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)

    • Euros are shitboxes man. My next car going to be a Lexus or Hyundai.
    • Maybe I used the wrong sandwich plate as well. Used one piece instead of two piece.  
    • Y'know what, after reading a topic on a 360kw build using a nistune (who ended up going LINK), im now considering a LINK over a nistune. The engine protection alone would probably be worth it. And id like to learn to tune so would be nice to have that safe guard. Which means i probably wont need a boost controller then, or the R35 MAF.  Becoming a bit of a blog now but oh wells. As mentioned previously, the goal is around 300kw, for a daily driver. Will be looking at fitting a highflow turbo or similar (something that doesnt require downpipes, manifolds etc to be changed out) when the current stock gives out or the money for it is there. 
    • Thanks guys. Are you meant to tighten the converter bolts through the starter motor hole? Think my plate between gearbox and engine is one piece. Im heading up there tomorrow.
    • Picked my tailshaft up yesterday arv!! Test fit it and because they've gone to a ford centre bearing and CV I had to modify the mounting bracket a little bit. 5mm of each side and she went up into position and fits well. It has a 1350 uni and flange on the gearbox end so it should be plenty strong!  Got stuck in this morning and started on the wiring mess. Cut out all the wires not required that go to the body connector and cut the engine harness out. Need to go through and work out which ones I need to keep and rewire into the new ecu. Should save a small amount of weight as well. I'd love to get in and rip the dash and everything out to completely remove wiring but cbf.  Next up was the power harness for alternator, starter etc. It has a few connectors from factory that run out of it. Cut it all apart and removed what was no longer required and put some new corro and taped it all back up and bolted it all back into place.  After that I worked out where I can mount the new flex sensor. Found a couple of factory bolt holes and drilled a new hole on the bracket to suit. Need to go get a few fittings and adapters tomorrow so I can keep going.
