Marko how is the Nitto oil pump going for you? What sort of oil pressures do you see hot?

- on cold start up it is over 6bar

- warm idle it is 4bar

- normal driving it is just over 6bar

- when i push gets close to 8bar

HEAPS of pressure on hand :P great for the main & big end bearings!

i am 'thinking' of upgrading the rear housings on my -10's (i probably wont be arsed yet its good to know anyway)...anyone have experience in running .86's in a twin (or single) configuration as i would liek to determine the power gain & fitment challenges as below:

- the requirement for customised dumps

- i was advised that .86 rear housing is more suited for single applications & that it might become too laggy (i dont want lag but maybe i can get away with it on a 3ltr)

- i wasnt sure if there would be adequate room & clearance to run the larger turbos in a low mount position?

here is the website, shows .86 option but no technical specs:

You dont think they would be a little big for the street? Run E85 then if you still want more (you nutbag) then go the bigger housings?

E85 isn't a bad idea but the inconvenience will definitely do my head in.

With the larger housings I do question the possible lag and clearance issues, anyone know what they are rated at with .82s?

i fitted the new plugs & splitfires - runs like a dream & seems to hit harder all around :down:

i know its probably better for the coil packs to run without the valley cover as they probably get more air ventilation, is this more apparent on the track though as mine is a street car (and the valley cover adds bling to the engine bay :P)

yep you should run the largest gap you can without missfiring, bigger spark = better burn = more power. 1.1 is ideal but many people gap them down as low as .8 under larger boost

Hi guys,

When i 1st ran my car over the weekend with my new coil packs & new plugs bcpr7es (gap 0.8mm) it was fine at the time but i only drove it for 10min. I started the car again last night & right from the onset on idle it was carrying on, coughing, very rough & could barely reverse it on flat ground so i let it run for about 10min & the idle slowly became cleaner but as soon i revved it the engine was extremely rough.

I checked the plugs & they were black like powder charcoal – very rich!

I then put my pfr7a’s (1.1mm gap) back in & the problem was fixed, drove it for an hour with no issues 

I am trying to sum up a conclusion as to the cause...both plugs run the same temp sooo it must be the gap right?

As u suggest Duncan, the larger the gap the stronger the spark & better fuel burn? It was tuned with pfr7a’s @ 1.1mm gap.

I am guessing that if i regapged my bcpr7es @ 1.1mm they would be fine.

hi guys,

i had my gtr on the dyno for a quick health check & i asked about my exhaust (steve N1GTR prompted me on this, damn you mate im gona go broke hehe). im currently running a hks superdrager which is 3.25inch at the front, then steps to 3.5inch mid way & finished with 3.75inch at the diff.

my tuner told me if i wanted more power to increase size & run x-force front pipes (2 x 3inch pipes which collect into a 3.5inch) then with a new 4inch all the way thru to the rear.

he told me i should expect 20awkw gain or more as the larger capacity rb26/30 really doesn't like back pressure :ermm:

1 of his customers cars made more than 20awkw. where does it end haha

Thats exactly what Racepace told me when I asked them about building me a mines style front pipe with a 450awkw goal with my new engine. Bummer was that they couldnt make the pipe for me without me sending the car down to them though, seeing as all systems are custom made to fit.

    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
    • Ok so i will NEED to have this sensor anyway even with Nistune (or standalone ECU) https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-boost-pressure-sensor-evap-control-system-fits-nissan-r34-skyline-c34-nm35-stagea-pnt30-x-trail-rb25det-vq25det-sr20vet?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqfxX48bW9bEwH62orcNhtBfp7ekAL0C9Ca89ySFGUiBzXfXeze Is this the correct one? And this is only thing i need? No other "things" connected to the sensor or something? I do have the wiring.
