god damn i want this!!

mad price!

Rb28, -5 turbos (probs change that), seems like a heaps genuine seller, saying it has a couple dings but there getting fixed before sold.

also, found out today im not being kept on for my apprenticeship but i may get a job for the same company but maintaining the locos that ive built for the past year, better hourly rate, and rolling roster between day and arvo shift with 4 10 hour days with the option to work any friday. a bit keen...

yeah ill find out hopefully this week or early next if i get the job as the email and everything has been sent.

dont think im gunna worry about the mines, the casual blokes at my work are on 40 bucks an hour and thats standard for newy, when you think about the distance and then having to rent somewhere in singleton ill either be living rough or saving less money then working in newy and coming home to emma every night.

plus i doubt id get in a mine cause i dont have family in there :S

Saw that. good price....but way down on power for -5's...but it wasn't exactly seeing much boost. Also, don't know where you got the rb28 info from.

.8 sump with baffles??

that not 2.8??

yeah i thought that about boost, would expect 280 atleast

nope just an extended sump. Mine's still a 26 and holds 9L (11L if there's oil in the cooler)

rb26's can suffer from oil starvation. With a combination big G corners, high rpm's and a poor head oil drainage design, the result is that the stock pump can essential empty the sump and thus suck air = no oil for bearings = spun bearing. After market pumps can flow more then 25% higher then stock, so the problem is amplified. The larger sump capacity pretty much eliminates the lack of oil problem and the baffels keep the oil around the pick-up during high-g corners. n1 engines came stock with a higher oil capacity, so nissan was probarly aware of the problem from there racing experince.

ahh i see, fair enough then :P

whats the advantage of a bigger sump??

hey joel hows WA? good to see your still lurking newy :D:D:D

i still check in from time to time :yes: . I'm bored at work and the WA section is dead.

WA's going well. Still haven't found a house yet though...and I'm really missing my tools (their in storage). Hopefully i'll have one by the end of the year and can start to settle in then.

ah right, where are you now then??

id imagine everything to be expensive as!

Work's got me a place in the middle of the city for a few months - it was part of a relocation package. Trouble is, i'm still working up in Port hedland, so i'm never actually in perth to be able to look for houses.

Yeah it's probably about 20%-30% more then newcastle for just about everything. But good city, very social.

I went 4wd on the weekend with a few mates, the old ferroza held up well conwsidering it's completely stock:

    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.

    • sensible choice....and all 32s should be in yellow
    • Run it in open loop for now, and drop the frequency down. This lowers the resolution and requires more duty cycle to do anything, however good to troubleshoot.
