I thought you were getting it back today for some reason... the 6th?

nah man there is sum special equipment u need to open the forks up on the gearbox, only a cuple of guys have it in qld, and the guy Dan at ERD uses, just got back today from holidays, so gearbox work will start today, the rest is all nearly done,

probably wil be monday or tuesday next week if everythin goes according to schedule and theres no hicups etc.

brake pads are being put in today, machining rotors etc will be finished today as well i think,

power fc is in, engine check light was on so Dans troubleshooting that,

front pipes and high flow cat need to be put in, then the full service needs to be done all fluids etc,

cam gears and timing belt and water pump and a new battery wil also be put in,

thats all i can think off,

after that its going to be off to EFI for dyno tuning and then on the highway home to St. Lucia :(

Yo getting your gearbox rebuilt Adam?

just new synchros and bearings being put in, my 4th gear synchro was worn, so i thought might as well change all of them and have less to worry about later.

i dont knw if people classify that as a rebuild lol usually when people say im rebuilding my gearbox theyr putting in a OS Giken gearset or something along those lines.

Its pretty much what mine got, its awesome, My Car is the wingless white GTR at Dans if you are down there before your car is finished feel free to check out the gearbox in my car, you will be impressed with how new it feels :(

PS Kamran Akmail, the fail boat is waiting to take you back to Pakistan

Dropped hussey in his 20s 40s and 50s letting him go onto 130 and now got out cheaply exposing an ordinary tail!

oh noice bro, was it there around 18th december, i saw quite a few GTRs and skylines there,my mate with a evo8 helped me drop the car off and he was shocked at how big ERD was and how many cars Dan had here, the only problem i find is the distance, 50Ks nearly from St.Lucia. i remeber oblivions gtst and a white r33 gtr which was awesome, im just hoping that nothing happens to my synchros again , but again i wont be shifting at redline in 3rd gear ever again, lesson learnt, respect your car as an ageing beauty,and treat it like it means the world to you, you f**k it and it will f**k you back,

il have a look at yours when i go to get mine.

Josh: Anyway, my colleague just told me today he's got cheaper tyres from stylish wheels at moss st than option1, KU36 275/35/18 for less than 250ea !! Maybe you can sus it out.

got quoted 350 dollars to tint my car at Tintacar.com, in milton, midnight express package darkest legal tint and 25 years warranty or something,

i remeber when my mate who had a monaro got his windows tinted he also got this heat reflecting layer on front windshield and back window, it was very very light but it kept the car relly cool and stopped alot of heat getting in, was wondering if thats legal or not.

Hey adam, who's doing the machining of your rotors? How much the setting you back??

Somebody has their panties in a bunch. I ment to reply to you but for some reason it didn't bring your quote up in the reply box so I just forgot about it lol.

Multispokes ftw. Those are the Work 11R??? something or other aren't they? They're pretty much a copy of the SSR Type Fs. Have a look at the SSRs they are so freakin sweet. I wanted them for the GTR but $$$.

Morning Mang

What's crackin?

Reply to my pm you dirty jew...

Oh and what you all think? r34 gtr motor

hey john,

from looking at the estimated reciept Dan made up for me, the machining is costing 132 including GST for a the pair, so i presume thats for front and rear.

Oh ok sweet. I need my fronts done, had no idea the elite one did that. I'll have a chat to him on friday about it

Looked alright but have you seen it? Do you need a mod plate even though thats a 34's rb26? Let me know when you wanna go check it out? I might tag along too. I was gonna buy my a/c bits from this guy when I bought the car but he's missing some bits which I needed.

Going to look at it tomorrow. Found out it has no rego cos he let it expire :( . Laws for engine swaps are if the same motor goes in, just need to change the engine vin numbers with the dept of transport...no mod plate needed cos there's technically no mod done to it. Car came over from japan with that motor.... I'm gonna have to look for dealer plates if I'm to get the car though...

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
