Man, i there with you. Mines been off the road for.. *gulp* 12 months. Have a mass of power steering lines to re-route, 12v feeds to run through the cabin, engine oil cooler to finish lining up... all waiting till i can get my tahbin and m.fold - i LONG for the sound of the RB again

It can often be hard to get under the gurl in the ever colder nations capital, to be covered in PS fluid.

At the moment im on a raising rate dose of HiOctane / JDM vids, plus 80's Rally docos' and rides in mates fast rides

Almost there, have faith man

M

yeh i got engine oil cooler to install as well along with mounting my bolt on intercooler which dont fit argggggghhhhh but hey as u said it will come together soon...good luck with yours 2

steve that sucks about ya licence mate ill have mine bak for awhile when ya get yours...did ya even take the 33 for a run mate

hey kane, interested in you car and mods etc.

i have seen many cars (GTR's on the dyno) i believe firmly awkw is more than rwkw, as the drive train loss etc.

not as big as some people think, but about 10% difference on average!

if you have time, pm me with you mods and figures etc!

as for the cooler, i just installed my 100mm cooler on my GTR, whatta bitch, hahahahhaha!

if you need any help with anything or would just liek mroe information, dont hesitate to ask or pm me, look forward to hearing form you and seeing how your car has turned out! mine should be running, well run-in tune, in a few weeks! ~15k later! hahahahha!

did full forged bottom end, 33gtr crank brand new, everything new or replaced or overhauled to some extent!

im hoping to push close to 400rwkw, but im sure my 2860r-5 wont handle it. see hwo we go and some fine tuning might get me there, car has run 11.7 with stock everyhting just boost and turbo upgrade. so we shall see 10's hopefully on a stock box. hahaha! hopefulyl she holds up!

cheer kane, look forward to your response mate!

Good luck with the install.

Why don't people just fix things as they drive the car.

Putting a car off the road for that long just isn't right....

yes still going as i did lose my licence for 12months so i had no rush in getting it going again?but now i have my licence bak the rush is on lol...got them mounted and the fuel pump just about sorted.so i still got to mount cooler and clutch then a tune....

At this point I would like to check if you have put aside $8000 or so for the possibility of a rebuild.

    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.
