Hi guys - not been able to post for some strange reason over the last few days?.

Yes they are cold feeds straight into the engine, no need for a feed to the brakes as the car is only going to be used for drag for now. If we change it back to circuit in a couple of years then we will open up the front spoiler to vent to the brakes.

Some extra pics on the website now http://www.projectgtst.com

Loads of really good pics to follow at the weekend & the car is going into its first drag competition on sunday/Monday - really looking forward to it although we wont be running full power just yet & are still waiting for the "full on gearbox from xtrac" .

Have a stunning rear diffuser & rear wing to go on tomorrow.

Hows the GTST's in Aus - any more big power monsters coming out soon ?

turbs looks um large....thats not low front bar doesnt even look damaged lol...any more pics buddy....

Hi guys

Well first competition out of the way & shame we couldnt test beforehand but the car wasnt ready till 9pm the night before.

Huge problems with suspension & grip day 1, better tyres day 2 with same suspension problems helped us go 2 secs quicker 11.6 @ 138 mph.

60 foot times were awful as the suspension was just plain wrong (way way too hard)

We have got a full testing day on Friday 16th june & the competition after that is on 24/25th June.

Suspension guys are working really hard to get it right & will be there for the test with revise coilovers & spring rates etc so should be a lot lot better.

Gearbox with airshifter arrives in 4 weeks so great times hopefully not 2 far away

Nice.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
