French Rally Sunny GTiR

thanks moley!!

Anodising is the way to go, painting an anodised part is a crime!!

I'll go black you are all true, it's far more beautiful!!!

I've started to work on the alloy bowls for the ap racing 315mm disc to suit the hi spec brake kit!
I'll put some pics in next few days...

i'm gutted.... 

i just receive my superforma spacers to fit the enkeis....they are well made, and suits perfectly.
actually, i have 7 nt03, 3 of a set (4x114,3 stamped and measured ok ET43, 4 of another (4x114,3 stamped on the rear but truly 4x108, and ET35).

So a pair of spacers doesn't go on a pair of ET35 i'll put at the back of the car.
the pair of ET43 will suits well.

so i need to order a new pair for 4x108 wheels....

thought the r was 4x100? good progress look forward to seeing more pics

Yes mate they are 4x100 think fred got the spacers to suit the wheels not the pulsar so to speak .

I bought some wheel they doesnt fit, as enkei nt03 are impossible to find in 4x100 and 16". So i bought some pcd converter to suits them!

Many problems for something simple actually! But enkei really worth it!

Some news without pictures for the moment, yesterday a mate gave me a gearbox to rebuilt, and a transfert box too, and little bits like whiteline underbrace and a lh side frame for a bucket seat... 

Enkeis are ready for blasting and powder coating...

Ah ah sorry, it was nomad!  

Hi fred cars coming on nicely wish i had the money to change wheels and more on my car.

Il faudrait voir pour faire 1 meeting jai bcp d'ami qui roule en jap skyline , evo , toyota supra ....

oh un français!!! bienvenue sur le forum!

where are you from??

for the moment, i need to change the front RH wheel bearing and remove the front struts...not enough time these days...

Im near Limoges ... Moi aussi j'ai des problem de train avant je vien de commander des pieces chez bob

its me you contacted on leboncoin lol and we spook a few Times via email

ah ah!!! ok mate!!

I saw your  car for sale on leboncoin a long time ago it was it the alps before you bought it ?? Thé photos were taken in the snow ?

Are you sure about that?
because i know it was in the Gard (30), than near Toulouse (31), and the guy who i bought it from was in vesoul (70), and now it is in the alps (05) !! it has been advertise 2 or 3 years ago at a silly price and no one comes...so it has been sold with an EVO in lot...

i cant remember lol it looks the same as the one i saw on leboncoin ... i look on there all the time there is a red one forsale at the moment for 17 000 euros ....  

there is a white italian one LHD in Nice for 13000 and the red, it's a pulsar, for 17...but it really not worth the deal!!!

There's also a nice red LHD one for sale over here (Netherlands) for around €11.500,-
Waiting to get exported to France  

Ah ah, thanks for the offer ;-)

updates,
no time to work on the car these days, but i get my enkei sand blasted and they are now and the powder coating company.

i gathered some little parts to upgrade the car once the front struts will be down for the overhaul.
- i'm waiting for a boost controller
- got an innovate wideband kit
- samco TMIC hoses
- Sunny badge
- bushing for the gear linkage
- Dumpvalve to put on but a bung to make to blank the pipe from the plenum (if someone has one for sale...)

well need to work on, i hope next week i'll have the time to send the struts and work on all of this do list...

Here we are, front struts are down and posted to the manufacturer for overhaul.

swivel hub and drive flange are ready to be dismantle to remove the bearing and the right side cv boot and joint are down too for the boot changing.

pictures to follow

I have changed the bearing at mid day, this is done, it comes quite freely and easily, no need to use a press to get the old one off.

and remove all the studs on the superforma spacers.
they will go next week at the anodiser to have a super finish and fight against the corrosion.

enkei are not back yet from the powder coater...the paint was not thick enough at the first sight....

Well here some pictures!!


Sunny badge in the right place (was missing before!)


crack cv boot


cv joint and all down

i noticed a little pipe near the hks oil filter wich comes out from the gearbox...is any rubber pipe missing??

do you see it??

I believe its just a breather fred iirc mine has a rubber pipe on it that just goes nowhere ...

thanks mate

Mid day job, taking a look at the gear linkage...

- bottom bush changed by a poly bush one i found here on ebay

- i noticed the spring is really loose, so i'll get another, maybe stiffer....i'll see what do you think?
