Did everybody leave,

Anyway Sciby about the inside of my car, the seats are all getting recovered and most of the inside, am at the moment buying up compoents for my stero, once I have them all the whole inside of the car comes out and the new one goes in with the stero. the whole boot will be done and inside insert hopefully if I can afford it recovered in leather. Tan most likelywith the orginal balck mixed in, new carpet for the floor to plus the walls being detone. I want to do it up so I might get into like Hot4s mag, the outside has some body changes,

Clear tail lights, the four cannons, to complete the ass end of the car, the side skirts are getting re firbeglassed and the front bar renforced. paint the brake calpers and then try to get the paint looking shinny. the out side is almost complete now. This car is going to cost me alot of money but it is what I want to do.

Just looking up stats for a standard GTR and it sez 0-400 metres in 14.4 for a 32. That was in Unique Cars June. I was under the impression that they went a little quicker. Still piss nervous about the drags, but then i used to chunder before rugby so if anyone sees me blow chunks on saturday don't be suprised. Should be a mad day anyway. Dan you have to run come on do it for the appressed silvia Q's in australia. Hella keen to see the two preludes too.

You reckon dev, just found out at lunch I am looking at $1500.00 for re triming the stuff I want as in the seats and the doors insert and other stuff in yellow valour that not using leather. Leather is like 2/3 the price of that again. Plus Leather get hot valour more practical. Bright yellow it is, first stage is everything but the seats and that will happen in the next month or so like $450.00 at the most.

Dude, relax. It's all good. First time out there, no one's expecting a record-breaking pass. :cheers:

And those stats are never really accurate... my gts should be about to break 14s, (I hope) and you're faster than I am.

    • 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.
