gees if you went too all that trouble to rebuild your motor with forged pistions why did you not just add stonger rods it would have cost the same in labour and then you could have forgot about it and it would be good for 370kw or 500hp.

I would hate to guess, so depending on variables, generally speaking it should be fine, but if its a 32gtr replacing old items with new makes sense. I take it you got upgrade turbos to handle 300kw? And seriously think of getting a N1 oil pump at this powerlevel for all day every day.

yeh they have ARP rod bolts.....I bought the car with the motor rebuilt if I did it I would have put steel rods in it, Also has an N1 oil pump and GT2860R turbos has all other components and support mods to handle 300kw just wanted to make sure the rods will be alright cause my mechanic was a bit sceptial bout it.

thanks for the info guys, also another quick question would the stock AFM's be ok for 300kw? Ive been told a cheap way around it is to you 2 rb25det ones??? Also I know this topic may have been covered aswell with a good pump and reg would the stock GTR injectors handle 300kw? I have a set of 660 nismos but im sure the $750 could be spent elsewhere if they went necassary

i wouldnt push my luck with the injectors and fuel pump when asking for 300..just generally not a smart move.

leave your AFM's as stock RB26DETT ones they will handle that fine (saving of about $600 from Z32's)

      Wanted to buy R200 longnose LSD 3.9 ratio

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      By sonicii · Posted

      Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.

      M35 Aftermarket Fuel Pump

      Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
