I've never heard of it.

I do want to know though if they are going to refund you for shipping if the shit doesn't work and you mail it back to them.

you can get the same stuff locally.
dont wanna put it in if its gonna damage anything..

my reason for this question is that I heard Octane booster additive can damage SR20dets.
just wondering if anyone's had a bad experienced with a no smoke additive..

anyway ill chuck it in see what happens.. always fancied a rb20-25det lol

So.... after 2 months of silence..

I have finally got the car back on the Road!!

what has been an uphill battle with something cropping up at every turn.
That first drive out over the weekend made it all worth while.

its a little ripper!

events from my last post..

Chassis specialist renege on doing the work.

Found another decent specialist who knew what to do.
Chassis work went ahead,

it was about a week or so after this work. I went down checking it all out.. all looks well. (plus battery clamp)

so onto the next job.. New glass.
took the car to Autoglass as they found me a Euro s13 glass that will go in (not original). but cant notice a difference. looks way better without the HUD reflector tho.

problem.. took the broken glass out.. rusted to hell behind it...

car had to go back to the specialist...

guys did a great job.. took all the rust out from over the years (thought might as well get it all done while it was in).

now that all the major jobs where finished..(well at least the 2 major ones)
had some guy look at leaning it out as you said jedi03.

got it not smoking with on/off revving.

took it for the test.. and it passed.. so relieved..

now i gotta save up and start on the rest of it..

wish list as follows

front brake upgrade of some sort/rear's to match/BMC/
want to add hydro brake on a separate calliper.

4.09 nismo2way/5stud axle shafts/clutch/rear arch rolled/rear spacers/adjustable rear control arms.

Drift Sump

s13 chuki side skirts / Rear valance

then back to Power

and the cycle continues lol

keep ya posted on what comes next.
cheers all for reading.

nice! glad it worked out! 300zx brakes seem to be great bolt on upgrade with conversion to 5 lug hubs...or redril to 4 lug if you like to keep them that way!

AUHs13 · 10-25-2016, 10:46 PM

cheers.

yeah I got 5 lugs already.. and wheels are 17"

so z32 seems to be the way to go. was reading about 350z swaps. but might be abit large for 17"

http://zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=462754

seems a bit of a mission drilling holes for 14mm calliper bolts.

so will prob stick to z32old faithful,
plenty of Used JDM Car parts in Sharjah.
want to get separate rear calliper (Hydro brake) for the rear. coz i think finding a rear drum assembly is gonna be a nightmare locally..
if anyone knows more about that let me know..

anyway
job for a weekend in the near future..
