  1. I wouldnt say epic haha. Nur33's 32 build is epic. Just racking up klms on engine and setup ironing out any issues that pop up. Been really good so fae. Couple oil leaks which were easy fixed. Did have one unforeseen water leak with a reused part which was pain to fix. Nothing a few beers couldnt handle. Will get more videos once a tune in done so can really push it. Looking good for entry in powerplay at QR in febuary though.
  2. how much you willing to pay i know of one with hand controller and z32 afm coming up for sale this week. PM me
  3. i am flexible on price just added price so dont get offers of 100 bucks
  4. haha awww christian feeling a little bit deflated today are we. since when have 35r been a responce setup. Never raced with 350kws
  5. Its a KAI version. SPL is a little too big thats for the dyno queens who just want big numbers. Thankfully the 6 speed gearing helps it too not fall off boost between shifts Videos dont really do the sound justice need a high quality mic to pick it up. Sounds strong so lets hope it makes the numbers to back it up
  6. gate cracks around 5400 full boost by 5700. Its lazy atm due to a average tune, lots of fuel and a tame timing map. wont get much better though. Old motor reved to 9980 so wasnt a issue of short powerband thats for sure
  7. i have for sale my 3000klm old 3582r turbo. It has damage to turbine side of turbo. Turbo still works, was working right up until removal (change of engine internals). still feels as good as my new one i just got. Comes with brand new housings and a 1.06 rear housing. Located in Bundaberg 4670 Chasing $700 or best offer. NOTE: does not come with the fittings in the CHRA showen in photos will post at buyers expense. Contact via post on thread, PM photos: damage to rear wheel New vs old (ad is for one on right) front wheel is like brand new the cover that came off the turbo to show it didnt touch the front housing Video of turbo to show it still spins free
  8. Car is loving the new engine. Its so much easier to drive and more user friendly Tim (owner) is saying. Evident by the lack of throttle percentage being used. Had the sniffer in the exhaust aswell. around town cruise its only a little bit rich but under full power its going to 10.1 afrs so heaps of power left in it. Goes in soon to get a tune done. Tidying up engine bay now finish off a few bits and peices, then its ready to go to powerplay hopefully in january. Took it out for a thrashing on the weekend and aside from banging limiter too quickly its awesome fun. photos and videos
  9. Chasing a rb25 crankshaft that is in perfect useable condition with no thrust surface wear.
  10. Car has done just over 100klms on new engine and no real issue . Valvetrain is a little bit noisier then we would of liked but you get the with solid buckets. Car feels strong, wants to go, Alot more noticable torque over the 2.7 stroker engine. dont have to struggle to get the thing going off the line. Now able to cruise up a hill in 6th and not go back a gear. 30 bottom end worth it just in the respect. Exhaust note pretty much the same for those wondering. Thursday afternoon the sniffer is going in to check mixtures and then its fun time...loading some boost into it see what its capable off. PICS: Proof it left the shed First wash in almost 6 months VIDEOS:
  11. Small update After a long month of sitting doing not much after a few hold ups, it has moved 10 meters under its own power, thats as far as it got.....the battery has packed it in and apparently quad plate clutches arent user friendly and wont start again. New battery time. Plan is monday go for a short drive small load then onto hoist for final checks. After all clear its going for a highway run in/street check of tune. Videos will follow. Cannot wait
  12. check the wiring from the cam angle sensor. check its plugged in all the way until the click
  13. still got piston set. its unused still in wrappers?
  14. what has happened most likely is on the door latch itself in the door, where the lock pivot is, the location stud has snapped causing the arm not to swing all the way. i fixed one last week buy lining it all back up and putting a self tapping screw in to hold it. Failing that its time for another latch
  15. As are we, Will be posting up videos, thoughts and results once start doing some kays and dyno time. Very interested in seeing the difference between the old 2.7 9950rpm rev limit stroker engine and 3.0 (rev limit to be worked out on dyno). Made a HUGE step forward tonight. the prototype bracket for mounting clutch master has worked and we have a full clutch working pedal. Now we just need to make a presentable bracket and rod and will post up how we did it for others who encounter the issue.
  16. Small update to keep thread going. Put car in air sussed out clearances and work out few other items. Done one cycle of engine temp so far will do another 1 or 2 and then re torque head back down. Even with 1/2 grout filled block water temp sits nicely doesnt get hot, so promising signs it should cope in traffic. Dump pipe needs 16mm added to it as it sits too low and back. There is a fingers gap everywhere around sump and diff except 1 bolt which in pretty close but engine torques away so it should be right. Pretty happy about that. Sorting out adapting the standard clutch cylinder just without clutch booster, making a plate and brace will post photos if it works out. Only have 90mm between firewall and hypertune so really narrows out options. Spent alot of time measuring various clutch cylinders from makers seeing where it leaves up......not very good position. Getting there slowly dump pipe should be welded up in next 7 days. We want to be able to move it under its own power by sunday. might be a stretch but something to work towards The engine building was the easy bit this is the time we werent looking forward too.
  17. only if you bring your car home and transbrake launch in the street....you wont
  18. dont know how to embed the videos never works for me so if someone the knows can fix that. much appreciated
  19. It is somewhat of a special moment hearing your doings start up and run for first time...brought a tear to our eyes..... or that could of been no exhaust causing that haha. The clutch master cylinder and booster does not fit there is no room so thats our biggest hold up atm. The dump pipe has to be lengthened slightly to suit new turbo location. All intercooler piping lines up except the throttle body pipe. It just needs a new bend in it simple fix. The engine fits in perfectly around the crossmember, Steering rack etc. Easily 1cm+ around everything. We didnt have to space down the Crossmember luckly. The bonnet closes and finger gap above cam backing plate but with the cam cover on it doesnt even get to first latch before hitting so until carbon bonnet gets here just going to run no cover. Had to space up the strut brace (no chance of leaving a thing of beauty in the shed) just for a bit extra engine twist room. Really snappy throttle revs clean even on the previous 2.7 stroker tune. Cannot wait to be able to get some kays on it so see what power its going to make. Hopefully what we are aiming for so it makes the 30 conversion worthwhile. PICS!!!! Awaiting its new home Sits a bit higher then a 26. How the engine bay looks when finished, Few extras to be added but gives idea Bonnet closed completely without cam cover on VIDEOS :D :D
  20. IT RUNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Started to put engine in thursday night and yesterday arvo it was ready to fire Started first go like we only had changed the oil. Will be putting it on hoist to take lots of photos to show clearance around everything for future reference for people wanting to attempt the conversion. More photos and a video will be posted tonight
