Yeah it did sell for a bit for a silvia but still cost me less than what i got for my 180 and is much more heavily modded. I was more after a heavily modded r32 but they were very scarce.

The pictures don't show how damn low it is and the massive stretch to fit 215 and 225 tyres over the wide rims :P

No one seems to know. There is some more damage on the passenger side (see first page), plus some theft. I think the thieves accidently bumped into the hand brake and the car rolled into some other cars. :P:D I will worry about the aesthetics once the engine is sorted.

forget the engine, I thought it was going to be a show car? Not much point in toying with a stock GTR mate. You should build/buy a hard tuned Jap GTR, like mine. Or maybe just have yours sprayed and use it at car shows. :P :P

hahahahaha

My GTR was driven to the panel beaters to get fixed while we wait for the computer and tune. I have been promised that it will all be ready by end of next week. :(

I was hoping to have it ready for Compak Attak this weekend. Maybe nxtime... ;)

ohhh. What has your car got on it?

not much mate, I was just winding NXTIME up. ;) Mine is pretty stock. :(

Charlie, great news on the car being nearly finished. When it's ready mate, I'll be out there with you for sure.

silver gts-t, I want to spray it in R34 Midnight Purple III, but I don't have the 6K to spare at the moment, and I don't want to leave the car in primer. Nor do I want to drive it with the damage to it. So, I will just respray it in stock colour to keep it inline with the rest of the car. won't attract any attention and blend it with the other million gunmetal R32's :(

Richard, can't wait for that day. I can't believe I have been so patient considering I am the most impatient person I know ;)

It's a pity WSID don't allow private days there anymore.

$2,000 for stock respray. Not going to remove any windows that will add over 1200 to the price. Will wait until the MP III for that.

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
