Well got my floor pans stripped and cleaned up and Brodie got it painted Sunday. Cage is in, seats back in and inner lap harness anchor points mounted into the tunnel with plates etc. ISC strut tops on the bilsteins now, more travel better height adjustment. Still bit left but slowly crossing stuff off the to-do-list. Giving lexan rear screen and door screens serious thought. Not a huge amount to be gained but every bit counts. Also Mr Kuc confirmed ID2000's work with PFC's so that's a bonus E85 won't be too far down the track. AFM will be the only real restriction. Can't wait to get back into the snotter and get out to a SAU day

You could get away with ID1000s and bump up the fuel pressure. Thats what I did with mine. Was good for 475rwkw thru the auto. Brad makes well passed 500 with his

yeah to be honest mate thats prob all I'll run. I know a few blokes on the mainland making 390ish on nismo 740's at 3 bar, so 1000's will be more than enough. For me anyway!

I always think i need more power when i havent driven it in months but usually when i get back in it on the twistes or basky i shit my pants with 17psi/320rwkw's hahaha. touch wood the new suspenion setup and improvments allow me to run more and gain something =)

haha and new rear tyres matey. yep, there has been some looptey loops in her, it was manbearpig.

the last thing that i really want before I'm gonna be happy (for awhile anyway) is a good adjustable rear diff. Still, the improvements to the rest of the old girl should make it easier to cope with whats in it.

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
