slide stage 2 is a 360degree journal bearing rb25det turbo, oil and water cooled, with max hiflow port work done to the front/rear housing, and big steel wheels

with timing and fuel deliverie issues sorted at various rpm points it should be anything but laggy; very very close to stock in terms of minimal lag

I'll get the stag to Boostworx then with the current turbo and see if Shaun can smooth out that lag then :P

good choice ruby!

sorry to hear craig, 98 is a good knock tho

andrew, was willing and ready for a blast down to victa, n/m

warm weather hey, weird side effect from the fentynal patches is massive random sweats

sux

that's the one that was sitting at wilall a month or so ago! and isn't the osgiken 3litre insane? i know of a dude who has keir's old engine in his track prep r32 with 2 trust t51's i think, it pulled about 420kw? with over 1000nm of torque and i remember when he took me for a spin! started off in 2nd and ripped up the semi slicks like they're nothing and man can this guy can drive as well

Yeah mate that's the car - and Munro's engine is the identical specs to Keirs old one, and is making about the same power too. Very scary, but a lot of fun.

Sorry Brendan - I didn't see your post until I got home. But you wouldn't have been able to keep up, in all seriousness .... we were going *cough* a bit fast - to give you an idea we did the 50km from Delamere to Victor Harbor down Range Road (favourite road in Australia) in under 15 minutes .... maybe next time :P

cant believe the OS Giken block is worth $30k!

yeah me neither - and Munro has 2 of them - one in his 3lt streeter, and one in his race GTR (which is nearly finished and will be running over 500rwkw again on E85).

Betcha $50 I would have kept up :down:

in all seriousness too - Im not a betting man, but One Id take 'cause I know Id get a free fiddy (no speed limiter, good suspn.)

:D

alls good, I knew I posted too late, should have posted at 7am doh

and yes I know the delemere rd very well, favourite road as well for me, closely followed by clarendon thru meadows to the end; strath-goolwa turnoff (damn got a brain fade on rd name)

one of my friends just picked up a vr4 4g63 motor, gearbox and a full aftermarket turbo set up with ex-gate, manifold etc for stuff all

he only wants the gear box for his car.

doesnt anyone know of any rwd cars that we can get CHEAP and dump the motor into or does it have to be fwd or awd to work?

I've heard crazy rumours that the engine is a bolt in proposition for older model RWD Lancers (like gearbox and mounts all line up).

I have an older model RWD Lancer, I think we should test this theory :D

Nah I read somewhere the factory rally team (or a private one, can't remember) using the old lancer chassis put one of the first 4G63s in, although in typical internet fashion this is probably a crock of shit.

Still, my Lancer is an A73 I think, the first one, with a 4G33 engine. The engine code is similar enough so you never know.

yeh thats what we were saying! On main roads too!

Was talkin to the lady at the local corner shop, said that one of em got hit by a car runnin away or something, but has been caught.

Watch channel 7 tonite i guess and find out the details.

I can't believe it either.........I doubt if the block alone is worth $30K........maybe with very expensive internals ie. a short motor

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
