R32 Gtr Long Term Love, Now Project
r32-25t replied to r32-25t's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
Looks like an improvement over the stock one but I like having the main trigger off the crank itself to eliminate the belt slack -

No idea to be honest, everything I’ve bought from frenchys has come through hi octane racing -

Need to remember this is a stock engine with a factory head gasket and some head studs thrown in, I have no idea what the limit is going to be and it’s always in the back of my mind. -

When I pulled the exhaust off there was beads of water all through it and then when i started the car to check for leaks it blew water out the back of the turbo. But turned out to be excessive condensation -

So had a bit of a scare and thought the head gasket might have let go and I just hadn’t noticed. Finally sealed up the open ports on the cooling system and pulled the plugs out and pressure tested the cooling system. turned out to be a false alarm and everything is good to go, have ordered the mufflers for it and should have them in the coming days also ordered a few non engine related bits -
For Liverpool jem would be the closest

Gave the bay a quick degrease and clean and moved the wiring out into the guard to help protect it from the heat I’m going to strip the harness and move the abs plug back into the bay and completely remove the wires that are no long being used (air flow meters and etc)and then after fitting and removing the manifold and turbo countless times getting the oil feed and drain hoses to a point where I was finally happy it’s all sitting in there and ready to start still a few things to button up before I can send it for the custom work but hopefully not to far away ? -

tacked the gates on to make sure they clear everything and roofed the manifold again to have them completely welded blocked of the rear turbo drain and the water gallery -
Best thing I ever did was go flex, I had a faulty fuel gauge and ran out of fuel and because of the flex tune i was able to stick some 98 in it and drive home
