote by Croydon for simple upgrades. Got them to go over the entire tune and it drove 1000 times better after Adam had tuned it
  8. geez this will be a monster how come you didn't just continue with the old car?
  9. price drop $12500 neg has to go, new car already purchased

  11. Seibons stuff is usually a pretty good fit given the price, should just be a matter of removing parts u need from original doors and bolting them up to the new ones. I would suggest also getting the carbon inner door skins aswell if your going to do it
  12. you cant really go too wrong with a catback exhaust. I bought a full 3" system for my wrx which only cost $500 and everything is perfectly fine with it also just looked at the add, jdm performance is justjaps other trading name on ebay
  13. So u clearly have no idea what you are looking at if you didn't even know it's n r33. I suggest you do a hell of a lot of research before even going to look at another car
  14. Also who builds a forged motor with all that and doesn't even put in a simple boost controller? Also a Gtr has camshafts (there is 2 of them) If it didn't have a set of basic aftermarket cams in there all ready then I'd take it that no head work was carried out at all and now even less likely to make 7-800hp
  15. Normally when those figures are thrown around it means that the engine is capable of making that power given all the supporting mods are in place. You clearly didn't do much research into what you bought, u just saw a big parts list n they told you this n that and you were none the wiser. Without a complete fuel system including surge tank and external pumps it's never realy gona make over 400kw (540 hp). Mine maxed out at 401kw Also a fuel system from croydon is not cheap, I know from experience as they built mine. So unless your going to spend cash on a fuel system and upgrade to e85 your not going to see over 550hp
  16. I thought series 3 were only made from 97 onwards also no xenon lights and no series 3 front lip
  17. im guessing you bought the black 34 that was on carsales for ages with the t88 turbo??
  18. SOLD!!!!!! please close thread
  19. It was used, There is also n engine number stamped on there
  20. ive got an n1 block that's no longer required still has standard bores and appear to be in good condition was originally bought from mercury motorsport $1000. pick up only from Wollongong NSW
  21. People who insist on going right to the very end of a merging lane before they merge and then brake and hesitate coz they didn't see the 5 previous signs saying that the lane ends
  22. Budget is enough for the right car. If I put a price then people will throw up their cars with inflated prices if they know what I'm willing to spend. How much ru after? Should of mentioned that I'd like something with bigger turbos, 360kw+, I don't realy wana have to modify anything
  23. anyone have any decent well built r32 gtrs for sale or thinking about selling in Sydney/ NSW (possibly willing to travel interstate for a good one) by well built I mean the engine has been done right with quality parts and not half assed not just a set of pistons and rods. im after something with all oil control mods done (lager sump, baffles, oil cooler, good oil pump etc) a bit of head work would preferably like something with gearbox and clutch mods already done would like proof of mods and service history No burgundy or red colours the body must be in good condition also so show me what you guys have
  24. What clutch and gearbox does it have ? Who built the motor?
  25. I don't see the point of having every single model mx5, do we realy need 30 variants of the same car. Still can't believe that they never added the r34 ztune to the car line up
