Is yours a copy of the stock one or does it extend further back? (mines not stock - it goes back to the fire wall)

On the gtt i believe you need a gtr bar & lip to fit the diffuser...which then requires a gtr bonnet and front fenders - not really worth the effort.

I'm sure i've seen a gtt bolt on diffuser somewhere though..

Nah mine only extendeds to before the sump, it's pretty average...

Haha yeah think I'll do that :)

Thanks ant! Will do, not sure what I'm doing this weekendbut will let you know.

Could also add beer and music :D

Yeah I've seen a diffuser on a gtt altia body kit (my front bar) looked awesome!! But isn't worth the 1500 the guy said he paid for it haha.

Lol - just asking as I may buy another (sacrificial) one in the future. It's a little annoying when you drop something in the engine bay and it don't fall out the bottom.

Ha yep, makes it easy for servicing too, easy to clean the oil of the engine after it pouring out when removing the filter to ha

I think I still have a 10mm socket in my engine bay somewhere

Dropped it while working and didn't fall out the bottom, do you think I could find it? No chance

Oh Martin, I dropped a 10mm in my engine bay when I fixed my valve clearances. Took me so long to find but I refused not to find it cause every piece of that set is like a baby to me haha. Found it sitting under my turbo heat shield in-between the block and the turbo intake pipe. Took sooooo long to knock it out of there and into my face haha.

Hmm a happy worker isn't always an efficient worker huh? :)

If it is pouring rain, my driving ability will be limited... Picked the car up on low boost and E30 fuel and still getting wheelspin through to 3rd in the dry, I'm not looking forward to rain :P

Very nice result

Maybe have to start running semis or some KU36's on the rear

i normally do run them but had crap tyres on for the dyno and for the diff to bed it, but will get some RSR's or something very soon as its pretty useless.... Good for the lolz! :D BUT it also restricts me from being silly on the road and with the car being so nice to cruise in i am happy as it is..... Will show you guys :)

^Sounds good mate.

Weather looks like it could be improving, either way from the responses above, i think it will go ahead as planed rain or not (check this thread on sunday morning for updates, if theres nothing, than it will be on!), if the rain worries you, just bring another car and come have a chat, some food and beer!

Also, i will be bringing my DSLR along to grab some pics of the day, if you want some pics of your car just let me know on the day etc.. i have been playing around with photo editing abit lately so could use some extra images to play with :).

Cheers,and see you there.

Its times like these I wish I had my full licence so I could take the S15 out so you could take some cool pics.

A bit disapointed that the previous owner hasn't taken care of the paint better though. Notably There is a scratch on the front right quarter, stone chips on bonnet, scrapes on the front bumper (from not angling on driveways Im guessing), and scratches on the rear bumper from backing past a nail out of a fence (which gauged into the side of the rear bumper). It also has tree sap damage on bonnet and bootlid.

Polished it and waxed it for 4 hours the other day...still lots of grime on the paint thats yet to come off. Also unbolted the plastic front wheel arch linings, and got a buildup of mud/grime out from between the front quarter and the sill. Luckily there was no rust, but got all the stuff out then hosed it out to remove all the crap.

I can get you a driver for the S15 if you want.... He is actually an S15 driver anyway but some fool P plater slammed into him so its in the panel shop for another 6 weeks!

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
