    Rips has built an AWD powerglide. I don't know if he will share the info with but you could try. He would probably sell you a built up unit though.

    No that's not a reason to drop in some cams (because you can). You need to have a reason in that you know what effect they will have and that its an effect that you want.

    Your car will explode in a ball of fire. (Maybe not) but if you have a stock ECU your engine will run optimally with the BOV return plumbed back in to the intake. Otherwise the air measured by the MAF will not be the same amount as what finally reaches the plenum. If the BOV is simply blocked off this will not happen but then you may as well not have a BOV,

    Gidday - how about some pics of your Stagea? Post in the "Wagoneers" section where under the DIY section you will find at least two aerticles on what you need and how to convert your car to manual. Good luck!

    Would help to say where you live and what you need to know - someone may have an idea to solve your problem another way.

    Builders of dedicated track cars will sometimes incorporate bias adjusters. As you have observed the transfer of weight to the front under braking means that there is no point whatsoever in having the same size brakes at the rear as at the front.

    NIce car! I want...

    Any cooler regardless of brand that doesn't have a heat exchanger like the stock one has the potential to overcool the oil if it doesn't have a thermostat. Some people just cover the cooler in Winter. On the other hand any car can be driven away from cold (I never idle cars for any length of time if I can help it) so long as you don't cane them before they get up to optimum operating temperature. Driving them is the quickest way to achieve this.

    For my own car which had a slight miss at high revs at about 320 AWKW or 425hp on the dyno with new OEM coils and BCPR7ES my (Japanese ex Nissan) tuner suggested PFR7G which fixed the miss.

    How about some pics?

    Gidday - post up some pics - but in the Stagea section (labelled "wagoneers" ) where you will find a wealth of info...

    As in wearing at about the same rate F&R

    You have the colours you need (plus some wires you don't need) You have the red, orange,green and I am pretty sure that although you don't have a blue the yellow serves the same function (goes to ignition). The twin wire loom goes to the solenoid (Mac valve) either way round.

    Your photo does not show exactly what you have but this PDF should help you. It shows the colour codes for you main plug. Do you have the second plug that goes to the Mac Valve? The wires to the Mac valve can go either way round - its just a solenoid. http://photos.imageevent.com/kadepunk/hybridinstallationguides/HDi SBC-D.pdf

    I put 330mm 8 pot D2s on the front and the non Brembo GTR rears (with Znoelli SP500 550deg pads) on the Stagea. Maybe it was the weight of the RB30 but the stock front pads chewed out in no time. When I changed to Pagid on the front they lasted 3x as long but the rears still pretty much kept in sync. The M/C is BM57 and the car always seemed to pull up straight at the track.

    I wrote down a recommendation from Trent @ Status: NGK Iridium BKR8Eix @ 0.55mm although they are not cheap: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NGK-IRIDIUM-IX-Spark-Plug-BKR8EIX-X-6-PLUG-/142209111204?hash=item211c52d4a4:m:m69MawV220S1OFuGKgUrZOQ cheaper from the US: http://www.ebay.com/itm/6-pc-6-x-NGK-Iridium-IX-Plug-Spark-Plugs-2668-BKR8EIX-2668-BKR8EIX-Tune-Up-ov-/291529328862?hash=item43e08088de:g:BWMAAOSwgQ9VveiV&vxp=mtr

    For $47k you can have this one...complete with Reinik powered R33 GTR http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=1287293912

    Very tidy! Stock engine? Auto? What kind of wheels are they?
  19. KiwiRS4T
    How bad is it? There is often a discernible blip as the VCT changes over.
  20. KiwiRS4T
    Yes but do you still have your old gearbox? If the speedo drive from that fits in your box it may help. Jaycar do a speedo corrector (or at least they used to).
  21. KiwiRS4T
    I guess the missing element is the offset??
  22. KiwiRS4T
    Not the slightest.
  23. KiwiRS4T
    120 is a cause for concern. RBs will go well on 5 cylinders but who knows for how long... Maybe repeat the compression test with a warm engine and pump a little oil in the dodgy cylinder to confirm that it is the piston/rings rather than the valves. Yes reduce the boost back to stock and start saving for a new engine!

    The arty bit is the reflection on the rear left of the front car...

    Gidday! Introduce yourself to the Stagea section (called wagoneers or suchlike)...
