My plans revolve around waiting and waiting and waiting till my car arrives from Japan!!

However, I shall be using the time wisely and purchasing a few goodies ready for its arrival. This will more than likey include:

FMIC
Fuel Pump
Boost controller
Coilovers
Z32
ECU
Exhaust
Induction
Injectors
Plus anthing else I can think of in the mean time.

Then, Sometime during the summer its new turbo time which will probably end up being a GT3071R unit. Then we find out what a stock engine S15 makes and for how long!!!!

Put the new gearbox on.

This will involve fitting:

Replacement 6MT
Nismo Super Coppermix
Nismo big clutch slave cylinder
Nismo strengthened pivot
APP clutch hose

Other thing I would quite like to do is fit the auto mirror close circuit... :rolleyes:

Think that's just about everything then...

You should add a chip or new ECU with that.
The engine can take qiute alot of punishment. It's the gearbox you should be worrying about. :)

My plans are:

S15 plans
*Fit Oil cooler with relocation kit and in-line thermostat.
*trial fit new wheels when they arrive.
*try to fit fog-lights (involves making custom brackets and some custom wiring).
*fit Speedbleeders (for the brakes)
*engine, brake and diff oil change
*reconnect the OCT
*fit rear camber arms


Skyline.
*wash and wax :)
*convert headlights for LHD traffic
*Trial fit black BBS wheels
*general preparations for Swedish registration
*clean interior and engine bay
*save money like a backwards goat to be able to afford the paperworks needed for registration
*engine and brakeoil change
*fit speedbleeders (for the brakes)

Golf.
*oil and filter change
*occasional wash

ECU was on my list buddy ;) Did notice i left clutch of that list tho!!

Im hoping that the box can take a bit more punishment than the GTIR box but we will see . Has anyone really ever pushed the standard 6speed box to see what it will take before it destroys itself?? The Pulsar box internals aint to bad but its just that the helical cut gears put excessive pressure on the box end casing and causes it to break :( Maybe I will just search around a bit first and start up a new thread with regards to the box :thumbs:

Cheers

what's the status of the instructions?

My winter projects will depend on when my engine finally arrives from Australia... hopefully I'll get everything on my list installed over the winter and ready for Spring.. :)

The difficulty is that there is no wiring diagram for mirror close circuit, as they weren't fitted to the ADM cars and, therefore, aren't included in the ADM workshop manual. In itself this isn't a problem, however the auto-close circuit is a multi-car fitment and the instructions don't say 'for S15, use this wiring layout'. They just say 'check the workshop manual for you wiring layout' :rolleyes: The translated instructions help a certain amount, but I need a sparky to help out with the rest. Once I've done that, I can do a 'small charge' write-up to help pay for the cost of the translation :)

my plans involve waiting on the car to arrive then full service head to toe then a remap and some subtle changes like carbon mirrors and a nice nismo rear spoiler and to get rid of the horrible chrome lights that are on the car :hurl:
