And this is where we finished up on 10psi boost, the difference is amazing it pulls much harder now.

Silver mate,

The last few months iv just been taking the car out for a few late night missions and drives out in the country.

For not having a wheel alignment the thing drove pretty damn well, but I have recently fitted some Partshop max solid rear subframe bushes and got it a decent wheel alignment

The gearbox is in desperate need of some new bearings.

Im planning on taking it to powercruise at Taupo motosport park in November, so im borrowing a gearbox of a mate and spending the next montho or so getting the car 100% ready for the track.

Helped assembly a friends RB27dett on the weekend.

Alrite its been a while.... a long while... so ill try make this atleast a half decent post.

So far the R32 has survived another event so ill share that with everyone, a totally awesome day out drifting with the Zokusha Worx crew

Well the morning didn't start so great, just driving the car to line up the engine didn't feel or sound right.

Out on the track it was cutting out, feeling underpowerd and pretty much just driving me crazy.

I spent most of the morning trying to fix it tighting up everything checking every sensor and connection, in the end it seems it was the main ECU connector that needed a slight tweak and by about 11:30 it was all go and I could start getting some decent drifting in.

The track was Taupo Track 3 the back section of Taupo Motorsport park.

So since trackday i have purchased and fitted some 750cc injectors removing the standard items, i have also opend up the wastegate ports inside the exhaust manifold to fix the boost creep problem, the goal is 300kw (402hp)

A few things out of shape after trackday..

Removed the exhaust manifold & gave it to a mate to open up the w/g ports

Also an update on the old mans R34, i spent a bit of time making a new trubo setup for this and it all worked out pretty well.

started off with 1 new exhaust manifold from Sinco Customs

And with Mike from Diesel & turbocharger services tuning the nistune ecu we stopped at 14psi with it droping off to 11psi until I sorted the boost issue, now with a flatish 14~15psi we have 260kw at the wheels with the Revs shooting up from 3500rpm.

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • 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)
