Installed aircon piping, fixed up coolant hoses/heater hoses, organised some engine bay wiring, installed radiator fans.

Pretty much there now. Just need C clips for selector cables, a few stolen bolts off silver car's exhaust, to put interior together and she's done!

Pics + videos to come.

But I want to see NOW!

Huh, why does your redline only go to 7500?

[dstocks]

Oooohhhh.That must be damn near close to done!

Good work

On another note, did you get any engine figures after the rebuild you had done. Thinking about it, im guessing no as I assume that they could only have got those with the engine in the car .

Total list + info:

- 1996 GR with MIVEC 6A12 conversion
- Full engine rebuild with ported heads by NAS Automotive
- Bennoz' special gearbox rebuild
- ARC Intake with APEXi pod filter
- Kakimoto exhaust for street use & side exit straight pipe (no muffler/cat just pipe) for track use
- Standard headers with RPW to come when I get exhaust done (need downpipe)
- Twin pot brake caliper upgrade from GPX
- RDA 'Dark series' slotted and dimpled GPX brake discs and EBC red pads
- Front and rear version R strut braces
- Version R rear seats
- KYB Excel G shocks with Lovell's (I think) lowering springs

Still to come:

- 65mm throttle body upgrade
- Headers + full exhaust
- Haltech ECU
- Modified version R wing
- DCuatro front skirt
+ Moar various bits and pieces

Redline goes to 7,500 because cluster has not been changed. My car is a GR with a Mivec conversion

Its on stands, n00b

No engine figures yet dwayne. Just gotta get it blue slipped and rego'd then run the engine in and then im back up to my mechanic for a Dyno run, then it will be right to go to the track.

I am hoping for 115kw before I do my exhaust and tune. I think 115kw at the front wheels with a rebuilt engine, the mild head porting and just the intake is reasonable. Its a bit optimistic but with my track exhaust, headers, intake, head work, upgraded throttle body and ECU + tune I will be wanting 145kw+

Interesting to see how close we get and I know a dyno figure is pointless but thats my goal.

[dstocks]

Well, im 133KW atw without the port and polish if that helps (I have everything else you mentioned except track cat - which should add around 10KW - Did for Aza when he was running it)

+ Throttle body

[dstocks]

Ahh yes, and that

[Daniel2019]

Also with the throttle body upgrade I will also be port matching the intake manifold as you're supposed to. Moar powar!
