Still have no idea of what colour to paint or were to get some headlights cheap that will fit i might have a go at making some up lol

Matte black. It'll look like a fricken stealth bomber. Get some black powder coated rims too, even small ones so it looks like you've got nice big slicks. The all black looks will hide it well and that car will just look mean.

something like this colour but with some old school muscle wheels that have huge amounts of rubber

The idea of the 34 front on a 32 is awesome...

From far it will always look good, but up close maybe not so good...the bonnet-to-grille fitment is terrible.

If thats any indication of the quality of the kit you have ALOT of work to do! But eh...thats what you get with ebay.

Good work!

Did you need to cut out the rear quarters to fit the kit?

Not really i guess but i wanted the boot and the rear quarters to be at the same level if that makes sense. As to cutting out the rest of it i dont think you really would have to but once again i am planing on cutting the the wheel arches so i can get the wheels to sit as close as they can on the inside of the guard but no so they touch

just few new pics and because i put this in the fabrication thread i thought i would show everyone out their that might be attempting this kit, this is how to hold everything in place in the second pic anyway lol. my mate Rob's wife shazza reckons that's how the pro's do it

Yes the rear guards are r34 ones

I have no idea how much work will be needed to fit r34 headlights im only guessing by saying that their will a bit fabrication to make them sit in flush and work as standard headlights

The kit quality was pretty shit as im left with heaps of gaps that take time to fix ill post up some pics later on in the week when i get hold of my sisters camera to show what im talking about

as for being street legal i have no idea the only thing that i can think is the bonnet is fiberglass and i have no idea on what the rules are for them ill look into it more when the car is all in undercoat and my driveway is fixed so i can actually drive it onto the street lol

just a few more pics

if you look at the top corner of the engine bay you can see how it doesn't sit flush or even straight

    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
    • Run some injector cleaner through it I had a similar issue that plagued me for months, even tried replacing the cat. If one or more injectors are blocked up the ecu sees ping so pulls timing and makes the tune rich overall, you'll see black smoke coming out of the exhaust and like me assume it's running rich but it could only be one or two cylinders  $10 bottle of injector cleaner and the next time I hit boost it pumped out a huge plume of black smoke, cleared the blockage and then ran great, if that's not the issue it's only a cheap thing to try haha
