Oh noes! The first pass didn't go well I take it?

Maybe have a chat to some compliance shops and see if they have one you can borrow for a day or 2?

Thanks Sean ill be in contact soon if i need it, im unsure what im gonna do now i got a few dramas with this car passing the pits lol.

Dale yer not good news, I need to swap the engine for a stock engine with low mount twin turbos and stock ecu if possible to pass easy, i got picked on major stuff last inspection and need full mod approval.

i got picked for no engine number, engine conversion, auto to manual conversion, suspension, brakes, emmisions, turbo, etc etc pretty much the whole damn lot :)

i got a few options now, i have recently bought a low compression rb26 complete so i will build that with some forgies and chuck it in with some low mount turbos in the future, im thinking strip mine out now and hand the rego in and track it for a while and see how it goes, i wanna go back to the drags atleast before it gets a new motor and run a 10 second pass, i got a big tune booked for 3-4 weeks away to so ill be on race fuel and about 26-28psi boost (instead of 18psi). Ill see how light the stagea can get as well with everything out.

these are just a couple of ideas i am thinking of at the moment, ill see what happens in next few days

when i saw ya reply i was hoping u had an exhuast to offer....lol

i have a stock motor here i just gotta throw in some forgies and rings and bearings and its good to go, problem is i want to do a rb26/30 instead which makes things difficult really at the pits :) I had a chat to my engineer mate and he thinks if i submit the mod forms and dont list the cams and ecu and see what happens at inspection time, ill just get approval for the other crap and hope to hell i get a good bloke down at welshpool pits :(

sorry for getting ur hopes up!! i dont even have the car yet let alone a zorst!!

hmm rb30 yeah mite be hard to pass. Fill in the mod permit form for sure and dont mention the good stuff. Do you have to take it over the pits in whelshpool? My mates GTR passed down here (bunbury) with simialar mods, all we did was plumb in the gate and lift it.

      Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching

      Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.

      Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
