Alex is to scared/to much of a fag that's why he went with the wide front guards. f**kn wheels f**king japan f**kety f**k f**k fcuk ahhh

:D

both engines have there advantages/disadvantages

although service on the evo piece of piss compared to the 32 even with the hicas pump removed

oil filter is a max 2min job, its arms reach underneath the car

True that man!

you're the one who admitted to having 11ty terrabytes of porn and no social skills.

370's aren't that exy, compared to say an M3. It's probably the only Fairlady other than a s30 fastback that I'd happily pay silly amounts for.

al... check out sammy from tyrepower hawthorne's 370

i'll grab photo next time i'm there

They only look good with a Power House Amuse kit on.

S30 WINS!

speaking of which when you gonna buy some rims for the taxi? and what are you going with?

im gona work some more and buy something good. maybe same rims as billy or meshies

i can already see myself dumping excessive amounts of money into it

How about I personally tell the popo you are driving a P-plate restricted car, and show them the way to your house...

they already know who i am and where i live...

you only need to hard wire it running walbros that are flow rated at 15v

in the skyline it will get around 12v from the standard setup which is fine for a bosch pump or stock pump

you will gain zero by doing a hard wire. i woudlnt do it (if i was ray), just takes time which will end up costing you more for zero gain

if you put a wallbro in there and were peaking 240rwkw then yes hardwire if you insisted on wallbro, but otherwise get a real pump - ie save cost and safety

what do you mean by real pump? nismo or tomei drop ins are a little out of my budget atm. the 040 seems to be doing the job. if i was gonna hardwire it, i'd do it myself over a weekend or something. cant b too hard

Is Bayswater too far for you?

chasers?

I was wondering what this shit about hardwiring was, scared the crap out of me at the thought I'd have to reinstall with direct feed. So just to clarify, an 040 running off the standard fuel pump wires should be completely fine for xxx amount of power?

The only issue I have now is when I "touch" the accelerator, say cruising around a carpark looking for a space, I hear a slight vibrating sound (would deadening fix this? Pump is secured pretty well to the cradle). Nut when idling without touching the throttle, or when driving I can't hear anything.

yes by real pump i mean non-walbro

you said 040 and thats fine a good model, it should give you around 260rwkw safely and easily

ive got a GTR one in mine and thats fine also, either is OK as long as its not wallbro

no need to hardwire, hardwiring the pump is bandaid for poor pump flow at normal 12v in the skyline

GTST has two stage pump control, low run and high run

when you tap the throttle the high run circuit runs and you can hear the pump more

drive around and watch ETC, SENSOR SW CHECK

youll see FP1 blip when you tap the throttle

driven an R34 GTR, and a 370z. I'd take the 370Z over the GTR anyday. Handles better, feels more comfortable, and more modern. 34 GTR's 10 years old now anyways.

Altho, R34 VSpec II or NUR I might take over a 370Z.

You WILL take a NUR over a 370Z :mad:

    • 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.
