    NZ Clio 172 - build thread

    Where abouts you located bud? I'm down in Christchurch, my mates currently fixing up his 182 here, would be cool to have a mini meet haha, although I don't own a clio anymore. These cars definitely show up the horde of Hondas at track days here. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

So installed an ultra racing front sway bar on the skidline and did another track day at Levels in Timaru, really good track day had lots of time and was keeping up with the big boys around the corners, just didn't have enough grunt down the...

    You get over it pretty quickly, just the way they do things here, could be alot worse like australia, where even a blow off valve is illegal D: I wouldn't let that put you off, New Zealand's amazing.

    Yeah only thing is if I get coilovers I need to certify my car, which means getting every modification noted on a plate that gets bolted to the firewall, and I can't change anything from that plate without recertifying. So I'm gonna do everything at the same time, hopefully towards the end of...

    Oh yeah I've installed GKTech's braided brake lines and braided clutch line too, forgot to mention that haha. Great upgrade, anyone looking to get into trackdays I would highly recommend getting your brakes sorted before going for power!

    Performed as expected, got chopped by Honda's but had a f**king good time! I think the tyres I got for it werent the best size, I went for a 225 45 17 on a 17x9 which is a bit stretched, I think when I'm due tyres Ill go for a 235 or 245 instead. Also would benefit from some coilovers, but it...

    To be fair it's f*cking light! Holds itself up haha, although that could be because the hinges need some wd40... Yeah it needs a bit of work but is a good base. The american honda guys would be creaming their pants over this haha.

    Decided to take the hit and get the 'legal stretch' Falken FK452 tyres in 225/45R17 as the Bridgestone's weren't wof-able. Might do me for a drift day though... Got another pair of tyres sitting about the garage too... Hmmmm....... Fills the arch a bit better now but the lip doesn't 'pop' as...

    Wooooow I suck at updating. So car failed it's warrant of fitness (mot) on some stupid little things, the inspector decided he was going to fail the car as soon as he saw it, so I've had to wait 28 days for the fail to exit the system, and then go to the place I usually go to where they're a...

    Right so nothing is straight forward haha... I thought it'd have like a setting where you say ok I want it to be XX psi, but nooooooo... You have 'offset' 'response' 'drop' and 'overboost'... Apart from overboost, everything is percentages... Percentages of what?! nothing makes sense haha. I...

    I did a thing! IMG_5910 by danedser, on Flickr IMG_5914 by danedser, on Flickr IMG_5911 by danedser, on Flickr Install was pretty straight forward, setting this thing up though... Pain in the arse! Got it boosting about 8.5psi now, which will do me until FMIC and tune :D

    Nissan Silvia S15 Spec R

    Just had a read of this, looking good mate! Was considering that apexi induction kit for the 33 myself, was about $150, or I could just buy a HKS style mushroom foam filter from work for $35 so I did that haha. You gonna look into any sort of boost control? Looked into Apexi's exhaust systems...

    The New 1000+hp FWD Nissan GTR LM Nismo Race Car!

    Just come across this article! I'm keen to see how the FF nature of the car will play out with the fact it has 1000+hp, it does have capable to send power to the rear wheels however, so its probably going to be more like AWD, even though they're trying to market it as a FWD car. Thoughts...

    Yeah those are basically defi rip offs haha, reading up on AFR gauges, apparently you need a wideband O2 sensor to get accurate readings -.- wish I put the money spent on the gauge into one of those. Should be back together and running some time next week, and boost controller, catch can and...
