Okay and here are some of the pics for the current stage of build.

-- Original plenum is removed, whilst i wait for the polisher to call me and tell me he has finished polishing my new intake! Once this is done i will be putting on the polished greddy style intake painting a few items and doing up the engine bay a little (that thread of engine bays is really inspiring) Cheers Guys Hame.

p.s my cam shaft has 'DE' written on it can some one fill me in?

i was told originally (while the car was coming from japan) that red/white is turbo and blue/white in non turbo........

Sorry for dragging old conversation... but if blue is NA, red is turbo, then what are all-silver badges?

Now guys i have another question i have an apexi power fc on the way for my engine managment.

Hey guys just a quick queiry, i just got my pfc..now i after some injectors & a tune.

So now i think all thats left is injectors which i need some advice on. My mods are in my signature, i am looking for over 300hp (hopefully) just wanted to ask some questions here:

1. what brand of injectors?

2. what cc rating for my designated HP (remember standard rail rb25 side feed)

3. reccomendations for tuner for my car?

Thanks guys! Hame

p.s i was thinking 700cc+?

Hey guys wow been a while since i updated this post.

i installed a walbro 500hp fuel pump, put in nismo 740cc injectors for the fuel system.

Also, have jsut put in pedders shocks and lowered king springs up front and super kyb shocks and tein springs in the rear (as the stock suspension was terrible).

Car was tuned by GT auto garage with limiter set to 7,000rpm and 10psi boost ran from the internatal wastegate, car got 196.2kw atw on a hun dyno.

future plan is to get a profec b II and up the boost and re-tune..

Also have fitted longer wheel studs up front with gts-t rotors and gts-t calipers i re-built and painted combined with a billet 12mm hub-centric spacer for the brakes to clear the wheels.

yeah good job with the build mate,

goos to see people sticking with their pride and joy instead of just selling it off to get something already done.

I must say tho, not a fan of the wheels. sorry.

Yeah no worries, the wheels look odd in photo's (better in person), another thing i need ot be getting soon is some rear tires as the poor old bags are bald as!

And thanks jet_20, i wouldn't fine it pleasing if i bought a car already completed, i like doing the work myself.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
