Only one way to find out I guess but no more obvious than a Power fc hand controller and cops up here most likely wouldn't know what a boost controller looks like. Haven't ever heard of anyone getting defected for having one either :-/ they usually only check what's under the bonnet

Got a quick road tune in before the Subaru dyno day on Saturday, Cihan isnt very happy tuning the Emanage at 30psi, I guess I will just have to see how it goes. >_<

Craig, is that engine on its way yet? :unsure:

Yep, lol.

It doesnt seem to want to die, its had a hard life the last two years...

lol, any idea if the VQ will run into any issues with the high pressure? i've had a few cooler pipes pop off at 22psi, no big deal, but i'd start getting worried at 30psi on my unopened RB lol.

keen to see the results, thats with the GTX?

Yeh, GTX3071 with 1.06 rear, 45mm external.

Ive had plenty of cooler pipes blow off, I had to modify the throttle body due to the silicone not staying put. All my piping seems fine for now. The bonnet heat guard is shreaded from the air pressure when it lets go. Haha.

The VQ25 runs lower compression, 8.5:1, so I have that on my side. The ethanol has saved my ass though, there is over 6L per minute pumping in, cooling the pistons (hopefully). Its running 10:1 AFR's on boost and he took another degree out just to be sure. Theres at least another 20kw to be made there but we both want the standalone ecu in before its pushed further. Hopefully soon. :cheers:

Pretty happy with today.

Serviced the Stag, with a new HKS oil filter, Greddy magnetic drain plug and Motul 300v. Have to say the Valvoline came out perfect, as expected. Same gold colour but full of black, if that makes any sense. Got enough Motul for another change now, so I'll see how it goes before I decide if I should change back to the free oil. No difference that I can notice so far.

Started with the upgrades too. Just the front axle for now.

BCs went in, after some adjustment (5cm too short out of the box? WTF?). Followed Dales measurements, and added a bit to get it a bit higher. Feels very stiff but it is also would out to hard from the factory.

DBA 4000 Clubspec rotors and QFM HPX pads went in. So far still bedding in, so dont feel much of a difference yet.

Next week rear BCs, toe arms and brakes go in, then I'll change the lines over to the braided Stoptech lines (which look easy to fit) and refill the brakes with the Motul RBF600.

I have a feeling this car lead a good life in Japan. It seems to have been well maintained, and pulling the pads out today showed half used Nissan pads. I have a feeling it was serviced and driven normally in Japan, no thrashing, which is good!

But they might have been neglected by the previous owners. I think Aaron's was a bit like that.

nope mine was fine. i just had a leak from the oring behind the filter sandwich plate. its good that it was the only leak I ever had..

I think the reference was to some probs you had that could be attributed to less than ideal maintenance before you owned it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but things like banjo bolt blocked (first turbo failure?) and the sludge you found when you pulled your oil filter/associated mounting hardware off. Chances are a few oil changes might have been missed pinch.gif .

Yesterday I swapped out the painfully noisy Project Mu pads for a set of QFM A1RM on the front of my C34.

The Project Mu pads went straight into my mate's WRX (I have R33 Gts-t brakes)... should be interesting to see if they are as noisy on his car.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok so i will NEED to have this sensor anyway even with Nistune (or standalone ECU) https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-boost-pressure-sensor-evap-control-system-fits-nissan-r34-skyline-c34-nm35-stagea-pnt30-x-trail-rb25det-vq25det-sr20vet?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqfxX48bW9bEwH62orcNhtBfp7ekAL0C9Ca89ySFGUiBzXfXeze Is this the correct one? And this is only thing i need? No other "things" connected to the sensor or something? I do have the wiring.
