if that was the case, then 1/2 psi extra boost on a car with STD internals would take care of that.

Peeps generally do a rebuild with forged pistons and aftermarket rods to be able to cope with more HP, RPM & strength.........not for better response.

Alot of people dont realise this.

Driving home today i noticed the RB30 in my daily driver has done a bottom end bearing....sucks considering its a really tight motor, Brand new head, no lifter noise what so ever. So thats a job for the weekend. :laugh:

ive teed it up with ryan to have my new rotors installed when they arive, now to find a decent set of pads, and fluid.

:laugh:

Craig, Steve Madaz & I are doing our brakes soon with the EBC Redstuff....I've looked long and hard for a pad that has good cold bite for street use that's reasonably quiet, has reasonable fade resistance for light track work, low dust effect and without being too aggressive on rotors.

If you remember I posted this thread Brake Pads and the general consensus from the likes of Evil34, PureSX, Ryan & Jenkies (just to mention a few) was that the EBC stuff is pretty good, not to mention cheap and available on the Groups Buys .

The EBC Greenstuff seems to be good for street use but the Redstuff would be better for street/light track work, plus they're ceramic so very quiet & low dust. The Yellowstuff seem the way to go for heavier track work but also dustier, noisier and more aggressive on your rotors.

Hope this helps

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
