why seperate the pistons from the block after you had the bores, bored and honed to suit the pistons? sorry but an unmachined block is better than one bored out to suit pistons that dont come with the block.

I had to get new rings made for the pistons anyway so the block was bored and honed to suit 87mm pistons and rings - this is what i was told would be done by the machinist so i would think they knew what they were doing when machining block for a rebuild.

sure i'm no expert but are you?

if you have questions you're welcome to enquire and i can refer you to my mechanic who has built many hypo RB26's and was in charge of the whole process. Even if it had to be re-honed thats only like $80/cylinder which i would negotiate on the already ridiculously low price

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.

      Yep, cheapest options, neglected and abused. The fastest way to dislike a car is to get assigned that model by a budget rental company

      The noise complaint could be from absolutely anywhere, and anyone. Get it actually noise level tested to find out if you're actually over, or if you're fine. If you're over, quieten it down. If you're under, carry the test results in the car with you.
