  1. Definitely go a twin plate copper mix. Drives like factory, factory feel to the pedal. Clamp force is like grandma holding her handbag in Redfern, and they’re quieter than you think. Mine will be up for sale soon, but could do with a freshen up seeing as it’s close to 6 years old with a fair few track days/drag nights up its sleeve. She won’t suit my new built gearbox 🙃
  2. I’m switching from a nismo comp spec to 9 inch dcs sintered twin plate shortly. Planning on going 26/30 later in the new year pushing well over 500kw. The nismo has been great. Is holding 360kw at all 4 well and has been in for the last 4 years on the same power. The nismo is perfect for the street in a standard car as it feels like stock. Only down fall is the nismo is crap for drag racing. I’ve done about 25 passes on sticky tyres and it’s starting to get really worn out and very high take up point. Last drag meet I did, slipped it a bit too hard getting used to the new surface at the creek and it got too hot and couldn’t change gears until it cooled down, and also cost me a starter motor as it locked up from all the material. Plus the novelty of a lightweight flywheel is wearing off too
  3. I don’t know about maxxecu but you can buy or make a mounting bracket for the haltech elites that mounts under the glovebox. From what I can tell the maxxecu and elite seem to be similar is size as far as google images go. Easy enough to make a bracket to suit out of some aluminium sheet
  4. Test for 12v at the main switch plug, test for 12v at the reg motor plug when pressing the window switch with a multimeter, if ok, put power to the window reg. My bet is the window reg motor or bad main switch 🙂
  5. Wtb r32 rear view mirror asap
  6. Thanks man, that is actually my plan B. Was hoping someone might know someone and I’ll buy direct. Otherwise if there is interest I’ll get a dozen made up from a fabbie and move them on. Every gtr I’ve worked on has atleast some signs if not major leakage from the top of the box so I’m sure people will be in need of a solution 🙂
  7. Has anyone found an Australian company (or someone) that remakes these unicorn gearbox baffle plates at all? It goes into the top of the transfer case or gearbox to stop oil flicking out of the gearbox. I’m on my third shifter boot in 8 years and it’s starting to get really annoying, no idea why they were left out and sold as an option from nismo which is now discontinued. I have found a few companies overseas that sell them but I’d rather keep my money in the country and not have to wait months for something so small in the snail post. I’ve been doing the hose clamp on shifter boot since the first replacement boot and it’s now getting rediculous. Surely someone has some info on either a plate or a 3D printed replacement in aus 😀
  8. Go back to basics man. Compression test. A constant reading is good, a 30 psi or more difference between adjacent cylinders is bad. Disconnect one injector at a time and reconnect until you find the bad cylinder. A good cylinder will run rougher with the injector disconnected. The bad cylinder will do nothing with injector disconnected. Then check for spark. Use a gap tester or remove a spark plug on each cylinder. Don’t forget to remove the fuel pump fuse if you pull the plugs to test. if all that checks out ok, check for vacuum leaks and injector wiring. if you’ve pressure washed it you will probably have water somewhere simple, usually in the dizzy cap or spark plug tubes 🙂
  9. Hey guys I’m selling 4 r35 coils in great condition. Surplus to my needs as I’m going a different direction with a build im working on. Great option for sr20s and RBI’s or buy another 2 and ditch that 25 year old set of coils and igniter on the RB. Happy to post. $300 plus post for you guys, have them listed on gummie too but for more because time wasters. Generic photo because I’m lazy 🙂 located central coast nsw
  10. Yes the first pic shows which wires to bridge to make high beams come on with the low beams without dropping the lows out (just like normal cars). Would recommend bridging the wires at the back of the plug (under the steering wheel) with heat shrink rather than the paper clip trick shown in the picture I provided
  11. It’s all in the wiring from factory. They were designed to dip the low beams off with high beams on. Just bridge some wires under the steering wheel and off you go. Best to replace the headlight switch and add 2 relays to divert the current away from the contacts in the switch and directly to the headlights (hard wired to battery and use the original headlight positive wire as the relay trigger) much better light as they will get a full 12-14 volts and and less stress on the switch contacts as there is no massive current draw
  12. Honestly just do it all Teflon hose the first time. If you plan on using e85 it will deteriorate the rubber hoses and you’ll forever be changing them. Unless they are e85 rated hose, you will have problems. Plus braid is much neater. reason for twin feed rail is the rail and reg I bought came with -6 fittings and I didn’t want to stuff around with adaptors trying to make everything -8. No real gain if single -8 entry, twin -6, etc. Just looks tidy
  13. Was originally on straight e85 and had to switch back to 98 for the base map, I did over 10k of upgrades including ecu when I did the fuel system. Being a plastic tank in the gtrs it was a lot easier to clean and mop up the water than a steel tank. Probably wouldn’t recommend it with a steel tank but was fine. Being on e85 for so long it had just started to rust the old pump hanger and had a slimey residue on the walls of the tank. I did rinse it with 98 afterwards before going back together but the water was purely to get rid of the e85 residue and gunk
  14. Just did all this on my r32 gtr. I washed the tank out with 98 and water and dried it out completely before starting but went for frenchys -8 baffled twin pump setup, twin walbro 525s (one on main power trigger and the other on a staged trigger from the ecu), Teflon lined -8 braided hose (I think it was 200 series), chrisos billet line holders, a speedflow long series -8 fuel filter with the red filter element (I think is 200 micron), used a y piece connector near the steering rack to go from single -8 to a twin -6 feed straight to the rail, a -6 return from rail to a turbo smart 1200 reg. From the reg I went -8 to another pair of y piece connectors to fit a flex sensor and a custom bracket which bolts in nicely were the hicas solenoid used to be in the engine bay and -8 return back to the tank. And used Bosch 1650 stainless injectors with half sized adaptors to suit. Should support close to 1000 engine hp
  15. Selling some bits from my 32r as I have upgraded. Everything is in good working condition. Located central coast nsw but will post at buyers expense. Power fc r32-r33 gtr With z32 afms and plugs. Comes with hand controller. $450 Rb26 alternator. $80 Rb26 factory oil cooler housing. $80 Rb26 factory fuel rail. $50 Deca 770cc injectors. Need cleaning and new o rings. $50
  16. Has anyone got any Tomei throttle coat that I could use for 5 mins to reseal my itbs? Closer to central coast nsw the better. Need ASAP or is there an alternative to use that will do the same job
  17. I’m not too sure but I have a complete lock barrel and key set out of my r32 gtr
  18. Want to buy, pull type twin plate clutch kit for r32-r33 GTR. Trying my luck before I buy a new one. Tia
  19. Cheers. They’re work emotion xd9 in gunmetal grey. 18x10+18
  20. Same thing has started on mine just recently. Have been topping up fluid and cleaning and drips off regularly. It doesn’t seem to leak quickly at all but I’m replacing it with a new one once I get funds. I read they can be rebuilt too but haven’t found much to back this up
  21. Thanks man. I try to keep it clean. Crazy what good car polishes can do sometimes ☺️
