Organise ours then J. Guaranteed a spot then

So many handling mods to go in! Things going to ride nice!!!

[jslayz]

Thanks Ian, once it handles its time for power

[Bezzza]

Still need to get my bushes, mounts and sway bar in.

Hit a kerb the other day pretty hard though so that has set me back a little
Cracked rim and stuffed tire, front rim beat up pretty bad too. Just lucky I have a 6th enkei in good shape!

[jslayz]

Whoa! I missed your post Ian.
Rest of car ok?

OK had all suspension mods installed on monday, effin loving the libby now!!
Things in the rear view mirror are small and get smaller with more bends.....
Gonna get corner balance soonas I can find someone who can do it.

On last Friday I lost my boost and was sad...


..apparently a piece of laminated wood had somehow found its way to the top of the motor and pushed the blowoff valve pipe off the inlet manifold

So spent a few hours getting this and the oil infeed leak I found sorted on Friday night, pics below:






Studip piece of wood!!!

Ok had local workshop attempt to fit my rear brembos with the cruising dogbones but the fukkkas didnt fit!
See pics below.
Was sold these as 2005 Brembos which clearly they are not.
Sanded and painted the too, what a waste of time! bummed as....






Great for my mate who has a forrester that will likely fit....
Now I need to get some more damn brakes!

However some good news is that my car only likes BP98 and has been running really well since I put it on the restricted diet of BP only.

ALSO had some T3 DBA 4000 front rotors and Project Mu Club spec pads installed.
Noisy but damn leave the Bendix unltimates for dead!

[Bezzza]

Car seems to be all fine, been a few weeks now and nothing falling apart fingers crossed!

Bummer the brakes don't fit, especially after prepping and painting

You sure everything is oriented correctly left/right up/down, calipers and adapters?

[jslayz]

You sure everything is oriented correctly left/right up/down, calipers and adapters?

Yes, unfortunately.....

[cruisn]

First pic the calipers have a bleed nipple point on both sides of the caliper piston (obviously L or R) with one blocked and the pad pins are different to STi Brembos. Not STi ones.

Evo ones?

[cruisn]

I should be able to get you some rear calipers from IM pretty cheap. PM me.

[jslayz]

Hey Mark,

u have PM.

J

[cruisn]

Just had a quick look around and 99.9% sure they're Nissan 350Z rear calipers.

PM replied.

[jslayz]

the 350z has a round depression on the edge of the dome, these have a small square.....
