Yep entry is already in.

How easy does it stretch? ie does it go on and off easy, so you can work on the car?

When new, I just heated it up in hot water, was a bit tight but got them on in the end. Now, there is no issues with removing or putting them back on.

I got the hose and installed it today. Works very well, thanks for the heads up woolls. You coming up for the final round of the TSS?

No worries Ben,

I will be coming up, but only watching the final round, I have totaly stripped my bus to do a few things to it.

The car is back on the road again. It's been out for a few runs. Follewed the Nissan manual and ran the car at 4000rpm for 10mins to bleed the lifters... and it worked. while I was doing it, I was waiting for the valvetriain to come flying out the bonnet.

New engine feels good, heading the the tuners during the week for a tune.

if someone can work it out ill give them a prize.

a few hints.

old vs new graph. both e85 same turbo. same inlet.

less boost than last time.

that old graph is the engine that did a bearing before targa. the engine we did targa with had around 230 on the down hill sections.

And top marks to ben. hes built this engine all by him self. ive had other commitments so ive only been able to help here and there.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
