So i spent some time tonight moving the now largely useless loom from the passenger side engine bay into the gaurd.

This connector was part of it. Does anyone know what it does? Does it need to be plugged in?

Seems to lead to the wheel hub. Is it an abs or awd thing?

I looked this up at one point on my own car and yes I'm fairly sure it was the abs sensor

Yeah i think so also. Have extended the loom on the sensor and connected it up where it needs to go. All good, was lazy for a second lol

How are you travelling with the build, can’t be much left now?

Mechanical work is done. Fab work done recently by a friend. Work was top notch. Custom baffled catch can and battery mount, bracket for power steering reservoir, intake pipe and dump pipe with vbands, gate pipe welded up etc

2018-05-01_08-23-41

Got the manifold, dump, rear housing, gate pipe ceramic coated.

After i got everything back i got busy at home. Braided oil and water lines, braided wastegate hoses, moved wiring into the gaurd, sorted out power steering hoses.

A while back i wired up the io box with flex, oil press, fuel press, boost solenoid, map sensor, wb1 controller kit so thats all sorted.

Cranked it over last night. engine eventually started for a few seconds before the wife came in and was forced to shut it down. Guess i shouldny really be starting it at 10pm with the newborn sleeping diredtly above the garage!

After i actually get it idling ill send it in for tuning. Not long now.

Awesome result, what boost are you pushing through it?
You’re going to have your hands full when it’s on boost

Thats on 32psi only. Can push it further but need a heavier wastegate spring.

So managed to get 1 run in at wsid before they cancelled the night got cancelled. 10.8 @ 140mph.

Will try and get back out there and better the time. Launch was messy at 1.8 60ft.

Overall ecstatic. 10s first pass. No prep. Decided i was going to race at 6pm after i finished work. Didnt even check tyre pressures or oil level. Opened the garage and drove to the track. With 140mph, theres heaps of room to improve the time.

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
