"Hope my fuel pump stands up to it"

can sell u an 040 pump $150

Already got a fuel pump dude, KYP just aren't putting it in until I've done 1000kms.

This is what I got up to today, among other things: Went and picked up all my things that were still at KYP; adapter and sensor for water temperature gauge, accelerator pedal, and the GTT engine cover.

KYP say engine cover doesn't fit because of my intercooler piping...





Well I say you're not trying hard enough!!!





Fits pretty much perfectly now. Could make it fit a bit better, but I'm quite happy with how it sits here. Still leaving it off for now, will begin painting tomorrow arvo probably.

While I'm at it I'll upload pictures of the planned mods:

3" Tomei bellmouth dump/front pipe:





Highflow cat (already installed, along with Kermit made custom 3" straight cut stainless steel cat-back):





Stainless steel muffler with burnt titanium finish (also already installed):



NIStune ECU (have swapped the ECU and NIStune in this picture for a brand new board, but same thing really:



Pair of Sparco Torino II racing seats (going to require some modification if they are going to fit):



ARK Multi Functional Display:



GTR blow off valves:



DBA slotted rotors:


HEL braided brake lines:



There are a couple of other things but I don't have photos.

Coming along well mate Can't wait to see those seats in, too! How do the BOVs sound?

[Hanaldo]

Yeh those seats are gonna be a problem. Have a feeling I'm gonna have to sell them Can't afford fuckin $700 for Bride rails.

I only fitted the one bov so it sounds the same as stock RB25 one, just louder. Will look into making some custom piping later on so I can fit both bov's.

[NA_Goodness]

Noooooo!!! It's so worth it!! Spend the $700, best money you've spent so far

Turbosmart megasonic, pshhhhhhhhhht

Can't you take those universal ones to a shop and get them to make them fit?

[Hanaldo]

Don't go getting my hopes up James lol.

Is this story of magical racing seat fixers true!?

[Ten Four]

I duno, ask around? I bet kermit could give you a heads up?

[Hanaldo]

Are these seat fixers affiliated with custom exhaust fabricators? lol

[Ten Four]

I have no idea. He is in the car/race car business so I'd assume he knows people.
Plus rails are metal.. maybe he could fab something up?

[Hanaldo]

Dad is an engineer, so will see if he can fabricate me something next time he is here which is tomorrow I think.

[Nic_A31]

Planned mods look good man, keeping an eye on this.

[Hanaldo]

Cheers man. I'm excited. Most of this stuff will be going on tomorrow/Wednesday. That MFD is gonna be a pig to install though...

I've also got Greddy Profec BSpec II electronic boost controller which is already installed, KYP just need to reconnect it once the 550hp fuel pump goes in. Apexi turbo timer same deal, already installed but disconnected because there was a problem with it, will be wired in when I take it back for 1000km service.

Future plans are highflowed R34 OP6 turbo, or HKS GT-RS if a good kit comes up for a good price. Thought about KKR but decided I would regret that, don't want to stinge on the turbo. Tomei or Nismo 555 injectors are on the books as well.

u know whats flows better than a high flow cat? a gutted cat - shoots flames too

[Hanaldo]

Yeh. Cops love em

Nah, as much as I love high performance cars... I do care for the environment as well. Not interested in causing unnecessary damage to the environment for the sake of 4-5hp.

[2LV8ETR]

Not to mention the up to $10k fine if caught.

[Hanaldo]

Yeh that too.

[NA_Goodness]

I know people who have been told to put cats in their exhaust and others who have passed the pits with gutted cats. Never heard of anyone being fined.


Flames are cool...

[Hanaldo]

Yeh, I'm not being the unlucky guy that gets made an example of

[2LV8ETR]

If Rhys is prepared to pay the fine........
