There are always good and bad stories about every workshop... I am sure that RP071 has a true story to tell but one experience for one person doesnt mean that it will happen to everyone.

I know these guys quite well as they are a customer of mine and they seem to know what they are doing.. They have built some very serious cars.

1. Bullet32 - Show 'n' Shine

2. Kat - Dyno comp and Show 'n' Shine

3. Bluprint - Show 'n' Shine

4. Ex!$t3nZ - Show 'n' Shine (ill be coming but my car will probably be parked with the toymods people)

Too true, I've heard some horror stories about Gas motorsport as well, but I'll leave that for another day.....

PM sent to everyone that was asking questions. Basically, I have told them that it is up to them wether they run their cars and all I have done is to share my experience.

was told there should be heaps of Evos and WRX

Awesome! The 4wd category should be entertaining then :rofl: I got my car back on friday, its cutting sick but unfortunatly its 2wd for the moment. It should be sorted for the day so im in!

Only the dyno comp though, my car still looks like sh1t.

Whatcha putting out at the rears now matey? Haha occasionally I do something silly like activate rwd mode and it makes for interesting driving :D

Kat should put all the Evo/WRX's to shame, even with small turbo's. Now the Supra is another matter.

"Kat's small turbos" I know that appears to be your favourite thing to say. Just pointing out they aren't a whole lot smaller than yours. It's only turbos I'm talking about here :rofl:

I'll be in! I spose it will be stupidly early though *sigh* :)

Small turbs are underated. I personally know of a dyno proven 505awkw made with 'little' 2530's. I like Kat's pair. They look great, the bang for the buck is there, she's got the runs on the board,... We're still talking turbos, aren't we?!? ; p

anyhoo, I'll be there with a different kind of JDM model for the show'n'shine. Go the Foz!

that 505 wasn't on pump fuel :P

No, but does that matter? Does a sub 10 second run in a street registered car matter either? Or a bunch of show'n'shine trophies? Or magazine features?

No, it had twin, 'little' low mounts on. That's what matters.

Ha! Got it back and it was pumping out just shy of 360kw atw. It lifted off the dyno the first run so we needed people in the boot.

The Autronic rocks.

    • 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
