  1. Have a flick through this thread, there's heaps of good ideas / info: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/55845-rb25-turbo-upgrade-all-dyno-results/
  2. Sounds to me like your cousin got off lightly. Driving on L's without proper supervision is not only hazardous to other road users, and his "misses", but it's just plain stupid and irresponsible. If your cousin had been involved in an accident it is highly unlikely that he would have been covered by insurance. The number of people that come to the forums and complain about police treatment after clearly being in the wrong is tiresome; I don't know what they're teaching people in driving schools these days but it obviously isn't enough.
  3. Here's a guide to doing your cam belt: http://www.gtr.co.uk/forum/154628-how-do-cam-belt-service.html
  4. I recently did a similar thing as my car is being retuned on E85 in the next couple of weeks. I replaced the fuel hose around the fuel rail / fuel filter with some Gates Barricade stuff from Repco which is apparently bio-fuel friendly. Installed the injectors at home. The hard lines I left as they were. Also pulled the fuel tank out of the car when I changed the pump over (don't forget to upgrade the wiring if you haven't already) to make sure that it was clean inside (couldn't really see that well in the garage with a torch) but as it turned out it looked like new. I've read elsewhere that if your tank is dirty you can throw in some E85 along with a few marbles or ball bearings and swirl it around. I also replaced the hose inside the fuel tank with the Gates submersible stuff to be safe. I'll fill the tank with E85 and get the car picked up by a tow truck. Easy!
  5. From the last page of the RB26 dyno results thread:
  6. $350 + postage These came out of my aftermarket fuel rail but should fit standard RB26 fuel rail.
  7. Hey mate, nice build! Car looks lovely How's this wiring setup held out so far? Any leaks through the connector or did you seal it up with epoxy or something similar?
  8. That's what I was thinking, sits right down in the lowest part of the cradle. I'm not sure of the ID but it came with the pump so I'm assuming it's a Walbro branded sock. Maybe I'll just chuck it in and see how it goes - should be ok I suppose!
  9. Just to bump this a bit - in the attached pic I've positioned the fuel pump in the cradle as I would like to mount it (upright - got the idea from trustr32 on here). I'm just concerned that the sock might be too small? The pump is a Walbro 450lph unit as mentioned above. Does anyone think the size of the sock will cause any restriction problem? It does sit very nicely right in the bottom of the cradle which is why I'd like to mount it like this.
  10. Not sure if the comments made in this article are true but to be fair I was a bit disappointed when I read them. Given the amount of negative attention car enthusiasts have been given over the last few years one would want to be squeaky clean. http://www.news.com.au/national-news/federal-election/six-people-you-won8217t-believe-could-be-elected/story-fnho52ip-1226715178383
  11. Thought I'd post in this topic rather than start a new one as my query is reasonably relevant to the conversation, but when installing the Walbro 450LPH pumps does the choice of sock have any influence over the flow? I'm assuming not otherwise they wouldnt have supplied two but I'm wondering whether using the smaller sock would impede the flow at all (pic attached). The smaller sock seems to fit nicely into the bottom of my cradle so would prefer to use that. If it negatively influences flow though will use the larger of the two. Cheers
  12. Almost there thanks mate, just need to buy some submersible fuel hose this weekend and should have it finished up!
  13. How's the tune coming along Ants?
  14. Sorry to hear about your tuning dramas mate, must be very disheartening I hope you manage to get it sorted soon though!
  15. Am upgrading my injectors to larger units so have removed these from my car. Used condition Came out of well looked after car, running BP98 Car only comes out on the odd weekend or track day so they don't do many km's per year Note: There is a slight tear on one of the o-rings, you can see in the pic (third from left, have turned it over for easier viewing). Doubt it'd make any difference, my car was running fine and wasn't leaking. What: 6x Sard / Denso 700cc Injectors off my RB26 R32 GTR. (195500-0830 - photo provided for part number verification) Where: Located in Perth, happy to arrange pickup/drop off for local buyers or postage for interstate (buyer pays postage). Price: $400 (+ postage if applicable). PM or email is best: [email protected] Cheers James
  16. Looks a bit like a 400R bar http://justjap.com/store/product.php?productid=17422
  17. Yeah, pretty sure they're illegal in WA mate unfortunately. Good work on purchasing the 33, looks clean and I'm sure you'll love it!
  18. Cheers mate, hopefully this weekend I'll have it done!
  19. Sweeeet! Bring on the good times! Thanks again for your help with my fuel pump queries mate, much appreciated!
  20. Hey guys, are these the tuning days that you're doing? I was looking at those for next year - they look pretty good! Is there usually a good turnout?
  21. Your avatar threw me a bit when I first opened the thread - looks very similar to that of the old owner! Car's looking nice though mate, I think I saw your engine on the stand when I was at a certain workshop recently! What's the ETA on having it finished?
  22. My brother bought an oil cooler kit last year from a business trader on this site (not sure if they still advertise, haven't checked). They had an eBay store aswell. We fitted the oil cooler up and couldn't stop a leak at the relocator. Took it to the workshop to see if they could fix it and they said that the fittings were unfortunately just poor quality and needed to be replaced. From there on we went with Speedflow fittings on both his car and mine and they have been faultless.
  23. That answers that then Cheers!
