cheers man,  

I left Darwin 10 years ago, i cant wait to see what has changed.  

is there any places to get parts in darwin, or do you get them freighted up from adelaide?

Hi Dr Boost,

Packing container in the nest two weeks, if you need anything small it should be OK - otherwise sontainer is fairly full. I am going over in April and packing another 40 footer so can get bits for you then. Still have some stock - what are u after??

Cheers,

RBNT

not after any thing in particular yet, just wondering what the situation is like up there when you need parts.

Do you mean you are going to japan to get parts? beacause i will be looking for a 3" exhaust soon, cost?

i guess i will see you all on the road in a few weeks, keep your eye out for a silver r33 with nsw plates

rock on!!!

I will have a 3" cat back coming in the next couple of weeks and have a dump pipe available now ($220.00) only on car for 2 months. Next trip to Jap will be for parts, cuts and probably 2 cars. WIll keep you posted. I am leaving Darwin on the 6th Feb and coming back around the 30th.

    • https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild. 
    • Yeah very valid point. I am waiting for one of the other tuners to come back from vacation so he can help me a bit when the cat is installed again. In the meantime I am going to finish up my polishing and ceramic coating that I have started myself.    N45 Dr Beasley product is highly recommended for a paint primer / polisher. Using this EXO Gtechniq also for the ceramic but next time might use the light serum before hand also. Looks great. 
    • Running rich in conditions where it shouldn't probably won't do great things for catalytic converter lifespan. I would fix that sooner than later.
    • Yes, important point. Watch the Motive videos with Herman thickness testing the bores and deck. You do not want to push the unlucky (thin) block as hard as you can push the average block.
    • Make sure to have the block checked for cracking etc before doing anything.
