cuzzo Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 Any details of the front brake setup? Â Custom brackets for the caliper? What strut is that and what hub/disc? Quote
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 wow mate nice update! looks good with the intercooler hidden, and the smooth engine bay looks insane, no pics of the new wheels?? Quote
Jono.C Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 Looks much better without the intercooler showing and the different grill  What wheels do you have now? Quote
johnny t Posted August 16, 2014 Author Report Posted August 16, 2014 Thanks matt there was sooo many hours in that bay! Could of been more but how far do you go. Love the wheel tubs and towers so smoooth 😊 Full credit to my man brad clark with his small buisness static customs panel and paint down here in tassie. Such a perfectionist Oh bugger i thought I put one up was in a rush will attatch one now.. yeah so much happier with intercooler hidden 😁 So the brakes are from my old set up which was ra40 struts with a ford 285mm disc with r32 4 pot caliper and all I done was put a weld in bc br gold coilover jn it with 8kg springs I also got a new knuckle ao I can get more lock 😉 ideally id like a different set up as the stub axel is really long and sticks outside the wheel and the cap can't cover it. But I spent to much to change. Quote
johnny t Posted August 16, 2014 Author Report Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) So have my wheels and steam pipe manifold wrapped and sprayed in hi temp silicone spray to resist against oil dirt ect sticking to the heat wrapping and my new knuckles ☺ Edited August 16, 2014 by johnny t Quote
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted August 17, 2014 Report Posted August 17, 2014 The wheels look real good, tough as. Quote
johnny t Posted August 18, 2014 Author Report Posted August 18, 2014 Thanks man I'm also getting lighter tint on the windows so the wheels don't look so dark and stand out more Quote
