Looks good.

Best looking seat ever made IMO.



Whats the conversion rate you do to figure flywheel hp?

thanks for the comment.
did'nt use any conversion. car had 2 runs on the dyno one for power at the wheel the other at the fly. so got two print outs. :thumbs:

what modifications were needed in order to use the Z32 BMC ? Is it a direct swap ?

Sorry if this was covered before....

It is if you get it from a RHD Z32. If not the holes for the lines will be pointing towards the fender, vs toward the engine.
Good to see ya on the board! =)

man you are answering my questions all over the net, where can I find a JDM Z32 BMC

 

[raytsang]

well i got mine from a guy that was stripping a Z32 over here.. i sure it gonna be hard getting a second hand one from the US. you can get brand new ones from Japan.
but you gotta be carefull as the z32 came in all types of piston sizes. mines a bm57 think its the biggest one you can get. you need to do some research in the defferent part numbers.

[SoMarvelus]

small update on whats going on with the Silvia.

While on track found my oem clutch was starting to slip so had to retire early so only got a hour or so on track

had ordered myself a Orgura Orc409DS (damper and silent type)

pic to follow..

Finally got a chance to fit my Tomei N2 Oil Block yesturday. and oil change since the oem oil block has to come off anyways.

all was well till i found intake gaskets leaking oil and i broke the oem oil sensor thing

new sensor and gasket ordered hopefully everything be ready the RR'd day:thumbs:

Every time i see this car i love it more and more...

The colour couldn't suit the Vertex Kit more, and i'm not 100% sure whether i've posted here before, so if i haven't, those photos on the previous page absolutely wicked dude!

It really looks as though you've spent alot of time and effort on it, but the looks of it make all that hard work worth it

Awesome car
