nice work craig!!!

what parts do you need?

exhaust Gasket and 2 x AN fittings for the radiator!

Oh....just remembered the SP still needs to be fixed!

Edited by Jetwreck
I got a bit carried away in the grass events at the local car show. I think I dumped the clutch too hard in reverse gear... :)

Gunna get it fixed in the new year. New diff, uni joint for the drive shafts, get the rear diff checked out, brass button clutch is a little noisy so that will get a look too.

I am keen to have an A1 drivetrain. Does anyone know if these cars will handle 8000RPM launches? :D

Do you have a triple plate clutch?
Nah, he fly's back in some time tomorrow apparently.

Yeah he's been on the forum a few times lately. Did he enjoy KL? How many dudes did he shoot, any tournament trophys and shit? Chuckies crackn a sad, bcos he lost his license for three, great radar detector. lawl. so fck knows wen the nxt stag meet is. On the dl, maybe his place. Prolly after xmas now.

I keep forgetn you gots kids. I cant stands kids this time of year. no offense. bless their little cotton sox. lol

well not really. we are going to pull the plate out and machine some grooves into it for sealant (factory sump has this, 3l adaptor plate does not).

also....its just a daily not a race car. it will never spend 15min at 6000rpm like it does on the dyno,

fingers crossed it will be ok....but I will be struggling to have it back on the road by xmas

Checked on my adapter plate. Comes from Hytech engines and is steel. Owner Dick says his one has been in for 2 years with no problems (550kw R32GTR) but he has seen some aluminium or aluminium alloy ones which he said would expand at a different rate.

:/

Sif!!

I am a redneck from Kelsmcott :(

Had to attend a funeral at lunchtime today, and despite starting at 5.45am this morning (trying to put my insomnia to good use) I am still here at work ;) Could today suck any harder? I submit, it could NOT!!

Yes it could. You could have no job to complain about. btw, it sounds like coffee is your problem. lol.

is reknowned as the worlds most expensive gourmet coffee. Saw it at a spice and tea farm in Indo. I was only game to try the gin seng coffee and i was bouncing off temple walls for 5 hours. :/

Funerals are a real life changer. Death really grounds you. Ive been to 3 in the last year. Glad that fckn year is history.

thank's Dale....finished it at Midnight!....just had the suction pipe properly done this morning....car feels awesome!

Down for the tune next Tuesday/Wednesday!.....come on Mexico :down:

Awesome work Craig, phenominal turn around time from when you finally got the motor to having the car on the road.

Good to hear it's back on the road Craig :)

Be interesting to see what Cihan can do with the eManage and the Nismo ECU next week

:down: fingers crossed for some good results! We may have some eManage + Impul results in the not too distant future too :D

just go easy on the way back from mexico dude, i dont wanna come down there and collect my boot load of gear :D

:down: It is sitting here waiting for you mate

Edited by iamhe77

its too damn far, and im not enough mods along to need a tune myself just yet lol

that said, i havent done an oil change in a while, with the nismo ecu still learning, i got 540km from the last tank of about 70L. thats with some spirited driving also. im pretty happy with the economy of this ecu even though i have a boat load more power/torque!

ok, fair call on the employment status. I was "unemployed" for most of 2009 but I still managed to work more than 70 hours a week :D At least things arent that bad.

Oh, and about the coffee - YOU TAKE THAT BACK!!!11!!TY

*hugs french press* dont listen to the bad man, he knows not what he says

:down:

I am not clicking that link either, and I refuse to drink coffee made from beans shat by weasels. That whole stupid idea was thought of by the same people that think its OK to rape perfectly good coffee with tinned fkn codensed milk. I enjoy a morning cappacino as much as the next oversized-sunglasses-wearing-hipster, but tinned condensed milk???

I hate you! :down:

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
