UPDATE!!! 14.12.2006

I have recently lost my licence and the hachi is off the road for 6 months, so the transfiormation has started, I'm just doing a few little things at the moment like removing sound deadner, getting the motor ready to come out by pulling of un needed things like the a/c compressor and condenser etc. when I get some more cash in my pocket ill be buying a custom bellhousing for a w series box, and a microtech ecu to run my 20v, but anyway here are some pics of my progress for now, ill keep you all updated

sound deadner out of the boot so far.

new engine mounts



started painting inside where deadener has been removed


and the microtech


UPDATE!!!!! 4.4.2007

well havent done anything more to the car itself since last updat accept sussing out my method of wiring the microtech and came to the conclusion that to make it a neater wiring job I will need a new loom so I purchased a 99% complete blacktop wiring loom for $150. I also drove to brisbane today to track down the rest of my rwd cooling kit from anthony kellam that waited 3 months for then only got half of it, so I had to drive 3 hours to brisbane to get the rest of the parts I didnt want to wait another 3 months for and also realised I didnt post a pic of my 4ag/w5x bellhousing so here's some pics hope you like


the cooling kit


the loom


the bellhousing


UPDATE!!! 12.4.2007

well havent done too much to the car since last update, I put the quads on and put my new pintara rotors on my t series now just doing measurements for the custom calliper brackets

here's a few pics:

quads are on. :2thumbs:


new brakes, rotors need machining but can't complain for free diskies


UPDATE!! 8.5.2007

well another update..... havent done a great deal lol I have knocked the sound deadner out of the front half of the car now and have had the cops called twice for doing it(noise complaints lol) glad thats done...also got my new wheels they are longchamp xr4's in 14x6.5 unsure on offset I think 1 pair is +10 and unsure on other but they sit well on the hachi...also got my oil cooler kit almost finished I have everything installed bar the cooler as I don't have it yet... made custom oil return fitting for the sump...forgot to take pic b4 it went back on the car but yeah... will have the wiring started in a few weeks as I have to take my car to clemo55's workshop to do it and I'm not doing that till I have fully paid for my w58 which will be paid for soon hopefully and then ill be able to throw the whole running gear in it and wire it and it should move lol then I just need to get extractors and an exhaust made and a set of trumpets and I should be able to drive it... will do the un neccesary mods while it's on the road as I have a very strong urge to drive it anyway here's a few pics: :2thumbs:

another little add to the guage department so I don't have to have a big gay monster tacho with full hektik massiv shift lite broooo

it's an autometer DPSS has 4 digit rev display with small but bright LED shiftlight, needed this as I couldnt be farked buying the secial plug for higher rev signal in my other one, I think this one displays up to 10 or 11k rpm so pretty happy with it, I swapped it for my other shiftlite (thanx timmay) here's a pic

UPDATE!!!! 6th september 6.9.07

got coilovers today from mark at banzai, they have what im pretty sure is cusco cambertops and unsure on shocks and spring rate, estimated to be around the 6-8 kg mark any way heres a pic...



i will be modifying theese to go onto my struts and painting them up all neat n shit, should be done on sunday, more pics then


UPDATE!!! 18th september 2007

hey all i have finished coilovers and they sort of went well, first of all i had trouble with the threads in the struts and gland nuts aswell but i managed to get them in there very ghetto, i will be building new strut tubes when i get some good shocks as well but theese will work for the time being, also they dont go low enough so i need some shorter springs, and last of all i cleaned my shed so i can now walk all the way arpund my car without haven to step over anything haha

people who know me know i dont tend to clean up until things get really bad or i get really bored haha

anyways here are a few more pix, there will be another update tomorrow, interior paint will be done, cheers
