ah k cheers.

I have asked CRD for an e-manage install and tune but they did not recommend it for my car...apparently coilpacks are known the blow because of the e-manage blue, so they did not want to take on the job, or risk it - even with the coilpack resistor mod

im not sure exactly where Croyden Racing Developments are, but they have done a lot of RB engines in the past

i would try find somewhere/some place that knows RB engines, so have a look around the site

check out some of the racing guys sigs and ask them where they would recommend taking the car, like Duncan, DirtGarage, Snowman etc etc

Silverwater Rd.

Drive slowly, its very easy to miss them..

They are awseome.. but you pay for it out of the ass..

lol gnna try DRC in greenacre too.

will give CRD a go after wakefield on the 21st.

im gnna learn how to install new brake pads next week:d woot....well trial and error.

thanks for all the help guys.

yeah - heard that aswell

who is DirtGarages engine builder??? or do they do it themselves?

pretty sure its them..

PM. them.. their on their forums..

Saw their silver 32 track GTR.. :whistling: stunning shit..

If i didnt do all the work myself and had the money, it would be Advan or DirtGarage

OH!.. Try advan!.. Its onl silverwater too.. drive slow again.. very easy to miss..

Wow Eug!!! this went so far off topic sorry man, just wanted some opinions and i got a full blown argument going over Fi vs N/a...gah, my bad.

If you want me to end this thread to put it simply, i went and got a qoute for a LS1 V8 twin turbo set up, best of both worlds...cubic inches...forced induction...i can still play around with the engine as if it was an N/a engine before the twins...i can leave it until im off p's...the only thing i have to really wait for is the news on weather i can fit it in the engine bay, if i get the go ahead, thats what im doing. :/ If the engine bay has ot be modified then obviously theres the problem of Vic Roads meddling and EPA'ing the vehicle and stating that there has been 'structural damage' therefore my car will never be roadworthy, other than that, fingers crossed!

I do appreciate everyone that stuck on the ball and helped me out, especially since Eug pretty much wrapped this story up with me quite a while ago when the thread started.

Either way FI or NA the majority of us are Nissan owners with the same passions for our vehicles, don't loose sight of that and fight within the groups, cause i think we have alot more to offer than that.

Although for me now its the morals of changing over to a GM engine, I, don't think i can look at my skyline and go thats a skyline if i do it....and well, i love my skylines, it may ruin the experience of owning one, or it could open up a whole new door to tunning in my eyes...i just don;t know yet, but either way, my goals are to own a 34 GTR before i start a family, and thats a must on my to do list, so either way if i compromise on this one for the experience than i have patience to wait for my GT-R. I think it smore of an aproval im waiting for form other members to push me in th eright direction really. :wub:

That would be a near undrivable car on the streets.

Your looking at 400+ kw of pure torque then emense power.

Its simply a coffin on wheels.

As a pure track car/occasional weekend car, absolutely. But as a daily driver your looking at a stupendus fuel bill, a ridiculous clutch, constant oversteer a silly tight diff, constant replace of semi slicks..

BUT THE NOISE!!!! ohhhhhh *drool*

Honestly.. stick to a GTR, LS1+TT R34 would be a ballistic track car.. but your shooting yourself in the foot as a daily driver.

thats my 2c

not really

in fact its really driveable on the street

if its the Gen-TT kits that he's looking at they only pump about 5-6psi into an internally stock LS1 just to make it a bit 'happier'

its as driveable and pleasurable as a normal LS1, and boost doesnt hit hard as it relatively low

if you drive any car normally the fuel bill wont be crazy, and the clutch will only really have to be a exedy HD or equivalent, and tyres, well that depends on ur right foot

ps this is all from what ive read, not what ive driven or been in :D

pps - i say if thats what you want, then go for it

^^^^ shane, dont go to DRC for tune...

take it to unigroup or Powertune..

im going to get mine done at powertune..

rb25de vct with stage 1 tomei poncams & adj cam gears with a emanage blue ecu with both injector & ignition harness..

hey dori,

thats cool man. thats for letting me know

power tune is about 15 mins from my place.

can you let me know how you go + their charge rate. how much those poncams set you back ?

Thanks!!

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
