Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

Because they are waaaaay to big.



You won't get any shit from me about ls1 in a skyrine Nick. Living it Gayton tho, that's another story.



A mate had a NA zed, spent many, many thousands doing a vh45 conversion (and 2 years). Sounded awesome but was still slow. So he pulled that out and went vgTT. Cheaper and faster.



Since parted it out and is now talking m3CSL or lotus

That actually makes sense, but why not a more modern Nissan v8 engine?

They don't lope around like cammed up LS's do.

And the other reason was I just simply didn't want one, I don't know anything about the motors whereas info on ls building is plenty full and parts are cheap.

And to me nothing sounds better than a big cube natro v8 screaming up near the redline or shaking around at idle :jizz:

Haha aww but mike it's no fun unless it annoys people lol.

And that's the other thing the quad cams are massive same as with the 5.4 boss motors in falcoons

What about cost and time taken to make swap though?

Yep same idea as old bud that did the 1uz swap into a supra. He came to a happy laps with us once and the thing sounded sooo tuff like an f1 v8 mix. So I was naturally a little hesitant of lining him up, but when play time was over and I got a run down the straight with him I had about 3 1/2 car lengths over the start finish line and mines dead stock apart from the exhaust and the built box

Up near redline at 4500rpm lol

Yeah mates vh45 had extractors (custom so they fit lol) and exhaust and nistune and it would've had about 200rwkw.

Took about 6 months start to finish which I didn't mind cause I was on my ps still anyway and I'd just blown up my gearbox so the car was just sitting there.

Cost wise, it's only money... And the attention it gets and the "WTF is in that thing" reaction when people hear it fire up is just priceless.

Yer mines just got a custom extractors a crappy mail mafless order tune and basically a 3inch straight pipe and a dirty pod filter sucking like a 2 dollar whore off the intake pipe lol. Through my auto with the bigger stall I'd imagine id only have about 200rwkw....

For now

You still running stock cams Nick?

A friend of friend had massive cams in his. Was so bad that in top gear on highway at 110 he got chopped by a stock telstar lol

Top gear roll ons of course ;)

Yer stock everything man, the motor in this trims days are numbered ;)

It's to fast to only have 180, I was chopping cars up around the 230-240kwkw mark at the drags

youve lost a lot of weight in that engine. plus you have more torque, that engine will be running like shit with a mail order tune and your bolt ons.... i have the hsv ls1, standard cats tho, with otr and full tune and that only cranks 230 atw.... manual.

alright maybe you have 190....

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
