it will help if you clearance a little of the tinwork around the reverse lockout fitting on the LHS of the box as it gets very close to the body. Alternatively, just leave it out and get rid of the whole reverse lockout mechanism. Just need to plug up the whole with the right bolt/fitting ;)

I'm heading out there today. I'll see how they're going. :D

Found this on the LS1 forum:

Set your base pressure at 43, boost to 30. Flow at the pump will be abouyt 125Gph = 473lt/h = 7.8lt/min.

There is the culprit. The tooth fairy was good, bought me a OS88 instead of a few bucks. Winner!

Old and new. Evidence of an exhaust leak on the 5 speed.

Modified transfer case.

Both Nitto 1 and its OS88, and one other R34 that ran a Hollinger up here in Cairns used a custom spec NPC twin plate, setup to handle over 1100hp. Basically what I have in my car, with a different type of spring hub centre. So when you get tired of it, you know where to go. Price was reasonable too.$2920.

Day of nothing yesterday. A sub station up the road went up in smoke and the whale was up on the hoist higher than the gearbox jack could reach. Lol.

Took back my old transfer case to Award as it was on exchange basis. Awesome guys at Award, Trish and Terry. Highly recommended!!

That was that.

Looking at fuel pumps, I found this bad boy.

720L/hour at 3 bar and 560 ish at 75 psi. I'm sick of dicking around with 044's that just don't last. It will also cover me for any future turbo changes/upgrades... *cough* :D. It's E85 friendly also.

Pump looks the works, know anyone that have used them ?

Glad to see you are looking ahead, if you decided to change your turbo, what do you have in mind. I thought your car was pretty well balanced as it is but maybe a new age Turbo could make it even better :)

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
