Phil

Im in adelaide is that close enough??????

Really I use tolive in Newcastle and now in Adelaide and NOW moving back to Sydney for work haaaaaaaaaa! Cruzed around newcastle a few years ago in my red r33 gtst with South Australian number plates and only seen 2 skylines i could not wait to get back to adeliade to get my import intake, bla bla any way will bring the GTR to Newcastle to see the folks and bring out for a drive to meet some of you lot as I need to make new friends. Any back to the real question and answer as most know doing up a import is not that hard for bang for bucks .

I reckon Full exhaust and i mean turbo back you lose around 20+ kw if you leave the standard front pipe on and only put a cat back exhaust so do it right if you can and do the whole lot in one hit . Next if you have standard air box leave it as this is the best unless you like the sucking noise just replace the filter to a K&N style this reduces heat and allows good air flow with cleaner air. Front mount dont need to go stupid in size look into it GTR intercoolers are a good option but notthe best and if you look hard enough you will find cheaper. Final is a boost controller i use to have a AVCR i loved it not saying this is the best but it looked good too. with this and a good dyno tune should see your self between 220 and 250rwkw just my thoughts. Want to go nuts on mod your car go to the extream pull the motor out put a RB30 bottom end with your rb25 head power fc which you will need and a 3540 turbo larger injectors bigger fuel rail forged pistons etc list goes on plus will almost need a application for a personal loan. Good luck

well thanks for that nice to know hope to speak you some time but Hope to get more information out of you though :D

Lol. Sorry.:D

Yea the Ceffy's pretty stock atm, with 3" from the turbo back, front mount, Profec B, pod filter.

Dont drive it much these days due to boring company car, that comes with free fuel :)

Big plans though, Power FC, GT30 maby. Anyone got a RB20 block i can have??? :)

Peace.

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • 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.
