More that I was asking about the engine pushing water.

Oh last time I went roll racing the engine lifted the head and started pushing water out the over flow on boost 

Adam is a gun, you’re in good hands. PPG does not have provisions for reverse lights so they won’t work. You still have the switch on the outside of the box, but there’s nothing internally to trigger it. 
this is what I was told, after the PPG was fitted! Lol 
You will be amazed how fast it shifts compared to a synchro box.  

I trust Adam and he’s kind of close to home which is great. 
 

There’s no external switch on mine but on the gear indicator box there’s a wire marked reverse light +ve and I’m assuming that triggers the reverse lights,

I drove it on the jack stands to make sure all the gears were there and the neutral lock was working correctly. Guess is should pull it off the stands

What cams are you using? 

I’m in 2 minds on what I want to do for the cams, mainly revolving around weather to keep the vcam or not 

It’s definitely seen that way and does add plenty of low down torque and response, but if I’m going to do this much to the head and etc, do I take full advantage of the extra flow and get some cams in there with plenty of lift?

Yeah, tough decision, but if you got it, probably best to stick with the V cam? If you want more flow, strap a bigger turbo to it 😁👍🏼

I did have someone recommend a 6870 but the 6466 is lots of fun and still has a lot more to give

64/66 is perfect, with the V cam would be quite responsive as well, perfect set up, just fix the head and turn it up! 
what power did you last make? 
I can get you a drive in a GTR with a 64/66 turned all the way up and backed by a PPG sequential if you want an idea of what it’s capable of. Just shoot me a pm if you’re interested.

It made 465 at 27psi according to the dyno sheet but the run finished at 6,600rpm due to a cooler hose popping so would be making a bit more at 8,000. 

id be keen on that, I’ll flick you a pm by this afternoon

Regrind the vcam? Best of both worlds

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
