Couple carbon pieces installed before we start the big budget build this week. Made some room on the pool table. I really was sceptical about changing the look of it but I actually really like it! Replica jun eBay lip and trunk bonnet fit pretty good👍

If anyone knows where I can get a carbon side skirt extension send me a link👍 I’m looking for the full length not just the rear skirt pod. 

I really wanted to try one of these manifolds and not spend 3k on a hyper tune. I must say I’m very happy with the quality, 1200 to my door with fuel rail and throttle👍 Thanks np boosted for the hook up.  Also redid the rega’s with some sand paper and some spray bomb action.  About 10 hours sanding and 1 hour painting and they look pretty good for 50 bucks. Cheers mates single build starting right away just waiting for the manifold

The rivets seem to fit much tighter the higher you get your leg up in the air. Very important if you can get both legs up in the air even better. Carbon exhaust shield to cover up the bunged burnt area from my exhaust

One last pull on the twins before we rip her apart and add another couple hundred horse power. this is as roughly 500+whp 22psi. pulling it to about 7800...listen to the 4" exhaust just cracking the earth! almost makes me sad to go single but i think im done with the twins. i hope my 6466 has same spool as my -5's.

Your 6466 will come on way faster then the -5s, I went from -5s to a 6466 .84ts and it’s all in at least 500rpm earlier 

i may have went overkill on the exhaust side but ill try it and swap it out later if no good. i went with a 1.15 a/r...

ya ill keep you posted on it mate. build will be done in no time im just waiting for my 6boost manifold,  im going to use the motor that's in the car and push to 22psi. when my built motor is done i will try at 30 on e85. let you know my results.

Will be keen to see how it goes, I’m looking at swapping mine to a 1.0 when I put the 2.8 in it, so looking forward to comparing them 

hey mate i know for a fact your knowledge is heaps and above mine. im going to run 30 psi with a prp brace motor fully built, is currently being machined, maybe grout fill half. not a budget guy but I like to keep things very simple if I can. i have always ran a completely stock head and only replaced valve guides when motor is apart. i dont plan on revving it past 8 thousand ever so do you reccommend any other head work i should do other than the guides? maybe double valve springs from supertech with some mild ass cams. again i dont two step the car, i don't over rev it, occasionally drag it once in a while thats it. 8 litre sump with oil cooler head restrictor and spool gears in a n1 pump

Will cut for parts! I’ve owned my small little company busybeavertreeservices.ca since hischool, Sometimes you gotta black right out to pay for parts! Jobs like these are gold for getting builds done, this is my other passion than my family and my cars. The trees keep a guy well and out of trouble!

Definitely will need the valve spring as mine floated way before what you’re chasing, some drop in cams will help up high but take away from from down low which you can fix by raising compression. 
 

big sump and stronger oil pump are a must, you’d be surprised how bad the factory sump is even with an aftermarket baffle installed 

yup n1 pump will be in the bin i screwed that up.....gunna go with a nitto pump and a 1.3 head restrictor. thanks for help cheers mate. i ordered a complete dual valve spring supertech kit with hks 264 9.1(8.7) camshafts last night....will the double valve springs be to much for my setup and screw anything else up? i will be shimming the camshafts too if needed obviously. i couldn't find a kit with the single valve spring so said fak it and ordered the double.

i bought this kit today. i didn't like the idea of using different companies for different parts so sad fak it this is it...best kit i could find with everything i wanted.  ive had enough of forum research and clicking away at this computer for 7 days straight with no sleep. ben (BK) has been a great help through this and i ended up getting some kelford cams as well. mechanic requested. cheers mates this build will be nuts im wpc treating the whole thing and will be able to give some real good data on it once we run it. and thanks for your help mate. this has been a huge learning curve im finding out how much of a newb i really am ha. trying tho, working hard, putting in th eresearch, paying for parts,talking to lots of mates, pumping tree jobs out, living low. cheers chap thanks again your a good mate.

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
