i think thats about it, all the work was done by steve and the guys at top racing, who did an awsome job and were very helpfull (as i dont know to much about engines) and if there was a problem i was called straight away.... i only got it back monday and only lastnight finished my set km's to run it in, while running it in the rev limiter was set at 4000rpm, so shes goin back in there hopefully this week for the final tune, and i'll let ya know what numbers we get out of her,... a new diff and gearbox is on the save list next to we can go a bit harder maybe, but im not a tuner so i dont know ahhaha..

john also painted the engine and timing covers for me in an awsome white and purple pearl, some pics belove

cheers guys

pistons can be had for around 1400

rods a little more

cams are like 1k a set , gears around 400 bucks

see where im heading... add the sum of the parts together, then add labour, you might get a price without having to ask

We cant get boost under 20psi in the upper rev range as the gate is to small, We told Phill it maybe.it made 475rwhp gaining fast still when i backed off at just over 7000rpm as lowish 400 is what we want for now.

Boost stayed at 1 bar till about 5500rpm then would rise to 20@7000 .

    • You could try some less aggressive pads on the rear. I found (a long time ago when all my brakes were stock 32) that using the same (Bendix Ultimate) pads at both ends made the rear bias excessive. I strongly suspect that the stock Nissan pads probably use a different material, but aftermarket pads will usually be the same material regardless of what pad they are put onto. That bias situation did get better when I put R33 calipers on the front AND used the same pads - just transferred them from old to new calipers. So you should feel the difference with the change you're making. But certainly do not forget the option to change the rear pads down a grade or two.
    • Ha ha, sorry dose, I wasn't meaning to argue the point on "it'll do f**k all". I was only shining a bit of a light in the flawed logic you used with it mate.   I 100% agree that there is zero point changing stock manifold with a stock turbo, unless the manifold is f**ked. And only reason I'd ponder aftermarket manifold on a stock turbo would be that I'm too scared too look at the potential ludicrous prices people are asking for a stock manifold! Ha ha ha
    • Shhh... Muricans don't understand the idea of metric so can't find half the stuff we have for modifying JDM cars 😛
    • That may or may not be me that replied 😅
    • Your response is extremely similar to what someone on the Haltech tuning tips Facebook page answered me. I take it you're also on there haha. Dyno is booked for June 27th and that's exactly what I'll be doing. I also realized I never setup a pulse width adder table so I went and did that last night. Made a fair bit of fueling difference in low load areas.  I sorted out my power steering belt woes. It was an alignment issue and it has now survived multiple instances of abuse that would have killed it prior. I also changed my fuel pump hose. The hose I replaced looks nothing like the legit gates hose I received. Real hose is actually 5/16" and is labelled properly. Amazon refunded me but has been giving me grief about my nasty review I'm trying to leave... I keep having to modify it for acceptance. I want to make sure the point gets across to others.  Last issue I want to deal with soon is the slight vibration I get in my steering wheel with my GKTech Spacers in front. My annoyance has grown and I'm at a point where I want it resolved. I've tried everything I can come up with like clean spacers thoroughly, tighten in star pattern, retorque, have wheels rebalanced 4-5x with a variety of machines (2x with a Hunter elite). I've also taken the spacers off and remounted multiple times just in case.  I'm starting to think my GKtech spacers are at fault. I'll pop a wheel off and toss a dial indicator on tomorrow to verify runout and parallelism.
