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.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
