Defo keeping this deck now n the wife is gonna drive it woohoo so its not for sale now

Time for paint! So I've got all the interior done besides the door cards. I've fixed as much as the drivers side wing as I possibly could with the little talent I have with body fillter. I've fitted a VTI-S splitter on the front. Unfortunately I was unable to source a rear lip or side skirts but when I re-colour the car I'll try and get them before I paint it. For now, I think it looks pretty good anyway. I still need to fit the lowering springs and exhaust back box so it does look like it's on stilts right now. I went for matte black full dip base (Similar to Plasti Dip), with a Midnight Blue Pearl top coat, finishing off with a gloss coat. Unluckily, I did get runs in the gloss, and my poor masking skills did present a few hiccups on some of the edges, but it's a learning process and I will improve on these next time I come to paint it again. The Process Here is the car prior to paint. Setting up the gazebo as my DIY spray booth. Car all cleaned and first coat of matte black base. Second coat on and starting to look good. Third coat of matte black. Final coat and ready to dry over night. Time to start on the pearl coats. Midnight blue pearl mixed in to 50:50 matte clear and glossifier. Dust coat already covering the black. First wet coat applied. Second wet coat. Final coats applied and looking awesome. I took off the tail lights and did a few coats of PlastiDip Smoke before applying the gloss. The smoke dries as a matte finish the same as normal dip, and I wanted to go over them with gloss also. Gloss applied to car, and left to dry over night. Jap2Jap Monthly Meet at Botany Bay, showing off my work. Before & After Thanks for viewing! Few more updates to come on exhaust, springs and any other mods I do.

Like it jay.. good s**t!!! Starting to think that engine belongs in your deck tho. That would be awwweeesome

Also bought a p30 socketed ecu with b18c4 map from 10000rpm so see if it makes a difference I'll get it live mapped at some point.

Good stuff

this week is work week for me This is what I done today, and a few things last week with my buddy. Installed a fuel pressure sensor, still needs to wire it up to the utcomp board computer. Heatwrap around the manifold and spike nuts. Replaced the coolant hose that runs to the throttle body, the one that connects with the iron piece where the carter ventilation is. Now it's a hose in 1 piece. Replaced the d2 intake hose with a custom intake pipe with a heat cover around it. Did this also with the cold air pipe, that connects with a duct inlet. Also I put a breather on the valve cover, but this was touching the plastic cover of the injector wires, so I removed the cover and rerouted the wires under the manifold

I used a piece of the original dc2 intake pipe that goes to the resonator, that is a oval piece that goes into the airbox and changes into a round piece, and there I connect a round for the cold air.

Good selection so far
