And you said that it would never happen

Hey everyone. Haven't posted in a while and there has been a fair amount of progress on my little piggy. So basically bought "what I thought was a bog stock 25". Turned out it pretty much was except for the Exedy brass button clutch. Decided that it wouldn't stand up to the constant abuse from my shit driving so purchased one of these bad boys. It's an xtreme drift clutch kit minus the flywheel because I wasn't happy with the info that I grabbed from everyone about the lightened flywheel. So decided to get the standard flywheel machined up all nice and pretty. Replaced all exhaust studs, water pump, rear main, both cam seals, crank seal, rocker cover gaskets and washers and put in a gates racing timing belt for an added 37 and a half hp. Everything except the timing belt was genuine and crack priced, but big ups to Steve at Northside Nissan for his help. That guy knows way to much about skyline parts. Had the rocker covers robo washed by a mate and then gave them a lick of hi temp paint to make them look standard but clean ready for pits and then chucked them on. Came up a treat. Very gingerly placed the exhaust manifold on :| and then on went the standard turbo with all the standard lines apart from the drain which I replaced. Then it was time for the magic to happen. Clutch when on with little to no problems which was great then followed by the box. This is the guy that bought Jimmah's Laurel so I think he is entitled to look a little crazy sometimes. In went the donk. Went in surprisingly easy and bolted straight up to the 34 cross member. And as it sits now. It has a new heart, it isn't beating yet but it's in there. /CSB

Keyword being whores. Therefore 4 times as likely to catch some form of disease. Then.....

That is the best thing that I have ever seen

You read my mind

Why don't you just do what I'm doing Rob? After muddy helps me with mine (WHICH ISN'T TO FAR AWAY NOW!!!!!) I can help you with yours. Imagine the satisfaction that you will feel after it is done and you put in the hard work for yourself. And as for the speedo sensor from memory you have to get a 32 gtr one as the standard rb25 sensor that goes into the gear box is electronic or something like that. I could be wrong though

I strongly suggest that you ask the same question on antilag. They might be able to help you out.

You should see how fast I can push it now. I'm a serious contender for the Stawell Gift next year. Oh and it is extreme by the way

I have a 25 in my garage collecting dust at the moment because I'm still waiting on a gearbox. Mostly due to me being lazy and only just going out and getting a proper job but there is literally none around for sale. And when there was I had no money because I was to busy smoking ciggies and drinking export (yes I realise it's cheap but there is only so much you can buy on a centrelink budget)

I'm down

Bit of an update. Goes way quicker than before.

Me and three others at this stage. It's gonna be on like donkey kong

If that was your first time at the pits with this sticker then don't worry about it mate. I went over the pits 3 times and my car was pretty close to stock but they just kept on picking little niggly things like rear wipers etc etc. It's not technically their job to make our lives hard but if they are having a shit day then it makes them feel better about themselves. I know that if I worked at the pits every man and his dog with a low falcadore and 20 inch chrome rims would never ever passed simply because I'm an arsehole and don't like them. I have no idea about your car but mine is a yellow sticker attracter.And that's the way that I want it. (not attracting yellow stickers but you get the idea) As for the pod filter I took a nice trip down to bunnings and spent about $25 on some 5mm ally bar. Drilled some holes in it and then bent it so it fitted into the holes for the pod->afm and then where there used to be the stock air box. I made sure there was two mounting points for the ally bar and it felt sturdy when you grabbed it. It's unfortunate that we all seem to get yellow stickers and "harrassed" by the police but that's the way it is and I don't see it changing any time soon unless someone decides to blow up the ACA and Today Tonight studios. My 2c Billy and if you need any help and live NOR then I'm more than happy to give you a hand. Send me a PM and I'll give you my number so we can have super sexy pit preparation time. Mitch

The awkward moment when I'm from there too. Unsure of correct usage of there and too so please leave me be grammar nazi's

It's a long way out of the way and almost completely irrelevant considering you are in a new car but the coast hwy (can't remember exact name) between wollongong and sydney is a f**king awesome drive. my 2c

In all honesty mate spend your money on something else for your car. My 32 is running a standard rad and after 5-6 laps of beating the piss out of it around barbs it is still only around about 115 deg. IMO dont replace it unless it's broken

I still am. The 25 is sitting in my garage at the moment. And last I checked Tama you wanted to buy my 20

Needs moar dragons

Is it this friday?

Sounds good to me You still have my number from way back? Probably lost in your PM's due to the fact that you are a mod and receive all kinds of important things these days

Yeah I need to start thinking about building up more speed and a bit quicker so I can get longer slides happening Keen for a noob to come down watch you doing the wiring?

Yeah I'm thinking about just saving the money and getting arms so in the long run its cheaper but I have to get it back over the pits first haha I'm not having to much trouble with it at the moment but I just want more lock and a bit more traction

Steering rack spacers, rear camber arms, castor rods, those solid bushes for the rear subframe and something that adjusts toe? I can't quite remember exactly what it was I just ended up doing a botch job on the mani and drilling out one of the holes so it would fit on nice and snug. Wasn't really to worried about it because as soon as the yellow comes off the mani with the gate flange will be going back on.

I like budget. It is my favourite. I went up to the track and one of the trainers was like you need this this this and this and then he was like it's only gonna cost $1200. That is like my yearly centrelink salary :\

Hey bubba can I have your job? You have to much cash to throw at the 32 and it's not fair Keen to see this car in person though
