The old days have truly gone. Where is the talk about double pumpers, Mallory twin point dizzys, double hump fuellys, Roller rockers etc etc.

The conversations on the weekend went along the lines of. Yeah its fully sic with an A4RT1 hooked up to an RG437T overriding a series 2 phase inhibited L61J With twin over head shaved XV67s mounted to a straight through maxed out B42 pushin XR53s @ 12000rpm on 57lb boost. Its just riciulous when the OLS kicks in at half boost and then pulls strong right through to max where the 451GRX! limits the blowback through the cardio mac 2 gizmo.

WTF

Listening to a high performance conversation these days is like eating alphabet soup. How bout a thesaurus for old farts. Post up the letters safc11 for eg and tell us what it stands for. :(

Im with ya on this one Dingo, I'm learning as I go too. :(

The first car I did up was an HQ Holden

I built a full ported, balanced 186 bored out and stroked with a yella terra head, roller rockers twin point dizzy, triple delorto carbs ( Spelling ) etc. Then removed this engine a dropped it into an LJ 2 Door Torana it was absolutely insane. I went thru alot of M21 Gearboxes and Banjo Diffs with that engine. Could never afford a top loader and 9'inch Diff when on $215 a week apprentice wages back in 1989.

Ahhh to be young and stupid again :(

    • Yeah, hard to find and a pain in the ass to change with the transverse engine. I’ve worked on a GTiR before and it’s not a job I’d ever want to do again. theres a company in South Africa that makes RS3 gearbox adaptors for the AWD SR20 including gearbox mounts, so I could modernise it and go a dual clutch with paddles. For now tho, it ticks all the boxes. Super cheap, can throw the kids and their junk in the back, and SR20 that I can turbo cheaply, a CVT that’s not a dog’s breakfast like the V35, and has 80% interchangeable parts with stuff I can source from the wreckers cheaply…. But it’s still unique. I love the wagon back of the Autech version. It’s cheap enough that I can buy another stock manual FWD Primera with SR20VE, swap the gearbox to the N15 pulsar short gear ratio box, swap out the brakes to the R32 ones I pulled off my 32, register it on club plates and take it racing. $1300 shipping from NZ. Heaps of parts and aftermarket builders for transverse SR20’s in NZ.
    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢
