turns out one of the braided lines split on the starter motor so oil pissed all over it, then caught fire and melted through clutch line and that kept going lol.. from what we can tell engine is fine, just gotta fix burnt wiring and replace what ever hoses/lines need replacing . hopefully done before domain HC!

Give me a yell if you need anything cobber, my old engine is still 99% complete so can rob it for spares :woot:

spotted: BOOST31 GTR being reborn, what a weekend

IT'S ALIVE!!! haha. thanks for the help buddy :woot:

spotted me having a bit of a shit fight with my turbo

i now have a new manifold-turbo gasket, 3 inch dump pipe and none of the rest of the exhaust :worship:

sounds awesome but i'll attach the rest of exhaust tmrw

can't wait to drive it with the new dump :)

Wishing i had have spotted someone breaking into my 32 on sunday and stealing all the audio gear :starwars: luckily they couldn't quite get the car but snipped a few cables under the bonnet and played with the fuses! Little bogans need their hands chopped off!!

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
