Very nice but what is that awfull thing on your dashboard???

LOL thats just a bit of carpet(dashmat) to stop the sun from cracking the vinyl dashboard,as they only last a couple of years in the aussie sun.Just recently the glue holding down the velcro strips that hold it in place melted and it started to slide off under acceleration.

Just got my new FJ powered 85
with only 63000km!

Nice fj s12 Pete.What have you done with the cam cover? Just 2pk red? It looks nice

A couple of pics of my cars

Engine bay
A bit messy, It just needs a bit of paint here and there to dress it up
http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...043Small-1.jpg

looking good i cant wait to start modding mine it all about to go down soon

/the cam cover was bead blasted then painted with vht metal tint sp-232 ,and then given a few coats of power plus clear engine enamel.
Then it cracked the head a few weeks later and the parts washer stripped it all off so now it looks crappy again.Next time Ill do the manifold too
Like the white coupe Brian it just needs tinted windows and the chrome moulds powder coated,very straight ,did you paint it?

where did that carbon brace come from?

Pistonfreak,

In the picture on your signature, is it a standard front bumper cut out to allow more air in....

Thinking about lightening the bumpers on mine and chopping some material away... and letting more air in... anyone shed some light on that sort of mod??!

Mike.

Pic from a sunny day about 3 years ago, it's been collecting dust in the garage ever since! I might get it out in the summer for a month or two :)

Looks clean, is it 300bhp then?

It was 290 odd bhp on the dyno 5 or 6 years ago.

It is fairly clean yea......

Few more pics.

Cool, whats the mods dude?

any pics under the bonnet mate.what managment are you using ?.

well its a good 10 years since I built it but it goes something like this:

Knife edged crank
Steel S13 rods
JE forged low comp pistons
Light weight flywheel & AP paddle clutch
Block machined and oil jets fitted for crown cooling
Cooper ringed to improve gasket sealing
All components balanced
Head port
Fast road cam
5th injector (MF2 Controlled)
Water injection (MF2 Controlled)
SE Pace intercooler
Hybrid T28 (Can't remember the spec but it was £1600 10 years ago and seemed to work quite well!)
26psi Boost

That list doesn't seem as long as I remember but I'm sure there the main bits.

I was using 2 x MF2's to drive the fuel and water. Crude but did the job

I'll have a look at home for some more pictures, under bonnet etc

looks tidy, could do with that on our s12 line up at jae.

Nice mods :)

jae? :confused:

japanese auto extravaganza @ the east of england show ground , its a jap car show later on in the year , weekend show with camping and lots of booze.:D

Well if I can manage to get my finger out and get it MOT'd TAX'd and insured I might well look at coming to that :)

Greetings from Canada, land of snow and ice. This is what happened after an ice storm/freezing rain warning

My girlfriend is flying out to Toronto today, thats not too far from Kinston is it?

Looks like she's gonna be freezing her tits off :D

the airport is about 3 hours (200 miles-ish) from where I live. she will get the freezing rain and ice storm. the whole weekend is going to be ice and snow. at least in the UK you got rain most of the time.

Stil on german plates because its easer. And speed cameras dont bother me. :D

Ooooooh, where'd you get the semi invisible pop-ups from? Are they lighter? :wack

"Nissantegrale" Front bumper! I can call it that without the integrale maffia lynching me, as I have been there, done that.... anyway, my 'grale bumper inspired me...
Excuse the cheesy brand name for the front bumper... he he.. it's still work in progress of course, but heres a picture of the cut outs.. hard to get the full visual without, wings, lights, grille and bonnet fitted.. but here it is anyway.

http://bp1.blogger.com/_rI1PS9fSkZ0/...0/IMG_6476.JPG


I will probably increase the width of the outer two edges, as I didnt cut it where I had intended... duh.. and then possibly move the indcator light units back an inch and fit mesh over them in the apertures..., to keep the mesh max airflow look, even though only the three new apertures will increase airflow. Then the entire bumper, mesh and backing plater will be painted along with the rest of the ar when the gp widebody is on there.
Note: I have to chop a ton of metal out of the bumper backplate tomorrow otherwise all that lovely fresh air wont get anywhere useful... All this is in preparation for the bigger engine and intercooler in the future..

Mike

Sorry for the late reply

It's from a JZX80 supra. I just modified the mounts that go on the strut towers to make it fit



It's a custom Fibre Glass bar that I've made
I've made it from a "MFX" AE86 sprinter fibre glass front bar and grafted it to the upper half of the S12 series 1 bar.
I then took a mould and now make the occasional one for other guys here in Australia

Once my GP kit is here I'll be making this bar I have fit the car with the lower half of the matching skirts atatched to the GP's skirts with matching rear bar
