good luck with the build Noddy....I'd love to pull the engine out after 3 years to check it was OK lol.

as for the harnesses, I use rollcage for 2 rear points, factory seatbelt points for rear 2 and have put an eyelet with reinforced plate in the floor at the correct location for points 5 and 6. Factory points are great you know they have been comprehensively engineered and tested.

Well, this can only be my relative uneducated opinion in these matters but, the hone still looks excellent, still need to check for roundness of the holes.

Cams look pretty good. The grind marks are just bedded in on the tips. I will be sending the head off for a birthday next week and let them mic it all up.

If my old machinist was still with us (RIP) he would probably be asking me why on earth I pulled it apart?...... but in more colourful language.

New addition to the little car that could, 34 wheels and Yoki AO50 in 265/35 :) :)

I purchased GTR gaurds and indicators to allow the fitment, but they seem to fit ok without them.

Got a day at Lakeside this sunday for Make a Wish Foundation, so hopefully get to test it out and give some kids a buzz at the same time! :(

Looks the goods Ben, and it's nice you'll be giving some kids something to smile about mate. Good work ;)

Had the part-time track car tuned yesterday, pretty happy with the results for the outlay. Only mod is a turbo back exhaust.

Fark, what with another GTSt that i like the look of more then mine....depressing :D

bah, its just another GTR wannabe ;)

does look good with the 34 wheels. and I'm sure it will go good with the A050s too. I'm gonna have to fork out for a decent set of tyres next year to try and catch up

Yeah, just a APS turbo back exhaust and a reflash by RE Customs here in Vic. The mid range gain is phenomenal, really happy with it.

Just got a harness bar as well, so now I need to pick up a seat rail so I can swap the Recaro between the 180 and STi and it should be a nice occasional track jigger ;)

Not for Targa Roy, Weds will be back on. More sidewall I think will equal better handling bumpy stuff and of course there's a saving of around 3kg per corner with the Weds.

I got the 18's simply to utilise stocks of used A050's for all the circuit stuff I do. Spend a little to save a lot :D

Very nice improvement Dane ;)

Yeah it is Greg, it's an awesome street car. I haven't been in pretty much anything that would keep with it on a tight course, or at least it feels that way! :laugh:

I got it second hand off a guy from the Rex club, but he got it from Meridian. Directly from them is pretty pricey, so I've been looking for a used one for a little while now nd just got lucky.

      Looking for someone with a R34 front bar

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
