Walking and thinking
I was just out walking because I am a fatass now and got to thinking what else I want to buy for the car before it is “done”.
So far I can come with
paint job
new LSD (maybe) I’ll see how I like this Nismo in the car once I drift it.
Safety21 door bars for the cage
Pivot fan controller
Grounding kit for the engine bay
Upgraded Stabilizer bars (Tanabe?) I’ll figure that out too once I drift it.
That seems to be it.
The LSD is the last big thing I want to get. I like that.

youre list is way shorter than mine… and at least youve got a few things worth some $$$ that i dream about owning (like the cage…), but you’ll get it done, it’s a bunch of money but as soon as you finish it, and you see your work done and you have fun in the car… all that is worth it…

IF I decided to ever go with a SR engine, my list would be HUGE…. but that isn’t going to happen.
Yeah, I was adding it up in my head, It isn’t TOO much more money.
If I consider that I will sell my old coilovers ($700 or so), my pair of WEDS ($400) and then eventually my current LSD ($500 or so), it takes off a large chunk of money.
I figure around $2000 more and that should cover it.

and you still have blitz 03’s sitting around
a lot of people use the nismo diff just fine but if it were me i’d go kaaz
any more ricey things? you should get a sub lol i’m going to
i wish you atleast went mild ka-t so you can have an intercooler

The Blitz 03s will be mounted up with new tired this weekend.
Decided to get some Dunlop Z1s. Heard they were good.
I had a CUSCO in the 14 and LOVED it. I’d like to do the same in this car. I think it only has a Nismo street diff or something.
No more rice things I guess. Stickers and maybe little trinkets and doodads.
I wish I had a nice front mount intercooler too…. oh well

Short lists are always good.
I wish I would make things simpler for myself like this.

Dousan – I just finally saw Sam online RIGHT NOW, so I’m asking. I had that TRUST oil cooler, but I just sold it. I’ll see what my oil gets like in this car. Probably hot. hah. SR, nope. cannot justify it at all. Didn’t hook up the gauges yet. Maybe this weekend. Sway bars, we’ll see how I like it.
soapguy – yeah show it to me.
xavier – doubtful on the knuckle kit.
