My build is in progress :) bought a worked and complete head with all the goodies, dan from erd is going to build my engine, happy all round :)

Nicely done! That motor should be wicked after receiving the Dan touch.

No I didn't buy it, rather spend the $2200 getting the engine finished first. And after seeing the 6266 result on the 26 engine punch out 500 rwkw or what ever it was I'm deciding between different turbos again

it will be interesting to see how long that 26 of simons lasts with the 6266. He is chucking a lot of boost at it thats for sure. Should make a build thread!!!

What Ideas do you have for the engine at this stage. Do you know what injectors, Manifold, Plenum etc you are looking towards?

I have a front facing plenum with 90mm throttle body

Engine will be forged with cp pistons and spool rods, arp main, rod, head studs. Keeping vct inlet cam as dan made a good point about it. Head is built with new upgraded parts.

Fuel system will be 2 044 pumps from surge tank with nismo intank, 2000 Id injectors. Dash 8 fuel lines. I want the surge tank mounted under the car though for simplicity running flex fuel setup

6 boost t4 split pulse manifold, 4 inch turbo back exhaust

Will be pushing what ever turbo I get to maximum capacity with what the fuel can handle.

I will start a build thread soon.

How's your car going to Scott? ANy dramas?

    • A lot of the trim pieces on the E39 are super brittle and just dissolve when you try to get them off. It looks like a previous owner has used what can only be described as an industrial construction foam adhesive to glue down a tiny piece of trim.  Unfortunately this part of the tailgate is starting to rust because of how much shit is in here. This is stopping the water draining and there's a big build-up of dirt that is just staying wet. How can I remove this? Would a flap disc get rid of this?  I think this car spent a lot of time inland. There's so much light coloured, fine dirt and dust everywhere.  Sorry for the pic. I've cleaned this all up now so I'll get another pic of it clean today.
    • Surely, just about any shop that has done a Skyline (or Supra, or RX-7, or EVO, or WRX) will have done E85. But perhaps you need to specify what type of car, what type of engine, what ECU, you propose to be using.
    • Try an oil additive. There's a couple of options for "easier shifting". These are essentially a similar idea to what Redline put into their Shockproof gear oils. I had a 2nd hand R33 (in fact, as of right now, it is still in the car) that simply would not engage any gear with the engine running, with normal gear oil in it. We dropped that and replaced it with Shockproof lightweight, and suddenly the gear lever did what it was supposed to. At a cost, of course, of the then ongoing damage to internals done by running Shockproof. But the synchros were already totally uninterested in life, so there was no loss.
    • It always ends with the car burning down.
    • I see what you posted, but how could a warning light be going on and off if there is no sender for it?  The only other explanation is that the wire that used to go to the sender from the warning light is earthing somehow in the loom or at the connector, or that you have connected the warning light wire to something (maybe the temp sender?).
