nice work. can't see myself spending money to powdercoat brake dust shields, but you certainly have an eye for detail.

Update:

Ok, i sold the old K-Sport-Style coilovers and got myself a set of Tein's, i like !!!




















The next thing to do is to modify my engine bay, because of the 9" wide front rim with 235/40 on it i'll hit
the wheel arch if i would have full steering lock.

Full lock:





Distance between the tyre and the wheel arch:





The limiting factor:




The old wheel arch will be cutted approx. like shown below:





Made some templates, this is how it should look:

Update:

As my uncle bought hisself an S13 hatch also with a broken ca18det in it, i saw my chance to swap for a RB25DET.

So i sold him my old Stage III+ CA18DET and was looking for a RB25DET and found a "500hp-engine" in England after one week of searching,
however at the first time i just wanted the engine but the seller made me a good offer and so i bought the engine with the whole
car.

However i'll put the engine out of the cefiro when my hatch is finished so far and the Cefiro shell is already sold to someone as i dont like 4 door saloon cars at all now.

- DW Subframe bushes
- S14 5 Lug Swap front & R33 5 Lug Swap rear
- R33 GTS-t Front & Rear brake system
- WORK Rezax 3-piece 5x114,3 18x8.5 front (215/45) and 18x9.5 (225/45) rear


Engine Spec:


- freshly rebuild RB25DET
- Wiseco Pistons
- ARP Manifold Studs
- 1.5mm Cometic MHG
- Tomei 256° Intake Poncam
- Tomei 256° Exhaust Poncam
- HKS Exhaust Cam Pulley
- HKS Cam Belt
- HKS GT2835R Turbo A/R 0.87
- external Wastegate
- Z32 AFM
- Apexi Intake
- SARD FPR
- Nismo 555cc Injectors
- GREDDY Oil Filter Relocation Kit
- GREDDY Oil Cooler Kit
- DW Wasted Spark Remote Coil Pack
- Iridium Spark Plugs
- Cusco Oil Catch Tank

Update:

The ceffy arrived from England:

As the cefiro was/is a drift car its pretty much beaten up but thats fine with me, also some jerks tried to steal the car in England and thats why some windows and the taillights are broken, but thats fine with me.

The IC was disassembled because the low front end would have scratched on the ramp of the trailer:








Apexi Intake isnt installed jet:

We did it by ourself, it's was the first time for us, we fucked up the front ones and decided to do the rear ones better and it worked pretty well, however i'll go for front 20mm overfender anyway.

It's a special mixed color from a paint shop, the biggest part of it is VW Flash Red.
