Finally have mine on order.

Massive fark around due to retard I handed my content to not putting in the system I had handed them in.

But, it's all fixed now.

Have read about a few people having stuff arounds with the ordering process... which design did you end up going for?

Mine wasn't due to the plate, it was purely due to previously surrendered content that they didn't process properly.

Got the classic.
Looks the best.

Far out I deliberated over which style...ultimately settled on the "JDM plate" - the writing at the bottom just looked better balanced to me!

After deciding I wasn't going to order I caved in and ordered at 11:55pm 5 mins before the discount ended, I went with the "JDM plate" also as I thought it looked cleaner with the writing at the bottom but I think they both look great it was a tough choice.

 

The issue we are going to have is the pre pressed mounting holes are too high up, they will bolt up but they need to be about 2cm lower on the plate to fit the rear bracket of the 32 at least. They should of sent them out blank so we could drill ourselves, will play around with it when they come anyway.

Yeah - I'm not happy with the front yet. Going to get a bit of aluminium to mount to the factory mount and lift up a bit - trying not to drill holes in the plate itself


I had no option but to drill a hole in each top corner of the plate to mount it in the same spot where the previous plate was if not it was going to face downwards [emoji22]d6a540d82e15b5a9cee803b886e7c9e7.jpg

the back looks ok but I'd still be re drilling the holes on the rear to mount them up a bit higher to fit the bracket. But damn that looks bad on the front :( I have a white 32 also and ordered the same style as you, tried to cancel my order but they wouldn't let me so not sure what to do now.

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
