Want to see your Z32 uprights on, I've got a pair in my garage for nearly two years now and as far as I'm aware in S14/S15 they wont fit, there is issue with rear shock

BTW Very nice car, I would love to see half of your spec on my S15 :D

agreed with the above - had my tein flex since i got the car (think they were newly fitted in japan before it came over) and they are an awesome coilover. very stiff, but manage to maintain a nice ride.....

Right time to move the project on abit further..

after finding a crack on the Tomei manifold...





So im gonna get it welded up..

Ever since i had the GTRS turbo ive had boost creep..so since the mani and turbo was off im gonna port the wastegate to help with the creep.

But since the mani out might as well change out to a metal head gasket....

so ive order a Cosworth MHG 87mm bore 1.1mm thick, Tomei Springs type A, BC Ti spring retainers, Supertech Valve Seals..
gonna keep the stock cams for the mine time. But up the boost :)

haha I love modifying... everytime something goes wrong it's an ideal opportunity to fix but also get loads more done!! :D


Nice to see you're still tuning Ray... that S15 will never be finished... like most awesome cars are never in the state of 'complete' haha!!!
