Kudos to Jap Import Spares

Picked up genuine tie rod end for S2 Stagea or R34 GTR for $95 each.

Another place wanted $175 second hand!!!

:P

Now I gotta rip the tie rods and brakes out tomorrow and fit the tie rods and R34 GTT brakes ... in time for the Time Attack on sunday.

Just thought I would express my appreciation to my supervisor. He ordered me some new tools without me asking, and delivered them to me on the job site. He also delivered the good news that my new Subaru Forester will be arriving over the next few weeks, along with my new Dell Laptop.

What a champ!

oh, and my tax refund just turned up in my account :D

win!

Well I have decided I am going to go hop in the spa with a couple of beers .... so don't be surprised if you guys don't see me at Villi's tonight, as I may well decide I cbf getting out of the spa :)

And any Northies who 1) have my number and 2) know where I live, feel free to come over - there is plenty of beer and the spa holds 6 ppl :D

+ fart assing around with timing etc to ensure the mixtures are right and the timing is where it should be etc.

no once you start mucking around with timing thats a touch up tune and will be charged accordingly

for a AFR check all your doing is making sure @ WOT your AFR's are going high in the 12's to low 13's

will post up a pic late of my AFR run @ Jaustec need to scan it

EDIT

Chad did your clutch plate come today

anyone know the name of those crazy race driver toys that have the little man who makes the engine noise as you change up thru the gears, has a key to turn on, starts out subtle and gets radical as you shift up the little gear lever, its only about 6 inches tall or so ????????

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
