that scene? Custom made panels or just that style of car in general?

Hi, been directed here to clear things up...

Yes we do custom and no it has nothing to do with your type of vehicle, we just tend to go down the path of integration rather than show :blink:

Want a loud, bright speaker that can take a real punishing.

Have heard a Mercedes that only had one set of SL60's front and back and 2 x 9500 subs and it sounded great.

Was contemplating putting the top of the line JL's in the front (sorry dont know model number) but was not as impressed with their performance and they are around three times the price.

Some great pics there.

Personally I'm going a completely different route than the above.

As much as i love great sound, my mission with this car is something that i can take to the track every couple of months and have one hell of a time without worrying about breaking things.

At the moment the car has full NISMO suspension (Shocks,springs,sways)

I have lightweight wheels, but going lighter with TE37's.

Next step will be track only pads, swapped in for the day, and semi's on the stock 18" wheels.

I'll see how the clucth holds up and update if needed.

Engine wise it will stay pretty standard at this stage, unless i crack and go supercharged :-)

I have a Fuji exhaust, and will be looking to get extractors and high flow cats down the line.

I've been looking into a reflash of the CPU but haven't decided on it. I've found a US company that has the Jap V35 software and will tune to Aussie fuel and the air/fuel ratios of my car (from a dyno read out)

Some decent cars with decent drivers are doing Wakefield in under 1:13 which is what I'm aiming for.

That's it at this stage - not going for the quickest track car in the country, but something that can keep pace with some of the turbo boys :-)

I love the way you think NISMO and am also tempted to supercharge the beast but not really sure if it is worth it. I bought this car to get over the defect problems and just a little worried. Although what are the chances of a cop even knowing if it was standard or not?

a car-savvy one may always be able to spot non standard items no matter how or what you do to hide them.

but just stay away from those shiny chrome piping, paint them black or flat silver if you have to and it will look stock.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
