08-05-11, 18:57 GMT+10#61 Fabricated and assembled most of the box today. Decided to use 12mm ply, MDF is rubbish.. corners blow out and it falls apart. Fits pretty well, ill finish it off tomorrow and get it mounted. Once its fixed in i can work around the box and get everything made up and get it in

Yea thats true.. the car gets locked up and and parked in behind gates at night and has a top range alarm/immobilizer/central locking in it. It should be at the top of the list of any modified car imo... Ill pm you about the injectors, cheers.

01-07-11, 16:58 GMT+10#76 Im working on the boot layout at the moment.. tricky ****, update pics soon. Itll look trick when its done, ive got a few little surprises. After that im going to get a 3.5inch dump exhaust tip and autometer gauge the sun glass holder. After that, ill start buying turbo parts. Only a year and a half til my full licence..........
I want around 250rwkw. My plan is to get a r33 manual and vlt diff in the car as i get them and run it n/a and build a s2 block on the side ready for fulls.
Somethin like a 35/40, de comp, cammed, microthec on a standard bottom end on around 10-15psi. That will keep me happy for quiet a while, after that ill forge the bottom end and crank up the boost

14-07-11, 00:34 GMT+10#77 guarantee you will get bored of 10-15psi within the first 2 weeks, dont ya'll know the 35's efficiency range only starts at 15psi?

28-07-11, 18:14 GMT+10#80 Whats going in my sunglass holder.
Boost gauge in a NA, yes (lol) Im just gonna hook it up to the vaccum for a laugh.. Ill be making a plywood plate for them to sit in, and dont want to have to re do it later on when i turbo just to put a boost guage in it so ill just put it in now.. some story for wiring it up etc.
I was going to carpet the ply wood plate with some blue carpet offcuts i had from my door pods, but i thought of getting an old dash or glove box lid or even door trim vinyl from a wrecked VL, and use that as a veneer on the plate and it'll all look factory. Factory autometer gauges, you know
My other bright idea was one of these..
A self contained shift light (ie no tacho to run off.. adjustable rpm dial on the back) And mount this inside the air con vent just above the head deck.
Hidden/sleeper spec out of sight until hits the rpm and goes off.. sneaky sneaky
Bit wankerish.. Keen to hear feedback!
