Update -

Well the engine is in - Finally

We had to do some funky stuff with the plenum / intake - the runners were too long for the S12 (This FJ must have come from a DR - so I still have some Skyline left in me)

So we chopped an inch of the runners and welded back -

Now the throttle body faces the wrong way for the cooler piping so - chopped the end of the plenum and customized it a bit.

Big Front Mount is fitted

New GTIR Radiator with Twin Thermos

Battery Relocated to boot

Nearly ready to start

1 Week away I reckon - the Pig will be on the road !

Why do my projects always take so long ! ??????

It's my usual MO Baron - Buy a car - spend heaps on it - sell it cause I have moved on - over it.

I call it B-Man's charity to the car enthusiast's market......

The Gaz is gonna rip !

yeah I should know that by now. Can you build up a nice GTR or RX7 for me. Cause right now I feel like I'm half way through a b-man myself. got lots of shit here for my GTR but no real enthusiasm to go with it at the moment. :banana: what the hell is the matter with me?!

Sale = something that is to be sold. when one person wants to sell an item, they put it up "for sale"

it then eventually becomed SOLD which is a pastence for sale or sell.

sarcasm works better if you know how to spell

just saying

I don't think that was GTST posting. It was his diseducated twin.

And bman, the only way your kicking our arses is if you let 2rismo drive it. It doesn't count if you sell it before you race it.

Am I the only one that 2rismo hasn't beaten in their own car?

You watch - 2rismo will sell his car just after he finishes it - The best of us do that you know.

The S12 will be a ball tearer - much more fun than the Cosmo.

Might be faster than the V8 too :P

What? Spend $35,000 on an engine, aftermarket parts, and tuning.... all in preparation for trackwork, and then sell the car a month later???

Who the hell would do something like that???? :domokun:

    • So, what did you decide? If these items were going in and out of stock, you could at least order the two in-stock pieces. Also, I'd say the stock bit of airbox isn't that restrictive to your NA motor. To test if it is, fit a vacuum gauge between the airbox and throttle body. At WOT do you measure any vacuum?
    • Hey guys I have a 2001 Nissan stagea vq25det, I don't have any engine lights and not really any issues running but I was curious to see if I could use my obd II scanner to find anything that was hidden and I plugged my scanner in and it just said "Low voltage cannot scan" does anyone know how to fix this or what this could be?
    • Sadly we have something in common, our Skyline's like blowing up electrically 😢
    • So, no videos, but, the FAB9 Elite manifold and 68mm Bosch throttle bodies are in stock, but, not the rear part of the air box The FAB9 rear airbox thingie is made with a 3" intake pipe, to suit the 3" intake pipe size of a 68mm throttle body  When they get some more in stock is currently unknown as I'm waiting for FAB9 to reply with a ETA on resupply, my assumption is they outsource their plastic printing stuff to "china", and with the current "tariff war" going on in 'Merica it could be on hold for an undisclosed time Should I pull the pin on the Intake and throttle body, and wait for the airbox?????, that's what I'm thinking... 1. Would the standard 2.75" OEM intake on the air box really be that much of a restriction compared to the 3" naturally aspirated?????? 2. If I don't get the 3" FAB9 airbox fitted at the same time as the intake and throttle body will it need a retune, when/if it eventually turns up?????? As I'm impulsive, to a fault, decisions will be made within....."what's the time now"???....let's say 12 hours......LOL
