Same here, car tucked in the shed, get to it next year. 

Just makes me sad seeing all my new engine bits sitting there :(

Don't worry man, good things take time. Took me 1.5  years to build my motor and now there's a leak with the sump, probably be another 1.5 years till I fix that.

Decided to start getting things ready and removed the e85 out of it7061CE44-D40E-4BE8-BCCE-82F520FB3D91.thumb.jpeg.e5d3553913d0345cbef43097f3ce07db.jpeg

ive sold the e85 cause by the time I’m done it will probably be stale anyway 

i threw 20L of 98 in it and started it up 6B0BFA23-FB46-4ED2-9E71-469E8C7004F1.thumb.jpeg.78cc3b2c3f94dba4a67dd58450735367.jpegit’s now showing 5% ethonal so hopefully once I throw another 20L or so in there it should come close to zero

 

ps. 98 exhaust fumes f**king stink

We bought a new house and moved into it over Xmas, here is its current temporary living quartersE0DC9F37-483B-4567-9FF3-2E0F84B20D44.thumb.jpeg.7f261ed209484e0b16f66b23b0deb67e.jpeg

i sold the splitfire coils to a mate who had a set fail on him, currently has a set of old oem ones in there that don’t work but of corse will be getting upgraded. 

I have started ordering part for the new build and while waiting for the new workshop to be built and hopefully will have a hoist in it

Care to share the input file?

We couldn’t push the power any further last time it was tuned because even slightly more boost caused surge issues, I just think it’s couldnt get enough air out anymoreAC949C54-3041-41C6-9C43-61DA8F800D65.thumb.jpeg.594d858466b02fa4745891ccdbe07d0e.jpegWhich means out comes the exhaust cam

with the vcam taking all the over lap out the idle is still smooth but has a much deeper note and is a bit louder

And off come the turbos, you can see here the rear one has been spewing oil and explains why last time I changed the oil it was pretty low 1D1C9C3A-FFE9-443D-A383-A8D8F4072190.thumb.jpeg.d9c6683baa815792536522cdf365927b.jpegfront one out againE4899F5F-30BF-4855-A47D-D31C58EDF3FA.thumb.jpeg.dd9e52e262f76216f1fe05a5fa65426f.jpegand both gone530F6885-0959-421C-9FAE-A39E18C7C387.thumb.jpeg.34fc22075e3446d8f11008c086bc3107.jpegtook the cam cover back off just give myself more room for screwing around

    • Yeah good luck out there! Will be good to see a mighty GTST going harder than the GTRs
    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
