3 month holiday

32 race car- came back blew the motor and like a good track car its just sitting down the side of the house growing spiders(its waiting for me to find some spare time to swap the engine out... work, drinking, baby stuff, wasting money on tow cars and the above engine built has tapped out my play money for the last few months)

hr31 gtr monstor- long motor is assembled, just waiting on getting the shell back to shlap the motor in an plumb it up

busy at work but i predict the race car will have it new engine installed in early march (post work being hectik)

roy buy the whole kit and flog the turbos off or use them on your car $1700 for the whole kit red nuts... also helps me pay for my haltek + tune

:)

Top work on the sump, I have been keeping an eye on his fabrication thread lately.

Just out of interest does he install his own style of baffles into the sumps or does he make them to suit aftermarket styled ones like the Mines or Tomei baffle systems?

Getting a little closer to building the 26 in my GTR and I am pretty interested in getting a similar sump done up for it

Cheers Marty

21 psi= ic pipes flying off and the old rb26 chestnut of popping the dipstick out

at first i though i lost a turbo.. but was just an ic pipe flying off. kept doing it even at 15psi so i packed up

getting rid of the just china hoses and going something tougher and will be back out with about 17psi to keep things happy (eg longer lasting)

    • 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
