Yep, hahaha, but if I have no luck finding it then i guess that's what I have to do

Anyone know which headers I should get for my 300GT?

I have a mate in the states that had Momentum headers on his G35 but he has since taken it off and parted it out cause he bought a G37. He did say they were good but not sure :/

Plenum spacer, Crank Pulley w/ new belts, Throttle Body Spacer installed today!

By the RevZone guys, took them approximately 7 hours (They said there was issues with taking off the EGR belt), they've also cleaned up my plenum, apparently was the worst build up they've ever seen.

Paid $616, they repaired my plenum threads and studs, topped up my coolant and apparently I had a leak in my cooling system, all fixed up now, idles so much better!

Next mod will be the KuRookie front bar and NisRookie sides then finally some BC racing coils!

Remove and replace crank pulley (owner supplied)

Repair intake plenum threads and studs

Pressure clean intake plenum

Bleed cooling system

Martini V-series Type A Coolant

Yeah, I had the same issue, otherwise I would of done it myself and saved some $$, not quite a mechanically minded person though, still learning hahah

Cleaned the throttle body yesterday and having high rpm issues on start up, roughly 2000 then drops to 800 and bounces up to 1400 and back down to 650, also random rpm spikes when foot is off the accel while driving, going to try the relearn process soon.

Can anybody confirm if the crank pulley in this combo will fit on my VQ30DD?

Having trouble finding the recommended spark plug for my 300GT 'NGK LFR5AQP'

However the 'LFR5AIX-11' is available on CZP but their not recommended for the 300GT.. but the 250GT and 350GT uses this spark plug..

This is driving me nuts! Too less info on the 300GT :(

I’m going to assume you unplugged the throttle body from the car. bummer i haven't been on the forum for a while. if you unplug it you have to do the relearn procedure or it will act up as you said. i clean my throttle body every second service and all i do is get some carby cleaner and remove the 4 intake, then unscrew the 4 bolts that hold it down (make sure not to lose the mettal wassher ) get a microfibre cloth and clean the throttle body and the little butterfly inside it. ( all this without disconnecting it from the car.and have a read of the G35 forums as there's heaps of info on the matter: http://g35driver.com/forums/g35-sedan-v35-2003-06/402719-how-i-fixed-my-throttle-body-after-cleaning.html

      They care about emissions, and cost the most. Save weight where possible, and make manufacturing easier. Less material also let's the engine transfer heat to water quicker, and bring the engine up to temp quicker, better for emissions and getting them past their warranty period.

      I was under the impression the reason why OEMs are going with solutions like relatively thin "right-sized" cylinder walls with technologies like PTWA and open deck is because they care a lot about whatever marginal knock margin benefits they get from that vs the structural rigidity benefits of a closed deck block and thicker cylinder walls. I also see some weird stuff like plastic inserts in the water jacket around the cylinders to try and equalize cylinder wall temperatures. re: the PRP blocks and heads at the end of the day it's hard to know what is and isn't going to work there, just have to see what the initial buyers say about it.

      Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?

      https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild.

      Yeah very valid point. I am waiting for one of the other tuners to come back from vacation so he can help me a bit when the cat is installed again. In the meantime I am going to finish up my polishing and ceramic coating that I have started myself.    N45 Dr Beasley product is highly recommended for a paint primer / polisher. Using this EXO Gtechniq also for the ceramic but next time might use the light serum before hand also. Looks great.
