Yeah funzy, thats next. I'd like to fit a Capel motorsports diffuser, but atm I'm just going to flatten it out under the ass from the diff back, get a decent angle and smooth up the airflow a little. thats going to happen in the next couple of weeks. the budget datto is starting to take shape. :cheers:

if you get some bits sorted i can nock you up a set when you come try these wheels on.

phew , i thought it looked horrible in the first pic , looks much better in them! , how far under the car does the front diffuser go?

its 700mm deep, so back to the swaybar. 5 inches past the bar at the front, 4 inches at the sides

been tinkering on my car getting it ready fo a tune.

one thing thats been bugging me was how untidy all the wiring looked on top of the throttle boddies, so i made up a carbon cover for it

That cover looks the goods man. Did you just make a flat piece of carbon then cut to suit?

Well I've almost got everythimg bolted on my engine ready to drop it in hopefully next weekend. Spent today modifying the external oil drain as it didn't clear the rear dump pipe so had to change the bottom 45degree fittings to 2 90degree ones and now it's sweet. Put the last few things back in the engine bay and got that tidy ready for the engine. Now all thats left is finish the turbo oil/water lines, oil drains, set up the timing, put the clutch on and drop it in. Then comes the fun part of connecting everything......

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
