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

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.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
