I told you what you should do if you were gonna mod a 34 sedan or Stagea, Moh....

(the answer is: Don't)

Or if you must, buy someone else's project, the bigger the project the bigger the savings.

Yeah it's been awesome, am very lucky. I still think the share is ridiculously undervalued given the company prospects and asset potential, which is why I haven't sold out. Just gotta think of the profits as reinvestment instead of taking it out.

88e is doing a good job of flying under the investment radar, which will send it into orbit if/when we cop good news and mainstream media starts reporting it. That's pretty much how it ten bagged last time.

 

I'm still in the red, bought in too late :P

I'm gonna disagree with this.
I've rebuilt every aspect of the pulsar minus the gearbox (stay tuned for that one).
A few reasons why it was a bad choice:
Seller was asking a lot and very firm on price and extra parts.
70% of the professional work done was super poor. It worked and was hidden, but not good enough to anything beyond occasional road duties.

Hindsight: build from the ground up and learn to do it properly in the process. Or better yet, start with another's project that has some goodies THEN tear it down and remove all the shit.

True, its probably best you can either a) Vouch for the car/owner and b) Absolutely know what you are looking at.

It can obviously burn you badly, but if you know what you are doing its the way forward.
However usually done through having been burned in the past, but hey 99% of people here on SAU will know what they are doing regarding other people's projects and know when to spot a bad apple

Clearly you haven't read any of the OP posts in the modifications area, or been anywhere near the facebook group.

OK...I'll pay that.. It is pretty clear a lot of the Facebook group queries certainly consult FB before google..


It's so true but makes zero sense. Maybe the day people can't be bothered responding on fb will be the day people stop asking before Google.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
