amazing customer service ??? he neglected to mention to me about drilling out the stock oil restrictor in the block. so the turbo wasnt getting enuff oil and f**ked the seal's. subsequently needing a $400 rebuild that i had to pay..... he even admitted he forgot to tell me about drilling the restrictor out.... yeah thats amazing customer service. he was quick to email you back THATS about it

Our last communication was on the 12/10/2012 which you inquired about a rear housing for a 2nd hand turbocharger we've built for some thing else in 2009. I've never forgotten or admitted "forgetting" on given any information inquired. Even if I did forget initially, I would never mention about a drilling a "oil restrictor in the block" after. I don't recall any communications after that date, but let me know if you want to get it repaired.

I made majority of RB customers buying the oil line with the turbocharger. Which the speed flow fitting that comes with the oil line replaces the restrictive benjo bolt that is on top of the turbocharger. There is no oil restrictor on the actual engine block or the benjo bolt goes on to the engine block.

Not sure but it will be in town soon. Looks pretty tidy

Is this car in Townsville at the moment because I am almost positive I drove past one last night as I'm up here. Saw GTR badge at front and had LED 34 tails. Was also black.

i think i saw the same car the other day in Townsville as i did that night, black R34 GTR VSPEC II with gold varrstoen's (had no volk sticker so doubt genuine).

looked mint.

All the excitement is building up, not long now till Brisbane Jamboree. We are really looking forward to this years event, apparently there some other competitors coming to specifically to stop us from getting the next world record, I won't name names but I am looking forward to some good competition. The engine has just gone though another lot of upgrades and the chassis has had more weight taken out. Not a great deal of weight but every kilo counts. Engine HP has been increased a great deal and the clutch specially modified by Doug at NPC to give us more bite in the top end to get the MPH up. Our top end MPH is where we are losing ground need more grunt and the clutch was slipping up top costing us big time. If the gearbox can handle the punishment we are estimating a very low 8 sec pass and possibly a 7sec pass on the street radial tyres. This is what we are hoping for ....fingers crossed drag racing can be brutal. Would love to share the new upgrades list but with all these other fast GTR's coming out of the wood work getting closer to our time's, it's time to keep something's to ourselves ;) .

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
