Knore,

Do you mean EVERYTHING? As in all internal engine work, bolt-ons (turbo, FMIC etc...) & all lines polishing and so on...??? If so I'd take a few months at a rough guess. Sourcing all the parts, getting the time to do the work & then setting everything up can easily blow out to faaar longer though!

If you mean just the appearance stuff, then ~2-3wks.

All the best with it, which ever way you decide to go mate.

Hip,

Naa not finished yet. Still got a few more little things up my sleeve. The fuel lines & Speedflow fittings are yet to be done (see f/hose on inner LHS guard). The polished turbine heat shield is yet to go on. A few more silicon lines, new stainless clamps etc... Polished radiator air guide. New seats will go in early in the new yr too.

The list is endless...... :)

f*ck your cars clean whatsisname!

ohh you missed a spot on the firewall just behind the turbo :)

Doh! LOL :) Nice pick up! That's an area normally obscured by the dump pipe (off ATM being modified) Thanks for pointing it out, I'll give the area a once over :)

Mattress-The car is looking sweet dude.Are you still going to fit the Ricermatic? :D  :)  

           -congrats on the posting aswell.Damn that means i have to put up with Tania for a lot longer! :)  :)  

catch up with ya soon

G'day Matty,

Thanks dude :)

Mate I might go with 3 x Ricermatics, should be good for 15-20rwkw each! :)

Yeah we're stoked on the posting/promotion. More $$$, a nice fat lump sum payment, & best of all 3+yrs more in the defect capital of OZ - Adelaide.

You'll have to put up with Tan & me :D Well you see me & put up with Tan :) hahaha

Cheers mate.

Here's the new pic -

No coolant, just water for the run in phase.

It'll go straight on the dyno, but only for a basic check & a bit of load to help with ring bed in.

It'll be a few wks before any serious dyno work takes place.

I've just put 700 kms on mine - It's sweet as ! Has the best exhaust note eva and power - sheeez - Only running 9 PSI and I reckon it has more power than the old motor running 14 PSI.

Yeah - same re Serious Dyno work !

Hope to hear about your results soon whatsisname.

Cheers,

Joel, I have found they tend they start to feel more responsive, rev easier and pull harder, but I have only run in 2 engines, and it could be a case of wishful thinking.

Then again, I rode my brothers new bike (picked it up), then again in a couple of months and it definately felt alot more responsive.

I hadn't actually Hip! :D

Edit - Ok... you busted me Steve :D

Well I picked the car up yesterday (15Dec) & after 80k’s it already feels soooo good to be driving a Skyline again! The down side is having to do 2000k's of painfully tame running in mileage :)

The engine starts & runs as if it were still stock on the inside (nice & smooth - nil piston slap). It actually feels "more" responsive than I recall, possibly helped by a dump pipe change & lighter reciprocating mass. It also still has plenty of RB25DET off-boost torque, something I’ll be using a lot in the next few 1000k’s.

I might see a few of you in the hills in the coming wks, I’ll be the one driving very sedately: )

    • Actually looks like a Nitrous setup now 😆
    • @robbo_rb180 I already have a NEO head on the shitbox 😎 Just needs beehive springs so I can rev it past the 8600 rpm limiter, then again pointless too, turbo is out of puff lol. Wen da gods let me win lotto eh?
    • Everyone I know with a90 supra at time attack aren't having issues with 3-5 fast laps so far and one is decent powered one too. Saw a k24 swapped 86 with a 8hp70 and big slicks and aero which had no drama's at QR and Manton Park. I've stuck a 25 row cooler in my setup with 8hp45/50 in the hopes of keeping the oil cool as I plan on some racing next year that 20-30min sessions. I've also geared my car so won't be using 7th and 8th gear too. @Dose Pipe Sutututu just needs to get that samsonas in already and have that tassie guy fit a head and rev it too 11ty thousand rpm. 
    • My embedded systems thoughts have me sitting with GTS on this. Variation between same phone hardware, should be small. However, the internal "intensity" or "volume" amount that say Google passes to the app, will be quite different, as the underlying hardware will be passing different levels for the same volume to the Google OS. Until the app creator has had each individual phone, and set benchmarks and calibrations for each, the amount of error can be quite huge.   It can even be observed by using different phones, recording the same noise, and then playing it back, they end up soon ding different. A big reason for it, is even the different types of mics used in phones have different responses, and different frequency ranges. Then you need to get into the DSP, and the variations in those, their sample rates which then effect their frequency range, and then the quality of the DSP, and what type of hardware conversion they do to for the ADC within the DSP. Oh, and let's not forget at the low level phones are designed to cutout loud sounds. It's one of the reasons they suck in really loud environments (eg concerts). The louder you yell, the more you'll get cutout too Note DSP is Digital Signal Processor ADC is the analogue to data converter. I don't have any real data on what the variation would truly be, however, chat GPT says in general, their output is typically between +/-2dB to +/-5dB of what you're really measuring. So realistically, anything from 4 to 10dB variation is possible even with the same devices.
    • 'sif the error will be that low!
