  1. Don't buy Bride rails, they are nasty. You can buy mine if you like and I can upgrade...
  2. FYP I think you will find mild steel and ethanol moisture like one another a little too well chemically speaking.
  3. Looks easy enough, PM me if you like.
  4. Personally I would be running e85, unless you want to rebuild the engine soon. Why waste the coin doing everything twice, even the petrol tune is a waste really, as once you run ethanol you won't go back. The stock fuel rail and lines are fine, and the GTR pumps are pretty good other than being old. If it were me though, I would be dropping a 460L Walbro in with the new Xspurt 1650cc eth/meth injectors, cutting out the dropping resistors and tune it as is.
  5. Custom spring rates any manufacturer will do, but custom valving to suit your application, cleaned and fresh high quality oils, pre-setup ready to drop in... Not many companies offering that.
  6. Lol, Ultimates are crap and always squeal. A quick google search would have told you everyone hates them.
  7. Agreed, the Walbro can handle 18V or more, and it will actually lower the current draw of the pump. That will help with leaning on the 460's flow. You would need a Dc to Dc converter willing to push 30amps continuous though.
  8. There are awd RB25's, in quite a few models. 26 over a 25? That's why the prices of 26 long motors is stupidly high, because fanbois think the 26 is the better engine.
  9. Oring? On a wastegate? The shaft has a bronze bush, rubber wouldn't last 2 seconds on my gate.
  10. I am fairly sure it changed to 6 months continuous at some stage. How do you prove a female housemate wasn't in a relationship with you?
  11. I have the injector overhead to run lower base pressure, and that allows the pump to flow much more, especially as the boost climbs. Yes I am running 32-34 psi at the track on a Hypergear highflow atm. JH32 have you tried lowering the pressure a little? If you do your pump will flow a little more. Depends how much more you need out of the fuel system. No way I would be spending $1200 to get a twin intank setup going, the Stagea twin 255 setup cost me nothing. Whatever you do, don't drill and seal the tank lid for thicker wiring, it will definitely leak, I have seen it a few times. Do it properly with an alloy lid spun up on a lathe, then get your own bulkhead fittings and a multi pin sealed plug if you can find one. EFI hardware may have the parts you need.
  12. I would say they would just support two Walbro 460's, if you were mad enough to try and run twin intanks at that kind of insane power. Realistically at much over 400kw you would have to look at upgrading them I think, but there is no reason stock lines shouldn't flow over 600kw of fuel. Keen to try it out? The evo I just built has a 4mm restriction in the return line in-tank, and the reg can still bypass enough fuel to keep the fuel pressure under 30psi at idle using a single 460L.
  13. Even my Varex motor I connected to my fuel pump wiring changes the note of the pump, I would run a dedicated wire. Is the acc wire hooked up to ignition? Does the radio work with the key out?
  14. At least they would be round, unlike yours.
  15. If the M35 Stagea Attessa accumulators are the same I have a few here, much newer than the early GTR ones. I am yet to see accumulator issues on the M35's, only pressure switch failures.
  16. Well they look the goods, I am yet to try them out on the hoist as most cars have shagged rails already. My jacks are around 95mm pad size, and the hoist is 120mm. If you could make some with a slightly larger base it would work better, but these ones while smaller in the base are plenty large enough in the slot length.
  17. Like 460Lph isn't enough? It flows 600 odd kw on petrol. Anything larger will be external. There is plenty of room for a custom twin or triple pump bracket if the lid is replaced.
  18. They are like a piston ring, the spinning shaft is what seals it, and the fact gravity will drain the oil to the lowest point.
  19. I have had 100% ethanol stored for over 10 years in plastic containers, it isn't cloudy at all. You are welcome to come and check it if you like.
  20. Running Bosch ev14 injectors, why go for an 11mm rail at all if you are using 14mm injectors? Personally I would have kept the stock rail on the engine.
  21. Twin 460's? The problem is the tank lid, and getting the thick wiring through it. If only there was a cheap alloy lid available. I have been keen to make a few on the lathe, but the sealed power connectors are my main issue.
  22. Saved $50, but was it worth the headache? Those Chinese will copy anything... Poorly.
  23. If the PCV is faulty it may be causing oil to be sucked into the plenum, but more likely the rear bearing in the turbo is on it's way out. You could probably check it by dropping the PCV hose to the ground temporarily and blocking the plenum fitting to bypass the PCV. I would say 'drop the dump' and check the shaft play on the turbine wheel, but that's quite a job in these. When you say the turbo sounds good, I assume it has that standard M35 turbo whine? What grade oil are you using? Do you know the legitimate K's on the engine?
  24. More likely the throttle is a little dirty, but I wouldn't go cleaning it, I would just do a throttle re-learn. The splutter/hesitation is the fuel mixture being out, I wouldn't be booting it until you have sorted that.
