A bit of a pictorial wrap up of the first round of the Nulon Nationals at SMSP. Held on a wet skid pan, it's a Motorsport event that pits 9 forum based car clubs against each other in club level Motor

And here is some in car footage of the day, showing the wheel work required for such tight courses! Sorry for my fat melon being all over the pics

Stagea's paint looks bloody good Alex. Nice to see some more pics from the Stagea meet. Scrolled down for more, only to be greeted with the red crusty that fouls up this thread

M35 does have a factory Bov. Similar or same as gtr Bosch units.

Hay, where is it, I couldn't find it on my car. Got a picture?

My engine bay is one page back.

thanks.gif

I assumed he was asking about a nm35 when he said v35 , since no v35's are factory turbo.

"Yes but what are you saying? "

I was simply pointing out he could use a GTR bov as a cheap option if he didnt have one.

Between the intercooler and AFM and plumbed back to the bend just after the mushroom.

Pipe goes right underneath so pretty easy.

yup....so why haven't you done it on the V35 yet? :P So are you saying to cut into the HKS cast alloy pipe?....I'm not sure Alex will want to do that and any further up the pipe might affect the AFM signal!

He likes the flutter.

I'm a bit at a loss as to where to put a BOV. We all know that if you vent to atmos, it makes you a phag, as well as messes up the AFM readings, BUT, thats with the AFM just after the air filter. With an AFM all the way near the TB, I don't know what effect positioning will have? I have to qualms about drillin the pipe - if it stops compressor surge! ATM its not effecting me much, cause I'm not putting the boot in!

Might wait a couple of weeks, and have a look at the HKS 350z that should be coming on a cruise. I think he has a BOV.

I'd put the BOV on the underside of the pressure side pipe; just in front of the throttle body. This keeps everything out of sight.:ph34r:

You could then pick up the turbo intake pipe directly below; weld a nipple in at a 30 deg angle, providing a nice merge into the intake pipe. Better yet; weld your nipple into the intake pipe so you get straight shot at the compressor wheel.

Its a great idea Dale, but there is stuff all room there. I'm running about 4 or 5 hoses in the area already.

What I really need to know is does it matter being before or after the AFM?

Just sorted out the front bar, that fits on nicely now, and also fixed up a little wastegate issue. Tomorrow I'm going to chuck it back up on the hoist and check for leaks. Also hope to mount up my trans cooler, fit some long lost swaybar bushes, and make sure everything is tight, and also take some pics

Question to you guys - What do you want to see photos of? Is there anything in particular, or I'll just take some general snaps of the whole thing?

Fair enough; sometimes hard to gauge space in pics. :blush: Hadn't thought about the AFM position; but you won't be feeding it unmetered air so it should be fine.

Good to hear it's all working well; must be encouraging.:thumbsup: You STILL haven't fitted those swaybar bushes?:blink: Me either; lol...

Pics; LOTS of pics.

Bushes went missing for about 10 months or so... the Mrs "filed" them. I came across them in the Garage about a fortnight ago! Couldn't believe my luck rolleyes.gif

Copy that on the pics....

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
