I'm guessing it's the Nismo wheels that are the new look? If so I think it actually looks quite nice!

Don't spose you have any high quality pics of the front bar (especially the lip + fmic area) from either front or side view ? PM if you do.

Silver car with black rims, that thing must never need to be washed!! :P

A lot more practical than my own black duco/white rims combo. Your car looks awesome, it's got to be one of the cleanest cars on the road, not even a stone chip on the front.

Love the new look, but then again it's a Skyline, how can it look bad :D

Hell yes perfect combo for lazy people like me :D

Car does look good mate.......IMHO All a GTR needs is a bigger set of wheels (original ones look a bit puny these days), also any body modifactions to them ruins it for me :P

thanks for the comments everyone...appreciate it....

with cosmetic stuff sometimes you just dont know...

cheers

Mate. That IS exactly how I want mine to look. I don't know whether be happy or sad to see it. I'm happy becuase it looks how I thought it up in my head - I'm sad because you've beaten me to it and worse still you're in Perth!

Can I ask - did you get a new front bar and so on? Bought new or anything like that? I currently have a veilside front bar and no rear spoiler. I would like to get the Nismo front bar and rear stocky back on and am thinking of going new parts...

Nothing on that thing I would change. Perfect.

thanks Matt,

I bought a new front bar and lower lip from nissan, I bought the speed holes from some place over east and had them fitted.

Nismo bar would be preferable due to having the speed holes already...you live and learn....

I would always go for plastic vs fibreglass to aviod chips as much as possible.

thanks for the kind words again!

Can i ask how much you picked up the lower lip for? currently in the market for one due too mine being repaired in fiberglass and just a slight bump and and mess it all up again.

love the look have same colour as you but your paint job looks much better..

and the price on those LMGT4 rims please, you dont have to post just pm me.

cheers..

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
