It is certainly better than on the stock pump but at redline I am getting up to 95% duty cycle but this is with AFR of 10.5 so not too worried about that.

I agree, nothing to worry about. Rich AFR & still duty cycle to spare so headroom for more performance. Nice one.

called bearepairs

basically as follows:

him:"we don't touch the tierode ends to do an alignment"

me: "but you said you inspected everything under it"

"oh yeah, wanna bring it in and check it all again"

"yeah"

(slightly summarised)

fingers crossed they don't jew it up this time, heading up to the boat this arvo

so keep an eye out of me between melbourne and the gold coast

Took the car to Nizfest on the weekend - a club day at Hampton Downs - Z club, Primera club and my club: Skylines Downunder - which has a Stagea section. Didn't take part in the show and shine or Gymkhana but had a track session. The new RB30 setup is not fully sorted yet (will post up details and charts when it is) but still fast enough to beat some of the GTRs (R33 and 34 that is, not the new GTRs) but eventually ended in a cloud of smoke. Will be engine out job to fix some oil control issues (smaller restrictors, head drain, sump breather). But getting there slowly!

yeah queensland is the same, and quite obviously we pay a premium for them

Yeah it's weird.

Up to 5 letters, and minimum 1 number, and you pay a once off fee, around $70 last time I did it.

6-7 letters is a different class, and you have to pay per year. Used to be $300-400 per year.

Started fitting the Transgo shift kit to the M35 today.

While the car was on the hoist I noticed the drivers side front drive shaft has split the inner boot. How much are people paying for the new boot and is it a DIY job to fit the boot?

Yep on my mates hoist. Shift kit is all fitted, just ran out of time so will refit the valve body tomorrow and test drive.

So not too bad a job then? Got to do mine soon.

All going to plan so far, just take your time and double check everything. It was good having a mate check every step with me. If you have GOOD mechanical skills it shouldn't be a problem to do yourself.

I paid $125 to get a work shop to do mine in Sydney.

      What accelerator cable can be used with greddy plenum

      By Duncan · Posted

      I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
