nah, im over it, going to leave it for a week or two.

going to pull engine and pull crank out to have a good look, the oil surge was causing more issues than first thought. Having the oil warning light set to 30psi definately saved it from major damage but it will need a bearing set. Its not a big issue but i have plenty going on at home and just dont have time atm. only need a day to pull it, repair it and refit it, the cash is the issue atm. If all goes well i still might make the track day. just need motivation and to rob a bank lol.

bull shit it does, get out in the shed now and get back to work!

pulled engine last week and removed a big end set and a main set of bearings. They actually were borderline of going back in, but have decided to change them anyway. Sump is being repaired and bearings on order.

Im 4 days out of knee surgery so in no position too do any work. Probably look at it again in a few weeks.

Busy last week has seen some big changes in my work priorities and has made me re-think some of my life ones, so with regret i have had to make the decision to put the car on the market. Most of you have seen it at the track or read the build thread so dont have to say too much but if anyone is interested and has any questions id be more than happy to answer them.

For sale link is below.

Cheers guys.

That really is a crying shame Stu, you deserved to get more enjoyment from it before moving it on. :blink:

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
