Yeah thats what I was looking for were Gates. Meh, I'll change them when I swap out the radiator.

yeah thats when I did mine. CBC can get u gates kits for $99 or so... Joeleo87 who is/was a member here works there and took care of me

I also replaced all my heater core/coolant hoses with JJR silicon hoses when the head was off earlier in the year - am running a nismo 1.3kpa cap and an n1 pump so I want them to be able to deal with the extra pressure. so far they have not let me down, I have no leaks whatsoever

Will get some black ones eventually tho. I don't like the blue hoses in my engine bay.

hey sled went to willall today for the commodores owners club dyno day mainline is hungry hungry but still delivered on the torque figure wich i spose is good did 340 kw but 1087nm torque's had a good old chuckle with dingo and looks like i might in the near future have a looksee at all this zf tuning jargin hes banging on about more than likely ur car will be the first or one of the first to have it done to cant wait to see whats the g..o :thumbsup:

assuming thats flywheel torque, thats still pretty decent (550-600nm at the wheels?). nice power

My water pump was just replaced as part of a major service just before i made my purchase, not sure if it is N1 (pretty sure it isn't) but the switch to the 1.3 cap is what blew my heater hose. After two trips to sinergy they've now replaced everything they possibly could, bar the radiator hoses which are up to the job at present, albeit a no brainer to replace myself if need be. Graham spent a great deal of time to source the exact material the car needed to ensure it was back on the road as soon as possible, given that sourcing a few cruddy hoses from Japan would take weeks due the the tsunami. Power FC shows my water temp stabilised at no more than 70 degrees everywhere I drive. Top work from the boys at Sinergy I say! Now I just have to wait and see what self destructs next :whistling:

It's a 32GTR... You're motor

I hate to be the grammar Nazi, but ffs Heslo you're is the shortening of "you are" .... despite you referring to the ownership of a possession (which would normally involve an apostrophe), "your" is appropriate here. :D Have you grown a pair and decided you are coming to Kadina next weekend? Nice cruise, booze, talking shit, good food and a good ol' country car show - what more can you ask for?

lol.

to excuse heslos grammar, his message is right. if u own a 32 gtr engine ur running a grenade. thankfully i dont run so fast to blow my grenade. but eh, a full forged rebuild should be on any rb26's owners TO DO list if he/she/it has any damn sense. of course we cant all afford to do it asap, but at least start planning for a longnose crank/collar and an oilpump and forged pistons at the very least

Haha you're right! I'm on my phone, autocorrect does funky things. Excuse me :P

um i think the mainline reads wheel figures dont it? or is it already converted pinch.gif

nope. it reported me having 680nm torque @ 250kw on 16psi last time i was there. i was told i should realistically expect 400 odd which was confirmed on another dyno as being 420nm at the rears

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
