Looking sweeeeet!!

What are you using to bung up the rear wiper hole?

the hat

a big rubber grommet lol the wiper never worked and it was just more weight i dont need im gonna get cracking on stripping the interior asap and if anyone needs rear interior parts there all out and can have hem for the price of postage+ a couple of beer tokens

the hat

also need o get the wheels matching in coulour any ideas ?
 
will also be attempting to squeeze my new 10j wheels under standard arches next time im home lol bring on the stretching and flaring

dthebuk

\'91 FC TII - Drifter... Under construction :D
:burnout

the hat

yeah but i need that turbo 2 splitter from you as the s13 one is a bit funny looking

m1tch

What lowering springs are they? what drop did you go for? Btw I would get an aftermarket radiator at some point, although at least you havn\'t been silly and ditched the cowling!

the hat

yeah its on my to fit list i have one here bur will do it next time im home from offshore im unsure of the make as i got them from a freind and they were quiet scabby i fitted them but was not happy so out with grinder and off came a coil really need to buy daves coilovers tho

What is the tyre size? I have some 265 rears to put on, so I am guessing thats 10"? Do you need the rear spacers for clearance on those current rims?

the hat

no dont need he rear spacers but do need the front spacer im gonna go with 225 on a 10j wheel as i currenly have 215 on 9j wheel my missus skyline came with 265 om a 9j wheel

papercutout

Yeah, Mitch you can\'t judge wheel width from tyre\'s, people stick any old thing on! A \'factory\' fit tyre on a 10J is probably at least 285!

What wheels are they dude? Tasty looking car.

the hat

right have a couple of small problems
 
i dont run a dumpvalve bu am i right in thinking this is whats causing my massive juddering as i come of throttle due to the afm beinga stupid plungery thing
as i have a nice hks one i can put on
 
also the stock afm looks like a big restriction if i was to use an apei safc2 could i replace it for something else
 
and with regards to plugs any ideas what i should go for now as there still stock and really need replacing

L18M

would your juddering be related to faulty dashpot?
as for afm, just know you can get rid of it if u go standalone and use a 3bar map sensor.
2 doritos on a stick woohoo :rollin

the hat

my car has not got one if its the part im hinking your talking about
 
and it never made he juddering before im thinking that its due to the volume of air that is now being forced back through the turbo etc when i back off he throttle
 
i guess ill fit the chump valve and see how it goes
 
any ideas on plugs liam?
