Thanks skyginer.

Looking to paint the car now it's off the road for a bit as the converter ate itself on the weekend so I think I will do a rack and pinion steering conversion e85 and paint job over the next few months.

Gearbox fixed again. New ecu lt16c with flex fuel and dash installed drives and runs smoother than the lt12 that was in it before. Just waiting for a drum of e85 to arrive to finish if the flex tune.

Looks like I might be looking for a bigger turbo now the gearbox is sorted. Lol

I hope it all works for you,

Gearboxes must be getting hard on the pocket and with the extra power comes extra stress on everything.

But it is all part of modifying these things , trying to get it all to work together and hope you have not over done it, haha

Hard not to try and get what you want from your ride without going that little bit further to get it :)

Lucky for me the guys at mv in Adelaide have covered most of the cost under warranty. No chance of being over it yet. If it was easy everyone would be doing it that's what I keep telling myself anyway. Lol

Been a while since any updates. Retune with 6boost and new cooler pipes was 350kw on 16psi. Car is apart finishing r31 rack conversion as no one can rebuild the steering box. Also modifying the rear control arm mounts to make them adjustable. Will add photos over the next month.

    • No, so what happened is. I put a bunch of filler then I sanded it all down, I removed all the filler (unintentionally), then I put the epoxy primer on because that section of the panel is bare metal. The car is parked outside so I needed to protect it in the meantime incase it rains.
    • It’s definitely an import, the Aussie ones have reflectors in the rear bar, it’s also a turbo which none of the Aussie one were.    I remember back in the day I want a twin turbo z32 so bad and then I saw a 32 gtr and that was the end of that lol 
    • Same can be said for Subarus motors ha ha!   I like the 300ZX, I nearly bought a Z32 before I bought my first Skyline. It was going to be a project. Then I found out there was a bit of a dodgy title with it... As in, someone attempted to commit insurance fraud with it and there was now some dodgy legalities around it. So at 18 I walked away from it.
    • The below is what the readings I had with the fuel pressure gauge which were correct. It seems like the issue is mainly during drive and not idle. I bought the new hanger hoping it could be the issue, perhaps I ruined something while cleaning, but I have not installed it yet since I have to wire up everything with the new plugs.
    • Actually, that's not entirely true. It's also the same motor in the 1st gen Nissan Cube but they're rare as hen's teeth.
