  1. S13 BC Reds in, front now close enough to the ground. New T3 steering arms test fitted, will permanently install after my next wof. Pick up 2JZ GE set up this weekend . Can't wait to get to the track again, should feel like a racecar now.
  2. Looks like st215 caldina. Just looked at the gtt in my driveway haha.
  3. I lose motivation if I can't drive it, sadly its on blocks at the moment. Was a struggle in winter, no heater and always had to have a window down. And reading your thread/stalking instagram, makes me want to do all of the things to mine haha.
  4. I only need fronts and its a lot cheaper to get just s13 ones than mx73
  5. So went to the track again, Gave the mighty 1G hell, Did a quick wheel alignment at the track infinitely improving the car no more sledge monster, Bent a MK 1 being overly aggressive, only a 8 so not tooooo cut up, Adjustable HSD rear shocks and a chopped up front Cusco strut bar helped, Bucket seat stopped me flailing around the car. Have decided I like drifting and from now on will forever be broke. Next up: N/A 2jz, some proper suspension with down travel, a proper wheel alignment and ditching the fender mirrors in favor of something else. And a pic of it in full 1G screaming mode:
  6. Pretty sure I saw this 6 months ago at the end of Garlands Road, I remember some 1G noises being made and ways were parted.
  7. Such a sweet build, basically convinced me to keep building mine to go sideways and join the JZ club. What are the S13 fronts like dampening and spring wise?
  8. So recently slapped some 15/13kg springs trimmed to sit at 100mm, filled the diff with concrete and went drifting. Got to say the 1G went surprisingly well even though its almost knackered. Looking into putting a 1g-fe block and 1g geu head together with some cams. Also scored way to many x61 parts and managed to do a chaser front end swap and chucked a bride zeta 1 in after realizing the factory couch wasn't up to the task.
  9. Pic thats missing from previous post Got some tyres fitted up to my MK 1s, have the fronts all mounted up but the rears will take some work to get to fit. Now just need to sort some more lows and centre caps.
  10. Received this thing yesterday after getting it super cheap on yahoo japan. The mighty 1G has never dorted so hard, amazing what messing with numbers can achieve.
  11. Everything is hooked up according to the diagrams. Can't really check fault codes as the ecu is on its own wiring set up so have no check engine light.
  12. For some reason after putting my new motor in with my old intake/TVIS setup the TVIS butterflies seem to just sit open down low and feel like they shut up high (car runs out of go at around 4k, starts sounding really rich and starved of air). WIth the car sitting there idling they sit open on the spring and the breather side of the vsv is sucking air. Have swapped out the whole system for another lot and still have the same problem. starting to think its an ecu/wiring problem :/ I'm in Christchurch if anyones keen to have a look :DD
  13. Finally legal . Now rocking Facelift Chaser bumpers, Hakosuka spoiler and a small tidy exhaust tip. Got some heavy weight springs eyed up to go low down.
  14. Forgot about this, onto my second 1g geu after the last one starved itself of oil, so now have 2 sitting around taking up space and many more random useless parts. * Failed a warrant on rust and a page of stuff that after checking was completely legal and not what was written on the paper. * Brought some 14x8.5 -15 SSR Mk1s, Currently in transit. * Got my turbo set up ready to go. * Have decided against adjusties but custom made springs to suit maybe a 80mm ride and be super stiff. * Finish hooking up my power steering hopefully fixing my dodgy steering issue. * Writting this here for no reason but to remind myself what to do. WIll post some photos of the cancer when I get a chance.
  15. Only problem I had was getting it half way in and finding it had the wrong sump on it -__-.
  16. So after going for a burn around the hills a few weeks ago my Mark II started making a insanely loud rattling sound (can be heard over the zaust at full song) at first I thought it was the pads rattling but put new ones in and didn't help. Only seems to happen after a decent right turn, and doesnt change pitch with speed. Sounds a bit like chatter rings, have to either keep driving until it goes away (after everyone in the same suburb has started staring) or slow to under 10ish kmh. Seems to have everyone stumped :/ (I might have to start a thread to put all my problems in )
  17. It may not be up to the standards of the godly Riverside group but, it sounds wicked, is cheap as hell on gas, gets looks everywhere and most importantly smashes tyres . Managed to score some brand new looking tail lights out of japan, get the fender mirrors on and wired up and bomb the bumpers mat b (looked good until they cooked in the sun). If anyone wants to suggest something else to do to it go ahead I've run out of ideas.
  18. Well huge retard moment, never did the nut up on the dizzy so fully retarded itself first time it started. Actually gets off its arse now.
  19. Now someones said it, could be the problem. Will jack it up and mess around tomorrow.
  20. Its almost unberable , Everyone thats been in it or driven it has gone on about how much clutch ridings invloved getting it to take off And if you get to a hill dump it into 1st, foot to the floor and hope for the best.
  21. Its been like it since I swapped in the new motor and manual box, Running 225/50 r15. Definitly taking off in in 1st, 3rd may as well get out and walk. At 6000Rpm in 1st its roughly 60ks Speedos pretty much dead on.
  22. Alright, Currently running a 1ggeu with some form of w series box and a 3.909 (F312) diff. But its like trying to take off in 2nd/3rd could easily cruise around town in 1st if I was deaf. What sort of options are around? Guessing I need to go higher? *EDIT* Just chucked some numbers in a gear ratio calculator and something doesn't add up, tried all the w series 1st ratios and seem to be out by 30km/h with the diff ratio written on the tag :/.
  23. No pictures, lost the cable to my camera but it passed its wof with flying colors, could not be more stoked . Now I need to write up a shopping list to get it lower, wider and louder. Possibly even another 1ggeu, to slowly rebuild and slam a set of itbs on or just cheat and go for a filthy + T with a side of detonation.
  24. Just did a google pic search and does look like there is supposed to be a plug into the intake(or it could just be the positive side for the p/s pump). Might just pop the lid off the ecu and have a look.
  25. Going from memory theirs 2 rectangle plugs into the thermostat and 1 single male pin coming out, will check for a bolt somewhere around that area tomorrow and grab some pictures of the ecu + plug for you.
