Apparently it works alright on the rbs. If it blows the bottom end, sure I can find a 30 bottom end for a case of beer.

My first R32 was a GTS with the manifold, turbo, injectors and 'cooler from a blown GTSt added to the stock motor after I lost my licence and had 3 months to kill.

Try a td06 on 2 litres and then come see me.

Why would I do somthing silly line that

A case of beer. .. and the 5000 dollar build to make it all work!

All the lags.

-5s I beleive.

brand new -5's indeed.

-5s are pretty close to too lazy on a 2.6 for my liking.

Bunta's right. -5 on 2.6ltr is pretty laggy in comparison to -9s (GTSS) or -7s (R34 N1s) and are more suitable for 2.8lt built engine.

But we will see what it delivers first before I start ranting on about how useless they are on the street.

Been there done that! Surge ported 3076 sounded amazing too and kicked hard. .. but the lag was :(

That's why I went 6 gears instead of 5.

And added AVCS (Subaru vtec yo).

And went E85.

And v-mount.

And Twinscroll...

Granted a normal sized turbo from the start probably would have been far easier, but where's the fun in that???

We could do this... Or have the ark running by then and take it down. Hence why I said take it off the road.

We could do this.

You never said what you thought of Adelaide wines...

How.

Does.

She.

Put.

Up.

With.

You?

I wonder the same thing sometimes

I'm getting mine done custom. ;). Only way to be. :)

I want a custom one for the Ark.

agreed. Mine are some hybrid thing based on 2510s and high flowed. They are good but can't recommend them to others as who know what the part numbers are lol

Yeah, I miss my old GTR number 1 which had GT-SS.

I almost put 2510s in it but sold it off 2 weeks before I'd killed 2 turbos after bit of faffing about and in the end a pair of GT-SS went in and was loving life.

Bunta. I purchased a 24 tooth cam disc item number DSM24t to try and mitigate some of the timing jitters when they raise their ugly head in the future.

Where from? To be honest, with your engine being brand new, I do think that is a solution that will work for you, and even if it doesnt at least Sean will know what to look for and be able to tell you if it didn't fix the issue

Yeah, they are pretty much spot on in terms of useable power

Sean seemed rather relieved after I told him that I swapped from PFC to Haltech.

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
