what is the crack going to be subjected to?? coolant?? combustion etc?? very few people will be able to successfully weld it up if its wet.. they need to be completly dry and clean to weld.

you could try some devcon... i used it on my radiator for 4 months, its still holding, ive just replaced it since.

um... why the hell would he want to do that? ya freak.

coz its more reliable and easier to get higher power derrrr lol

also you don't get cracks in the block...

also its a skyline forum so most people on here are biassed towards it

hehehehe :)

so waht you're saying is because it's a skyline forum, they don't know any better?

that's all im hearing

(ps. I purposely ignored the comment on reliability as i have nothing to say on the topic for obvious reasons. Thanks for reading)

whats wrong with the sr20?? if i had time and fundage... id consider putting one in my 32... but i dont like engine swaps like that.. but imagine the lightweight engine... mounted as close to the firewall as possible, with a lowmount turbo..

the weight would be behind the front wheels and with the skyline chassis and double wishbone front end... it would be pretty good on the twisties.

and they sound tuff.

nothing like an rb though.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
