another money tree being delivered?

 

[r18-power]

Yeah I actually planted it Thursday! Lol Btw it did show up yesterday!



I also had @blue rocket (grfxp) make some ford center cap decals, I found that the center caps were too plain... great quality and craftsmanship as usual!


On a side note.. I saw a real R34 GTR today (blue rhd and all) it sounded and looked beautiful!! I can’t wait until they’re completely street legal without a crazy price tag!

It's the little touches that really makes a build.

 

[r18-power]

Definitely! I like the little touches, to me it makes a big difference..

Well I ordered the RMM today! Im just being held back by that intercooler! :/ I haven’t driven her in 1 week! Good old Camry this past week! She is overdue for a nice wash!

Downpipe came in today...



Some times I look back and I miss my 9th gen... here are some couple of pictures of her glory days... a CT Supercharger would have been nice....

[r18-power]

Thanks man! Yeah I guess its one of those things you miss when you no longer have it lol

 

[bauer311]

Don't feel bad I still miss my 05 350z. It was my first sports car.....then twins happened and I had to trade into something with room for the youngins.

Damn! Do twins run in the family?

I don't want kids (at least for now) but if we tried to have one and it ended up being two kids...

Damn yeah I understand, I wanted another s2k but it really wouldn’t have worked out with our son and my wife. At least I can take them in the ST, I’ve put 8k miles on the car in like 4.5 months Ive had the car lol I just love driving the darn thing! We have a “family car” (2018 VW Atlas) which we got in sept 2017 and it only has 4k on it lol.. I’m thinking of letting the ST rest more once im stage 3.

 

[r18-power]

Speaking of stage 3... My spark plugs came in as well as my rear motor mount! Just waiting on the intercooler... I hate back order!

What kind of numbers are people getting at stage 3?

 

[ron v]

I just put iridiums IX's on my b18c!!! $22 with a discount at my local Autozone.

I was the same way with my SI. I always say I'm not gonna drive it much and swear I'm gonna store it but it's way to much fun to drive a full bolt on k24 on E85. I'm at 47k in about 2 1/2 years if owning it.

Can't wait to see the ST on stage 3. Better post some vids!!!

It depends on the tuning company/tuner. Stratified (good company tunes speed3’s, EcoBoost engines, Subaru) with a stage 3 produces 270-290 hp 360-380tq. Now JST tuning (the tuner Ill be going with) pretty much just tunes the ford EcoBoost engines, he is great with them (actually owns a ST and RS himself) I was talking to him and he said on an aggressive tune (within save ratios for the engine) I would be making around 300hp and 390-400tq, but since I want to be extra save with the engine etc.. Im doing a more conservative tune which according to him should put me at 270hp and 360tq to the wheels. Stock ST produces 250hp and 270tq at the crank so the advantage in power with the mods is insane!

Nice! Yeah they were recommended to me by the tuner, what are yours gapped to? I ordered a set of pregapped plugs (0.026) from him which is what I need for the stage 3. Yeah I hate that though lol im seriously going to try my best though, Im glad I have the camry for a DD but it’s boring all I like from it is the sound system I put in it lol.. Yeah trust I cant wait to go stage 3 myself it really sucks that this intercooler is holding me back! I will definitely post vids after the car is fully tuned!

Also I think if you get a set of nice looking/light weight wheels on your Si you’ll fall in love with it even more! Ive always loved the RPF1’s on the Si’s looks nice and simple.
