hello all,

Haven't been involved with this forum in along time, my car hasnt moved in along time aswell.

Due to a company car the stags gone to Sh!t been sitting round the back yard not moving and the bonnets flaked. It got so bad i had to bug bomb the interior to get rid of all the spiders and spray bug spray all over the outside. On a plus side i managed to get some charge into the battery and got her fired up .... she still doesnt miss a beat and still sounds as sweet as the day i got the emanage ultimate tuned.

I'm going to be building her up back to her former glory, and while this is all going on im going to be making another move to huntervalley, hope there are a few of you guys up that way. Things im going to be doing will be suspension, paint, turbo upgrade, interior re-trim, possibly an engine rebuild, oh and i have a dayz body kit sitting in my shed will probly get this fitted before the paint job.

Mods i have already were simple ones

wheels

grill

FMIC

pod

trust cat back

gizzmo IEBC

Greddy emanage ultimate

bigger AFM

sound system

baby seat

160 @ all 4's not massive gains but better then stock.

any way watch this space, I hope I can bring you guys some great ideas and pictures. (The first pictures ill post up will be of the sad state she is in now.)

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.

      Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
