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:

    • That's not a transistor --- it's marked ZD1 which makes it a zener diode. As to what the breakdown voltage is, not enough there to divine.
    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.
    • It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

    • South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).
