Just do general maintenance things.

Clean out your air filter, replace fuel and oil filters.

Flush out your trans and radiator fluid. Do your spark plugs.

Take it down to a workshop and get them just to go over your car, making sure there is nothing out of the ordinary.

That's what i did, even on my 31, and that is nothing compared to yours!

Wow. Parts for the RB26 are so confusing. Everyone recommends different things and plays down the use of others.

:D

Yeah no shit hey. Trying to find out about catch can setups/ oil mods for some piece of mind and just when I get some useful info someone two posts down trashes it.

All I want is a lightly tuned reliable GTR.

  • Oil mods like which catch can, relocator and oil cooler
  • Front pipes (No I'm not going to AM Performance
  • Pods or panel filters
  • clutch, ebc, injectors, cams, fuel pumps.

Too many options, too many chances of buying a brand thats not going to work well.

Just ask the people on here that have the proven power and parts.

700cc is way to big for a street car, you'd only want 700cc's if you're planning on going over 400kw. 575's are big enough for most street cars.

I wouldn't go smaller than 700cc, I'll probably have to go bigger if i want to run E85.

+1

our bosses sit in an a/c office all shift and come out for maybe 5 minutes a night to give everyone the eagle eye and go back to there 20 degree room :D we move tons of freight hourly by hand rain hail or shine. i get paid decent to do it so i dont care heaps but to make us work in 40+ heat for the same wage and same hours is bit of a joke

Who do you work for? my mate works for Toll loading planes.

Some peeps may have heard of The Tunnels just up the road from me in Panorama........they're used to store wine now and maintain a constant cool temperature.

Be nice to park myself in there for the next week or so with a big screen TV and access to the various Grange bottles in there :thumbsup:

Some History: The Tunnels

Those tunnels where also used to grow mushrooms. I used to live there when i was little cos my old man owned SA Mushrooms and he owned them.

I wouldn't go smaller than 700cc, I'll probably have to go bigger if i want to run E85.

Well if it was e85, most definately 700 would be probably what he'd be after if he's just got a 'slightly modified' car... not enough stations for people to use e85 as a daily (unless they can somehow run a 98 octane petrol tune as well)

I'll go with e85 eventually but not until it starts appearing at more stations- until they do, its impractical for a daily.. then and only then i'd be upgrading, but for anything up to 450hp/320kw odd on premum, a 575cc will do that and still have headroom

-D

just keep turning it full left then full right and eventually it'll bleed out into the reservoir.

Brake however you will need someone for that.

did that on the weekend and still no better haha

and i sorta flushed the brakes with a mate but i need to flush it all out and put new fluid in i reckon

43 on the laptop..... man i hate this thing.

would be easier to run to the library, and read a book by the time i get any info i want....

dont get me started on teh pron... slooooooooooooow load equals no load

:thumbsup:

any one had any experience with fitting these?

i want to run it with this

in one of these.........

fuel tank in there atm hasnt been used in 3 years, so i hate to see the shit in the bottom, also

need to replace fuel pump anyways....

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
