GMB - I have Steve Caplice engineering the car, and I have an sr20de to drop in, I would like to go turbo, but on a bit of a budget, I might strap on a turbo later on for power to weight ratios around Ferarri territory :P

Anyway, I just picked up a steering rack from Todd, which lines up very nicely, and hopefully picking up a pair of hubs from Damo tomorrow - if he hasnt fogotten me and tells me where from - hint, hint :P

Ah your in good hands then :D

Sounds like its coming along pretty well for you, whats the plan for it: track, hill climbs, weekender???

Progress on my car isn't bad but i need to borrow a stock afm asap before i can do much more :banana:

well a big update for me.

surge tank and fuel system is in and running. oil cooler fitted. 25mm spacers and guard flaring done. injectors in and working. power FC in, modified and running. basicly only heaps of very minor jobs to do and its all finished.

i took it for a quick spin around the yard :D and i think it will be ok. haha.

How good are the guards though!!!!!! I have NEVER seen a set of guards rolled and flared so well, it's just a shame the rest of the work on the car isn't quite at that high standard.

Definatly in good hands ;)

But I can sympathise with you tho - sometimes parts just seem to fall out of the sky, other times... well

I am thinking the car will mostly be for weekend blats around back roads, but definatly a few hillclimbs, sprints and track days - Hopefully giving you skyline boys a run for your money :)

Tell me about it, all i need to do is borrow one for about an hour and then i can progress.

Looks like i will be doing other things over the weekend now instead of working on the car ;)

  • 2 weeks later...
hasn't your car been off the rd for almost 2yrs now glover?? what's going on with it?

Pretty close to its 2nd Birthday yeah :D

The car is ready but experiencing a few little electrical problems stopping me at the moment. Just waiting to get some coin together to get someone to look at it then hopefully turn the key so its running then tidy everything up, install parts and tune.

Busy this weekend with a wedding but *touch wood* i can get someone to look at it next week and have it running :)

My FMIC & Coilovers arrived from GReddy Japan finally and are getting fitted on my R34 GTR tomorrow! I'm soooooo excited!

Still searching for a nice carbon fibre bonnet, some ganadors will be going on soon too I think, a few other little things, clear indicators etc then new Deeeeeeeep Dish rims (My R34 GTR Rims will be for sale!) and then on to some internal work and making my final decision on what turbo/turbos to run....

So exciting :D

Going to remove the starter motor and bench test it to make 100% sure its ok then just go over all the wiring again.

I will be calling on Pimping Kustoms to do my gauges though :(

    • 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! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • 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.
