From my much more modest experience with a basic RB30 I would say there is no way the 3.2 could not be a great daily driver even with 400 or 500awkw if tuned appropriately. I agree 1000 injectors would give you a little margin ... those 700s could well get maxed out on E85

I'd say you'll be needing bigger injectors than those peanut 700's, Pete. Especially if you're going to flex tune it.

I have just emailed the shop and asked what injectors are in the car, maybe a higher rating or he is changing them , I will try and find out tomorrow.

I doubt they would stuff it up over changing the injectors if they need changing, but ????

Yes definitely upgrade injectors I ran out of fuel at 470rwkws on ID1000s on E85. They are cheap and will save you a re-tune

I cannot imagine them not upgrading these if they need it, as I said , I do not know what was put in there when they did the original build, the bloke spent over $50k including Z-tune body set, but I think Advan used a copy bonnet but I could not get them to verify the parts bought from them, including the Nismo 2-way LSD??

So I am in the dark on a few things but trying to sort it out :/

Power will depend on boost level really, but a responsive 400awkws sounds about right to me :yes:

700s will be ok for 400 on 98, not so good on E85 :(

Not sure what injectors are in the car, they could be 1000cc , waiting on an answer from CRD. They are installing the flex fuel system so they now the injectors will have to handle the E85, so ?

When I spoke to Jim about building the 3.2 he said that a torquey 400awkw on pump would be a nice street car and would give me what I want.

He said if I ever wanted to turn up the wick, big HPs can be obtained, but like everything, more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$s have to pass hands, yes , from mine to ?

I was going to buy a GTR, but did not like them, I wanted a car that made me feel like I was driving it , 8 years in an auto was enough , but a TT 350GT auto can be a lot of fun.

What I will get from this build should be more than what I need, but I will enjoy what I use :)

Just had a look on your pictures. You have blue caps. I BELIEVE. Those light blue ones are Sard 700's.

Same colour as in this for sale thread.

I know what you mean Luke, glad I am not young anymore (joke) maybe we can bolt in a jet motor soon, haha

On the sad side, no pics :yucky:

Has the build come to an end :woot:

Fn hope not :unsure:

Just have a feeling they were 700s

I will try to get an answer and that is like pulling fn teeth

Yes , yes, you blokes were right .

It is like they hold your car hostage , photos are like getting a Video of your love one proving they are still alive but you have to pay and take a chance to get them back in good condition :(

I am sure this post will not help my situation but I am at a point were I do not give a fark!

The Mushroom :rant:

So long as they're not sending you single nuts by mail, you'll be ok.

They send nothing, a nut would be good, so looks like it could get nasty , hope not, but shit happens :)

The trouble is they read all of this shit and I get the blame for what other blokes have said, the worst thing is, you blokes were right :/

So here we are, drive line was going in and communication has stopped, farking cars :verymad:

I think I will trade the Tiida in so I can get another fun car, 4 door something and I do not give a shit how long it takes :)

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
