  1. True, BUT, It did improve out of sight with the loss of the Power FC (AFM's) and the duel entry cooler. It's ALOT better now... Well was.
  2. Someone sticky the answer. Nismo twin plate coppermix. For the extra $100 get the C spec. Order, install and enjoy.
  3. 5 day flat week we are sitting at about $1200 in the hand about to go through an EBA (pay negotiations). Haven't done a Saturday for a year now (go economy, yay) but an 8 hour Saturday is worth about $600 before tax. Obviously not talking about 1 man in a van/domestic crap here.
  4. Before or after tax? Any 'normal tradie' working for a decent company almost clears that for a 5 day week.
  5. But what a absolute prick of a job it is. That standard one is no a problem, but with the Nismo you have to hold the plenum/gasket/throttles/gasket on the up together and screw the bolts into the 'balance tube' on cylinders 5 and 6. This is because it fouls on the brake master. I would rather put a fire out on my face with a fork then do that job again! Having said that, it can be done!
  6. Well hopefullt this does it. You can't have any more black lines in your bay. It will look like a spiders web. Have you got your latest graph handy? Throw it up if you could be bothered!
  7. Next time your scared... don't come near me
  8. Ian. No Vcam yet but I put the Exhaust cam in that HKS and the guy that built the head recommended IF i decide to go that way later on. Actually even without Vcam Hiroyuki recommended the 264's anyway. I will be getting his 'recomended' cam settings and go from there. I'm hoping the idle will be nice and smooth, not a grumpy prick like it was with the 270's.
  9. 400, well 402 but for an extra 5 psi (30 psi) it only made it 414. Now in a step back in turbo size with a twin 3 inch exhaust it was sitting at 426 with 8 psi less. Only changes were exhaust, dumps and smaller turbos. Oh and even back to factory airbox!! Air has to get in AND out! Would have loved to have seen a back to back with just the exhaust change. How much of a restriction will a 2.5 inch hole will be on this car is anyone's guess. Maybe drop the 'diff back' once it's all done and do another run. That will give you the answer and only take a few minutes.
  10. No problem. When I get a photo of them .
  11. . Nah mate. HKS ported me a set. I learnt the hard way with stainless junk!
  12. Oh I'll doubt that. By the time I get it, engine in, box in, tune it and all the rest of the crap. Doubt it.
  13. When is Texi? Possibly. Need somewhere to 'shake it down'
  14. Pics fresh in from the land of the rising sun. A few pics of the head. The 'marks' on the face of the head is just sticky gunk from it being packed up. A little bit of petrol and it will be sweet. New 87 mm Tomei pistons with Ti top ring and Valve relief so I can run Vcam in the future if i want to be a dickhead. HKS Step 2 valve springs. JUN Ti retainers Some pretty Tomei stickers Parts missing are the exhaust manifolds which are matched to the head and I sent a manifold to turbine housing gasket to japan to be matched up. Cams are missing I also had a 'balance tube' port matched up. Parts will come in dribs and drabs to not get anally bashed by customs!!! Block and rods were taken down to the engine builder on Friday. When the pistons arrive the crank and the pistons will be taken down. Head will be in the country on the 12th of May.
  15. Well that was easy. Sold guys. No more PM's
  16. Hi mate. Umm I bought them about 3 years ago from a guy in Melbourne, so no not really. I've done maybe 12,000 kms on them. No knocks and no leaks. I'd still have them in the car if I didn't buy my R Tunes.

How they sat with 19’s. NOTE: THESE DO NOT COME WITH THE TOPS. YOU WILL NEED TO USE YOUR OWN.
  18. Not when you factor in $600 ish Nismo AFM's ontop of your 7-800 for a second hand Power FC. It's really a no brainer. Yes the FC will do the job but the higher end ECU's like a Autornic SM4, Link/Vipec will do it much better.
  19. Twin 3 inch from dumps back.
  20. I bought one 3 years ago but never fitted it. Feedback? PM if you can.
  21. Standard rear housings are .64 man. Gav made 500 through them, if youre only after 450 why go to the added expense? Either way, results will be interesting
  22. Search that in the forced induction section on SAU. Some very informative posts that will explain all
  23. It's a very scary sight. Better not to look at it and pretend it isn't there!
  24. Yep. Search 'new RB parts with results'. It's a write up of what the solution is and performed on my own car. It's not the ONLY option but it's off the shelf.
