Yeah i was looking forward to having the supercharger on. ahhh well.
The supercharger was has been sold.
We only had 3 track nearby and 1 has been sold to make way for housing. leaving 1 shit track and one good track.
I took the headers off so i can get some oxygen sensor ports put in for my wideband and then ill ceramic coat the headers.

I got some pipes to replace the cats for going on the dyno and track. these are now black.

Its a close to standard WRX. no engine mods as its just my daily.
some more updates




stuffed it when installing the front brace and realised that i had put it in the way of where the electric fan goes.. grrrrr




started with the pedal box. bent up all the new lines






brake light button

Rear caliper bracket cut and trial fitted and nissan logo gone too



discs

rear calipers fitted with brand new high strength bolts



some fluids for the car.

after finding out one of the rear calipers was stripped i got another one and bolted it on.
Put some oil in and wound up the oil pressure to find i had missed covering up one of the holes that provides high pressure oil to the vanos unit. So Had to plug that up and oil pressure was reached.
Then was next onto wiring.
This is what it looked like in S50 Wiring style

mounted the battery back in the boot where it started life origionally
Then started pulling it down to bare requirements which a mate had helped me with.


got it to this point

yes it is....
worst pedal box ever........ nothing like what they said. weighs more than what they said. dosnt mount to the floor like they said which they have admitted. there is nor brake light switch. no accelerator cable pick up. the pedals angles are all wrong and if you 5 1/2 foot or over tall there is no way the seat in a standard slider will work even at the furthermost position back. Im goig to have to mount my bucket seat on bolts much further back so my head is inline with the 'b' pillar and then extend the steering wheel backwards at a different angle.
or
install my tilton pedal box in like i was going to initially but thought the obp would be an easy plug and play method liek advertised. unfortunatly i wont be able to sell the $1200 heap of junk OBP pedal box that dosnt fit anything. So im stuck with it.....
sorry for the rant. But i think somthing that dosnt even fit a car advertised let alone have any connections is a pretty poor effort.
Some of their other products could be good.

yeah
i would stay well away from them in the future. Im still waiting to take action with them. Even with the tilton pedal box and tilton short master cylinders the floor mount pedal box sits about half an inch further forwad than the origional pedal box. Its just the crappy firway angle thats makes it hard. I havnt seen any decent hanging pedals mounts that i have liked due to the limited area the E30 has.
