OK so trying to figure out the best way to update this thread as its been so long ?
So straight off the bat she's had a serious amount more work done to her now ? its probably just easier to sum up the changes as honestly cant remember in what order I've done them now.
So she's now running a twinpass fmic, 2.5" full stainless system, bosch 9mm setup (installed by Sir Bash ?✊️), powerflex black wishbones, Side skirts, Baker bm engine mount kit, spax rsx coilovers, adjustable arb links, 307cc 304mm brakes and 16" xxr (probably more I've forgotten as per normal)
since the last post there's been several wheels and looks tried such as my banded steel phase..
I enjoyed the bandeds but just felt it wasn't the look I was after and these restricted me to 283mm brakes at the most. Continuing with my fast road approach I ended up making the leap to xxr 527 16". These aren't too alot of people's tastes but perfectly fit the look and style I was personally after.
More recently I've purchased another brake upgrade, these will be recognised as Stefan Golesworthy's 205 gti6 supercharged brakes.
The setup consisted of 4 pot nissan sumitomo also known as r33/300zx brakes and utilised 283mm disks with the aid of an adapter. After a play I soon realised the clearance wasn't so great on the xxr literally giving less then a mm clearance on the spokes. Luckily stefs currently working with me to design new adapters that will allow me to run the 304mm 307 disks which will actually solve the clearance issue aswell as giving me the excuse for bigger disks ?
On another note, finally got the last of the components and tooling required to build up the forged Xud.
I'm aiming to do 99% of the work myself just for a sense of accomplishment later on.
I do have a single question related to this which is should I purchase a brand new febi oil pump and chain or run the original?
But I doubt anyone will see this too reply ?
Would love to post some pictures up but seems the forums having a spack out currently. Feel free to follow my socials Justin_306DTurbo to see alot more upto date posts
