Hi guys:Thumbsup!
Not been on here much since i swapped my FD for a Skyline:flamed
However i have decided to sell that post haste because a good mate of mine imports (mainly modified) cars from Japan. He picked this up from the dockstoday & seen as it\'s probably the most mental RX i\'ve ever seen i don\'t think i have any choice but to buy it.

It\'s an RS-R edition (pretty sure there\'s only 1 or 2 of these in the country)

and has a wide body kit (possibly RE-A) along with a genuine AD9 bonnet and a nice carbon kevlar spoiler.



 It\'s clearly bridge ported judging by the sound of the engine!
It\'s running a T51 SPL turbo the biggest intercooler i\'ve ever seen, it has an additional fuel rail welded onto the lower inlet manifold just above the secondary rail.


It gets better....

Thats an HKS FULLY SEQUENTIAL gearbox! and it\'s completely mental!!
Combined with the most aggressive diff i\'ve ever experianced full throttle gearchanges are completely nuts!:yes
All the coilpacks have been removed from the engine bay & instead it has these in the place of back seats

It\'s also runs an Apexi power fc ASWELL AS an HKS Fcon ecu????

WTF??? I didn\'t even know that was possible! The power FC appears to be running a very old base map so the FCON must controlling the bulk of the engine map (along with the additional injectors)
It\'s also got S**t loads of gauges & controlers

along with some special anniversary dials?

This car is obviously a serious weapon and appears to have been drag raced in japan
Any comments are welcomed along with any info on parts i may have missed or not noticed!
Is there anyway i cannot buy this??:yes


Oh yeah it\'s also got these...

:flamed

AshRX

fell in love with it till i saw the lambo doors.......big no no in my book, but up to you Liam

Lum

Yeah i know mate! They\'d have to come straight off! Surely this has the spec to be one of the fastest FD\'s in the country doesn\'t it?

AshRX

what power and boost is it running?

cant see any water injection though

its the kazama wide arch kit isnt it?? :S lambo doors are a big no now tho!
 

 
how much is it?

gmogle

Is that a standard rad though ? The bonnet doesnt seem to fit well near the bumper.

But other than that it looks ace, really unusual bodykit.

AshRX

yeah it is standard. Cant see it running much boost. Get the rad changed mate

Lum

Yeah i thought the standard rad was a bit rubbish!
No idea about the power or boost level as we don\'t wanna drive it on too much boost till we\'ve checked the map & AFR\'s, however with it running both Power FC & FCon that\'s not gonna be as easy as it sounds lol

The bonnets not shut properly mate thats all.

Check engine rebuild status and boost map, last thing you want is to buy it and then blow it on the way home.

Looks quite good, ECU\'s need tidying away and the lambo doors is a personal thing really, potentially very fast rx :Giggle

Anybody have any info on the Sequential box? I didn\'t realise HKS made one for an FD?

AshRX

Darren @ Whifbitz runs run

Lum

The Fcon is plugged in mate! (the red light is also flashing so looks like it\'s been locked)
The wiring\'s an absolute mess but they\'re both plugged in & doing something.
Is an FCon designed to run alongside a standard ECU?

Ed_RX7

yes and they are pricey....around £5k.....if this has been used for drag mainly the std rad would be fine.....if it were track then a big no no......buy it coz if you dont i might just have to!!!
