Well fast forward to now and I am building a new engine for it. Reason being oil in the coolant. On teardown I found cracks in the deck (marked in green). The oil was seeping pass the cracks at t

Haha!

Well got my new rear discs in finally.

322mm 350Z rear brembo. DBA 4000 slotteds. The originals were 298mm, replaced with vsII, N1 rear calipers and 322mm rotors.

They fit fine, only .5mm offset difference from original vsII, N1 rear discs, all other dimensions the same.

Also made up some carbon rear diffuser fin extensions as the stockers were a little dog eared (and small).

All up cost under $170 for structural carbon fibre sheet, rivets, rivet gun etc.

Ran down WSID, and got a best of 11.678 @ 122.56MPH 60' 1.846.

Next best: 11.744 @ 124.26MPH 60'1.843.

Out of the 4 runs I bogged it twice, and the 2 good runs I got excessive wheelspin!

More practice at launching needed :D

Car weighed in at 1622KG 1/3 tank of fuel.

After the last run though something happened as idle now sits at 600RPM. Still drive smooth, just the idle is way too low.

Must of either got a leak under the plenum for idle air control, or AAC is kaput!

Update: Well looks like the idle screw managed to wind itself in and maybe a faulty AAC valve, I wound the idle screw out and go a steady idle and put some sealant on the screw so it doesn't move around.

Yeah, needs a final tune still :) Would be nice haha!!

Looking at the vids the engine/gbox shook a fair bit on takeoff so I'm thinking something came loose to cause the idle issue.

      Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
