Well guys. as you may know i sold my skyline recently and bought my new toy. Well picked up an absolute bargain on my evo 7, car is absolutely unreal, I have no regrets at all about moving on lol (dont worry a R34gtr may be on the cards once they drop in price a bit). Car is straight from japan.

Well looks nice and clean and stock but....I could never get something stock..so heres my list that i know so far:

Hks turbo

hks pod

hks exhaust

hks f-con v pro ecu

sard 1000cc inj

sard fuel rail

surge tank

sparco fixed back drivers seat

Think project mu front rotors with some sort of race pads

And very very big suspicsion that it has forged internals

at the moment its running stock boost and needs a tune but still pulls harder than a 16yr old lol.

Bd4s and xspeed are the obly ones that can tune hks f-cn v pro in aus, cause its all in jap and the maps are locked from the info i can gather on the net...I know it seems a pain but from what i can tell the f-con v pro is the shit when its tuned

All we needed was an STI next to us and would've been the perfect 4wd/Awd threesome!! Looks good bud, just needs a tune and some bronze cr kais to fill out the gaurds and your done.

And then comes Porsche......... to eat you all up!! Like Classics yesterday, Sooooooo many Porsches, I wonder why......lol

Haha, well only plans are just to get a boost controller in it wind it up and get it tuned. Maybe some cr kais as ryan mentioned other than that theres nothing i want to do to it...

I mean cant really complain....brembos, recaro seats (drivers been chamged anyway), bilstein suspension, momo steering wheel all from factory and then all the goodies from japan on it, its actually more modified than i was planning to go if i bought a stock one..

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
