Haha cheers stu , I have a few more pics I will put up as you've moved it to here . Basically got it 5 or 6 years ago just after it was importe into the country and it's been used mainly as a track car ever since . It had and extensive engine rebuild about 2000 kms before we got it and this is a rough spec of the top of my head .

Ported head
Tomei cams
Pulsar 3" TB
Titanium valve springs
Rocker arm stopper
Nismo head gasket
Balanced crank
0.2 over sized pistons with wpc processing
Nismo rod bolts
850cc injectors
Trust oil cooler
Larger dia water pump pulley
Gt3076 turbo
Mazworx manifold
44mm tial wastegate
R34 150mm intercooler

Os giken twin plate clutch
Cusco 1.5 way diff
Uras gearbox mount
Tein tie rods
Kei office type xr coilovers
Larger anti roll bars front and rear
Nismo brace bar and lower arms
Piro traction rod
Piro toe control rod
R33 brakes front
R32 rears
Okuyama 7 point roll cage
Additional gauges

That's about it and that was off the spec sheet from Japan , it's just had a full paint to freshen it up and it's also now in the process of having the rb25 gearbox conversion after the other one what itself on the way to apt Saturday lol . It's also running apexi power FC fitted and mapped by Gary and is running 415hp at just over a bar of boost , as soon as the new gearbox is in we will raise the boost and see what it makes .

Cheers
Rob

415?! Fuck me........you'd better update your signature

I bet that goes like stink being so light. How do you find traction on circuit? Do you have to be progressive with the throttle all of the time or can you hook grip up easily enough? (I have visions of you getting mad wheel spin in fourth)

Lovely car. How do you find rear end grip without a rear spoiler?

V3 Sti · Post by **V3 Sti** » Sun Sep 02, 2012 9:22 pm

Not having a spoiler doesn't seem to have any affect , as for grip it's not to bad when the semi slicks are nice and warm , stu I have to be very careful with the throttle , if you just plant it you'll end up facing the other way so you have to bring it on slowly then when you are almost straight plant it and all hell breaks loose lol . I can't wait to run some proper boost and see how it goes then .

With normal road tyres I have traction problems in most gears especially if it's bumpy , I've had a few brown pant moments when your flat out in 4th and go over a bump and it starts to spin !

Very very nice mate

I'd have thought a bigger front bumper to help with the intercooler should be next
