Not going to JTS @ Silverstone then? Let us know what power you get ATW.

The chrome 19" SSR's on the back are my drift wheels. didn't want to ruin the normal 18"er's. Trying to find a pair for the front. SSR's aren't a readily available make over here. Noticed that the Driftworks S15 had some on at Japfest tho.

The gauges in the centre pod are Voltage, Oil Temp, Oil Pressure and Water Temp. I have a Defi Exhaust Temp gauge also so I can keep an eye on things!

My car is not ready yet Greg, it doesn,t arrive till june 7th.
TDI said i should be getting 650 at fly and 500 rwhp easily due to the spec of the build
I have bought a few new goody's lately which should help including a Nismo oil pump which i picked up on ebay brand new from a U.S seller, i got it for £400 which is pretty good as they retail at £600+.
I think i have covered everything in regards to running high power now so i just have to wait for it all to be put together.

My spec now is;

APS TT kit
APS extreme 3" exhaust and down pipes
APS extreme fuel kit with twin pump and 880 injectors
Carbonetics triple clutch
Cosworth built bottom end includes studs (both sets), 'H' beam conrods, bearings, gaskets, Anti detination pistons custom fitted to each chamber and bored to 3.6 ltr.
ARC oil catch can
Junction produce wheels 19"
Haltech stand alone ECU
Deffi dials.
Nismo oil pump.

I am waiting 'till the winter then i am doing some work on the suspension and to fit the Cosworth plenum

So most of this is rated 800 bhp + but i wanted to run well inside the limits as i want it to last a while

Didn't know waiting would be this hard though

If anyone on here can get there at 9am saturday there are two spaces left if you want a dyno chart done. its free but the skyline lads are putting £20 each into a charity box to be given to a charity of TDI's choice (great ormand St i think).
It would be interesting to see what our car makes on a hub dyno as these are acurate readings. 6MT only im afraid as you can't dyno auto's
let me know if your interested and i will put your name down.

Need a favour,

Can one of you measure the distance from outside edge to outside edge of wheel span. I am going to lay some slabs down the weekend on my gravel drive in two rows so i havn't got to drive through the gravel killing my tyres/rims.
Thanks

Tom

Hi all,

Standard 2003 5AT Premium Version, did have 17" standard wheels on, but replaced them with the 18" ones off a 350z, so i have the 17's for sale inc tyres, have just picked up a set of 20's for it but waiting on money for tyres seeing how cheapest is bout 600...

Once the 20's are on i'll have the 18's for sale aswell, which have 2 brand new yokohamas on the back...

I was looking through the posts n seen that exhaust for sale for 250, i was gona snap that straight up till i seen Airsoftandy knicked it 1st! lol.

Have got spoiler to go on aswell, so waitin to get that sprayed at same time as door.

Not taken any pics really so here a quick snap of it at banzai car show last month...

Tom,
just done it and it comes to 68inches on mine with 18 inch rims.
