T revs ah OK. Well I have that one. Lol.

I will be running 98 due to the fact I do a lot of mountain runs and track days and e85 is not available as much as I would need. But saying that I have 044 in tank and 740cc deatzwork injectors. So I have room to play for e85 when I get used to the power of 98. Its like a free upgrade and by then there will be more servos

Haha. Dual gate is true. But the internal one is locked of with a pin and is nice and sealed. I did it so I have better resale value as well as the option to use it for EPA excuses/rectification and the most important reason for me, bolts to existing dump pipe. Nice and easy

lol Dan, yours makes mine look like a brand new clutch. Speaking of which, reco gearbox and new clutch are in. It was dragging at first, so I swapped in a longer slave pushrod and adjusted the pedal. Now the take up point is a little too high, so I have to adjust the pedal again -_-

Only been on a short test drive, but she feels great so far - no more crunchy gears and the organic clutch is very friendly. Can't wait for my 1000km run-in period to finish, then I can see how this NPC holds up to the SS1PU...AND GET AN E-FLEX TUNE!

no more crunchy gears :woot:, sounds like somethings wrong with it man pretty sure its meant to crunch :P

whats a gearbox reco usually worth..

Stao what would be the going rate for GT2871R or equivalent cores into stock 300ZX housings? Saw another 300ZX running this and getting good results so just asking.

Yeah the poor thing took a beating!

So I found the rattling noise in my clutch goes away when I slightly touch my foot on the pedal this is before the pressure point.

Should have it back out in the next week and then we will know what's going on.

Can't wait to see your 85 tune and what power it makes! As soon as tax comes im hitting it up and also going to get stao to swap me a 14psi actuator

Your rattling is the thrust bearing, 99.9%. It's common with aftermarket bearings...spraying grease on the thrust carrier/bearing through the clutch fork cover can help.

From memory Race Pace put a weaker spring in my actuator to dial back the preload.

Well for me it's free (:P), but it starts at $1500 and finishes at $2100 for a worst case scenario box.

They are 1600 for the pair. Equivalent to 52t.

how are people killing these excedy cushion buttons with 200/250rwkw i got the hhhhdcb7056 has handled a 330rwkw rb30det now in a rb25det still going strong

Cushion button isn't that heavy duty; the clamping load load is what lets go under power. It's just a very good clutch for launching hard and retaining daily driving ability in a standard or slightly modified vehicle.

That's coz its a HHH lol... The others are only running single heavy Duty stuff

This

But I still think mine should have handled 195rwkw for more then 8 months or whatever it was

Can't thrash it yet, but I'm already noticing the difference in drivability. Strangely, my KAAZ behaves better through low speed turns or when slipping the clutch - bonus! And even though it's organic, this clutch has more on/off action than the cushion button (go figure?), you have to have a decent amount of revs to take off smoothly or be precise with the take up point - love it! It's also possible I now have a lighter flywheel because of all the meat they had to take off it lol.

picka-boo TiAL :D ... pretty happy with the end result.

only on 10psi at the moment but holds dead flat, car is alot faster and spins all off second if i dump the clutch which it wouldn't do before.

Booking a tune at Chequered Tuning next week, aiming for 280rwkw at 18-19psi

Yes that is.

I'm recently putting in lots of thoughts into modifying stock exhaust manifold. All we had to do on it is basically mill out the top layer of the cast, weld in larger diameter of steam pipe and external gate port. Should be producing same results as any of the $1000+ exhaust manifolds, while probably cost a third of it.

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
