  1. Cheers Damien. Hoist = super fun happy time ha. Yeah wheels should hopefully work with the look I am after, time will tell Yeh spacers = junk. Not much progress of late...but will keep on keeping on! Started getting the rear apart ready for paint prep and new rear tail/reverse lights to go in: 1. Getting rear exhaust shields out and ready to cleaned and painted My little friend, works great to loosen up the sealant around rear tail lights This is where we got up to, scraper works to get most the black gummy sealant off, then just thinners on a rag worked sweetly
  2. Cheers mate Let me know if you get a buyer for fronts and PM what $$ your chasing for the rear calipers only
  3. May need another set of these as looks like Aus fkn Post has lost the first set!! Faaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrkkkkkkkkkkkknnnnnn pissed Please let me know if you have set available Cheers
  4. Rear brembo calipers available?
  5. Price update: Twin turbo pipe + elbow - $150 + delivery Engine covers - $650 + delivery (will also come with brand new genuine Nissan CAS seal) OR The whole lot for - $770 + delivery
  6. Cheers mate. Been flat out with it but not much to show for it! still haven't got a chance to get motor progress photos....fuuuaarrrkkkk!! Yeah cheers Richard. Hopefully end up with a reliable, fun and clean 32R Got started on the front end, front sub-frame is now ready to drop out and to start the strip down Also, got started on completing removing the HICAS system (was initially just going to throw the lock bar in but decided I want the additional room in the engine bay room and why not save a bit of weight!)
  7. Thanks mate. Appreciate that. Do you get any oil surge/drops in pressure? Would be great to hear from others actually using an accusump and what EPC valve you're running... Cheers
  8. Hey mate Still haven't sorted an oil cooler kit at this stage....Will most likely just run the HKS kit that comes with everything needed. I did find out that HPI do an oil cooler only as well as the kit. Couldn't find out what was actually included in it but did find out price was about the the same as HKS etc
  9. Hi Guys Who is running what? Looks like options are Nismo, Whiteline and OEM Nissan...any others out there? Car will be doing decent amount of track work but want to keep it as 'comfortable' as possible for street as well (to much to ask...ha) Thinking I will just grab some new Nissan items and see how they go, will be cheapest option I think Any feedback appreciated
  10. Hi Guys As part of my current build I will also be running a Tomei oil pump, ACL bearings (with an extra thou clearance) and sump extension (8L capacity). Unsure of oil weight as yet... I am interested to know what oil pressure you're reading at say idle, 3k, 6k and 7.5k RPM? Also those who doing track work what pressure drops are getting down to? Reason I ask is am trying to figure out with EPC valve to run with Accusump....I found this doc from Canton, see link below: http://cdn.racerpartswholesale.com/downloads/EPC%20FAQ.pdf But just want to confirm the 35-40 psi valve is going to be the correct one?? Really unsure at which level of oil pressure (psi) I want the Accusump to open...35-40 psi Or 55-60 psi?? Cheers
  11. Got a chance to get the rest of the dash out over the last few days and started to suss out the items below 1. OEM clutch line 2. OEM slave cylinder 3. OEM clutch pedal bracket Looking to do a decent amount of track work and had heard this bracket was prone to breaking. Having a closer look you can see it has previously been welded up due to exactly this All the above items are being upgraded to Nismo items below: Nismo item looks to be a lot stronger, so will hopefully love the track conditions OEM clutch cylinder is also out ready for new OEM Nissan item to go in
  12. New exhaust system 1. Front pipe is Jap made SS item with 2.5in inlets to 3.5in outlet Brand is unknown on this one...? 2. Apexi N1 Evolution full SS 3.5in to 6in canon/4.5in tip
  13. Cheers Benny. They are in great condition mate! Spent a while scrubbing them but ha. Thanks again for all your help with these. Appreciate it. Was originally going to run these but when you had yours up for sale I couldn't resist!
  14. Been flat out getting parts organised from Japan (current exchange rate is motivating me) Mate of mine dropped these off this week, photos don't do them justice. Enjoy. 1. Rays Gram Lights 57 Pro Titanium Lip 18 x 10 +20 Over this car stuff for today!! Have a heap of photos/updates to get on here, will do when in a better mood....
  15. Cheers bra Few items arrived in from the 'land of rising sun' last week... 1. HKS intercooler piping kit (will be updating to different colour Samco joiners) 2. Modified OEM y-pipe 3. Cusco brake master brace (will be painted) 4. Bulk new genuine Nissan parts 5. Brand new genuine OEM indicators These guys are heading off tomorrow with a mate for an extended stay in Japan... Going under the 'knife' along with some others for an extensive upgrade! One word/acronym 'LED' Can wait to see them all together again ha Will hopefully get bulk motor progress pics this weekend....
  16. Thanks mate. Yep, read through other threads but none mention the REAR rotors... I am trying to confirm that 300 x 22 rotors are the correct size to be using with this setup on BNR32 Cheers
  17. Cheers Seb I fkd up and have edited now. I meant 300 x 22 for the REARS. Apologies Yes, read all about the thread problem with fronts but the REARS are never mentioned!! Just wanted to CONFIRM with someone who has actually done it that they bolt straight up with rotor size above...?
  18. Guys Really can't find anything on this... Will a 300 x 22 *EDITED* rotor fit straight up with BNR34 calipers?? These are going onto a BNR32 on the REAR... If not, what is the biggest size rotor that will fit straight on (dust covers will need to be removed I know)?? Any other info appreciated!
  19. Haha GOLD background you mean?! I wish man...this was the only one and I was frothing ha, right place right time! Cheers Tim. Haha yeah doing my best to keep you guys interested...hopefully will live up to my expectations I like your attitude mate, I know it will be worth it but seriously the time and money is out of this world Dug out the hot side set-up I picked up a while ago: 1. Custom made Enzed braided oil/water lines 2. Ceramic coated OEM heat shields 3. Ceramic coated HKS dumps & OEM manifolds (manifolds have been cleaned up to improve flow) 4. 'the twins' near new Garrett 2860-7's, ceramic coated exhaust housings, new Garrett actuators
  20. Mate...you should run these to complement your Tein coilovers!! Give me a call to discuss (think I sent you a PM other day with my number) http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/412108-bnr32-tein-f-r-strut-braces-brand-new-must-see/page__fromsearch__1 Also, where are the under bonnet pics??
  21. PM sent Thought I should share the most important piece of my build design concept: I came across this old school metal HKS emblem in a local Jap wreckers and got it thrown in with a Nismo flywheel (which is now subsequently not not needed and is FOR SALE - PM me for details) I purchased... I have always loved the signature colours of HKS (green & purple) and have used this emblem as a basis for my complete engine bay design and with the car in general... Will let the photos do the talking...updates coming soon
  22. I can only now appreciate what you have done here (and in your bnr32 build thread) after I am 9 months into my first build... You make it fkn hard not to envy you!!! Well done indeed mate
