damn, just had to re tie the boat up, this wind is making it swing hard core was bending down tie in back up, and getting soaked by the waves crashing into the pontoon :)

Dan how much for a .82 housing and how much could i get if i sold my 1.15 housing.

I'm pretty sure they will exchange the housings plus cash their way. Might cost you $150

I can check for you tomorrow if you like. How many K's on the 1.15 housing?

And is it a 1.15 or a 1.06?

Sounds good mate :) , if thats the case order one in for me thanks.

On my receipts it says 1.15A/R. I think its done about 20 to 25000 km.

Finished modifying the std rb25 fuel rail. Converted it to twin feed. See, thats how you save money on buying a billet ally rail and then have to change to top feed injectors. Keep the same injectors and get a flash big hp supporting rail without having to buy it! Probably cost $30 bux in fittings as they were s/s speedflow. 30mins in labour time, drill and weld on fittings.

The photos were before i cut the std feed off and welded it over. But it shows the three -6 fittings i tigged on. Rail feeds have gone from 6mm to 8mm now. Should increase flow abit.

yeh your right..it does fully look home job like...but we didnt want to change injectors...new rail say 200bux a set of top feeds around same cc probably another 600-800bux

Or $30bux for the fittings. I cant charge the race car a labour fee either...so yeh. I think my old man wants it to look full backyard style...give off the homeless look. so when we win it doesnt look like were pro in anyway lol.

the extremely loud gearbox whine and the mega brakes sorta give away that look :)

ok i take my comments back now :) ur allright mate.. i personally would have taken the easy route and gotten a billet.

Mickey T's arrived and clear the guards. WHOOOOT! :)

what size rims and offset.. ur not using GTST are u?

i can assure you if we hadnt already gotten a set of 850cc sards then we would have gotten a billet top feed rail and some descent top feed injectors.

What rules stipulate that you cant be a backyarder if you have a dogbox and alcons?

Oh, heard that autronic have now come out plug n play for rb25 and rb26 with some sweet built in thingys. Like you dont need the cdi apparently as its got something similiar built in....dont know if you still need the trigger disk or not though. I could be wrong, but these are things ive just heard.

    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
    • OK, now we are ready to get started. You need to remove the air boxes on each side for clearance. The cover is straightforward, undo the clips on the top and lift the front cover out of the rest of the housing. If it is tight you can remove the air filters first. The rear section of the airbox is trickier. On each side you need to remove the Air flow meter wiring which is held to the airbox with a clip; you need to get behind the clip on 2 sides if you want to remove it without breaking it - unclip the harder side and pull on the clip with medium force, then unclip the easier side and it should pop out The airbox is held onto the intake hose with a spring clamp; you need to get a flat bladed screwdriver behind the spring on both sides and pop them outwards. When you have got them in the right unclipped place they will stay there and the airbox slips out pretty freely. Put a rag in the intake to prevent anything getting dropped in there, and also to prevent you seeing that the turbo seal is leaking oil (as they do). Then. The top of the radiator is held by a steel plate, it is secured by 2x10mm and 2x12mm headed bolts . Remove them and remove the plate Also grab the bushings that hold the radiator to the plate on each side so they are not lost!
    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
