Best mod i did was removing boot mounted twin 044 surge tank setup and replacing it with twin nismo intanks. No noise no smell operated like a factory fuel system.

Not worried about the noise , the Walbro is pretty quiet and they are intank ,If there is smell problem , there will be a surge tank for sale :)

Steve , any petrol smell with the Nuke ???

Thanks Steve, I could not find very much info on the Nuke Surge Tank but they looked pretty well made and using the Walbros was a plus.

Did you mount yours in the boot ?

Yep in the boot. No fumes as yet

Aeroflow 250 series black braided Teflon hose or similar is the product to use.

Right side puts the surge tank in front of the Attessa reservoir. If you don't mind having to remove the surge tank to check the reservoir, then great.

I think I will go the drivers side, depending on the size I might not have to move it to check the reservoir. I think when it arrives it will give us a better idea.

The other side has the jack and tools and allows a bit more luggage space. Sort of wish I put it under the car and if I have any problems that is what I will do.

Mine is in a r30 and its on the right side with Teflon braid. I used bulkhead fillings through the floor

not that it will make any difference but what did the Teflon braided cost for the job, just wondering the price difference between that and a cheaper alternative ?

Still going in tomorrow Pete?

Yes Mark , leave here around 4am , get a train and a bus back home and it just about drops me at my door, only $35 as to $400 getting to and from the Sydney shop , even though I flew to Sydney 1 Hr, 40min to the airport , they want you there an hour before the flight, 2 trains and get picked up at the station , it is about the same time :)

After he drops me off I think he will do a dyno run to have a look and be able to have a back to back comparison after the work is done.

Jez did mine and I can't smell shit. it's in the boot taking up space

Can still fit a few slabs of beer in so all good

He is going to use quality lines and I am sure it will be no problem

haha, couple of slabs would get you through Saturday :)

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
