Perfectly fine mate, almost ready to go again (didn't know the engine had a problem) ?. The Nismo donks still run cast pistons (atleast to my knowledge). What is so good about them? What exactly

frankly, in the current and likely future market a good condition car heavy with Nismo parts is probably a better investment than bitcoin.... also, if you are in a country with no experience or p

I don't think I've seen someone buy so many things before even having the car

A lot of nismo stuff I had for my other car. A lot of nismo things are universal. But I know what I like and I'm going to end up buying it anyways. Might as well get it and have it waiting. Hoping to have a productive day today.

I also tried to install the steering boss and steering wheel. But the steering wheel ring is not drilled right or something. The holes don't line up. Also I don't have a way to plug in the horn I dont think. Maybe the boss is for a different model. I need to look up the part number, But I think it was for a kouki r32 and I have a zenki. Not sure whats going on. But I will probably just have the adapter ring custom made and drilled so it can secure it together.

Correct, I just did the end tanks. I wasn't about to get all Mr. clean with hand polishing lol. That would be so damn tedious.

Another busy day today.

Also detailed the engine bay. The picture doesn't do justice. I am most impressed with this part.

it mounts in factory points. It cant be crooked. It only goes in one way, the same way it came out lol. Nismo is pretty spot on with everything. If you are talking about how the intercooler looks relative to the car, then yes they are not level to each other....that is how the intercoolers and mounting points are designed. Factory and aftermarket. It's all about the end tanks meeting up to factory hoses. Not to mention, they lean forward. Everyone always thinks intercoolers are verticle like a radiator lol. Just how the car is designed. Also, in the pics with no bumper, one side of the car is jacked up.

Put a titanium tomei straight pipe I had lying around on the car today. Opened it up a little bit. Which also gave me a chance to look at the underside.

are you getting a set of etched LMGT4s?

Nah, cant decide if I like them. Never really been a fan of nismo wheels. Maybe 18x10 +20 LMGT1. Although, I don't think the black would look bad on the gun metal color. I feel like I would need to add more black accents to the car if I had black wheels. Like carbon fiber lip, canards etc. I am waiting on tires for the Advan RG. I think those will be my wheel of choice for now. Always been my favorite one piece wheel. I will also probably get the panasports relipped and barreled to a proper size. I already have 8 sets of wheels lying around lol. Don't need anymore.

haha fair enough mate.

Colour is my issue. Nismo don't make the etched ones in what i want.

Hence i have my old school rare Bee*R's.

Though i've been having a look at miesters recently...

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
