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..

    • Hi all, I’ve just finished fitting the timing belt on my RB25, following the standard procedure: rotate the crank twice, release the tensioner, then tighten it down. The belt feels tight, and you can see that clearly in the picture below I’ve heard some people say it’s actually better for the belt to be slightly loose rather than too tight, as excessive tension can lead to snapping. So that’s in the back of my mind. What I’m seeing is this:  • At idle, the belt looks fine.  • But when cranking and especially when revving (around 3–4,000 RPM), there’s a momentary flap/flex or flicker in the belt, which I’ve tried to capture in the video. So my question is — based on what you see, is this slight belt movement something you’d consider normal, or am I just being OCD? Could this amount of movement cause sync issues? Or is it just a harmless bit of flex under load?   from what I know belt flap and flex is expected when crank spins up and pull cam with it Would appreciate any thoughts or similar experiences.     IMG_7656.mov IMG_7657.mov
    • I've replaced the front brakes of my NA to 324 brembos and 350z calipers: i'm going for 225/40-18 up front and 245/35-18 in the back. I have Rays 7.5*19 ET35(225/35) in the front with 5mm spacers otherwise the calipers "lock up/ won't rotate". When i use the calculator i come up with 8*18 ET30 for 225/40...... but not sure i get problems with the calipers. Anyone riding around with 18 inch. that can confirm "that it'll fit"? In the back it's 7.5*9 ET30 (245/30) with the 5mm spacers, but there is no problem with the standard small brakes, so i want to take 8.5*18 ET25 (245/35).
    • Lol.. but then.. always come back to a JDM..
    • Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.
    • The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
