new motor is built, just a set of CP forged piston's and some Nismo rod's, Tomei sump baffle, Kelford cam's, OS giken cam gear's,

OS giken twin plate clutch and moly flywheel, still need to decide ona fuel rail and injector size

Have removed engine and box, also complete front suspention and x-member, and have stripped to engine bay of everything,

and it's in bare metal ready for a little bit of seam welding here and there, then it's paint time have picked a colour but i not letting

Hey zoidbergmerc yeah its a 26 out of a 94 model Vspec1 but it had the longer crank in it and i just got a basic budget reco (as budget as you can anyway) but its basically got Ross forged pistons, nitto rods, ACL bearings, oil restrictors, external oil drain, hi octane sump extension, basic head reco with heavy duty valve springs for poncams later on etc. Really just a full refresh with no heavy machining or over the top parts. I figured if i went all out on it and something went wrong then i would'nt have the money to do it again so i just tried to get away with as much as possible while fixing the factory probs and making it more reliable. I mean nissan knew what they were doing and stock these engines are capable of decent power so with a few new bits it should do what i want for as long as i want well hopefully anyway lol. I would get some pics up but im really struggling to do that ive got them off my iphone and onto picasa3 but i cant seem to get them onto SAU so if anyones got any tips they'd be much appreciated.

Hey mate, where did u get ur engine work done? Wot power r u hoping to make? And wot fuel system r u running?

Hey I pulled the engine out myself but my mate works at Tas Engine Reco in Hobart so they did all the work. I'm putting Garrett -5s on it so I'm hoping for around 340-380kw obviously closer to 380 would be better lol but I guess it all depends on the tuner it should be good for 400 in theory but you know how things vary. As for fuel system I haven't got anything sorted out yet but I have removed all my hicas stuff apart from the hard lines from the front to back and I've heard something about converting them to fuel feed lines cause they're bigger than the factory ones or something like that but I'll work it out. Other than that just a decent intank feeding a surge tank with an external feeding the injectors havent looked at any brands yet. My mate got I think it's siemens injectors in a kit with a rail reg and lines pretty cheap through his work on his 25 and they seem to do the job well. So I'll probably go with those. But really at the moment just a saving game lol. It's true GTR owners are all poor aren't they lol.

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
