is one better than the other?

and has anyone done a 26/30 with a Getrag hanging off it?

Hey Luke, get a price for 2 bud ;)

think that the S2 motor is the same as the 31 block, im sure ryan will know the exact bits tho

The series 1 VL block doesn't have any oil, coolant ports on the side of the block, nor a return point. They were all blank when they were casted. The series 2 and the R31 RB30 blocks are identical in the fact they have the Plugs in all the feed points. Km's wouldn't phase me either on these blocks as they are brilliant castings. Pulled the head off a clapped out rb30 with 440,000km on it only to find it still had original hone marks on the bores. You wouldn't go to the trouble of twincaming an rb30 without a freshen up anyway.

Wow! A lot happened on the SAU-SA soap opera today. I knew I should have set my video before going to indoor soccer.

So let me get this straight:

Cruises have finished? :O

SAU gangs have formed? ;)

Police are to be notified everytime we start our cars? :)

And everybody here has sand in their...body? :P

You all make me LOL! Thankyou. Peace.

picked up the 200 yesterday. epic fun. :P

anyone knows whats happend to that Sly GTR today? apparently had a mishap on main north rd near the ford dealership. Hope its nothing major.

yeah, saw that, saw him cruising up north east when i was headin in to pick up the 200, and then parked up and looking somewhat worse for wear not too long later near the ford dealership. mad me sad. :)

shotgun his front bar. but yeah sucks to hear, hope it isnt to bad.

wasnt much left of his front bar. took a nice hit to the front right corner.

Just took the 31 down to the boys at Aussie Dyno (& Mufflers) to get a new cannon coz i snapped mine off lol. Very helpful and polite guys! And now that im on uni holidays, time for all the other pointless crap to go in that i had just lying around ;)

Killed 2 years ago today at O'Halloran Hill by motorcycle colliding with a pedestrian and then traffic behind not seeing her.

Was one of the best friends, neighbour, riding buddy you could ask for.

A tragic loss to the motorcycling community in Adelaide, who co-coordinated with me a few awareness programs. Not forgotten.

Ride safe, drive safe.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
