i want this redline oil for my 32 GTST..

how much do i need, and how much does it cost..

also, where do i get it??

do a search, there are threads relating to redline oil.

please keep this thread to the reverse engaging problem!

can i just remove the reverse lock out instead of fixing it?

premo if you removed it (well more like disabled it) you could end up:

Driving down the F3 in 5th gear, then reach for 4th to overtake someone, miss the gate and engage reverse by mistake... you can guess what happens next

Good idea to think of it, but not a safe option.

Hey guys,

Thanx for the diagram. Went and bought the spring from my local nissan dealer, a whole $2.20. Replaced hte slave cylinder as it was leaking, clutch feels smoother and a tad lighter. I think hte worn slave contributed to the 'stiffness' of getting into reverse, hence the spring (hope it is) being damaged.

Got under the car and couldnt see hte access plate on hte passenger side of the box below the shifter.?? is it in an obvious position? looked behind hte pipes, didnt noticed anything.

Think im just going to find a shop familiar with r154 box and get them to replace the spring for a small cost in labour. Have taken out a few boxes in my time but this one looks to big and heavy lol, specially without access to a hoist.

thnx

Its a drift track car. So I take it I could just remove it ???

luckily I only needed a push twice out at the track.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.

      Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)

      Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.

      Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
