  1. Not sure exactly but I believe they supply a bit too much pressure in standard form from what I have read.
  2. Cheers. It's a tomei oil pump but Racepace modify it a bit to get the right oil pressure for the build.
  3. Not for much longer! Now.. to guard liner or not to guard liner...
  4. Making me feel I need to pull my car apart again Robbie! Not good mate haha... Looking amazing coming together so well
  5. Just a pair of stocky Sumitomo's on loan with makeshift brake lines! Rears are standard as well at the moment but recently rebuilt with good pads, slotted rotors and lines, they may stay put as silly as they look. My advisers tell me that they may do the job better than an aftermarket kit so I am out to test that notion.
  6. Ha! I have about 5 pairs of ex v8 supercar rotors waiting in the wings from before this damn car of the future stuff where they changed the diameter to ~395mm. They are 375mm x 36mm when new - you could get them down here second hand for ~$200-$300 / pair but supply has dried up (I took everything they had left!). I have a few pairs that are virtually brand new with half a mm of wear - from test days or something. I already have the working setup on my 34, just need to get new hats and dog bones made up. Before I do that I am going to swap the setup over, but using these calipers and make sure it all works happily before we go getting drawings made up and CNC machines out.
  7. Front brake calipers have arrived - will be swapping the setup on this weekend for a bit of testing.
  8. Yes still available - 6kg front & 4kg rear springs. They are the aus spec versions so valving has been developed for local road conditions.
  9. Now that would be awesome! Getting a sniff of 4jillion responsive kw could do bad things to my wallet however ...
  10. You are invading France by sea? So she will be water tight by then Look forward to seeing this whizz bang suspension ... intriguing
  11. Yeah give Motorsport Connections a yell - they haven't failed me yet with being able to adapt to whatever is required. Not sure about ebay but I think Speedflow control the price so generally they retail for same from all dealers. All the coolers I have dealt with have had AN fittings (JIC) or a metric female boss fitting that you can screw your desired male adapter into. I think you will need an adapter to use the Speedflow stuff on a BSPT but give them a call, tell them what you have to connect and find out your options.
  12. Might have been Aeroflow I was thinking of - can't remember http://www.aeroflowperformance.com
  13. I used Speedflow fittings and hose (115 teflon / black nylon braid) from motorsport connections in Moorabbin https://www.mscn.com.au Speedflow seem to be the best fittings I have seen, but check out Proflow as well - I think they are cheaper. Bends etc are not as tight from what I can see but the Speedflow ones are off the planet expensive. A good tip is the straight fittings are much cheaper than any of the bends so if you can get away with a straight its a good thing for the wallet. Google proflow - lots on ebay and I think you can buy them direct from their website.
  14. Cheers Evan for sure! Replaced the leaky brake line yesterday and took it for the maiden voyage - temp permit all legal of course. Lot's of fun up to 80km/h - looking forward to giving it a hiding on the track that's for sure.
  15. Haha Says the man putting GTR parts in his GTSt - you going to stroke it out to 2.6 as well?
  16. Cheers mate. The exhaust is also fitting the bill so far, not too noisy, not too quiet with a bit of titanium bark up top.
  17. Picked the car up yesterday. Unfortunately I wasn't able to drive it due to a leaky brake line I grabbed from wreckers as a temporary measure. Dyno chart shows normal tune (032) and against the final tune (039) after backing it off a bit for the track. The final tune against boost. Still sitting slightly under 20psi so the motor is definitely a good thing for what it is making on 98. Chris said the way it ramps onto boost is ideal as well rather than an initial spike which engines don't like. Just another gratuitous shot.
  18. I wonder what Cliff is up to now..... running a muck on the mean streets of Lisboa I am guessing, he did learn from the best on that trip. I still have a bit to do looking forward to getting back working on it. I am just going to hook up the Defi guages I have for monitoring for now - its a bit street racer but hey it tells me when things are good / bad and the buzzers will get my attention. Also need to sort brakes out, finish off a few things, and have also somewhat overlooked managing heat so want to do some stuff with that. I was quite tempted by an S6 RX7 roller that came up recently, not sure why but always loved the look of those things.
