Few people have been asking what I'm doin with my cars these days. For those that asked/interested, here's some of the shit that I've started that I'll probably never finish...

Project 1:

AE86 for race use. So far:

$650 AE86

$350 TRD 2 Way LSD

$1600 CA18DET, gearbox, ECU, loom, turbo etc

$800 8-point Rollcage

$100 Sabelt racing harness

$27 Fire Extinguisher

Project 2:

Street driven widebody R32...

BN Sports R32 Widebodykit (50mm either side)

SSR 18"x9.5" in front and SSR 18"x10.5" at the back

RB25DET (Still being built/pieced together)

Trust TD06-25G (Will most probably be sold as it is totally non street use friendly... starts spooling at 5000rpm and then wooshka)

HKS external wastegate

custom lowmount manifold

no more details due to it being a combination of being a top secret and "make/get as we go" project.

Some teaser pics (with stock sized rims for reference):

I'll update this thread... whenever something happens... which won't be soon.

I think I should just sell it all and get a Vol... i mean a Stagea.

I just saw in the for sale section a 1989 version of my car's (mine 1993) selling for 10 grand... so I'm tempted to sell mine too. With the new P-Plate rules, it seems my car's actually eligible :D

I want to finish the hachi in a couple of months. Driftline being the efficient guys they are should have the engine in before the end of next month (maybe even next week). After that its all just cosmetic shit and bolt on stuff.

I might just slap a Vertex kit on the R32, respray it and sell it.

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
