lol, there's a hole in that housing where the port should be mate... hehe. that will be nice. should slot those housings into my road car...

Selling her? Any particular reason? Shame, the thing looked to be a decent little bus, and no doubt well driven.

No particular reason mate, and once push comes to shove might not be able to actually go through with it. But I'm feeling it's time to maybe take a break and show my little lady the attention she deserves. She's missed out on alot over the years due to me going racing.

That porting is massive. Should sound very nice indeed!

It's getting there Scott, hopefully driveable by Monday. I haven't got the dash done yet as a few things have gone over budget, so once that' all sorted I'll pull it out and get it flocked.

I even like the uras type lights on this one where they are covered. it would probably help the aero a bit as without that nice smooth cover it would for sure create drag or turbulence.

says the man with the Stack dash!:)

I'm jealous... I like shiny stuff...

Haha that was in the budget... but a few thousand other things weren't! :(

I think you're right Richard, and it's something I've thought about, but I just don't like the covered ones so I'm not doing it by convincing myself the open ones make for a great ram air intake :P But I should really do it, so I might when I have some more money and can do the aero stuff I want.

Chris: I'm sure some companies would

dunoo, will have to ask him. Maybe google the name above the door if you can make it out.

also, bought this from Revzone in melb.

it's funny looking at that porsche it just screamed american to me. I know it's LHD but that's not the give away. it's the cage design. the side intrusion design to be specific. so american. they all seem to do it that way with the ladder type side intrusion. I guess it's come because oval racing is their premier tin top racing and that cage design filters down to other categories. you would never see one like that in aus in any category. except benms lone nascup car which of course was US built or at least designed.

any particular reason why oval guys use that style?

It looks like the ultimate in side impact protection. As Zebra suggests American oval racing has far greater likelihood of high speed side impatcs.

Speedway in Aus requires that design, obviously a hand-me-down from the states oval racing regs.

Just picked up this for a fun track day project:

Will be set up for drift or circuit with fun being the key word, times coming second.

Coming up will be a heavily modified N/A 4AGE. Not too sure yet how I will swing it but I think lightweight forged internals, larger cams, light ported head, bumped up compression ratio, twin weber's in an alloy air ducting enclosure (gogo cad skills!), MSD electronics and a few other bits and pieces.

Suspension wise I am not to sure... More research will need to be done!

    • Absolutely could be. I collected data logs from when the O2 sensor was still out and also after I had replaced it so will try to compare them. Pretty confident that the affect is lowered with the new sensor, will check logs at the same RPMs/conditions. 
    • Hey guys Long time lurker, I daily a nm35 stagea 250t rs four and I've had it for almost 2 years (very reliable 👌). Issues or just looking for information ill always find myself here having a read, so thought id join.  3inch stainless intake, pod filter, AM performance turbo dump pipe, 3inch hotdog, 3 and half inch stainless to 3 and half inch AM performance blast pipes. Bc racing coilovers. 18inch rims Hdi intercooler and trans cooler soon.  Here's my car
    • thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price  
    • Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?
    • Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.
