DA Off Season

This has a kinda Ken Block type feel to it. But looks sweet none-the-less. Watch in 720p for full effect.

New things for 2010

2 cars which blew up in 2009 were Yuta's S30, and Edafe's Z33. They both look a bit different now, but imo, even better than before. Yuta, we need more pics!

New Tra-Kyoto car?

We've all seen the usual 6666 petrol station pics, but here's a car I hadn't seen before today. Pretty fresh! Shame about the roof scoop though.

Nothing ever happens here either...

Like Si, I've been somewhat tardy of late...again, not much of great interest to report. The Nissan-badged garage ornament has been just that since the end of last summer, its been a bit neglected since the arrival of a dirty panzer tank.


Should be just the ticket for this summer's Nurburgring pilgrimmage, will make a difference driving it in a car that doesn't feel like it could combust at any minute like the paranoia-fest that was summer '08...


So to half-arsedly apologise to the poor Nissan for months of neglect i picked up a new lump of fibreglass which I'm yet to fit properly...


Will get fitted and painted along with the rest of the car, I smell a colour and facial surgery coming in the next month or 2!

Finally got my new exhaust on. Its pretty quiet, but sounds great. It unfortunately, fits like ass, which means my downpipe gasket is blowing (thanks to a sheered bolt). So, next time I'm home, Ali is going to drill out the bolt and weld a piece of flexi section in the DP.

Nothing much happens

Well, long time, nothing posted. Why? Car's been off the road, nothing good to show really.

This is pretty much the state of my car/life right now. Engine build on the living room table, flowers as a grovel to my better half.

Turbo is somewhere in the world, Apex seals are somewhere in the world, both supposedly making their way to me. Without them, I'm stalled.

Looking forward to the buildup, not looking forward to the pain with all the new wiring. Nothing like this ever works first time...

Old Skool

GRD x FC3s x Green in full effect.

536whp pull, only up to 6000rpm

Just a quick video for anyone interested, i took the R32 over to Thor Racing in Cambridge yesterday to get it on the dyno. Being a pretty new import and knowing naff all about the car, always wise to get it checked out.

Good and bad news awaited, bad news is my second Bosch 044 pump is seized, and past 5500rpm the car is MASSIVELY fuel starved, so we couldn't dyno the car to 7800rpm as intended, just 6000rpm (dangerous lean even at that).

Good news is it still managed 536whp, not sure what that works out with 4wd transmission losses but it's all about wheel horsepower anyways! Hopefully with a new pump, new ecu (it's still on the stock ECU!) and 7800rpm it should be good for 650+whp... fingers crossed.

FC + 180

Here is a couple of shots Morf took from last night. Oh hi - i'm Joe by the way, I own the 180 :)
