Yes, that's the plan. Still waiting on the APR LPFP (and KWs, Milltek etc) but as soon as it arrives we'll be installing and then tuning.

I thought why not post up some photos of the other "toy" whilst I'm waiting for the other Roc parts to arrive.
Hopefully it's not against the rules - please let me know if it is.

Very nice! I’ve always had a soft spot for Skylines but never had the balls to buy one because I do too many kms and can’t afford a new one.

Thanks Ben. I bought my 9/1994 model back in 1999. It had done approximately 42,000klm and has 67,000klm now. I used it as a daily for about 6 months.

I ordered a Motec C125 for it yesterday and a set of Bosch 1650cc injectors. The current ID1050s are at their limit (mid 90s DC) and that's with base fuel pressure set at almost 58psi! The engine and supporting components are built for 1000hp territory, with the exception of the current gearbox. Boost will be increased from 29psi to 35ish.

Awesome! I will continue to live vicariously through you. Keep up the posts and pics please.

Will do. Between the two projects there should be something worth posting up on a fairly regular basis.

Well it took a bit of mucking about but the Forge catch can kit is finally in and plumbed up. We had to remove the barbed fittings from the PVC plate and use a pair of -10 Speedflow threaded fittings and then 90' adapters stepped up to -12.

It all fits neatly under the ECS carbon engine cover.

Looks awesome!
