no probs Micko - glad u both had a good time :) hope me and my friends didnt scare her :D

Ken my last job was 19K and i was miserable in that the 35K makes a job so much more bearable - its not sooo mucht he job but the environment - hehe but revenge is mine - my supervisor was told he had to go down from a level 6 to a level 2 - the same level as me hehe - actually as of june 30 they pretty much have all new staff in that place - that will probably count me as gone as well

Yep Ken, got the mines ecu in. Was using the stocker before that though.

Should have the car on the dyno Wed night if steve can fit me in so we can see what the a/f ratio is like.

Car goes pretty good now methinks. Worth having the aftermarket dial in the car now;)

In that case , theres the problem. I would say the fuel ratio will be a bit rich as the japs like a lot of fuel and timing.

Cheers

I owned 2 businesses ( wrecking and Driver Training )

Made some SERIOUS money but the satisfaction wasn't there after a while.

Am working in a mates shop on the tools earning less than you but am happy , no stress, no employees , no aggro.

Life is good atm and I enjoy my time talking about cars again with people who like them for what they are and not a source of making money out of.

Cheers

good for u ken :D

brave wish i could be like that but atm i need the money and not really sure if i want to do anything else maybe if work was more demanding of my time and not so boring i would feel different.

but you've made money ken :D if it wasnt for that u wouldnt have the lifestyle and the ability to downgrade the job.

I havent made any money really - havent been able to acquire investments but when i get older i'll probably be able to do the same but for now its boring old work for me.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
