Nick, I don't know man. I said 6 weeks... 6 weeks ago. Can't be too much longer. I've lost a little motivation at the moment but I'm sure that will change when the engine is 2 meters in the air!

Sounds like you better fit a set of wheelie bars son.

I think this thread needs to be locked if action isn't taken soon

You take that back! :P

ATM i'm waiting on everyone else.

Yavuz has one of my JUN cams, have recieved a call for the engine/order head gasket (as we dont know what size we will need) and "balance tube" is in Japan being tickled.

Hurry up dammit!

Just waiting on the engine guys. Head gasket arrives this week.

Had a few things sprayed black. Surge tank, Nismo plenum and AFM blanking plates.

Other than that, nothing to report. Once the engine gets back it will be on like donkey kong :D

  • 3 weeks later...

Still waiting the phone call for the engine. Yavuz has one of my JUN cams for a little bit of "R&D". More on this later on :D

However a Precision 6466 CEA Twin Scroll 0.84 got ordered today. Didn't see that coming hey mate ;). Nor did I two weeks ago! Haha

will be interesting to see how the 6466 goes on the 2.8. Should be fun :yes:

Well seeing how well the 6262 went on Jez's standard 2.6... That first full power run on the dyno is gonna be a damn interesting!

Are you going single turbo setup up?

It's the smallest twin scroll there is.

you can fnd one that will may fit . 0.58 0.70 0.74 they are not made by precision.

keep in mind these turbo's need big boost to work as the comp housing AR are high.

Also what manifold will be using ??

Didn't see that coming hey mate ;). Nor did I two weeks ago! Haha

i no its making me sad : (

i loved the idea of a factory engine bay and exhaust with 450kw.........

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
