When I was younger and went to school I studied french for 2 years, most wasted time in my life. Cannot remember anything else than how to get a woman laid lol. Well, Have to use some low-life fixes like that, but still i think it will work. I will anyway rebuild the car in the future. Been looking @ the Chasebays Mil spec 44 pin connector (aircraft connector) to use in the firewall in the Autronic loom, but the one on Chasebays is quite expensive, and those on ebay don't have both connectors. + the tool is quite expensive, but I have to say that is one hell of a sexy contact!

jr_ss uses that style of connector (jealous as HELL of that guy!). I would have too but I had already purchased the Wiring Specialties harnesses when I found out they exist. Worked with aircraft for the last 20yrs of my life (MIL-SPEC kind of guy here )- Love Cannon-style connectors. I often wonder why cars do not come with them from the factory these days- it would make trouble shooting malfunctions SO MUCH easier... not to mention clean up a lot of otherwise cluttered engine bays!

Marine Grade Stainless Steel Unbrako screws is my favourite! You don't happen to know where to buy that contact a little cheaper? Tool and Contact is 600 $ + shipping and tax Quote:

Havent reduced a lot of weight, mainly because I don't have time but it will be done sooner or later, maybe for next season if I got time for this car then (Tubeframe timeattack ? ) What have been done that can be considered of removing weight is: Removed ABS Removed OEM enginebay wiring and unnecessary sensors ++ Cutting trunk floor for radiator fitting removed oembattery case removed A/C Seibon Carbon bonnet on the way removed OEM ECU removed all alarm and security shit What can be done: remove sounddampening inside the car (probably 20kg??) Lexan windows moar carbon Carbon rollcage (yes, it is possible) Half of the AN stuff came today What is missing in the package is AN16 and AN20 AN16 for the oilcatctank and AN20 for the radiator-to-engine Shamely, I haven't get to pick up the finished crankshaft yet, but I will do in the following days. Cheers

Yes, I hope so. Plan is to have it test started by May and then have the car ready for the Gatebil @ Rudskogen and the "Japsetreff @ Rudskogen" arranged by the Norwegian SX club ___________ Doing a little update witha few pics. Just came home from one of the garages, been sitting about 7 hours TIG'in my Exhaust manifold. Finally it is done! Dont worry about the welds looking weird, I did some of them earlier with a MIG outside lol. Also had to be fast and take a pic of 13:37 price for Petrol Changing the axle of the MPG gearbox for the Volvo Just placed a Compomotive 18x10 rim to see how it could look. Didn't look any nice, white and FN2 is a no-go I think. I am also going to start making the Downpipe pretty soon. Have a Blitz Special 4" Supra exhaust that will meet the angelgrinder and TIG to become a downpie The exhaust sat on the 1000kg (including driver and fuel) Full-Carbon Supra which is driving timeattack here in Scandinavia Was visiting the owner yesterday, saw he had taken it off so I had to ask

Time for some bigass update
Got some awesome news here today! About a week ago, a friend if mine in Japan (who have worked at Endless) tip'd me about an awesome addition to my car. He said that if I want to go fast, I need to change gears fast. Therefore, a sequential transmission was bought today. And it is not just any sequential Transmission; HKS decided to make a sequentil transmission that was very strong, but also light. During the project, the productions was ended avter finishing the 3rd transmission. The cost was too high as the internals is made of a very expensive metal. The gearbox I have is marked with Serialnumber 002 and is fitted with a billett SR20 bellhousing by Endless-R. It's been sitting in a demo car and only got 500km sinde made. It comes overhauled and ready to install. Here is a picture from when it was taken out of the car. Transmission is rated 1200NM and should hold for my purpose. Endless own 2 of them and have used the other one for dragracing in a 8 Second s14 with 950 whp. I would have to exchange the ratio of the transmission in order to run Norwegian track, but when I'm driving Hockenheim, Nurbugring and Circuit de Spa in August I need the final ratio as it is now in order to achieve 300 KM/H. And it does not stop there! To my JDM rare collection I have bought the front fenders and 1 magnezium rim from the car pictured above. Those are 100% custom and one-off. The rim is 3-piece and center bolt. Fender flares is signed by All the drivers of the Daishin GT300 Silvia. About my own car, it's a fem things done since last update. Got this package a couple of days ago, directly from the US. and that package had this inside: A monster-large custom built intercooler. it's 5" thick When this was made, the plan was to have the IC place in front as it utually is in the S-chassis. Radiator is placed in rear as shown earlier and therefore the IC will be placed inside the enginebay. this is due to: Cheeper to crash the car in the front to a certain point, shorter IC piping and a better weight distribution. As seen there is a couple new problems regarding the In/outlet on the IC. it would fit very good in the front of the car, but now I will have to fabricate some new in/outlets and weld it on. Also been making an oil catchtank, this will be having vacuum and AN16 inlet. Got a Package of some Earl's about 45 meters of hose AN6 AN8 AN10 AN12 + fittings Next package will be the AN16 for radiator in rear and oilcatchtank, and rest of turbo lines Made some fuel lines and mounted yblock, pumps, FPR and lines for fuelrail. Good trick on how to make a clean cut and easily fit the fitting. Time is running out and I have to go, but more updates to come!

Damn, that transmission is unreal... you are king of finding super rare and expensive parts.
Are you gonna put the radiator behind the IC like normal, or in front where the IC would usually go?

the transmission is a beast! It's some time until I receive it as it is in Japan and I'm poor atm LOL. When I receive it I will do a cleanup, it looks not so good as it's been just sitting in a car inside a couple years. I am obsessed with rare parts, it gives me a good feeling every time i find some haha. The dream is owning a GT300 Silvia but that will never be happening if I don't become a millionare and Nismo decides to sell another one. I worked my ass off to find a 20k$ for the transmission, and then i got news about the gt300 parts lol. Sooo poor at the moment I am selling parts I am needing in my build to get this. Radiator is placed in the trunk, as pictured and explained earlier in the thread.

Price i gave is somewhere around 20000 $ but the actual value is more for a collector as it is very rare. I'm sorry but I think it's a One-off chance I had. Sugino san have one in his drag car and Nismo the last. Quote:
BTW wheels going to be Rays TE37 SL lightened version (400grams lighter) 18x10,5 rear 280/650/R18 18x9 in front 255/650/R18 Running Yokohama Advan Slicks Those are the same used in many Japanese races and fits with Endless 380mm brakes which might be what I am going tp use for this car, or else Alcon/AP racing.

Well that's none of your business.
I buy whatever I want and I like rare racing parts so why shouldn't I? I don't really see the point of your post, why spend time to post anything on something you dislike?
