Rusty's Nismo Journal

exedy699

Okay have a few things to say here..

First:
Damn, Nice! Mind sharing pics of the inside? That beasts looks comfy!

Second:
Do you ever get people asking you what that is on the side of your truck? Haha. That's one well done truck.

Third:
All I can say about your build is wow. I've used your journal a few times as reference when it comes to trying to decide what route to take with my Nismo. I must admit what you've done is not only well done, but also a great choice of mods and execution (Not that I know much haha). I plan on mostly using the nismo as a track whore, but for now its my DD so I can't do much with it. I have followed your mods, and have a question or two if you have time to answer..
First, do you notice the car being weighted down by the large tires? A lot of people tend to avoid such wide tires since the weight (rather inertia they have) tend to make the car slow down a lot more when off the throttle. How do you feel it affected it in your case? Sort of related, did you also fit a tpms on those monsters?
Next, the Robispec harness bar. I have been looking into a mounting solution for a 4/5/6 point harness. I haven't seen if you particularly have mounted it. How is the bar holding up now? I will probably order one in the near future.
Last thing, the breaks! MONSTERS! How much difference did they make on the track? I also read you went for more aggressive pads later on. How much difference do they make, and did you have to adapt the ABS system? Would you consider having a bypass switch for the ABS to allow for more aggressive stopping?

All in all Rusty. Love your rides. You have talent sir.
