    Thanks mate! What were you in? I only found out about the flames after I got off track - First time out tuned.
    I'd love to see how it goes in the dry with grip - It surprised me quite a bit!

    I got to passenger in Fa77 white vx ss, videod the run, was hard though cause we couldn't use first gear for most of the time due to the rain couldn't get any traction, but yours was pulling hard thought it definitely would have been bigger turbo n supporting mods, flames were awesome

    Haha! Yeah, I had to use 3rd - 2nd would just spin - Would love to try again in the dry - Most people would have gotten me then I assume.

    I actually like the Sil80's better - I just ended up with this!
    I like the front end, the rear not so much, it's going to be hacked up over the next few years with a diffuser / wing etc.
    I'm all about Function > Form - So it doesn't have to look showroom at all.

    I just didn't want it staying matte black.

    So - Not much has happened for a while - Been buying and selling a few other cars - working 2 jobs etc.

    I've finally decided to put my ass into gear and signed up for my first track day.
    Lakeside time attack series - Round 1 on the 22nd of March.

    Car is currently going through the final stages to get prepped.
    Removed the diff over the weekend - New NISMO 2 way going in this week.
    Mounted the fire extinguisher - Removed and re-fitted the racing seat and adjusted the racing harness ready to go.

    Only thing left before racing are:

    Fit 2 new front tires, fit new brake pads and fluid, re-fit diff, fix crack in intercooler silicone.

    Should be a fun day out and hopefully will get some decent laps in (However never racing lake side I doubt the times will be impressive)

    I'm loving it... Its come a long way and I'm really impressed.

    How much work was it to fit the S15 dash??

    Post #17

    Thanks DECOY - It wasn't too hard. Just had to remove a few bracket from the firewall and customize a little. Drill into the support bar to mount the sides.
    I'm happy with the result - Think it looks mint =)

    Weekends festivities are getting closer - 2 way is now in the diff and sorted - Being fitted tonight then off to Mercury Motorsport to have a few small things sorted out before the race!

    Just have to take it extremely slow and careful - As I've never driven with a 2 way before.
