Steel for roll cage

Gtr Fiberglass FRONT BAR

Primer and paint (colour something bright ie lime green or blue)

Fuel cell with a booster fuel pump and a small surge tank with 2 bosch 044 feeding all new lines to the engine bay

New TEIN Super Street Coilover Kit

As it is a drag car i will be fixing up all other componets on the Suspension with a new Bush Kit for the wornout bush's

all redy has a LSD might see how well it will hold up or look into strengthing it.

Next will be saving for a gtst half cut with box send the box off to get strengthend and find some rb 26 rocker covers.

build the engine

Intercooler

Manafold

Turbo Garret T51 are quite cheap on ebay for genuine

greddy plenum

Pwr Raidator and then exhaust to fit the rear housing need to look at rules for muffled or un muffled or flow ect

Seat + harness and new steering wheel

Clutch

This is just a basic list of items needed

still thinking about that one with a auto it will make the power through out the run tho with manual i might have a bit of trouble with the cluch there is a C4 auto box out of the ford's and it has a nissan bellhousing and being built for 1800 so might look at that tho i look at more and more drag cars and they have a built auto so this might be the way to go... what might happen is buy a gtst half cut and use that box and untill it dies then replace with the built box..

and it will be a 33 motor tho i still need to read up if a motec or similar ecu can control the whole car not just a piggy back as i want to scrap the whole wireing harrness and dash wires and just make up my own harness fuel will be in a cell so no gauge for that Boost, oil water temp, oil pressure and volts ect will be 52mm gauges and speedo will be off the ecu. Does anyone have any answers for me if i can get away with this.

ah and started stripping the boot with the tar. worked a treat. pix to come

battrery mount in the engine bay was removed and some holes welded up and smoothed..

      Wanted to buy R200 longnose LSD 3.9 ratio

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      By sonicii · Posted

      Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.

      M35 Aftermarket Fuel Pump

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
