Very tidy! Looks like a lot of love went into that build.

What's the story with the no smoking sticker on your ashtray? that's a bit random lol

[DaymoR32]

Thanks, yes it was definitely well loved!

The previous owner put all the stickers all ver the car, i've removed most of them from the windscreen, i didnt actually know thats what the sticker meant on the ashtray, might leave it there now i know!

[Murray_Calavera]

Ah, yeah it's Japanese for no smoking

Very tidy car, also great price! I saw it up for sale on FB.

If you need brakes pads to stop that beast, PM me

 

[DaymoR32]

thanks! yeah as soon as  i saw it i just had to have it. it was basically what i dreamt i was going to do with my last one but without all the hassle and its already engineered! 

 

I'll definitely be in touch when it comes to ordering some new pads!

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

and all the headaches of building it already done lol....

These days I'm all in for bought not built LOLOL...

[DaymoR32]

yeah theres just a few little bits that need finishing off.

The wipers are not wired in - i luckily have an old rb25 loom in my garage that i can unpick the plug from. but its still gonna be a bit of a task. and i absolutely despise wiring!

Also need to put the washer bottle back in once he sends me it. hopefully all that wiring is present.

Horn doesnt work either, again hopefully thats a simple fix. just want to make sure all these issues are fixed and keep it properly roadworthy.

Will need to make an enclosure for the pod filter too, thats the fun part though. means i can practice my welding skills on scrap stainless from work :)

Very nice man ? not much left to do really 

[UWISSH!]

Sweet ride mate. Good tasteful mods.One of the nicer 32’s getting around that’s for sure

[DaymoR32]

Put the 3D printer to good use and printed this cup holder out of ABS. Gonna change the design a bit and get rid of the GTR logo and make the fit a bit smoother across the top. But it works for now!

[DaymoR32]

Spent an hour or so unpicking 5-6 wires from an old rb25 wiring loom I had lying around. Tesa taped them up and found the connectors in the existing wiring loom and hooked them up. I now have working wipers! That’s one less thing to worry about come rego time!

Attempted to take the rear wiper off but the nut is all rusted out and corroded. Going to try and weld some scrap metal too it so that I can undo it and remove the whole motor assembly. Will use one of the blanking plugs from the boot floor so I’m not left with a hole in the glass.

Will 3D print some new bungs to fill the holes in the boot floor and stop water getting in.

Just a small update, did a little bit of tidying up to the car.

First thing on the list was removing the rear wiper as it didnt work at all (there's still a few little wiring gremlins with the car)

Before:

After: (used a bung from the boot floor to fill the hole)

Next up was installing some LED interior lights, found this pretty cool SMD PCB light which is actually super bright. makes the interior feel a bit more modern at night!

Before:-

After:

Then installed a set of aero wipers on the front, got rid of the horrible metal ones:-

Next mod on the list is installing this when it gets delivered on Tuesday/Wednesday :)

I've also ordered some c-spanners from the UK, hopefully they will be here this week too. then i can raise the car a little bit, possibly get some wider rear tyres if they'll fit - on 235/45/17's at the moment, hoping a 245 may squeeze in once i raise the backend a bit. then i'll get a wheel alignment done.

A quick photo of the side of the car to give an idea of current ride height

It's kinda not surprising the rear wiper wasn't working. It was installed on the wrong side of the car!

Haha really? I prefer it without regardless, water just runs off the window anyway!

[DaymoR32]

Carbon dmax roof spoiler arrived on Tuesday, went straight to burnings and got some sikafkex 258 - the automotive windscreen stuff. Cleaned the window and the spoiler with isopropyl alcohol and applied a decent amount of sikafkex to the spoiler.

 

then chucked a ratchet strap over it and placed a bit of weight on top for extra pressure...

 

Left it to set for 12 hours overnight and it’s safe to say she’s on there for good now! I only have garage photos for now but I’m happy with the look

[DaymoR32]

Also had a GTR seat laying around in the garage for a couple of years, thought I’d chuck it in to see how it feels (it’s not in the best condition though). Much happier with the driving position as I’m now sat a bit lower. Now I just need to hunt down a passenger seat and rear bench!

[DaymoR32]

My c spanner’s finally arrived on Friday which meant I could raise the car up 15mm all around, however more importantly my carbon jun style front splitter arrived! Again, I’ve only got garage pics for now but it makes the front look heaps better and gets rid of the paint damage on the oem splitter!

ive also ordered some replacement ancillary belts as they are starting to squeak on startup, hopefully they arrive this week.

Awesome build ! Are you making that power with stock internals on e85 ?

how did it go on 98 with 18psi tune ?
