Hi MrVspec, if you don't auto clave the parts, am I correct in assuming that you don't do stressed stuff such as prop shafts?

Cheers

PS your parts look very well made... you NEED to get your website up again! :rofl:

PPS can you do an R32gtr with Z-tune style louvres down the middle?

no we dont do prop shafts, only do stuff that can be tested in house before the product is marketed.

yeah the website is taking a long time hey, been onto the boss about it. He tells me it'll be up soon, but yeah who knows maybe a month or two??

the 32gtr with z tune louvres is possible, but you have to make a plug, then the mould then the product this all costs money, and with carbon being hard to get at the moment parts are very very expensive... i am doing my bonnet at the moment for my GTR all custom with vents and stuff when i'm finished i'll post up some pics.....

Hi Noy, from what i remember you guys do vac bag ur lay-ups?? If this is the case, dunno if u do know or not but there is a new pre preg out that is resin impregnated from one side and dry on the other, Good to use if u do not have an autoclave. Just vac bag and chuck into an oven.. Resin system is a VTM type so cure temps can be anything from 60-110 degree C.

I saw a sample part made from it today and the finish was really good (mold did not have a gel coat). If u do not know about it then get onto the usual suspects...(Lavender/advanced comp). Could be usefull for the stuff that you guys make n would be shit loads easier to lay up as comapred to a wet lay up. cheers.

Hey SK, I rang around on Monday all around australia, and nobady has any pre made, I then rang around to get some made and everywhere in sydney is short on carbon. So i rang the guy on here custom carbon in brissy they are making me up a big panel of it give them a try on 07 38652014.

Gee i'm a bit late at replying but thanks for the plug...

Any updates on this setup yet?

Work is flatout mate bonnet is almost done, woking out placement for the duct, then start working on the airbox plug.. should be in the next few weeks... sorry for keeping ya hanging.. should look sweet though.

dont know if i'm gonna take it to jamboree yet ??? it will definately be done for brisbane auto salon.

I'm putting custom vents in the CF bonnet that duct straight to an enclosed airbox. no more hotair for me

Just a quick one on this:how are you getting around avoiding water ingestion(IE: what happens when it rains...)? If it's something you'd rather keep quiet design wise,then OK;maybe PM me for a 'general' idea?

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
