Bought some goodie today:

Bride Stardia for the passenger




Finally have a somewhat matching seat with the vio III sport.

I know they are not FIA approved...I am a ricer....

Things I need to finish up this weekend. I hopefully have some progress pic soon.

- Change Front wheels bearing
- Put the whole front suspension components back
- Get new front sway bar links
- install front and rear sway bars
- install BBK + custom lines

I really like the adjustable seat.

I saw your car at OZ this past June, was hoping to meet up with you but you were not there, and your cars breaks were fucking amazing. Like seeing a picture of empire state building and thinking its big, but then going there in person and walking up to it and being dwarfed by its size. Shit was rediculous. Like when you brake you might go back in time, or if your tires permit stop the earth.
No joke jaw droppin. I really like that white r32 you have pictured.

Good stuff and keep it up. Its your car, if you wanted to make the shit a 500 hp fwd car more power to you, I would just think your lames. But its yours, thanks for sharing, and I really hope people keep their opinions and debates to pms, not shit all over your thread with irrelevant shit.

Get over it. Its a vq in an r32 rwd gtr, no its not awd any more, and no its not a v8.

Maybe Ill see you in late Feb when I go up there again.

looks good let me know if you have any questions or need a real clutch for that car. i know you are going to need a fix for that pesky OEM CSC bearing inside that tranny that always blows up when you upgrade the clutch.

My original plan was 355mm in 17" but my supplier offered a new 380mm rotor for the kit so I took it and tried it out.

Thanks for the offer!! but I already order a OS-Giken twin plate for the HR, should have it in couple weeks since I cheaped out and ship it with cheappppp surface mail!

I know the CSC bearings will suck as I've read all threads regarding it on my350z.com. I am wondering if anyone has tried using a A/M set up. ie tilton/AP master with their slaves...

Yea..for sure. I just don't want to put them on until I mounted the tires..etc. Looks like they are not too durable if I moved the wheels around the garage.

If the build thread was just about putting those brakes and wheels on your car it would be sufficient.

Can't get enough.

Hey! Just buy some 19" SP1's. The TE's are nice but SP1's make my boat so floaty.

this looks like its gonna be a blast to drive! even though it wont have an astounding power/weight ratio its still gonna be smooth and predictable, assuming the f/r weight balance turns out alright. also with a heavier overall car their will be allot more suspension response wich is good for learning, wich is what this car is being built for if i remember correctly... Hell i couldnt drive for shit on twisties untill i sold my civic with coils and started driving my parents q7 on backroads, thats the car that taught me how to manipulate suspension, now i get to apply it to the s13 im slowly but surely building, wich is a stripped and has a lightweight ca tucked as low and far back as i could get it, very nice balance!
