So my 6 massive boxes arrived today! was like Christmas when i got home from work!!!! took some photos will put them up soon the list includes...

genuine front bar, carbon fiber larger lower lip, headlights with eyelids, some crazy looking bosch zenons, radiator support attached to nose cut, genuine bonnet, genuine masa guards, custom bonnet hinges, rear flares and a few other bits.

Hopefully get stuck into it this weekend :thumbsup:

Cant wait to see this one in black? The rear end will need a decent wing, rear bar and chunky sideskirts to make it look right.

Bastid. My abflug kit and eyelids is three weeks from landing. I will be just as enthused me thinks.

nice work, tho i do like the stock rear wing :thumbsup: thinking about rear bars and skirts tho, i wouldnt mind finding a vspec rear bar and drastically modding it to fit the stag :D

ok some pics from today...

Note the welding on the bonnet hinges, looks like a lot of effort was put into getting this car done right.

Oh yeah, seen a few now with GTR variant front bars, good luck fitting a Vspec II rear bar. I reckon a z-tune bonnet, autech wing and nismo or masa skirts would really set it off. Ditch the roof racks aswell.

where did u get the splash guards from and how much, if you dont mind me asking???

they came off the stagea that had this conversion previously, they came with everything else. To me they just look like stagea gaurds that have had bits attached to them

Looks good. Nice to see all the genuine r34 parts have been used. The front bar reo is worth over a grand all up

The peice of foam accross the middle alone is $150!!

I see the carbon lip has a bit of battle damage. They hang fairly low. Mine sits at approx 70-80mm clearance from the ground. A bit too low.

When do "plan" to have it all together?

I was quite chuffed to see it had a genuine reo :( the lip I will have repaired and painted black, it's a bit bigger than the stock lip.

I "plan" to start this weekend, but before I go to far I will be getting the panels edged and and backs painted so the whole car can be blended in the booth avoiding putting it on and taking it off too many times

Pic's of rad support? If it has the full R34 support, there will be a bit of time cutting modifing to get it to fit

That lip is actually a one peice version of the factory lip and vspec lower diffuser.

Good idea is to get some 50x3mm alloy flat bar and fix it to the under side and profile it to match the front curve. That way when going thru drivways etc it will scrape the alloy and not wear away the carbon lip. :(

I will get some more pics this afternoon when I get home, the rad support is still attached to the old cars skirts and rails buy after a quick look last night it looms pretty straight forward :(

good idea about the metal under the lip too! :O

Teren, I do plan to come and meet you to compare the AWD chassis to your RWD one soon, but I'm a bit under the weather at the moment and trying to get better.

Hey mate, all good get better first! I'm planning on starting to strip the front of the car on saturday (hopefully) always welcome to come over and check it out :blush:

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
