Cleaned up and put the stock rims and hubcaps back on the Micra and added a little more air.

Retightened the front wheel bearings and a few hose clamps on the Wagz.

yesterday/today:

Re did all the vacuum lines with new Aeroflow lines. Cleaned and waxed parts of it. Polished my key, and ordered more OEM parts.

Also did a complete clean of the interior including the seats. Smells good :yes:

Washed the Micra for the last time and arranged insurance for the Pulsar.

Exchange will happen Tomorrow.

Exciting.

Congrats mate, look forward to hearing about what 'tweaking' / 'tuning' that can be achieved with a late model Pulsar ....

What did I do to my car today!! I got it freakin filthy dirty in the rain after washing it on the weekend!!

None of those mods are likely to void warranty so they may well happen :D

The phrase "it's Ridiculous" has been said alot this evening.

It's so much bigger than previous Pulsars and actually makes the 33 look small. The Pulsar is only about 100mm shorter. :O

I'm going to have to totally rearrange the garage to suit.

Despite being able to put a clenched fist between the tyre and guard, the front bumper is closer to the ground than the 31s after being lowered.

The boot is the biggest I've seen and yes I climbed in. Easily enough space for 2 of me, maybe 4 if stacked.

The dash looks awesome at night, the headlight height is adjustable at the flick of a switch, the 1.8L gets it moving just fine, Auto box is smooth as silk,

as is the general ride comfort. It's soooo quiet and comfy. Very easy to drive.

Really Quite Amazing. Can only imagine what an R35 is like.

Makes the 33 and especially the 31 feel Really Old.

Ridiculous I tells ya.

Rewired fuel pump, put another big cable between alternator and battery to bring fuel pump voltage up from 10v to 13.8.

Hoping to run it out of fuel on the dyno again but to make more that 430hp this time!

Also my drag radials are waiting for me at the Toll depot :)

In the next few weeks I need to source GTR rear suspension, get diff gears and pinion flanges swapped, fit GTR cradle, modify handbrake to suit, fit BM50 master cylinder, wire up overdrive on the auto (and maybe also lock up converter), get a wheel alignment and figure out how to fit 200L of eflex in the car to get me to Coota and back. I think I can do it!

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
