  1. Was having a dig around and given I have brand new bushes sitting there for a stock front swaybar, I'm going to run that at the next track day in early July with basically no other changes, beyond the breather setup and some tyre pressure changes, and see where that gets me. Testing is more important than times at this point, I want a neutral car that's kind on tyres before buying new ones. Plus time improvements through suspension tuning feels more rewarding to me. Buying new tyres is easy and can come later. Car is currently up on stands again to do a quick manual brake bleed and see if that power bleeder did a poor job or if the really light pedal is just a result of too big a booster/master combo.
  2. So what sump did you use and is this RB25 (Stagea) AWD gear or GTR AWD gear? Unbody shots plz
  3. Everything I read tells me 5/16th for the rubber hoses and a touch smaller for the hard lines.
  4. I had a 32R rear swaybar and the car was worse, putting the s14 bar in was an improvement. I have the whiteline on its softest setting, but I'm going to swap it out for a stock s13 bar for the next track day (July 9th) up the air pressures and do nothing else.
  5. @Mitch_Dubya Yeah maybe I won't adjust that seat, I don't need someone else going faster in my car Speaking off the car, plugs and coil packs back in. Removed turbo intake and checked turbo, cannot believe this was a $100 "blown" ball bearing turbo, shit is still fresh. No oil. OK, here's my version eleventy breather setup. Blue is crank case breather setup. Dipstick into can (which allows drain back) Left side sump breather (normally into rocker cover) will go via oil air separator into catch can (also baffled can). Can is under vacuum from Morrosso crankcase evac kit. Yellow is top end breathing. Rockers tee'd together. Into baffled catch can. Atmo breather. Both ends of the engine can breath, nothing plumbed back into intake. See how it goes on the dyno.
  6. Are the RB26 fuel lines 5/16" standard? I popped that fuel filter in last night and the hoses seemed to go on easy compared to the standard filter Tightened up OK and no leaks while idling, but just surprising. .
  7. I will subside to your build thread
  8. I think you'll struggle to make 300rwhp on a GT2560 without some reasonable cams and even then I'm not sure. You could try running it at 20psi+ to get there, but don't expect turbo to live long. I run the same turbo and they are pretty much out of puff by 16-18psi max. Check the comp maps.
  9. Where is it now?
  10. As one of the rare people still using a CA, you should give it all to me. What is this car? daily? track? drift? What do you want to do with this car? What power do you want from this car? What's your budget? If you have a spare bottom end, you could easily get it inspected by an an engine builder to assess condition. Then make a call about whether you can just slap a head gasket on it, all your old shit and go for gold. If it's a track car/you have a decent budget, then you have lots more options (and should do certain things). In stock tune, they do not "just blow up" and crack rings. Mine has done 146ks on a stock bottom end and is still being abused on the track with a mild 200rwkw setup. They are strong motors for the age/design. I did replace a head gasket, but that was due to my dodgy tuning learning adventure. Find the root cause, if it was heat related then you might have a fuel delivery issue leaning it out or an overboost issue leaning it out. Stock ECU? Stock turbo? Lots of questions.
  11. Some of this is also about getting the car nice and neutral and kind on tyres before I buy new rubber.
  12. At what point did it become a restriction? Seen plenty of cars with 400-450rwkw that haven't mentioned needing this.
  13. Thanks, Yeah bit extreme. People making more power than me wit this pump without doing that.
  14. At $95 per spring, is it worth the gamble? $380 for springs plus maybe get 6-700 for these coilovers and I'm on my way to just buying new/better BCs with better springs or a bit more for MCA blue ($50 extra to choose spring rates).
  15. 12 it is. Thoguh my auto elec mate got up me for using "awg" apparently that's yank spec and I should be talking metric instead 0_0
  16. Direct feed from battery in boot (GTR) so short runs from batter to relay, then short run from relay to pump.
  17. I'm not elec savvy enough to know what happens. D Does it cause more resistance in the circuit and stop it drawing the amps it needs or does it just burn through the wiring (but not stop the pump flowing hard). Either way I'll replace it.
  18. Convo with a another tuner shed some more light on ping issue. Shared that with Silvia tuner, see what he says. In chasing an issue on the GT-R It appears I may have used the wrong guage wire for the fuel pumps as the wire is max 15amps and it seems a lot of Walbro's pull up into the 20s when under load. Given the tuner said he say fuel pressure fluctuation, i will re-do it just to be sure. A few pics that popped up from the track day, no action shots
  19. So, I think this may also be a problem also? While removing crap form the car to get into the tank again, I had a light bulb moment and checked the wiring I used for the pump vs the Walbro specs. The roll of wire was bought from Jaycar when questioned what I'd need for a fuel pump etc. As you can see on the specs @ 13.5volts, this pump wants more than the 15amp rating of the wiring. I assume this would mean the pump is not able to draw the current it needs? or does it simply draw the current and slowly burn out the wiring?

  20. I want to go quicker on the same rubber to prove that.. Roll centre adjusters Castor Rods Subframe swap Diff swap Swaybar swap Wasn't all for nothing. That's a lot of $$ and f**king around. I could swap in a bigger turbo, buy new tyres and go faster but it doesn't prove my backyard science about going faster through better suspension geometry.
