Well, just got my liner tuned by Mercury Motorsport in Brisbane and I must say I am extremely happy with the results !!! Pulled an overall figure of 242.1kw on 1.2 bar (332.6hp). Car made more horsepower than I first thought it would which made my day !! Added a couple of pics just for viewing ...

If anyone needs work done in Brisbane, I highly recommend Mercury, so a BIG thanks to Trent and the team.

Also, a MASSIVE thanks to Garth from Kaos Racing and my best mate Matt, without them I couldn't have gotten the car to where it is today at all !!

Oh yeah, just a small listing of things that are done:

Apex 260deg Cams

Greddy Plenum

Infinity Throttle Body

Greddy 'Cooler

Z32 AFM

Apex AX53B70 380ps turbo on standard manifold

Nismo 550cc/min injectors

Nismo Fuel Pressure Reg

RS*R 3.5" Exhaust

OS Gieken Twin Plate Clutch

Apex Power FC

Greddy Oil Catch Can

Blitz Dual SBC Spec S

Blood sweat and tears ... :)

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
