Re: Matt's Red GN
I recommend using the LCA from an R31 to keep the track a bit narrower. You could drill more holes in the crossmember but I fear this could lead to bad bump steer. The Sigma castor rod will line up with one hole in the LCA. Make sure it's the one with the smaller diameter hole. You can then bolt thr...

Re: Matt's Red GN
The S13 column will bolt right up. You will need to rewire it obviously (I haven't done that yet - may post a diagram if i make one). You will need to install 3 rivet nuts in the floor. I also suggest disassembling the column. Factory tilt function will still be functional. http://i58.tinypic.com/5l...

Re: Matt's Red GN
Thank Geezer! It's awesome to get some appreciation for this. As you have mentioned the turbo manifold and rack conversion I will share some more details about them! I know you didn't really ask for more info about the manifold but I like talking about it (H) A fair bit of work went into that manifo...

Re: Matt's Red GN
Today I got a smaller oil cooler that would clear my turbo. It has ROF-99 written on it. I think it's off a Subaru Forester. http://i59.tinypic.com/rrr12e.jpg I also chased down some of the turbo fittings I needed and welded (dodgily) an oil drain onto the sump. I also found a bung in the block behi...

Re: Matt's Red GN
I did the tig welding. It's a bit rough but functional. I have a bit of a complex about doing everything myself.

Re: Matt's Red GN
Thanks mate! Yeah steering conversion is complete. Japanese cars are basically like Lego it seems.

Re: Matt's Red GN
I was a bit concerned with how close the turbo was to the steering so I modified it a bit.

Matt's Red GN
I bought this red GN with a slipping clutch for 800 bucks in August last year. The condition was too good to allow it to slip into the hands of the common bogan. http://i58.tinypic.com/fxgti.jpg I replaced the clutch, pulled the motor down and replaced all the seals. Installed Manga head and EFI. He...

My Introduction
Hi,
My name is Matt. I have a GN Sigma. I cut the springs with a grinder and put some other wheels on it to make it look cool.
I don't really see many of these cars around anymore.
