This is true. But shit does sometimes happen. Fingers crossed it doesnt lol.

Yeah i know how easily plumbing can add up, especially when it runs the length of the car a couple of times over.

Ive never personally driven PI, but i can see where you are coming from. I was more thinking about the front and rear distribution, rather than left and right. But I dare say you'd have more experience in this than me haha.

Good luck man. Would love to see this thing screaming in the metal.

Lol, If we stack the car the oil tank will be the least of my worries dude. I was advised that weight in the rear isn't the ideal place. I'm sure everyone has there own ways of doing it though for what ever reason.

FWIW Mark Berry's R32 has the oil tank in the front also. Doesn't seem to slow him up any... :whistling:

would like to see that wiring loom, is it getting simplified?

Will be very simple as most of the electrics are gone. Ill post it up once I know what has been made shortly.

What I've been told for now is..

Ecu to engine loom

-cylinders

-coils

-throttle position sensor

-mat sensor

-ect temp

-map sensor

-crank angle sensor

-cam angle sensor

-oil pressure

Body loom

-rear lights

-engine switch

-starting circuit

-ecu power

-shift cut module

-diff controller

Motec data loom

-g sensor

-speed input

I'm sure I may have missed some but I think that's about right, will know when Gary Rowe finishes the loom.

Thanks James, will head over to see yours if you let me in your garage, little progress update...

Borrowed a set of wheels as a second set for testing and wtac, we ordered two sets of hankooks z221's in 295's/30, one is hard compound and one soft set for testing. This is what the fit up like on a 18x10 rim, our te37 are 18x10.5 so will fit perfect.post-19978-0-32985600-1377156505_thumb.jpgpost-19978-0-51952200-1377156585_thumb.jpg

    • 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.
