Did you send them off to have them custom made or did you pick them up from Japan?

Picked them up off yahoo auctions, but they were definitely custom made by/for someone originally!

I wired a Z32 ECU with nistune into my S1 RB25DET stagea today. Its running well with the z32 afm in it but will need a tune when i put the Nismo 555's in it

Well done! Did you cut all the wires off the old plug and solder them on to another plug or did you get a loom extension?

I used a Field harness extender to splice the Z32 ecu in as a piggyback. The stock stagea ecu remains to control the auto

Basically I used that loom i got off you as a guide, but tweaked it a little for the z32 ecu

I think that I could get the z32 ecu to control the auto too, but i can't figure out the corresponding wires between the 2 ecus for the auto. From what i can find on google, the Z32TT uses a re4r03a, the Z32 NA and my car (RWD) both use a RE4R01A

I haven't driven it yet or tested whether the auto is happy with the current configuration, but i reckon i've nailed the hard bit

Finally got my new headlights in; when I got them there was an amber LED array that lit up with the driving lights/squid rings; was pretty sure this breached ADRs so Brad lent me a hand rewiring them up to the blinker; had to wire in the old blinker globe to up the resistance on the circuit to slow down the blinks too. A little hodge-podge, but the end result looks good imho. Hopefully the seals hold up :rofl:

The front of your car looks really good. Glad you got the blinker speed sorted. :thumbsup:

Cheers mate. You were spot on about using the old globe being the easiest way. I threw some bullet connectors onto the spare blue wires you put in & snipped the appropriate connector off the old loom - easy as. Really appreciated your help :thumbsup:

Spent an hour this morning fitting a piece of mesh in the front bar.:blush:

Finished fitting the rear after arguing with the corner clips for quite a while...:rant: Didn't want to damage the old bar, because its going to a new home shortly.

Looks great, was so paranoid about marring the new paint, so was taking it very easy. No scratches; so very pleased with the time taken.

Pics once the mastic has set in the mesh on the front bar & it's fitted.:thumbsup:

cannot wait to see it dale.

oh and for the C34 guy's.....some porn for sale......if only I had a 260rs!!! http://www.importmon...%20114%203%2024

offset is a bit low

Didn't have thse foldy things on the inside of the bumper to hold the mesh in place Dale?

All finished now; looks teh sexy; I keep on wandering out to the garage to look...

It has ten flat tabs spaced around the opening, so I just trimmed slots in the mesh ( I'm using the trusty SAAS "Leb mesh") to fit over them, then I bent the edge of the mesh against the structure of the bar.

I didn't end up cutting the centre spar out of the opening; I think it'll end up being too flimsy & cracking the paint.

I don't have the clips that clamp on to the tabs, so I just glued the mesh in a few places around the opening. It was fairly well fixed in position 'cos I cut the slots pretty tight, just wanted to make sure it stays put.

Pics in the morning; once it's had a bath.

Cheers mate, I'm very pleased, been a long time coming.

Those would be pretty tough on an m35 too; 18x9, +24 offset. The rubber is well past it's used by date tho'.

Was thinking they would look quite good on an m35 as well with the right stance.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
