haha yep....these things always take waaaaaaaay longer than you expect

Yeah...stupid cars!!!

in other news the car now has a great big bloody towel rack bolted to the boot...ill get some pics tomorrow, and my manifold gaskets should turn up tomorrow...so hopefully it will be running again on the weekend :D

I'm liking this VERY MUCH!

Let me know how you find the new turbo, as I want to pull my turbo + mani off soon and replace it with a bit of a smaller turbo, purely to bring boost on sooner... Thinking a GT3076 or GT3540... (On the 3L)

That's if it holds together on Thursday!

Going to use the 25det head ive already go.

not going to do much to it, just clean the ports up and whack in some new stiffer valve springs.

1... Throw that idea in the bin.

2... Sell me your 25 head and forward facing plenum.

3... You go buy a 26dett head.

4...

5... No profit, but lots of win...

As for my turdbro...

nah i wish lol

they are just cast replacments from precision, i just like cleaning every thing up, as rough edges are more prone to breakage than smooth ones, just have to careful not to take too much weight off a single piston compared to the rest.

yeah, its somthing to consider, but changinf to a 26 head would be a $5k + exersize, by the time i buy a head, turbo's, dump pipes, new injectors etc etc.

So im happy to stick with the 25 head and pay a few bucks to have the water gallery welded up and delete VCT

you know that a 26 head is an easier fit. no block mods needed

Actually, the 26 head needs the head studs tapped out bigger in the block.

The 25 requires a touch of weld and hey presto, bobs your uncle.

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
