Yay.

What's up with the car?

welll fun fact....

It was on the dyno on Friday and was all going well... Started to hiccup a little bit on higher boooooost (E85).

So trying to nut out what is causing that and then back up onto the Dyno for the final run.

Is that the last outstanding item before you get it back?

Nice, hopefully they can get it all sorted soon.

I was secretly hoping to get my car back in a couple of months a beat you to it ;)

Joke of it is, if i didn't want to go to E85 i would have had it back about 3 months ago.

Motor rebuilt again, head work done, practically all of the wiring in the car is new, a heap of suspension bushes replaced, shocks serviced (ill be replacing them soon anyway) new alternator, radiator complete flush and clean x3, drive shafts serviced and bearings replaced where needed, new Gauges, new Oil cooler,

uhhh

all the shit for the Haltech and E85

That's just from the top of my head. Ultimate have basically looked for any little issue and have fixed it.

and then stemming from there work...

What needs doing:

Rear diff

New interwarmer (at some point)

Complete suspension overhaul (im leaning towards a full nismo setup e.g Links, sway bars, and shocks). If it isn't full nismo it will be nismo links and sway bars with MCA blues

What i want to do:

Fujitsubo TI exhaust with TI front pipes.

Quaife front diff

What i'm undecided on:

Gearbox rebuild or putting an OS gearset in it

So i'm actually getting closer to the car being finished.... But a few big $$ expenses to get there.

New GTR badges made for the front guards to replace the "GT" badges. :woot:

You're joking right? In case anyone mistakes it for a Lamborghini?

Besides the GT badges on the side are a generational thing like the distinctive rear lights. Why remove them?

I de badged the gt badges cause I don't like the look lol

These gtr badges are small. Basically the same size as the gt badges.

Realized they were small as I recognized the Razer mouse mat :)

I dunno about incorrect badges on cars....

Look forward to seeing how they look. You need to get this thing back and enjoy driving it again :)

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
