love it. flex fuel setup on e85? im using water meth injection on my car. works great with the haltec. seems like the boys down under arent going this route but i can get it for cheap and it keeps my engine parts clean...

I’ll be running on pump fuel for now and then maybe next year set it up for e85.

water/meth kit works wonders mate really cheap stuff that works great.  i dont know about down under there but we have an AEM kit with safety backup and ive been running it solid for years. my opinion better setup than e85 for what its worth.

Can you please send me a link of this item? I’ll have a look and research about it!

here is the base kit from aem...i know its not a down under piece but we use this alot around here on big power 2j's and rb's. keeps your engines valves crazy clean...my nossle is in my manifold. need a flex fuel sensor of some kind obviously haha....can run crazy boost if your motor is built for it with this kit. really cheap stuff too, i buy it at a farm supply shop in town. im sure some guys are gunna say this option isnt safe but it defintily is and works great. tried and tested mate. upgrade to a bigger tank to if you go this route.

Bad news guys.. 

apparently the cams are Stock cams not Jun 272.. I’ve been misled. So I am in need of some drop in cams. 
was thinking of Tomei Type B Poncam 262. Any thoughts? 

Yep keep the stock cams with adjustable gears.

I’m really leaning towards Tomei Poncam Type B 260 9.15lift. Might as well get it done as I’ll be running flexfuel next year means more power. Will need the cams anyways 

UPDATE: 

Painted the inside door jams and boot lid in 326 crystal white colour. today I will be putting the doors and the boot back on before sending the car back to mechanics.

Parts Update - ordered below parts 

-Haltech Platinum Pro (plugnplay)

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
