Nothing better than a present at work. 2x Nismo GT Pro 1.5 way LSDs. 
 

Want to thank JHH for their help with this one. Specially Will. Honest advice from past experience. 
 

now these can go in the sump, sump on the engine, engine in the car, some fabbing, some tuning and maybe I’ll see this thing this year yet.

Hello. So had a few things happen since the last update. Diffs are now installed. Gearbox, clutch and engine are all together and in the car. Did a test fit on the Turbo. Looked amazing but has shown that a few lines will need to be relocated. 
 

still need to install all the wiring and EGT.  Install fuel system. Connect all of the oil and water lines. Fab intercooler pipework and exhaust  

 

then fire it up tune, run in and retune

Hello. Things seem to be moving in the right direction. Diffs are in, sump is on obviously. Timing belt is on and cams are set to “0”.
 

now it’s fabrication time. Intercooler piping. Exhaust. Oil/water/fuel lines and the last of the electrical hookup.
 

I’m hoping to see it on the road in the next couple of months.

Hello.

Manifold has been sent off for ceramic coating. No ETA.
 

In the mean time I have placed a deposit on a pair of 1600hp rated rear CV from Crank Motorsport. Should be here in September. 
 

also bought a single piece AlphaOmega 2000hp aluminium tail shaft. That one should be here next week. Apparently it’s about half the weight and makes quite a significant difference in engine response. 
 

that should be the driveline all sorted.

Hello. Well it’s been an up and down few weeks. Everything was going well. Parts arriving and fitting (always a bonus). Ran into an issue with the clutch booster. JUN intake GT plenum is huge. We got the boost delete kit and it was still touching. So that’s getting machined but it’s not a huge issue.
 

tail-shaft arrived after we genuinely thought it was lost in transit. That was very nice. Then things turned very frustrating. We got to the part where we were hours away from starting the car only to find that the fuel rail had 11mm holes and my injectors are 14mm. So now we are waiting for a new one. But it will be purple this time to match the rest of the dress up colour scheme. 
 

baring any further issues, car should be started next week. Then it’s getting it engineered and licensed. Might even get to do some running in before a leave for Japan. Will be going to Osaka and Tokyo. Won’t have too much time to my self but I will visit some workshops. JUN is definitely on the cards.

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
