Cst's Wayne. I can hook u up a set when I'm bak in adelaide. Currently in a club in Sydney :mad:

We'll talk when your back in Adelaide man :P

Go hard! lol

Edited by Weezy

also have the thought that it was done when engine was cold so pistons and stuff still needed to expand etc..

specs:

Fully balanced

Arp main studs

Arp head studs

Acl bearings

Acl 1.2mm head gasket

Ross/acl pistons

Argo rods

Adj cam gears

Gates timing belt

Has a rb20 exhaust cam on the intake to take the vct off

Was built with all new Nissan bolts, gaskets, seals

Once you have different cams and or adjustable gears, comparing compression results to factory will tell you nothing. This is also the same if you fit a different H/Gasket and the pistons will probably be slightly different compression to the factory ones as well. The difference between the cylinders is what you have to look at but a leak down test is what you really need.

You wouldn't want the difference between cylinders to be more than 10 psi but that's probably not to bad for a cold test.

Brass balls for the bloke. I was at eagle on the hill one day back in 2009 and there was a bunch of hecktik biker boys in full leather on their GSXR's etc racing up and down, in 45 degree heat :\ Crazy kents!

I found out what that grinding noise was, in my drivers side wheel arch. The retaining pin for the hand brake shoe had popped off, and got stuck in the drum, where it started to get ground down. Now to source a pin, and spring.

EDIT: about $5 for a pin and spring from Grand Nissan, so I have ordered 4, may as well replace them all while I am at it, should be here tomorrow or the day after from Melbourne.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
