Are you still gettng a decompression gasket? I wouldn't bother. Grepin's getting well over 300rwkw with standard compression and pistons.

shit 300rwkw!!!!

no headgasket for now as the labour to install it is more than the cost of the gasket

well, i just had a talk to my tuner and he told me i should be maybe to make 300rwhp @ about 1.2barish :

how much power are u guys making?

You sould go way past 300rwhp!!!

also don't get too down if it doesn;t make the power as every freakin dyno in this country reads different.

im not too worry about the power, as i really only want 300 to 330rwhp but im just starting to get worry that my engine may die :

i guess i just got to wait and see

You're probably looking at around 260-270rwkw @17psi with that setup and good tune, a bit worried about your chinacopy FMIC :D

And this should be fine on stock internals if you use 98ron fuel and keep oil nice and clean :rofl:

BTW, what fuel pump will you be using?

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
