Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Hey Jess,

Sorry i missed you Saturday night a villies!! =( i came by, but it was too late and everyone had left or was leaving

Car is good, just trying to finalise all the upgrades/service/mods im looking to do to it.

Crank collar looks like its going to be WAY too expensive, so its looking like N1 pump + improved pickup (the boostworx mod i was talking about) + sump baffel + Cam Cover Baffle Plate and i already have catch can(s)

then im also looking at suspension upgrade, boost controller, cam gears and 100,000km service. so just a little bit of work on the car =)

dont you just love tax time?? =D

Aww you came past!! Would of been nice to see you again! ;)

Really crank collar is to expensive :) Good stuff on the other mods..haha your going to run two catch cans? ;)

OoOoO What suspension you thinking? There are some really nice boost controllers in for sale section right now and not badly priced either I love the Blitz one

haha yes I do!!!

Crank Collar mean removing engine from the car so the crank can be taken out and machined, hence lotsa $$$ (well, lots more $). and i think there is at least 1 (possibly 2) catch cans in the car already

where are these boost controllers that you speak of? i'm looking at the profec b spec II

suspension is just minor upgrades, caster, rear camber and front and rear sway bars

after all that is done, i think i'll be happy enough withthe condition of the car to look at taking it out to a few track days

hmmm bummer!

Oh little one you must use the force of the "search button" in for sale section private parts "boost controllers" and they all come up -there is a profec b there for cheap but has a busted solonoid ;)

CRD was selling them $375 delivered in there trade section! :)Greddy Profec B

You will feel the difference! haha should see how much negative camber I run on the front..awesome for trackdays not so good for street use ;) but dont matter cause basically a track car only now

OMG YAY!! will be nice to see you on the track!

brrrr i'm so cold :)

i got a call from 1 of the midwives, to see how i'm doing haha

there making an appointment for me so i can go talk to them

Yeah, I wish it would warm up, even a little.

Good luck with your appointments and all. You'll now find out how everyone is an expert in birth and being a parent. Have fun filtering thru all the bs. ;) If in doubt, talk to the real moms, like Kell.

oh, you mean second hand stuff.... no ways, prefer to buy new and isn't $375 a bit on the expensive side? =P

YES -ve camber FTMFW!!!!! I figured that i should really do the crazy driving on the track and keep it safe/off the roads, i just didn't want to do it till i knew a lot more about the condition of the car

this just in!

my car just randomly stalled... twice? stopped at the lights... revs dropped and stalled, started it and did the same thing?

i had aready been driving my car for about 15 minutes previous to this no worries.

only difference is i didnt warm it up before i drove it. i normally warm it up for about 2-3 minutes. could that be the problem?

this has happened b4, and i thought it was a fuel issue so i changed the fuel filter.

any ideas?

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
