i dont know if its the video, but it sounds absolutely demonic. and that engine, far out. what sort of numbers is it doing man?

[Char]

.. dyno sheet on previous page. i've only driven it about .5k's since i got it back.
its still on the initial run in tune (half tune) at 320ish rwhp 4000rpm.

kinda hard to fork out 4k on a paint job when studying and working 1 day a week.

it'll get there soon, in other news if anyone wants a genuine Greddy/Trust front bar for r32 GTR or GTst let me know.
im gonna go back to full vertex kit as the trust one make my front end farkin low and with my ikeya formula roll centre adjusters (control arms/castor rods) my car 'has' to be 80% lower than standard just to run them

car needs fuel dropped and paint job, or maybe i'll organise some paint rollers etc. jk

15g engine, 1 day of work a week? brain does not compute

[Char]

yeah thats pretty much just been this year which is why sort of came to a halt.
she's ready to go im just not keen to drive it til its painted

[landscribble]

man i'd kill to see it tearing up the RAC track

[Char]

cheers, yeah the video doesnt do justice. with any luck/motivation i might have it out for the november track day if there is any spots.


heres a few lil things i did today




I wired the coilpacks with some new heat shrink and i sprayed and installed the rocker cover.
I really do like how RB's look without the front cover on but I dont wanna risk having a rock or something fly up and get stuck in my cam gear etc.
-pretty happy how it turned out, cant see the vct feed anymore so looks just like an rb25

atm i'm deciding whether to go a widebody kit on her before it goes to paint but the only one i can find is the BN kit which im not really sold on.
so it would be widebody fender kit with vertex front and rear
