  1. I had a look around for you earlier to find those wheels, I'm sure Demon Tweeks are or used to be Konig dealers
  2. I was Then I changed my mind and repeat The R34 market is a bit strange & at the time my budget wouldnt stretch far enough & there was only a few on the market, now that I decide to keep it & buy a S/C there are about 10 R34s on PH all in my price range And I would have spent a fortune on the R34 So your all stuck with me for a lot longer
  3. Yeah, it looked something like that when I had finished
  4. I suck at soldering aswell so makes it even harder its much easier with no seats or steering wheel though
  5. Ian

    spacers

    What offsets are the wheels?
  6. I feel ripped off after selling mine for £400
  7. My first & only RWD car aswell I've never had any problems adjusting to it
  8. Yeah I found a blue one but it was on ebay so not sure if its genuine HKS or knock off Will be great if you make it, I will have to have a good nosey around if you do I'll definatley be at Japfest, I'm just not sure what car I'll be in
  9. Only progress so far Will be a while before I get into it fully because of work & still missing a lot of parts HKS AFK Install There are 4 parts to install, 1 Ignition feed, 2 wideband sensors (will be fitted when my new cats arrive) & the knock sensor. The first 3 are easy, the last one though involves splicing into the ECU harness I was not looking forward to this part of the install, cutting the factory harness was probably the most nerve wracking thing I've done so far A few mates came down & gave a helping hand we started by removing the lower dash to gain access to the ECU, removed the ECU & found the correct wire to cut into. Then to make things easier, we removed the passenger seat. There is sod all room in the footwell, especially when your trying to hold a soldering iron, solder & another wire as we discovered, there is not enough room under there for 2 people to do it. Heres where it went a bit wrong because of the lack of room, when I tried stripping the wire back so I could tap into it I used a bit to much force & snapped the wire It took me nearly 3 hours to get them bridged back together with the knock amp connected aswell, then just as I was wrapping them in insulation tape - it came apart I was about to give up when I had a call from my uncle seeing how we were doing (I think he was worried because we hadnt phoned him in over an hour ) Explained the situation to him & he came to my rescue, within 10mins he had the whole thing fitted (its easy when you do that for a living ) I only have it set up to monitor knock at the moment, I will fit the wideband sensors once I recieve my new cat pipes. Interior before Interior now Came out better than I expected it to TBH, Pretty happy with it & you get the idea of what it will look like when my other gauges arrive
  10. Yup My target is to have it ready for Japfest at the moment It won't make as much power as the Vortech kits, but the Torque figure seems higher on the HKS, its quieter than the Vortech & its JDM Will update in a minute at the progress I've made so far
  11. As most of you have probably figured out by now, I'm boosting the Z Usual story, I'm doing things a bit differently Really not feeling the green filter though, gonna have to try and source a blue one F-Con, which will most likely get ditched depending on what Mark @ Abbey decides on HKS BPV - also getting ditched in favour of a SSQV (Assumming I can be arsed to make it fit, if not then the SSQV will end up on my mums Impreza ) Intercooler Temp monitor New boot badge NOT! Unfortunatley my oil cooler is coming seperately & I'm also waiting for a huge order from Adam@Z1 to ship. I'm also still debating whether I'm gonna install it myself or just hand it over to Abbey to do - I'm leaning more towards doing it myself. If Nurrish can do it, then anyone can Parts I Have GTM HKS Stage 2 Supercharger HKS AFK Parts I'm waiting for GTM Oil Cooler Cosworth Intake Plenum (I'm guessing some of you have seen this already ) Deatschwerks 600CC Injectors CJM Stage 0 Fuel Return System HKS Black Edition SSQV NGK One Step Colder Spark Plugs AAM Throttle Body Spacer AAM Oil Pan Spacer Z1 Water Temperature Sensor Adaptor Koyo 54MM Radiator Tomei Test Pipes Defi Boost Gauge Defi Oil Pressure Gauge Defi EGT Gauge Defi Water Temp Gauge I think thats all of it Also a few more shiny bits & interior bits. I'm also debating on whether I should get the visible pipes powdercoated black to match the Cosworth
  12. Whats wrong with the offset? Its pretty much perfect to fill the arches
  13. Did the garage warn you before fitting the pins about cracking it? Every place I've tried around here to fit my aeroctach pins to my bonnet have refused to do it incase the bonnet gets damaged
  14. They look much better smoothed in Jables has had his done for a while & I dont think he has had any problems with them
