well pick up my car today with the new turbo fitted :) trail fitted the body kit side skirts and rear bar very very average fit :down: will be fitting bonnet tonight, so ill wait and see how good that fits

got the rx7 back with the engine removed! (was going to do it myself but no time at the moment and need to get things cracking if its gonna make the start line next season!)

will now strip the engine of all the crap on it and the gearbox then its off for freshening!

the engine bay is pretty tidy, but will clean it up and repaint.

Body kit fitment not to bad side skirts need a fair bit of work but front and rear just a lil trim here and there and will be a perfect fit,

Guess i better do an update on mine, it's sat in a corner of the shed since i picked it up from having the cage done, so this weekend i pulled my finer out and gave the inside a cleandown and started painting it. at this stage it won't be back on the road til jan, but hopefully before christmas. On another note, anyone interested in buying it?

^^^ love the bonnet and a nice choice of kit, 34's can look horribly wrong but that kit makes it look wider and neater.

GT-R made 270kw on 15psi and made 1547.3 n.m of torque.

will wind up the boost (around 22-23psi) next tune to see what i can get out of it.

    • 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.
