i have the following stuff...HKS GT2530's,HKS manifolds&dumps,HKS Cams&springs and a Greddy Plenum.....I also have Nismo gasket set,HKS pistons and HKS conrods here but i am waiting for my Nismo flowed head thanks to my good friends at kazzama so i am waiting until i get that before i build up a new bottom end... this will most likely include a dry sump set up .I have been gathering dyno data from standard setup then turbo fitment then greddy plenum and the next run will be cam data...then we will know what does what

no....Apart from the flowed head i am getting i do everything myself...right down to the block boring....so the money you guys pay other people on doing stuff...i get to spend on the parts...i would be interested to see how much work some other people do themselves....i find it interesting to learn about stuff from actually doing it yourself apart from just paying someone or reading on the internet....My mind is a like a dry sponge!I look for stuff to absorb and hope other people can also learn from the things i have learnt...this is why i aint usually at any functions or partys ect...i can always be found in a workshop or machine shop somewhere......usually playing with something out of the ordinary!

    • I was wondering about this. I'll do some research.
    • Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.
    • Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.
    • Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task
    • Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.
