Haven't posted in ages, done a few things to my C35 since January...

The shift solenoids (the two gray and black cylinders in the bottom left of the pic) of the automatic trans went out, so had to replace them, since I was otherwise in 3rd gear whenever I was in drive:

Got rid of the 350Z wheels and picked up a set of CST Zero-1 Hyper V2's in 18x9.5 +30 with some 235 KR20's:

After that installed a HKS mushroom filter and blocked the bov for some nice flutter:

Rear speakers were blown ever since I got the car so I upgraded the speakers to Carrozzeria TS-F1740 II's front and rear:

Wanted to freshen up the engine bay a little by replacing the crusty old rubber hoses with silicone ones, very satisfying and fun to do:

Intercooler time; I decided it was time for a big front mount intercooler, an HPI Spec-S aluminum one:

Note to self: cutting further up and to the right a little would've given the piping more room to move around

Very happy with how it turned out, now it looks like a proper turbo car!

New D-Max D1-spec S15 tension rods up front since the stock ones were shot:

And a few days ago I swapped out the stock "Multi AV" system out for a Carrozzeria DEH-6600 head unit as well as separate climate controls:

Hopefully next is the R34 manual transmission swap! Been collecting all the parts for awhile now, just need the transmission and I'll be ready.

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
