At this stage later this week I'm having the power fc, ebc and cam wheels installed and tuned (gtr) I have full exhaust and k&n panel insert. What else do you think I should do at this stage with these mods? Oil air separator maybe?

CAS will be doing the job.

thanks

clutch is done, will most likely do oil air at the same time.

I still have standard turbos, so will probably keep the boost around 18 psi, fuel system should be adequate afaik.

:confused:

dont think so, he asked "what else would you do at this stage"

IMHO, if you have all these mods, its probably time to learn how to make th most of them.

18 PSI is too much boost - you will either break your turbos or break your engine.... I hope it will be your turbos cause it will be cheaper to repair .

I like Duncan's recomendation.

Won't have much money left then hey?

Ceramic turbos should be limited to 1 bar or so.

If I had a GT-R, my first option would be a HKS electric torque controller.

But basic suspension mods like adjustable dampers, pineapples would be nice.

Suspension, wheels and brakes are done. Straight line performance has been the last thing on the list, although I'll be reviewing the suspension, I'm not completely happy.

CAS know how to charge, but can you recommend me someone that will do a better job?

driver training? You don't need this when you have a gtr, a gtr will teach you how to drive, I swear my car talks to me!

thanks heaps guys.

Done

I'm very happy with the results and the service from CAS

I went in with 170kw @tw @17psi in the morning, and in the afternoon I had 215 kw @18psi.

...and everything happens earlier, its so much nicer to drive!

thanks

Simmo, just a few questions....R u running a single-plate with ur new clutch, R u on the stock cooler? U should be around 400 plus hp @ the fly with this set-up (Very nice! ) I wouldn't worry about bigger injectors and a bigger fuel pump till you go the GT2530s.:uh-huh:

mmmm 2530's

The Nismo 581's I bought from Chris Salas ( and had to o/haul )

If I keep the car , will prolly wind up the wick to 1.3 bar and see what she does. The 550cc injectors are at 70% but the pump is starting to feel it...

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      Yes. Probably, given that there is only access from the bottom end of it, go with a drill bit. Don't start too small. 7 or 8mm is probably the right size. You want something that can make a big enough hole to do some damage, but not so bit that it clashes with the steel or binds up and breaks your wrist. A slow speed is probably a good idea too. Once the rubber is destroyed, you then have to get the crush tube off the stud, which will be the whole heat/oil/cutting exercise all over again, but this time with the need to strictly avoid damaging the stud (any further than the corrosion might already have done.

      We replaced the connector just because we could and it was still there, once we swapped the injectors around it stopped. The injectors were something I had thoughts of replacing even before I first started the engine and in hindsight I should have

      Not too sure just yet, want to have a go at doing what I can myself, but to start with want someone to cast their eye over it tell me what needs doing to get it running and back on the road, so anyone with great overall knowledge would be ideal.

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      I personally would go with cutting out the rubber. Then deal with getting sleeve off separately. Rubber can be painful to cut, it loves to jam up cutting tools. I normally have success with drill bits, deburr bits, angle grinders, jigsaw, reciprocating saw, and never forget... fire. Obviously different tools won't work in all locations you're trying to work with, and you need to be comfortable with each. You personally may be happy slowly slicing it out with a razor blade, if you are, go for it with one too! Feel free to wait for others to weigh in also on their thoughts.

      So ... I got everything disconnected and started dropping the frame. Three of the four mounts started to come down but the fourth one (the one with the nut that gave me all the trouble) won't budge. The inner metal sleeve stays up tight against the chassis rail although the outer part of the mount drops a bit (and can be levered quite a lot more) but it's just stretching the rubber bushing. So I reckon there's some serious corrosion inside the inner sleeve and holding it tight to the lug at the top of the bolt. Tried everything I can think of so far: penetrating oil, whacking the top of the sleeve to vibrate it and wedge a screwdriver blade in there. I also tried to turn the inner sleeve a bit by hitting it with a chisel at the bottom. It's stuck solid. What do you think about cutting the rubber with a blade so I can drop the subframe around it anyway. Then worry about getting the inner sleeve off after? Will that work? Is it gonna give me even more problems?
