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.

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.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
