Hiho. Long time no speak :) Not alot happened over winter, but pulling it out of its hide last week meant we could test the release bearings and other jazz that we'd got for it. Luckily they all worked and I made a crap video of the car moving around and stuff...

Yeah they're S13 ones. Think they were Nismo uprated jobbies. My custom mounts (the metal parts that are connected to the 1UZ) are **** though, need to make them better before the car is finished. Hopefully be done mid December (having to save up for getting the car mapped from scratch :( )

I used to run Tein Superdrift on my old JZZ30 Soarer, they were pretty good. Bigger cars need higher springrates (at least for the drifty side that I deal with :)). Had Tein Flex on an S14 before that, which was a bit soft for me, but good for road use. Man, I sound like a Tein employee...

Some pictures with a new camera, that I don't know how to use properly. Not bothering with a motorbike style dash now, the Defi display is far cooler and actually does MPH, which suprised me :) Cas fabricated the bracket to hold this on. Clevar. He also fabricated a few blanking plates.

Ah cool, hello fellow youtubers :D I have Tein HE coilovers on mine. It's very, very low. The sump sits about 3 fingers from the floor - still to sort that out! What front sway bar did you use? I've not got one on at the moment.

6pm on the 19th October 2008 is the day that the UZS13 was reborn. Here's a little video. A teaser if you will. The car has no map on it at all at the moment, hence why it sounds a bit odd. It still has a few bits to go, but just getting it running has made me go all the way and finish this...

It is hitting part of the dashboard. I'll be moving on to sorting out bits like that after it fires up and runs (not long now!). I did comment on one of your videos. I've been watching them when I lose focus or run out of "arsed-ness". The sound of the 8 screaming really gets me back on it :)

I'm using an ECU called VEMS. There will be alot of videos recorded once it's up and running :) Thankfully I have two racetracks within 20 minutes of where I live, so testing wont be a problem :) I hope for my sanity that it will be up and running very soon :alcoholic:

Trying :D So, it looks like it's finished (although it isn't :wack: ) for JAE. Rads came down and worked his ass off :D He started by painting the interior up nicely again. Then finally assembeled the dashboard componentés. Next day we dropped the engine back in, tarted it up a...

Thanks for the information :) Yeah the UK's police cars are generally little 1.8 litre or less 4 cylinder Fords. The traffic police generally get faster stuff - but they're being phased out and replaced with cameras :) To go back to an earlier point about fuel prices. My parents phoned me...

Hallo. I'm one of those gutter-trash poms that is soon to be joining the west coast of Australia. :) I've got a question for the Western Australia locals, thats sadly after these 8 pages of non-car interesting talk, is about cars. What are the police's views on highly modified cars like...

I'd forgotten i'd posted this, even though i've been here recently looking for firing order information and other bits :) My car should be finished in about 3 weeks now, everythings been bought, just waiting for the last few bits to filter through the shitty UK postal system :) Last thing that...

I'm looking at some cams that I believe will be efficient to those revs. I'll probably have a soft cut limiter at about 7.5k and a hard at 8k just incase things go squiffy :)

I've not had a chance to drive it yet, waiting on a hydro release bearing for the clutch setup. We've decided to hack the sump to bits and fabricate a new one, so will just get a S13 bar and hack that about too. Projects proving to be a complete pita, but will be worth it when screaming around...

Yeah, a teammate stole it for his car. I've heard that Cefiro ones will fit around the engine, but will probably have to be modded too. Everything else has so far :)

Hi all. I've been working with some helpfull friends on this swap since the CA18 that was in my car previously decided it wanted to kill its oil pump. That was back in July 07. I use the car over here in the UK as a drift car, had some success in it, but have taken a sort of forced sabbatical...

Hi everyone :) I've only just started my project, but hope to have it finished by just after Christmas. The engine from the LS400 in the background will be going into the S13 in the foreground, after some working, and probably alot of hacking about to get it in :) Here's a quick picture...

Very impressed!!
