GipsySpec.B Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 All the pretty Sparco and other blue sub-frame, frame and support bits really look fantastic with the Cars color. Tiny gorgeous details. If you're ever looking to downsize your collection of exhaust bits keep us posted haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soba noodle Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 Last bit of the rear suspension puzzle. A few months back when I was compiling my Cusco orders I pretty much ordered a Cusco 684 492 R lower power brace, pretty much because I went online to double check the numbers/fitment and found a few posts saying that the brace is not 100% perfect for facelift models - two centre points have nothing to bolt on. I know at least some pre-facelift JDM models had a thin brace there from factory with appropriate holes in the space saver well. Nothing like that under my facelift BLE. http://goo.gl/858OVm So I changed my mind and gave up on that idea. Until someone told about one specific UltraRacing brace, exactly the type that should fit perfectly with only two mounting points: part number UR-RL2-1431. Found a NZ supplier - pretty much half of what I was prepared to pay for Cusco (new vs new). Ordered, recieved next morning, installed a few hours later. To be honest I was a bit sceptical about UR products. Never seen one in person, just heard a few silly things about. Quality is definitely there, very well done. Really like the metal plate with a serial number on it. Install is easy, in fact it took much longer to remove the plastic wrap and the (bloody) sticker than install the whole thing. I reckon I'm done with the rear set-up, a few ideas for the front. Said good bye to Trust/Greddy mufflers and welcomed controversial Liberal Albero squares back - I actually missed the sound (and a bit of the look, let's be honest here) of them.

darklegend06 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Great setup.. Nice pictures. Just a quick question about your roof rack setup with the whispbar... How did you setup your rack with your window visor? Also is it possible to take a picture of your setup? I'm very interested in it. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you setup your rack with your window visor? Also is it possible to take a picture of your setup? I'm very interested in it. Thanks Cheers. The hooks go under the monsoons which means you have to cut small gaps in double sided tape that holds the visors. Not the most ideal situation but that the only option if you want to keep the monsoons on (and I certainly do). I sealed the hooks with some tape to stop water leaking through the gaps, not really noticeable unless you look under the visors. I'll try to remember to snap some pics. Other than that the fitment is perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead Mr. Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Nice whip man. I always get pumped when I see another H6 guy dolling up their car. What's the pump for? Are you running out of fuel? I'm doing an EZ36 Swap into my 3.0R and now I'm wondering if I should be doing the same...

soba noodle Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Boom! Found some info about rear brake rotor inserts I got with my Brembo set-up. Turned out it's a kit made by a JDM tuning company called T.N Guts. Available from japanparts for JPY67,962 (adapters + rotor inserts + bolts). Dammit, this find certainly made my evening Some picsies I stole from minkara.co.jp (seems like it's a fairly common mod) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soba noodle Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 It's exhaust time again, a bit more complex now. Japanese mild steel headers + 2.5" pipework + 3rd cat delete2.5" mid section with 400mm AdrenalinR resonator2.5" stainless Y-sectionHKS ES Premium mufflers Got the headers a while ago, they came on a freshly imported 3.0 and were removed by a dealer, no name and reckon these were made up for someone in Japan. Other alternatives: Raptor headers from Australia or K2Gear from Japan (bloody expensive and nearly impossible to find used). Custom collectors, otherwise stock.Then I managed to find a stainless 2.5" all the way through mid-Y section that needed some modifications on the mufflers' side. And came up with a plan to build my own exhaust... Pipe in a pipe - this is what you'll find inside your main pipes past the cats, rather silly: Spiral louvre baffles inside AdrenalinR resonator: Let the fun part begin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To add to the crazyness you'll also need to buy a special wiring harness for another JPY10k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
