First sticker thru the post! tho i did make a small mistake as i wanted the skyline siloet and the supra meh its not about that.

First sticker thru the post! tho i did make a small mistake as i wanted the skyline siloet and the supra meh its not about that.

The original recirc is attached but no pipe. The inlet is blanked off and ive checked all the pipes, no bov at all mate Its all being forced out the filter, i think the recirc will be a mistake so ive seen some hks ones on fleebay..

Only 15mm not that big!

Other rear shock fitted, took it for a spin earlier, much harder and a bit boucy but i think the reason is the back weighs as much as a sock lol Fronts next week

Took 1 of the rear wheels off to look for size, offset and make they are, could only see 18 x 9.5JJ no make or offset, will have a look at a front one soon. Even with stretched 245 tyres they are so wide lol Also i have better condition front wipers and RS4 black grill coming! Oh new bonnet struts too! Someone has tempted me with a full set of silicone hoses Blue for £100 which is gd price but i think blue is a bit ford & 90's!

I better be careful, i dont want too much jdm cred, ill have to start my own jap car show lol

lol adds a easy 10+HP you know!

Joined the stagea owners page on fb, really gd bunch of chaps and welcome, learned the bodykit is by Abflug which is rare apprantly always cool, also on the website i found i dont have the scoop, what do u rekon worth getting ? http://abflug.jp/products/

Noticed a few more bits needed doing, rear head lining needed re-sticking done that, front passenger shock was squeaking when it hit big bumps and the front indicators were very dim. Took the indicators off which had alot of grime underneth, to find the lense that is set into the bumper, still had the masking tape on it from when they painted the darn bumper! lol Before: Glued the cracks, nice and clean afterwards: Had to drive it onto bricks to jack it as my jack wont go under the kit and had a look at the the shock to discover this! Ally top has cracked off at some point and they used the original bolt to clamp it tight, i replaced the bolt thats stronger but ill have to do something about some other time. I also noticed the anti roll bar touching the frame.. Quite clean..

Look what i found, the recirc! tho no pipe on it so i think its doing nothing so i either blank it off or use it ?

Showed some mates the stagea today, revved it with the bonnet open, im 90% sure its coming out the filter now, the bov bit of pipe is blocked off so i will fit one now, looks like i will be calling abbey motorsport soon see what sort of quote they give me for a strut top repair, i could proby source some and have them welded elsewhere but ill see what abbey say first. Tried it on 1.4bar today and wow feels alot faster!! lol

the only place i havent looked is under the bumper, ill look on sat if i have the energy too, im on the GTR forum now 2 of them have said my exhaust bung is a no no as it will cause DET which is not gd so i have removed it for now. If it really doesnt have BOV i will have to put one in, i know a mate who has a hks one too They also said on the gtr forum about my front strut tops, went to see the jap nut at my local garage(he has a mk1 aristo 430hp) he said they wont pass an mot, he said if i can find a scrap skyline cut the tops out and he'll weld them or he can just mak a plate. Ive posted on the gtr forum to see if anyone advise me on whats gd & where is gd. Also joined the Jap outlaw forum, they do a few all round jap meets in my area could be fun.

well the owner said that the bloke at pro tune said it wasnt an issue, i always thought it was harmful to the turbo as its making it kick out the excesses boost ? The car is so much quieter now, all i hear now is the huge suction from the turbo lol Battery came, decided i didnt want to loose power so i rigged another battery on jump leads to the clamps and swapped the old nasty(570) for the New(610) battery and much better

More bits, new grill fitted which was easy, the exhaust tip insert came too, took quite a few shaves from the grinder to get it to fit, bloody stainless was a pain to drill but all bolted in, i would of pushed it in further but it was bent on inside about 2" down right nect to the bumper it has to go there. Battery ordered, my first skyline gt selected part lol Grill now black Is this right ?? Now in and half the noise much nicer for during the week, tight fit so i dont know im getting it out

Japfest ticket and pass booked! no track time left

That manny is a thing of bueaty looking great mate, custom job or a company stock item ?

Grant i spoke to him the other day asked him about it and there isnt a bov, it just comes thru the air filter, unless its hidden behind the bumper im sure it doesnt have one. Went to motor parts direct to see if they had a battery but didnt but noticed a wire not conncted to anything, followed it and 1 wire was joint connected to the washer pos/neg and the other was cut back to nothing! so i chopped it and i feel better

The kit is bit boso but i like it lol Wheels are going soon. First mod turned up today

Here it is the vid! And when is japfest i havent been in ages!

I sound like a right nerd at the start lol!

Had some ups and 1 small down today, the down was when i went to pop out in it and the fob didnt work for a few mins which was odd, actually had a call with the pervious owner and he said hes never had an proby so maybe a ramdom thing ? Found out i have the special wheel nut socket plug which is a relief! There are local garges that do the alarm system so if i have anymore problems ill go there. Think it needs a new battery sooner than later so might get a new tomorrow, had a delivery driver come ask me about it really liked it, alot of ppl like it Oh filled it for the first time so much room, proper stagea plastic boot floor tray, super cool rear seat releases so good!

First coil fitted

Adjusted the rear camera and had a look at the boot catch as it sticks a bit, also had a route around the engine bay, cant find the bov so ive the old pigeon mod, lots of bodged bits of pipe, got an oil cooler behind the intercooler. Cheers guys, tom the wheels are going soon as i get a proper socket for taking those wheel nuts off! Just ordered a tip Db killer insert to try and kill some of the hum..
