Awesome Benny - love it!

 Thanks mate, good to see you're still keeping an eye on the build!!

Interestingly, the boost controller read 729ps, which must have been before the Prostock build.

The boost controller is now being chucked in the bin in lieu of a MAC VALVE

I can only assume the owner eventually sold it as he realised not having that much power wasn't for him.

I think down the road, we'll all be seeing a big EFR strapped to this lead sled.

Of course - haven't been around much lately - got some work stuff I'm dealing with - but I'm subscribed to your thread as I love the car.....

I'll be posting soon - have a potential project in the garage (car that I imported when I got mine for a guy that has come back to me) ;)

Can't keep both ... so we'll see what happens....

TRP Rigoli have finished working their magic, the don mega fuel system full of their custom bits is done & so is their custom crank trigger setup.

This should pepper the car nicely ready for EFR life down the track....

Fuel system and crank trigger bits look good, I also thought that looked like an angle grinder job lol

What's up with all the filth and surface rust in your bay? Consider removing engine when you do the turbo swap and cleaning it all up. will lift the car a lot. 

Slideshow was severely lacking Benny, no dyno runs, no drive bys, no tacho hitting red line etc. Actually... no video content at all 0_0

Image result for son i am disappoint

I was talking about the pic that shows the holes coming through near the subframe but somehow thought that was an engine bay shot? WTF lol

What's the plan for the surface rust underneath gonna clean/paint it all up? Would look amazing done. 

Are they actual bulk head fittings or was there just a hole cut through the sheet metal?

 

Lol hmmm No plans to address surface rust there. If I was buying a car I’d rather see it....As soon as something gets painted over I would think the worst. 

I need to bring the car into the 21st century with more mechanical mods first anyway. Despite the fact the car hasn’t been tuned yet, I’m already saving my pennies for an EFR8374 or EFR8474 setup. 

I also thought Dan had lost his mind... 
The surface rust isn't bad, but i'd be keeping an eye on it, just in cases.

The longer you leave surface rust the longer it gets the chance to become deep rust. 

Get it cleaned up, painted over, and seal the metal from the elements to prevent further rust. 

 

It also concerns me, you said this was all rebuilt in 2016, yet there is surface rust in a few pictures underneath it. 

My POS has less surface rust under it and it sat in a field, on a farm, for the past 2 years, and also went 1.8M under water in a flood during that time, not to mention just sitting around for years. I'm wondering what the rebuild hid or more so, it's life after the rebuild. Crazy salt roads?

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
