Hey Mate,

I've send your updated details, but no reply as of yet.

i did send this direct to acpt tho.

i also asked moar questions and shall report as soon as i know!

Did not get a reply yet from Acpt,

so i sent details thru to Aussie distributor, which have now been updated with him

as for time frame, still unsure, still in queue as we got in just after big promotions for Acpt.. which has caused a delay.

I have the news everyone has been waiting to hear :D

I have an email at home but have not been able to post it as the forums have been moving..

the 18th i will most probably be making the final deposit and they will be getting sent out.

we are on the production line at the moment i think. so not long now :woot:

will post email when i get home

thanks for the patience

Andrew

Nice one mate. My R is is getting the gearbox and rear diff done at the same time. Then it's on the dyno for a pass or two. I have'nt made any changes since the last dyno run so it should hopefully show any gains from the CF shaft

great to see they have started. Do they have an ETA on delivery as you have stated final deposit on the 18th...

Hope they got the shaft length correct on mine

Edited by Dr R

yerp the 18th and onwards they are expecting the shafts to be ready

and i figure something like fedex for delivery dew to their size,

so thats usually under 3 days..

i will confirm all this with him

niiicee this will be interesting :laugh:

Hey Andrew..

I got one small drama in that I`m heading to Korea 26/8 then onto Oz and wont be back to Jappa until Sept 18th..I dont mind paying extra coin for fast Fedex or UPS from the states if it can be delivered before 26/8.

Whats the chance they`ll be ready by 18th this month??

Hey Mark,

I'll check with him to see what he thinks the date will be, he thinks they will be ready by the 18th but i will check again.

i'm sure dew to their length they will be fedex 2-3 day delivery anyway. its the only way to ship out of the us i know this from snowboard purchaces

Cheers bloke....

UPS do it as well..2-5 days..the more you pay the faster it gets here..

Andrew if you want snowboard gear, buy out of Japan as its cheap as chips...Boots are a hassle cause not many big feet but but last seasons boards,bindings,snow wear goggles etc are usually half price or less. The Japanese always buy the latest and greatest and hardly buy last seasons gear, plus everything goes on sale here in Oct and by Dec its heavily discounted..

More than happy to help out if your after anything...I live in the powder capital of Japan and am regularly digging me GTR out of 60~100cm plus snow dumps..sorry bit off topic

Edited by elrodeo666

Ok they should be out before then, checking up on this.. but if not is there another address we can use?

i buy my gear from america with similar situation, got a whole 3500 retail here setup for 1500 mmmm powder, i might have to visit sometime!

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
