yeah looks ok, how about u get this job first lol.

and CP's cos they are decent and cheap. dunno about the nitto rods $$ ?? herd good stuff bout nitto thou

for what it's worth, I've found manley rods and JE pistons to suit the 26 (25 wouldnt be hard to get the same for I'd say) for 1250 or so delivered.

and yeah, gotta talk to my mate about it more. hopefully can pull strings n get out there ;)

I did contract work for a performance shop for a while here tuning imports for them. MOst notable was a RX7 rotor that wanted to jump off the dyno. Had a GT3540 strapped to it, running 20psi. But I got busy doing other things like rebuilding my own engine, and getting my car back on the road.

An RX7 wanting to "jump off" the dyno with a 3540?

LOL. Ever thought that MAYBE the car wasnt strapped down properly? Because if it truly wanted to jump, then shit, Kent Battles XR6T ute must launch off the dyno given it churns 1000rwhp.

There is a difference between strapped down properly and trying to jump and not strapped n coming onto boost.:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

When you come down, Force Fed, we got a spare room at ours if you want to crash. Dysonest is usually there too, haha. Speaking of which, Pub Thursday night, Dysonest?

Didnt see this until now, Churrs. May take you up on that. No doubt I'll see you when you're up here eh? And besides 2 33's in the drive would probably make most people moist.

2 R33's in the marina? :P

I'm thinking about CP pistons and spool rods. But I'm not going for big numbers

I had CP's in my GTiR motor with eagle rods.

Good rods, will never use CP's again though personally...

Mainly because of the ring gaps they specify to use......

Also

HOLY CRAP I'm in love. 248522_10150201384734850_218306534849_6932770_12124_n1.jpg

And yes, we will be moored in the marina :ninja: :ninja: :ninja: :ninja:

yeah herd the rings are a shit with CP... gotta bed them within a few minutes of start up or some shit

either get cp's n see how ya go or cp's with different rings :/

This shitty f**ken server at work is about as powerful as a scooter.

keeps locking up on me when i'm on SAU (LOL)

Yeah, Will from JHH told us that in person when we were down for gods kitchen and went to see him with Nick. Basically a drag ring or some shit.

Whatever hey, you've already proven that you're just a smart mouthed dickhead, right from your first post, with no constructive input.

And no I don't know everything, but I help out where I Can, inntead of being a smart mouthed wanker, that thinks he's funny.

There is a difference - Especially when the car weighs around 800kgs (half the weight) NOS is involved, and is making around 800rwhp.

And don't you worry, it was strapped down well. It was coming on VERY hard which was the issue.

HAve you looked at the 3.4l stroker kit? I know its a little bit more, but its good value if you can stretch a grand or two more.

By the time you by rods, pistons, rings, rod bolts and bearinigs, and balance you're around $3k - $3.5k

3.4L stroker has a new crank, rods, pistons, bolts, bearings and rings and is $5k. I think it is already balanced.

WHen you think about it, $1500 really isn't that much more for a torque monster. Plus you wouldn't have many lag issues.

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
