got a reaper up top of my arm, started on my sleeve, still have 6 hours ahead just to finish the shading on him, but hey be worth it :D

after this is done in next fortnight focus is back on car parts again haha

On builds just acquired all my parts required to finish off my first stage of engine mods..

Doing decent service on it before ebc, cam gears and tune happens next month... Heaps keen!

What EBC did you end up going with or still deciding?

Do you still need those cam gears Ant?

what else do you need for your future -9 upgrade? i have a few parts lining around (new injectors, can prob get you my old(but new) vipec ecu cheap too)

Hey mate, don't need the cam gears anymore sorry mate, ended up getting some new tomei ones for a really good price, they turned up today.

Ah roughly for the -9 upgrade would be adding:

Turbos obviously ha

Different ecu

Injectors and pump

Clutch

Think that's about it, kinda gong/hoping for a simple but effective build.

Yea those parts sound interesting mate if they would suit the above?

What about oil pump for oil starve ant??

Don't you need lots of supporting mods in a gtr?

Yea havent looked into whats required for oil etc yet too much, i know there will probably be a few little extra supporting mods to do when the build happens.. but at this stage mainly concentrating on whats required to make my power goal, then go from there as its still quite a way off.

Not sure if i need to go crazy with it though as its not a track car, if i was making it for track then yea i would go crazy with that stuff.

Simply, but effective build list

The nismo injectors are 600cc - perfect for that power range unless your going e85. Also, I lied - It's a link G4 ecu not a vipec (essential the same) that i gave to Paul - i'll ask him if interested in selling it

100,000km service wouldn't hurt either.

Crazy - Nitto/Tomei pump, cam baffels, 8-9L race pan, race pan baffles/gates, oil restrictors turbo/head, catch can, oil cooler

moderate - billet gear replacement, sump baffels, catch-can, oil cooler, 1L overfill

basic - n1 pump, sump baffels, 1L overfill

cheers for the info mate, will send you a pm regarding parts etc..

    • when you say spring pressure.. I would have thought the ideal control mode for these would be a very light spring and a 4 port solenoid feeding both sides of the actuator. enough to close it when no boost is present and thats about it. You don't have exhaust manifold pressure as part of the mechanical feedback loop like a regular poppet valve does. however, the control strategy for a butterfly valve is a bit more complex than just holding a PWM value. or a % position for the e-gate. a poppet valve self regulates due to exhaust manifold pressure on the valve face, these balanced butterfly valves do not, so feeding boost to an actuator is only half of the normal wastegate control equation.  you really need an exhaust manifold pressure correction on the output (either measured or simulated) to have it stable.   but still, that is a lot of creep. whats the runner off the manifold look like?
    • I'd be using your approach if I had the light. Some measuring, get some vernier calipers, measure, draw, make another one as a slightly smaller hole and start cutting.
    • Hi guys really sorry if its a silly question, but im trying to figure out if a r33 gtr front reinforcement bar will fit on a r33 gtst series 1. Need it for road worthy but also wanted to get the gtr one as I wont need to cut the reo when I upgrade my fmic apparently? TIA!!
    • For a more simple method you could look into Dakota Digital and see if their cruise control retrofit kit would work on the stag.
    • In which case I still think my approach would be just as easy. In fact, easier, because of all that guidance on the front side.
