What's your dirt bike?

I've got a Jim berry Full monty clutch in mine, it's great, never slips, doesn't make any noise and is really driveable. Never stall it :D

Edited by zoidbergmerc

I have a nice customized plenum, and Andrew at Pro auto said that cars with almost identical mods without the plenum and TB(Q45) typically made less power, and he said it definatly improved flow. mine has a 35r with a .82r

I also run a gizzmo thermal gasket, to stop heat transfer from the head to the plenum, and the plenum stays quite cool.

so there are gains to be had, I did it as a sort a package, highmount mani, 35r, plenum, TB etc.

shorter piping is always a bonus too. I think I reduced it by a metre all up.

and it looks mint =D

I wouldn't be tempted by a cheapo job tho, I'm not a chinese hater but its one thing you dont want to fail. pain to get on and off too. I still had to make a throttle cable bracket and also Mod the water temp senor ports as when the plenum was built it was dummied up on a head with no VCT sensor!, 10 hours of fab later lol. was worth it in the end tho.

1000 for plenum and about 500 for there 85 TB.. ill have to look more into it for wat i need as i keep saying its for looks but.. i dont want to get a shitty cheep that ill need to change later on or that will f**k me around

I dont doubt that for minute with your set up Jack but with a stock 25 neo a FFP as a "first" mod is a waste of money IMO especially if all its for is cosmetics.

yep I agree, took me a few years to get around to it. Ecu, turbo & injectors etc and wayyyyyyy more important that a FFP.

datsuns dont really wake up till you've got a reasonable turbo and supporting gear on there to complete the dish.

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
