Hi, it is a slow process but it looks like it going to cost me about $12,000+ for this motor rebuild + extras.

I had a look at the no.1 piston when they got the motor apart and had cracked ring landing. Scored the bore, hopefully machinable to 20 thou, cause from old motor, or more my over boosting it without tunning. (My bad). Either way it was needing a rebuild in time.

I found I had a nismo single spring button clutch in the car, so just going to reco that. - $800+

The type of pistons that im going to use are called airies/earies something like that. (Forged Pistons)

The turbos that I am looking at are 2830 -5 twins. Can anyone tell me more about them?

The P.F.C I was thinking of using was a WOLF. Anyone using one?

if you search the forced induction section lots of this has been covered

imo the 2860 -5 are great turbos , good mixture of power and response . possibly a little small to take advantage of a full rebuilt but its there for later if you need more

forget the wolf and get a power fc djetro for cheaper and easier to install and tune

Suppose to be capable of over 25 PSI.

I'll do a search on power fc djetro, see what I can find.

Thankyou.

f**k power fc there shit imo

get a wolf v500 do a search on that and u will c how much better they are than d-jetro.

heaps of my mates use wolfs either v4 or v500 there the shit i got one sitting in my room for when i do my turbo upgrade there awesome definately worth the extra cashola

tuning get it done at rank rotary in melbourne dude

lol and how is a powerfc shit?

Sequential Injection, 6 coil drivers, closed loop, factory like drivability/coldstart etc, KNOCK DISPLAY.

Can't go past the PFC for a streeter that may from time to time see inconsistent fuel and thousands of km's *see knock display*.

i dont like the power fc thats my personal opinion of them. i have always been around the wolfs and my mates all use them and i will also be installing mine in due time. (probz closer to when i get my licence back) there alot more expensive but they are the shit and have been compared to motec.

thats my 2c

Opinions mean shit.

Technical specs are everything.

The PowerFC's are up there with the best with regards to basic *non wank wank* specs.

Consider that the Wolf3d isn't all that more expensive when you factor in a decent EBC (of which the wolf comes with standard).

But regardless; that most definitely doesn't make the powerfc *shit*.

The powerfc is a barebones ecu with excellent specs that does an awesome job for a sub 1k price tag.

ignorance is bliss :worship:

+1 for the power FC djetro, if it is a MAP based setup that you want.. if you were willing to keep the afm's then these days i would recomend a proper chip and retune of the stock ecu, cheaper and has a few features over the power fc such as a knock vs ignition retard table, for those times when you get a dose of dodgy fuel and don't notice the knock display ;)

i think you've heard a lot from your mates that you don't really know jack

like "airies/earies" pistons, you got the turbos wrong "2830" then u call WOLF a type of pfc

      I don't know if you can disassemble the thing and put it backwards for different ramp rates. They're both "2 ways" or both "1.5 ways" because well, 2 ways and 1.5 ways are the same 'thing' I do not know for sure, but I believe the 38420-RSS15-B5 is the 1 way, and 38420-RSS20-B5 is the two way. In other words, I predict Nissan considers this: to be a 1.5 way. No idea what actually happens when it arrives/you disassemble it. It would be an excellent question to ask Nismo directly! I somehow doubt you will get an answer though, I feel you would be the first person to document what you encounter when you open the box and the internet would be grateful.

      Well - they have arrived.  And they are easy on the eye to put it mildly... These only have three bolts - but for a start there is a key that fits with vacuum like precision..  And as you can see by my ruler, the interface is large..   I listened to a podcast on HP Academy about Dan (KiwiCNC) and I'm more than comfortable he knows what he is doing. R35 Bearing assembly should arrive later today so can mock that up for a look. Can't wait to get these on and get some brake pressure logging too. IMG_3860.MP4

      I would be very confident that they are the same parts (the 2 different SKUs). It seems very clear that you can drop the cam in the 2-way opening, or in the other opening. If you arrange it in the other opening in the same way that you see any other 1-way diff, ie, with the flat of the cam up against the 1° side of the opening, then it would work as a 1-way. It can only spread the ramps when driving forwards - cannot spread the ramps on overrun. It would then appear obvious that if you put the cam into the opening "backwards", that you would get the angled flats of the cam working onto the "points" of the 1° side of the opening, which would give you ramp spread in both loading directions. I do wonder if the forward direction of the 1.5-way config is equivalent to the forward direction of the 2-way, seeing as the cams are flipped and the angled surfaces on those would need to be the same on each side - AND - clearly when installed in either the 2-way or 1-1ay configuration they are not intended to work exactly the same (the ramp angles on the 2-way are 10° different between forward and backward, and the ramp doesn't exist in the 1-way config). 'twere me, I think I would rather actually have a set of rings that offered the 2-way with two different sets of ramp angles, say the 55/45 of the existing design and maybe a 45/37.5 combo for a less aggressive effect), AND another set of rings with a dedicated 1.5-way opening and a dedicated 1-way opening. The 1.5-way opening would actually have the steeper angle on the overdrive side that causes it to be less pushy than the forward drive angle, like you see in many other diffs. But really - if this Nismo thing is thought out properly and all those surfaces work on each other the way that they need to, who am I to argue?
