That's pretty decent in terms of pricing, tempting LOL..

For the money you’d be crazy not to, putting old manky looking bolts in a fresh bay makes it look shit 

[r32-25t]

seeing as I can’t do a great deal with the front at the moment I decided to do some work at the back of the car 

in go some rear camber arms to stand the wheels up a lot more

once installed I dialed the camber down to half a degree, the toe is still all over the shop because I didn’t have the string lines to be able to measure it 

[r32-25t]

Bought the new rear housing and had it ceramic coated 

and fitted it to the tarbin

I got told yesterday the pistons have arrived and will hopefully see some progress with the engine soon

Lol there no way I’d put up with the lag a turbo big enough to flow that would have

Never say never. You said that about never putting a single turbo on your car too.

 

Quoted for future reference. 🤪

Lol and that improved response not killed it

Well seeing as I couldn’t go to work because of getting beer flu I decided to work on the gtr once I had enough energy.

Pulled the rest of the interior out and removed the battery wiring, the battery tray ready to re wire the entire boot. Then I fitted the surge tank in the corner of the boot 

then started plumbing the tank into the fuel lines I already had 

I had to wait for 60° fitting to do the last line as it wouldn’t run where I wanted it to without it 

I’ll be wiring in some solid state relays and etc, just need the engine to turn up and the new wiring harness before I wire it all up 

[r32-25t]

Fitted all the brake lines back into the bay with all new clips to hold them onto the firewall 

also fitted some nismo braided brake lines as they follow the factory routing and make a lot less nervous that they may end up touching and rubbing through

also some new break clips as it seem the old line stretched the original ones 

[r32-25t]

Then I bled all the brakes using good quality brake fluid, put all the wheels back on and now I pretty much can’t do anything until the engine and wiring harness arrive

Looking nice!  Hard to beat a nice clean engine bay!  I see you’ve given the ABS module a tidy up?  They’re a tricky shape and setup to be able to do much with. So tempted to delete or relocate mine.  Even just route the pipes somewhere else. Lower on the firewall maybe?   Or just stop being a wanker and finish the car! 😂

Wiper motor looks nice as well, how did you clean it? Or did you buy new?

i also had it vapor blasted and then painted the black bit to make it look as new as possible.

How have you found the steering feel with the pump in the boot?

It’s good, if it wasn’t for the fact you can hear it wind up before you start the car you’d never know

thanks mate

Something little but has been a pain in the ass for ages 

the spring for the fuel flap went missing when I gave it to someone for paint matching years ago and I was able to buy one new 

quickly clipped it onto the flap and now when I open the door it pops open again. As I said it’s a really small thing but sometimes they make big differences
