hello everyone... kinda nearing the end of my mini project cefiro... its gonna be a daily driver so mods are simple and aimed more towards comfort then track/drift warrior... well here goes...

I personally imported this ceffy in october last year. bought for notmuch more then a box of coronas with the rb20 single cam intact, the main thing that drew me to this car was thestructural condition ofthe car.. it was in mint condition with full log books, etc... also the fact that it had no hicas made me transfer the money and before long my friend had done the FOB and dereg required in japan...

while the importation process was underway, i sourced a s15 silvia front cut to do the sr20 conversion... one thing is for sure.. this is truly a bolt on affair... once both front cut and car landed... we got to work straight away... the old RB came out... along with gearbox, etc etc... the s15 halfcut was stripped and all parts put aside... whilethe engine was out, i added a stainless manifold with the stock turbo...

as most of you may know already, the s15 crossmember is a bolt on.. i dropped the engine and gearbox in together and while i was under the car found out that the gearbox crossmember also bolted on... no modification required.... damn.. dontyou just love it when thing just happen??... anyways an s15 radiator was used and a stock s15 dump with a 3 inch front will have to do for the moment. I used a gtr cooler and had to make custom piping from the turbo to the hotpipe in 3 inch... for the "cold" side, i used a hks pipe...

the stock cefiro interior was comfortable butthe seats looked huge and kinda sofa-like... so i sourced a complete r32 gtr interior including front and rear seats... they all bolt on except for the back, there is a bit of a gap about 2 cm each side where the seats meet the door... small priceto pay though... comfortable as interior... also a nardi steering wheel was thrown in for good measure as were tomei exhaust temp and water temp gauges

thewiring i will have to get done as soon as the guy (slidewayz, i think he is called) is free... well... thats my story in short... list of mods is below...

stainless steel manifold

Trust Profec e0-1 boost controller

Trust oil cooler with filter relocation

stock dump with 3" frontpipe rest of the exhaust will be custom 3" and an apexi muffler

GTR front mount with custom piping on the "hot" side and HKS pipe on the "cold" side

Tomei Exhaust and water remp gauges

GTR front and rear seats

Nardi steering wheel

Trust Type R bov

for the moment this is all i can remember and dont think i have missed anything though... main priority is to get the car on the road now...

any more updates and ill keep editing this post...

cheers ... some shit fotos from my fone will be included later as i couldnt be bothered to take some high res fotos and post them up at the moment.. :whistling:

cheers

oh man this is the news i have been wanting to hear for sooooooo long!!!

my car is auto and i wanted to go an s14 front cut, cos i heard the 6 speeds dont last that long (im sure that's heresay, from someone no doubt thrashing their cars)

but mannnnnnnnnnnnn thanks so much for the info!!!

no problemo dude.. the rear seats arent too wide.. in fact i meant they are a little too short so theres a gap there... thats all... :O and for people wanting to do an sr20 swap.. i have a s15 halfcut coming in.. its fully dressed so pm me offers for parts if you need.. :devil:

cheers

MAD!

can i just ask... you said the rear seats are that touch to wide. Does that mean it's hard to close the doors or anything like that?

If i get a cef I'd like to do the same thing with the interior so was just curios.

Cheers,

Dave.

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.  
    • My steering lock unit on my Infiniti G37 has failed. The car is a local 2012 Infiniti G37 (Q60 ) I need to replace the unit My local mechanic said i need to buy a complete steering wheel assembly. Does anybody no any mechanics in Gold Coast or Brisbane who can fix this issue or where i can buy just the Steering lock control unit. Thanks
