I put up some photos finally. They're in my album.

I recently added the Dolphin front bar (off ebay), and an HKS Silent Hi-Power (from Just Jap). Everything else is how I bought it (already had the Dolphin Grill and eyelids)

Let me know what you think.

Thanks guys,

Yeah, I'm a little on the fence about the eyelids too, might photochop it to see what it looks like without them.

The engine just looks like a regular NEO 6, but I took off the coil/plug cover to keep it a bit cooler. Are they CE-28N's, Grant. Hot!

Exhaust is nice, very deep at low revs turning into a nice growl higher up. It's probably loudest around 1500-2500rpm. Made a big difference, smoother, bit more power, turbo spools quicker. Looks sweet too.

I paid 25G, and now I've spent $1500, uh-oh starting to snowball.

I'd like to get some R33 GT-R wheels, black powder-coat, I think would be the goods. And probably lower it and inch or so, too.

Who's going to the show/shine day at Merrylands? Is that confirmed yet?

R33 GTR wheels definitely look tough on a Stagea, even unpainted! Sydneykid has them on his s1, and he also just happens to have developed a full suspension kit which might suit your needs. I'll be saving towards this soon enough, myself.

I'm going to be at the Show and Shine - I'm actually helping to get it all up and running. We're in the final stages of planning now, and it will all be announced shortly.

Looks sweet. I usually like eye lids personally and want to get some myself but I agree they just don't seem to suit. I don't know if its because its a series 2 or it doesn't blend with the grille / front bar. Not sure, but strange 'cause I usually like them. I hadn't seen them on a series 2 before though. Otherwise it looks sweet. Congrats. Also is it just me or do the lids look a little off shade to the rest of the paint. Maybe thats it. Love the grille though too.

I've taken the eyelids off now. I think the cars looks a lot better for it too, much smoother. And yes, they were a different white than the car, they didn't have a pearl on them either.

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
