Sorry to all that I offended, had a go at, said crap too I had a very bad week last week with wreckers being crap work being done crap and people not shutting up about my bumper being black (not on hete) and so I do appologise.

To the tyre stretch I did try a 235/40R18 and lower the jack and hit hard up against my rear guard and the nexens I had on before were only a month old and they had two so i got 215/35R18. The tyre is nexen N5000 and i highly recommend it. When fitted to its proper size wheel it is quiet, grippy and good value for a Korean tyre.

The headlights are damaged on the mounts and housings so they need to be replaced. Personally i love my car I am so f**king happy with how it sits, looks and turned out.

The bumper is getting painted or if I find an Aero bar, I'll get it and have it painted. I'm thinking of getting the JP simple lip for the base model bumper if i cant find Aero (PM me if your keen aswell to save on postage)

Thule roof racks fresh from the USA will be here within the fortnight with the deflector and will be going on. Need ideas what to put on them?

Once again I am super sorry people for my attitude.

Oh and I'm going Oni camber too

I have never really understood the roof rack with a cheap pretender bmx or hipster single speed on it mod...

Just sayin.

If you ride, use it to move your bike.

Can you snowboard in Newcastle?

Do you surf?

Do oyu own a lawn mowing business?

If you dont use what you put on the roof rack its just a new form of hipstering....

Your car looks good, dont make it undriveable and defected just for demon camber..

It looks cool in J but they do a lot more regarding spring rates etc than just lengthen/shorten control arms.

I dont mean to be negative but a car is no good to anyone no matter how good it looks if you cant drive it because they cancel your rego...

Ill probably just motivate you to do it more :)

//End old man rant

Roof racks is a new hipster thing??????

I should clarify:

Giant basket roofracks with wind deflectors on stupid low cars with a "style" addition bolted in such as a snow board or colour matched BMX.

Reminds me of dudes in skinny jeans wearing thick rimmed glasses without lenses.

I will use mine tho. Mine are thule not crappy Yakima racks, i spent money for quality. My deflector will not be sticker bombed. I will use them more than people think. Personally i love the look.

Oh does anyone have a passenger side front weathershield for a M35 for sale?

Another reason is for long shit i will be getting stuff I find and what not. I don't have the luck of folding seats like yous do I have a port hole the size of an ants rectum so it will come in handy and add to the look.

you can do a small mod to the rear seats reclining mechanism.. and modify the rear wall .... to make a split fold rear

I'm not a fan of Oni camber, stretched tyres, wheels poking out of the guards, roof racks, etc., but other than that, this car looks f*cking awesome!

I'm not telling you not to do the 30deg of camber on your car, but just be aware of how much extra police attention you'll get for those kinds of mods, especially if you're still on your P's.

Seriously, dude, car looks like it's going to be killer once the bumper is changed and/or painted and all the minor little things are finished - good work! Also, I can't believe I missed this thread and only just found it now (and read the whole thing)!

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
