Spotted this in Tokyo Last Week, it was down the road from where they were setting up Tokyo Motor Fest, so it may have been there for that, unfortunately I was flying out the next day. It was driving

Does there have to be a challenge? Why cant a thread, or section be started for modelling, just like there is a photography section in SAU forum already and models as they turn up completed can be shown off.

When I was at school we had a modellers club and weekly competitions, which I entred none. Rushing modelling is a recipe for disaster in my opinion.

So if I was to jump on the next challenge with one of my PJR DR's, I'm sure you would be happy knowing they are already on the way huh!

Fair point, what is the general consensus? Just make it a thread? This makes sense to me. Wife, kids, and too many cars doesn't leave much time, even over two or three months.

Sure thing - just a thread is fine. I'm just very prone to laziness unless feeling competitive is all!

Maybe you can have the honour of being the first exhibitor with your just finished C210 and then we can see what follows eh?

My obsession continues with the purchase of another C210 series Nissan Skyline

1981 MGC211 (MGC210 plated) 2400GT-C2 aka australian spec series 2 with air, steering, 4 speaker stereo and power windows.

Downside is that Headgasket is blown badly, but dropped to mechanics today so should be good.

Also blown head is nothing to sort out. Just be sure it really is the head, and not a pin hole in your timing cover/welsh plug behind timing cover etc. An clean unbroken head gasket will be a bit of a giveaway that there is something else afoot dumping water in your oil.

correct^ head will cost too much to fix.

I'm reconning one of my N47 heads to put on it

now i was told to use the exhaust manifold from the N47 cause it would better suit it?

is that true

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?

      Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
