Haven't had any interest in car so just selling engine, if no interest in engine then I'll start parting it out. Heads up that I don't have much spare time to pull it down so please understand the big bits will be sold first and small parts last if it comes to it.

Car has made 465hp @ wheels, had a lot of fun building it but haven't got the time or money to put it to use. In the time its taken to build I've gone from a single full boost hoon to a happily married sedate loving father. Having two kids under two years old makes it a lil hard to get out to the track and I'm not one for a Sunday drive anymore. If not sold as package I will keep some bits so I can put a stock motor in for the odd hill climb or to sell the car.

Whole lot $13,000 (should be everything you need for conversion to RB30/26)

I made the catchcan, 4 liters works well. Wasn't intending to sell it but I also didn't think I'd ever want to sell the engine. Let me know how much you'd pay for one and I'll think about it. Might even see if I could build another.

I did a compression test a couple weeks ago and thought the compression was a little low and I just found out why, there is a rubber o-ring missing where the spark plug thread adapter screws on, without it it screws up to far. Also just been told that I should be doing the test hot with all spark plugs out and throttle open which I wasn't doing before so I'll give it another try this weekend.

Power FC not sold, got a bit ahead of myself.

Price change to $12,000 ono for complete engine package

Price change to $17,000 ono for full car

Compression test redone, much better, pics attached aprox 150 over all. Engine was about 50-60degrees so not hot but still warm and throttle was held open unlike last time.

Also found video of last event I did, just small mucking around stuff.

17psi, engine would be able to make more but that was max fuel. Need to upgrade fuel pump and fuel lines but I believe it already needs a stronger gearbox with this much power.

    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
