Thought id update this... Car has been going very strong, been to 1 drift meet with this setup and it absolutely HAULS ASS!!! but with lack of suspension and a stalling problem, its not fun..

Suspension is now in, Camber arms, Lock bar, Traction rods and Castor rods.. thanks to Ryan from ISC PERFORMANCE. Very good bloke to deal with and great value for money.

Car will be sent off to Centerline suspension, to get a full wheel alignment to Drift specs.

Then will be back at creatd getting a Trust bov fitted plum back to stop this stall problem then back on dyno for a few checkups.

Well be back out on the 27th of feb, last wednesday of the month.. Should head down to calder for a geeze.. Or come and say helllooooo

Cheers. Phill

Sounds like its coming along really well mate :banana:

Good choice on using centreline, I just picked my car up from them. They do great work, very good price and dont bullsh!t you.

Keep those updates coming!

I wish it was coming along well, climbed the first mountain and made the power i wanted give or take a few KW.. still want to do more work to the engine, more boost and add cams etc. Now i haveto climb the 2nd mountain.. Body work, iv been keeping it off for a while fixing my panels and stuff, but the panels will be fixed, ill be flaring the guards with my new guard roller ;) then a full bodykit, Either Msports or GP Sports. Then a full powder coated black roll cage will be put in and fitted.. Then a new set of rims.. This never ever ever ends does it?

My mate used to work at centreline, they did my brothers 180sx and it handles very well, so mines in for the works :D

Hopefully all goes well with the new suspension and the car wont want to throw me into a wall like it almost did last calder.

I need to roll my guards bad, was getting some serious tyre rubbage. If you want some one to come around and help you out (Baiscally muck around, and use the guard roller) let me know. :D

well my brother will be doing guard rolling once he gets the hang of it (you should c the flares on his 180!! it makes 19 x 9 racing harts look standard!) ill get him to roll your guards, as he will be doing it for a lil job on the side.

hey dude , a bit off topic but did you have to cut your bumper at all when you stuck on that GTR Intercooler as shown in the first pics on this thread??

Im looking to put an intercooler on and the GTR intercooler looks like the one for my car... have the same car as yours but in white..

Any downsides to the GTR Intercooler you have?

Cheers , Troy

no downsides mate.. its a killer cooler. Its a R32 GTR item. Didnt haveto cut front bumper.. i have the nismo optioned TYPE M front bar.. You might needa cut a bit off yours to fit.

Thought id add something here..

The cars been dead for around 2 years approx lol because of other things iv needed to do. Will be getting back into shape soon (aiming for christmas) and will be raced and hoping for a low 11sec pass with the power it should be making.

New setup is a 3076R .82 and an ex cam gear. Hoping for around 320kw on pump fuel.

Undecided if i want to keep it or sell it..

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
