Objective was to make it look as stealth/clean as possible. Will probably end up going a stock route Blitz cooler down the road to make it look standard as possible.

Who woulda known there's a GT3076R lurking under there :)

f**k yeah! post more vids of it being driven and such!!

ok ok :P

Not tuned yet, only running 10psi but safely rich (dips to 11s and sometimes high 10s) and no ping ping. Doing a bit of a shakedown and sorting out a few issues (car has been off the road for 18 months) before I chuck it on the dyno and wind the boost up :devil:

Ah. just thought I would throw some pics up.

Only just running in , done 500kms so far so gud!

done what I believe is the absolute MINIMUM for a reliable build. + I threw in some old engine building skills cause I have got alot of spare time.

Brand new 25 oil pump

crank collar

Blueprinted complete bottom end.

Removed all casting flashes in block, crank, rods,

Polished, streamlined crank and rods

Balanced complete rotating assembly

New cast pistons (standard pistons so 8.3:1 comp)

oil restrictors 1.5MM(both)

opened up oil returns

got a good set of rings on my 3rd box , NPC rings were too tight, Hastings rings were all consistently 10 though too large, found the happy medium with acl rings.

Nissan bearings

mls head gasket

arp head stud kit + rod bolts

std cams + mild port job to head.

Remove casting flashes, imperfections, port matched to both inlet and exhaust manifold.

CC combustion chambers

Internal vct mod

Helicoiled every single thread on the exhaust side.

6boost, , plazmaman, 3076R.82Rear ext gate and 3.5inch turbo back.

only at run in stages, big difference in torque between this and the standard 25 that I had in place.

can't wait to get it tuned!!!!

having had my pod where yours is before, you will notice an improvement in power if you get it away from there and into the corner where it can get non radiator/exhaust manifold heated air.

Ive gone from having the pod in the corner to having it smack bang on the turbo.

Maybe because its winter(/end) but I haven't really noticed any difference bar the throttle response.

didn't change my mph down the 1/4 and sounds/looks alot better.

having said that, I will probably do back to back on the dyno and post them up

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
