    Seems to be the Hankook Soft that goes off quickly with heat cycles. The Z214 Medium cycles very well, if Nev's experience with them over a couple of years is anything to go by.

    FWIW, Nankangs ran 60.2 at Lakeside yesterday. That's 1.1sec faster than NT01 and less than 4 tenths slower than the Hankook Soft PB. Not bad for cheap rubbish in a medium compound vs probably the fastest semi available. Hell, they make NT01s look expensive! 

    Not alot of options for anything wider than a 255 in 17" wheels

    Was considering some Nitto 275 NT01 all around, but the Nankang AR1 255 all around might be a better option harry? Can anyone recommend a seller for the Nankang AR1 in Brisbane? or interstate even?

  2. No oil pressure after car sits for a long time

    So I have a RB25 neo engine that sat and didn't run for years. First time I tried to turn it over I could not get the oil pressure light to turn off after cranking it for along time repeatedly with the crank angle sensor unplugged. The oil pressure switch turned out to be working fine after putting an oil pressure gauge on it while trying to crank the engine and there was absolutely zero oil pressure.  Managed to get a hold of an accumsump and push oil through the engine which ended up solving the problem.The engine now has pressure, took the accusump off cranks and runs fine with oil pressure.

    Ran and drove the car for a few weeks no problems than it sat again for a few months and now back to no oil pressure while cranking the engine with the cas off.

    Has anyone heard of this problem before? Seems like there has to be some leak between the pump the pick up. I also have quite alot of oil pressure on idle from what I could remember 80 - 90 psi.

    Heights are way off as I have just changed around suspension and arms around, just wanted to get an idea of total weight.

    RB25 Neo engine, standard panels and glass. No AC/heater/radio. Tried to remove as many non essential, brackets, bolts/nuts, wiring as possible.

    With 1/3 tank of fuel, gutted interior except for roof lining,dash, center console, door cards, drivers seat (bride zeta 3) and power windows. Small lithium battery behind passenger.

    R33 Gtst brakes front and rear, all of the suspension is after market,

    17X9.5 gram heavies with 255s all round.

  4. I agree Justin that a class one looks too tall, but I meant to try and fit another, smaller powersteering pump under there.

    Going to try and get a hold of a toyota mr-s power steering pump. The astra pumps look abit too big/heavy for my liking plus I dont want to dirty my car with an opel part.

    I just weighed a gtr pump with the pulley, belt, bracket and bolts and they come in at 4kgs.  Will weigh the lines and resevior and lines when I pull it off.

  5. Thought I'd start a thread for the s-chassis folk.

    Digital hanging scales are are my favourite toy at the moment, trying to get as much weight as possible out of my 180sx and think I can get it close to 1100kgs with stock panels and glass windows with an RB25. Already know trying to corner balance the is going to be alot of fun and I'll do a more detailed write up soon.

  6. Acrula, which pump do you think is heavier the nissan one or the A-class? what car do you have? any pictures of where you mounted it?

    I've weighed an rb26 pump and I think it was 2kgs, just the pump no belt, bracket or lines but I will double check.

    I'm thinking of sneaking one in under the starter motor, even if it weight is close to the same, having it lower and further back would be nice.

    Think I might head down to a wrecker and ask them if I can look at and weigh every type of electric pump they have.

    Just received a nice bit of CNC'd aluminium to hold the Coils in place. From www.billet.net.au

     

    How did you go with these coils?

    Anyone else tried the Denso CBR cdi coils, I see that billet.net.au are selling M&W kits using the denso coils.
