ive been away from a computer for the past two weeks because i have been driving this thing flat out!

monday came and i had to go and pickup some lunch for dad.

park the car and hop out, go inside order the food, as im collecting my food, i hear a bang, turn around to see a f**kING TRUCK IN MY FRONT END!

run outside, dude was pulling a youi, saw some big angry arab guy run out of a kebab shop and pretty much got outa there as fast as he could.

got his plates, made a police report that day and then filed a claim.

panel shop said the following needs replacing, Bonnet, grille, bumper + nostrils, driver side indicator and head light and some other little bits and pieces.

damage isnt that bad in pictures but here they are anyway

lucky i am insured.

so front end respray is pretty much done, so just have to fork out to do the rear end at the same time, guards will also receive a light skimming as well as cutting the inner guards for more clearance

future plans.

at the moment im saving money to have my motor built.

gonna use the same builder as tony.

forged bottom end

rods, pistons, machined crank and block

light head work and bigger springs

N1 pumps

gonna ditch the group as and probably go something bigger.

ill be having a chat on saturday with him to work it all out.

as for wheels, well, a friend and i have found some cheap TE37Vs so. 17X9.5+20 fronts, 17X10.5+17 Rears ;)

i dunno man, been having a bad run.

damaged my septum on monday, lower part of my nose. almost broke it and smashed the front row of my teeth out...

I can not find any over this way, am thinking of remaking mine. I have a plastic fabricator next to my new shed that i'm gona hit up.

yep haha, has holes for tweeters which i was going to do anyways
not many updates on the car.
its at the panel beaters, scored some panels for it cheap which will help alot.
shannons seem to have f**ked up the automatic redrawing so apparently i owe them about $400....
payments wont go through unless i call them and have them physically pull the cash out which is annoying.
anyways
thinking about mixing it up a bit
was going to sell the BBS but ill keep them and relip them to make them wider since the rear guards are going to be chopped out from the inside.
also tossing up between this extension on the GTR wing

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
    • FYI: Racebox RE7R Custom Tunes Released!   https://goracebox.com/.../2017-infiniti-q50-q60-re7r-tcm...   FOR GEN 2 (21+) VEHICLES, PLEASE SEE NOTE AT BOTTOM See more   But whomever tuned your car is the tuner you should go back to, AMS, Sonictune or BT Tune....
