    Pic of it fitted? Do you know if you can mix and match plate styles? I don't want anything else on the front as i customised a slimline - borders trimmed the rounded to fit into number plate recess, angled in towards cooler.
  2. No Crust Racing
    Hmm, thanks for that.
  3. No Crust Racing
    I've got some spare at home, can you show me how it came out?

    Jap plate doesn't come in black/white. Dunno about US plate and if you can have different plate styles on each end as I customised the front slim line plate to fit the z tune style bar recess.

    I have those fitted but haven't driven on them yet. Quality in hand seems good, bearings seem strong and the boots are a nice touch. Take particular note of this, I had to cut mine down so much that I needed a die to extend the thread up the tie rod end on standard S13 inner tie rods. NOTE: When used with stock knuckles the tie rod thread may need to be cut down we recommend using our adjustable inner tie rods (14mm) which offer more than enough thread either way as seen in the following link.

    I'd considered just cutting a nice piece of aluminium and painting it the same colour as the car. Not keen on changing the whole bar, but I like the look. Got pics of your 32/S15?

    R34 Rear Number Plate Gap Options What have people done to tidy up the rear end number plate surround? As you can see in this pic (not my car) a standard issue slim plate leaves a lot of space below it. The Japanese plates available from Vic roads will fill that space but do not come in black with white writing, which is what I have. Cutting the tabs off will still leave that big gap. Has anyone done anything unique here?

    Very informative, good post My car goes in Tuesday for Cams and Springs, we'll see how it ends up.

    Was talking about doing another test and tune if you're keen. Silvia should be ready to go hopefully by the end of the month. I'd rather drive an hour and do Winton over Wilby.

    Rear sway bar in with lovely new bushes. Made some progress on the rear diffuser/cavity fill in. What you see is a Mazda 3 engine tray and some home made brackets. Will be attached to the rear bar also and likely some additional bracing along the front in the middle. It only goes across to where the exhaust sits (removed in these pics but you can see where I've made some adjustments to the tray to clear it). I'll likely put some sort of fins on it for extra rice points. ECU arrived at Nistune yesterday.
  11. No Crust Racing
    Much appreciated.
  12. No Crust Racing
    I'll let the tuner know, at this stage looking like Tuesday it will go in.

    Remember there's such thing as too much cooling depending on the pad and rotor combo. You want to aim it at the centre of the rotor as that's where it naturally draws air from, try not to aim at the disc surface as you don't want different surface temps. Just aiming it generally at the centre will be enough. Nick at tyrepower across from the plaza. I'll give you his details on FB. When is next round? Proper sprint?

    Still plenty o meat on the Ferodo pads in there, even if they're dusty AF.

    What advice? I haven't heard from you in yonks, last time we spoke I bought those LCA's and Roll Centre Adjusters from you..

    When under the car I noticed my home made engine mounts are looking tired (boxed up the factory mounts and filled them with sikaflex because budget race car) and the trans mount is also the factory 28yr old one so have bought some basic poly mounts to swap in. Bought a new seal for the shifter housing as the old factory one appears to be leaking, hopefully it's just that as I can see box oil on the extension housing but I put a new seal in that when I did the clutch. Picked up the waybar bushes this arvo. Looking forward to test and tune

    OK, let's hope you guys are right. Tuner said he should be free this week.

    Brakes bled using this fancy bleeder - had some odd grey/blackish stuff in one section of the reservoir so sucked that all out a few times and kept topping up to get the extra crud. Removed front splitter ready for car to go to fabricator. Ordered Nistune, removed ECU and posted this morning. Removed SITC as it will no longer be needed(for sale), returned loom to standard which was easy enough as I'd done terminals last time. Will leave SAFC in as a knock guage and because it can help with Diagnostics by showing sensor voltages etc. Front wheels on and camber adjusted to clear shocks, really need some better offset rims Started rear diffuser - which will really just be a section to fill inbetween the fuel tank and rear bumper. Will put some rice fins on it for lols. Comes up to just near the start of the fuel tank. Anyone got a fibreglass bonnet, a cheap race seat/rails, and some square 17x9 decent offset rims in 4 stud?
  19. No Crust Racing
    Will update if I do anything, at the moment i's good enough. Trans mount and fresh fluid helped. Off to tuner for more power shortly anyway, so see what happens then.
  20. No Crust Racing
    I guess yours are already on order then
  21. No Crust Racing
    You only turn up in my threads when you wanna sell me something lol Doesn't need hektik brakes - street car.

    Ducked out for a few mins last night and got the front sway bar back on, those end links are nicer to work with. Had to order different bushings for the rear as Bursons gave me the wrong ones, I was too focused on if the bush would fit the bracket I didn't notice the diameter was wrong. Borrowing a fancy pants brake bleeder this weekend and will hopefully get that done if time/sick family members allow. Is it worth me buying a Nistune... $350 installed and returned to me. I don't expect much if any more peak power as that's about what these turbos make, but I was thinking maybe the midrange and response could be better with better control of the timing coming onto boost. Plus having at least a basic knock map would be nice. I assume I could get a few bucks for the old SAFC and SITC combo also. This is what I mean by budget... GTR I didn't blink at buying the Haltech setup.

    That's over 5 years worth in that other thread and I had the car for a few years prior. When I get really chatty I end up with over 100 pages in 18mths like my GTR build.. I am known for being verbose and an active forum member, oh and indecisive and like to discuss all the ins and outs of something before doing it - it's a curse lol It's pretty budget (lots of second hand parts or just OEM bits of other cars that are upgrades on this and were rebuilt etc), nothing is big dollar and total spend is quite low all things considered. Also very backyard as I've done 90% of it myself. If I had my time again I'd do this with an SR again too, but back when I bought this car it was a steal at 5k with the mods it had and in the condition. SRs were pulling 7-8k easily then and I was still saving for a house. No updates on part install, we've all been on and off sick this week - has been a long ass week.

    Sorry to hear that

    Paint my car while you're at it, white is fine k thx. I noticed that ag pipe was much bigger, better idea on a heavier car. There's not much to it, fit different LCA's, see what camber you end up with. Camber is easy to do with string line or the guy I took the GTR to was only 70 bucks for a full alignment, he'll be doing the Silvia too. After going in Brendan's car with those Nankangs are fearing for my safety... never again I've got all my stuff for the Sil now so will put it back together then T&T time I think.
