Silver 32 Gtst

[spranga]

Been on here a while but has taken me a while to post up my car. Bought from forum member in January after selling my MX5.

It has full exhaust, stock turbo, Power FC, FMIC, boost controller, 1.5 way low ratio (not sure what ratio but it is short!) LSD, upgraded radiator, BC Gold coilovers....178rwkw at 14psi

More pics and mods to come....

After adding rear spoiler and coilovers I bought some new wheels.

First pic with new wheels. More pic on the way.

Interior mods, Nardi wheel and nismo gear knob.

I am looking for another quality knob as I don't like most of the nismo ones. This one is a little square at the top compared to what I want. Any ideas? It must be heavy (see next pic!) and a direct screw in to the factory gear stick thread... I hate the ones with rubber grommets which don't feel solid.

Nismo short throw unit

Wheels are Kosei Direzza RCS 17x8 +33 front and rears 17x9 +33. Made in Japan and according to my research they are forged???? (Can anyone confirm? They seem light but not convinced they are forged. They look similar to WOrk KAI CR but not as nice Don't like how I have to use hex lugs rather than my Rays nuts which weight F*&Kall and look better). I am trying to find some extended blue lugs which will rice them up a bit.

I need to roll the rear guards (front already done) before I can fit the rears. I may also add my 5mm spacers and/or go to a 245/40 tyre (currently 235s). Front is very close to flush as is...

Funny thing is the Kosei's look smaller than the GTT rims. I think it is the extra lip on the GTT rims and the fact they are black.

Almost there with some power mods.

GTR fuel pump

GCG RB25 Steel wheel BB Turbo. Gave up on the HKS 2530 as most of them were too old and expensive for a s/h turbo. Got this cheapish with a good history so will see how it goes. Will be a bit laggy but good for track work. Tossing up whether to get injectors or just install it all and tune around the fuel supply. If the tuner thinks it will be 100% safe I will probably just go for it. Is 220kw asking too much?

and cheapie but strong (as in it actually seems to work) strut brace. Please excuse the sad engine bay:(

Nelson did his stuff on the rear guards this morning. Easy to trust him to do a great job. @$65 per corner money well spent.

Mixed wheel combo gone. Rears are slightly stretched so the profile is not quite as tall so gap is bigger:neutral:

But no more chicken legs from behind!

Now off to Tempe to get the tyres swapped over as the ones that came with the wheels are almost shredded.

Thanks Tim.

A bit scary posting a build thread when there are so many higher quality, big buck and skillfully developed cars on here. Looks like there is a place for everyone though, even my little GT

He can roll them completely flat and flare as well if necessary. He is the only guy I know who does most of the car dealer work as well as some Porsche and Ferrari work. Nice bloke. Give him a call. Ph 0432 109 331.
