I will ask for a Vid but I wont be there, so ?

It is sort of like not going to the birth of your kids, well sort of, I hope it is not as messy, can you imagine all of those left over parts all over the floor, old manifold, injectors, nuts and bolts, you get the idea, but I am sure it will not be quite as good but second best is OK :banana:

You are a special guy!

Ok ok. I will review first.

haha, that will work, BUT can you be trusted :/

If the tune was done last I would have gone down, about 12 hours return, but it is having a pod cover made after the tune, I ask him to do it this way just in case he thinks the Turbo needed changing

Hi Ben, just in case you misunderstood , I went to all of my kids births and could not be any prouder, wonderful experiences, but you can still joke about it :)

The dump pipe,, cooler and intake pipe are being fabricated, then he will welding the twin wastegate positions and then twin plumb back into the dump.

Toss it on the Dyno and if all of the problems have been fixed and worked in together he can do the pod cover, the END! well ???

There's never "the end" but there comes the point where you have to say "enough"! Looking forward to the result.

Yeah Bob,but I "had enough" ages ago but as you know, if it is not right you have to keep going until it is.

After that and the car runs properly , it will be the end as there would be nothing else for me to do for a street car, good response and power , it already has great clutch, Front diff, trannie mods and a 2-Way LSD = HAPPY :)

II would expect to be able to post the Dyno next week and after I drive it home I will be able to say if it what I was after.

Haha! The end....is there such a thing?

For me it's probably the gearbox;

1, R34 Getrag = money I have now

2, OS88 = money if I save up

3, R35 Transaxle = if I win Lotto this weekend!

haha, you are kidding Chris, you will never stop, a quick visit to a bank will get all of your dreams, maybe with note and a gun, LOL

Haha! I like your style Pete.... "Put all the money in the bag, my car needs a new gearbox!"

The 6 Boobs mani looks the biz.

Is that a single layer gasket sitting on there Pete......? Tell however speced that to stop being a cheap bastard and put a good multi layer one on like a Permaseal.

    • 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  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
