Great job!

Whats next to do?

Ha ha, well..

Clean and polish!

Sort brakes out.

Catch can

Tune, maybe injectors...

Fit a stereo

Nismo MFD and install

Might be around Dural area every now and again! :D

Look forward to the next installment.

Catch can, this is one thing Im looking into at the moment.

Im interested in the Racepace units as seen on Tangomatt's 34 - going to chase up prices.

Is that the combined washer/catchcan? if so sounds good!

Got brakes back from being machined, on a lathe this time and they are better for street now, smooth, but high speed stop or heat in them still makes em shake a bit, so new rotors will be on the list I think. one is looking like it's had a better life.

Just took the car for a drive and it's been great!

Getrag 6speed is noisier at idle and taking off but thats due to the flywheel, no more dual mass.

The 2860-9's are what I'd thought they'd be like :yes: . Great response, meaty mid range and revs out nicely. It's running at 17psi, 1.2BAR on gauge is maxed out lol, injectors are at 90% and knock has a peak of 22, yet to be tuned but runs great.

In 6th gear I see 0.8bar, 12 PSI at 3000RPM. The way it comes on boost is impressive considering the stock cams, manifolds etc. The engine had cam gears already fitted so I haven't touched them.

Pulling out of corners, it just accelerates, so no real problem being in a higher gear too. :)

Let us know how much they are nick :banana:

Fitted up the alpine x types in the front door today, and bitumen deadener, then it rained so I still have to do the passenger side.

That's not my fully sik scubie by the way! :ermm:

Not much money now lol. Lot of it is doing it smart and not throwing money at it without having a plan/goal first. Made that mistake with the 32, spent way too much.

Will post up some pics soon, go away rain!

Thanks Brad and Scott :blink: White is a pain to keep clean!

Audio is pretty much done, still have boot space. Also sorted out the catch can setup. Put a vent/drain into the dipstick hole from the catch can, seems to work well.

May go an alpine sub and mono block later on. A 4x100watt alpine amp is running the front and rear speakers from the audio processor.

Had it dyno tuned the other week and the standard wastegate actuators that I put onto the -9's aren't controlling the wastegates properly at high boost, see dyno graph.

Runs well though and new actuators are on the way. Still running stock injectors and afm's.

Also going to replace compliance cat and sort out exhaust.

Steve-o, maybe....:happy:

Pete, I ended up getting the catch can from just jap in Kirawee, comes with the hose, I bought extra hose to set it up how I wanted it.

Bryn, I'm pretty sure the non vspecs didn't have em as the exhaust temp and intake temp is not shown on the MFD, I could be wrong though as nissan do some strange stuff too. You can fit the rear vspec dump to a non vspec....

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
