hi all i thought i should post up some pics of my car as i have had it for a while but have been lazy.

i brought it as a pretty stock turbo auto 4 door.

so far its copped the following mods:

pedders lowered springs

nismo 260 dash

tomei boost gauge

omori exhaust gauge

HKS turbo timer and EBC

drift pineapples

hicas lock bar

front and rear sway bar.

a few sets of rims.

GTR front mount (not fitted)

RDA slotted rotors

bendix pads

just to name a few.

it was in fairly average condition when i got it so ive replaced the drivers side mirror, passenger side vent and

have had to do the water pump but its all been fun.

hope you all enjoy the pics.

Nice Damo, Love the tail lights too and I like what you have done with the boost gauge.

Is that a different wing? Still love the 4 doors, that is what I originally purchased but a long story!

Now get that manual box in! You won't know what to do with yourself! :P

yea i forgot to add the east bear tail light covers. they were just being test fitted when i took the pic. im pretty happy with them and ive sprayed them myself. just a few more coats of clear and they will be on for good. they certainly make the back look better.

yea i like the boost gauge idea but i have since straitened it up was going the drift look but it just looked odd. ill post up another pic soon of the other gauges ive put in.

the car is handeling well now i just cant wait to get a manual in it.

Is this the same car I used to see parked in Bathurst st Carpark?

Now sometimes parks just off Margaret St.

yep thats the one. the old owner used to park it there. i work at carswell auto elec so thats why its parked there.

Hi mate, where did you get the Nismo 260km speedo from, as i would like to get one myself.

Cheers, Raymond

well i was lucky enough to get this out of a wreck very cheaply. they come up for sale on here every now and then.

thanks for the nice coments.

thought id post up some pics of my latest work.

i just finished modifing my nismo strut tower brace to house a brake cylender stopper. i also had the cross bar highly polished thanks to a good friend of mine. some of the pics arent real clear but you get the idea.

ive also just fitted a gereddy catch tank and drift oil breather. i haven quite finished it yet as ive been waiting on a T pice.

ive also just installed rear adjustable camber and toe rods from just jap as well as some uras sterring spacers which have given the car a tad more lock. and i have custom made castor rods and gusseted castor brackets going in before the weekend.

ill take pics of that next time i have a wheel off.

hope you all enjoy!

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
