Couple of pics

I have just bought 444cc injectors

2 cobra seat rails for my bucket seats

2 sebelt 3 point harnesses

New ps13 lights

and am in to minds weather to change the front now or get a cage?????

Front change would be carbon bonnet.

Just need to sort the avcr out as its boosting all over the place the car ran a 287bhp on the rollers but the power curve was crap up in down all over the place.

Just booked myself on a drift day at the pod on the 11th of june need the practice

Also bought these little bits

tein rods and rod ends

and driftworks bottom arms

Sooooo... I guess this'll be in the For Sale section next week then?

Just kidding dude, looks nice

initial_j · 26-05-2008, 23:04

looks a decent spec.

dont bother spending money changing the front end, just makes it harder to get parts when you stack it.

cage on the other hand makes a MAJOR difference to the handling and will help you a lot. a lot of people forget that cages do much more than just add safety, they really do stiffen the car up a lot.

Pic of the manifold (not yet fitted)

stuff is ment to be arriving this week so the misses will be moaning even more now.

-WJ- · 27-05-2008, 08:25

solid car man.
skid it.

MJG · 27-05-2008, 08:35

That looks like a good car, as WJ said just drift it after sorting the boost out. Honestly you don't need posh arms, really really you don't, it just makes the car stiffer. For anything but top spec competition I don't see the point whatsoever, it's just a DW "nice to have" that people fit because they think they need to, and sure it feels tight, but is that a good thing? Unless your car is dangerously shagged then they feel tight on coilovers anyway!

Just my 2p, and again I like the way the car looks

spin-king · 27-05-2008, 22:04

No thats cool peps dont mind at all.

cheers for the coments guys will be getting skidded on the 11th of june at the pod cant wait been along time.

spin-king · 27-05-2008, 22:32

well be spending again

bought some skyline rear calipers (single pot) as i am thinking of getting a
hydraulic handbrake.

drifty handbrake button thing and wheel nuts for the advans and other wheels i cant get the standard nuts on.

And some difty little chav must of known i had ordered a chargespeed carbin vented bonnet as they put a BIG dirty scratch down the bonnet of the car only had it since friday RRRRRRRRR

Bonnet looks like this but in carbon.

But for a uk s13.

going to matey hoping to have a 2way diff sorted soon aswell.

-WJ- · 28-05-2008, 07:44

jeez man, stop spending money on stuff you don't need and get some seat time

Hydraulic handbrake on an S13? Standard handbrake locks the wheels up instantly at 200 kp/h

xborninthefightx · 28-05-2008, 12:56

Really nice build there dude, looking forward to seeing it at Pod

At least i'll lookg good crashing lol

spin-king · 01-06-2008, 21:17

Just bought myself a s14 diff and will be getting it welded up for the 11th of june ready for the pod.

Also will be ordering myself a carbon boot from chargespeed monday.

The actuators buggered on the car which is why i have been getting boost round 5k and the avcr not being able to control the boost propley so will be changing that aswell.
