Nah it turns too well. It is very twitchy up front. That and it bounces over the road with all the uneven surfaces in the mountains.

Sounds like it could have some epic toe out

think i might have to cut down my drinking.....

nnnaaaaahhhhh

It wouldn't suprise me if it did. I'm getting more circlip grooves machined into the bilsteins so I'll be able to lower to rear more once the suspension is in ill get a wheel allignment done.

dude its a 31 - lower it with an angle grinder

I was going to and I had everything ready to go on Sunday but when I got the springs off I found that they had the same circlip height adjustment as the GTR so I may aswell get it done properly. Saves it handling like a piece of shit and destroying decent shocks.

So the 31 has number plates now. I drove it home through the mountains

YES YES YES YES

Same as before. It doesnt go off the scale it just stays at like 3/4

just a thought - what about picking up an aftermarket water temp guage??

when my 180 decided to spit out its heater hoses at a track day my water guage jumped to 110degrees - whereas my guage on the dash was at like 3/4 - surely it should have been maxing out :down:

Oh is that all? That's only...90? that's no biggie :) just pretend it's not lying :down:

and is that running coolant or water to get so hot you can smell it?

On a 31 3/4 could mean anything from 45deg to 245deg :down:

Bah Colin DID get his licence back before i got my car back :( ha ha

Don't worry, he'll lose it again before you get your car back too :)

will be getting some gauges for eventually. I dont trust the standard ones at all.

Combination of both really.

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
