Yep Luke i need my guards rolled. I'll do it myself if I can borrow the roller? All you have to do is watch and drink the brews I'll supply for the borrowing. Have you got a heat gun to heat the paint? I have one if you need.

EDIT!!

Hey Jenkies, I see you lurking there. How's things been?

nah he went from an rb25det to this rb26dett

will hopefully know whats wrong with it tomorrow, id LOVE to buy an rb26 from an R34 gtr but that wont happen.

Ah that'd be awesome. Just Jap have N1 crate engines, all built... just hook up the turbos and stuff... $12k.

Its not a 2hr job lol u dont need to take the inlet manifold off, just the throttle body and use a whole heap of sockets. If u get splitfires and need a hand yell out and i'll do it.

Thanks heaps, I would taken u up on this offer but morpowa have it at the workshop. Ill pass this info to em tho.

Cheers :(

Lol lets group buy that shit up!! They only have like 2 left haha.

But if you think about it:

12k for the engine

$200? for the postage

2k for the labour to take out/install the new engine

$400 for a tune?

I'd say, if you had a lazy 16k, it'd be a good deal. And you get all the strengthened goodness of N1!

Penny keep us posted about morpowa's verdict and how much they slug you

Cronic good luck getting an N1 engine tuned for $400 :(

edit

Penny there the same price as turbo ones you want SF-DIS009 there about 650 from nengun

Lol it was a rough guesstimate!

Come to think of it now... even PFC tunes are more expensive :(

Edit: okay, so they're now 12999 and they're out of stock :(http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=334&page=1

How about a NUR spec engine? http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=334&page=1

Or maybe a craaaazy N1 engine? http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=334&page=1

I think there going to try and replace just the one that's not working for now and see how it goes. If it works then sweet.. I'm pretty sure I want to sell it so I don't want to spend heaps.

I could change my mind. Just dunnooooo

why you wanna sell up?

I want to go faster, I'm always using the best products and servicing it all the time at morpowa and I'm tired of spending shitloads on it when im not satisfied with its power.

If it was turbo I wouldn't mind forking the cash out. At the moment it just doesn't seem worth it. :(

Lol Damo, just noticed your Quad-Turbo car description in your profile! Does it make 2399kw at all 6 wheels? :(

Nah im running a conservative tune on 30psi, 1578rwkw. Getting tuned for E95 soon, apparently its 150 octane. Should see 3000kw at the wheels.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
