Up for sale is my Nismo 300km dash. Dash reads at 22146km. Great condition everything works like it should. Located North Brisbane $600 neg

Got the dash wired up and went for a small cruise on friday night. Dash is awesome! Can see all the data now. Got the speed sensor working yesterday, just need to calibrate it now. Then the last one is fuel level, need to pull the sender out and measure resistances for full and empty. Also worked out we need an oil cooler. Will chuck a filter relocation in with it as well. Plan is to move the auto cooler to the passenger side and shoehorn the engine oil cooler on the drivers side somehow 20200611_175611.mp4

Also anyone know what size resistor would work?

Just finished installing my new AiM MXP dash. Thought I would run into this issue of the alternator not charging. From what I've read the exciter wire runs from the dash to the alternator. Ign +12v puts power to the lamp while the alternator isnt charging. When the alternator is charging it changes the exciter wire from a gnd to +12v therefor the lamp becomes unlit. As I don't have a lamp there anymore can I get +12v from the ign with a resistor and connect it to my alternator exciter wire to get the alternator to charge again? Thanks Heres a little vid of the new dash 20200611_175611.mp4

Cluster mount finally rocked up today! Wasted no time getting it in for a test fit up. Looks awesome! Put power to the dash but still have to hook up can and the rest of the inputs. I have set up a lot of the alarms, lights, pages and things so once it's all wired up should just assign what readings I want where from the ECU.

Yeah like Ben said its 100-200km/h. Have no need to test 0-60 really as most racing I do is done from a roll. And when we go to the strip it will obviously be a lot different to launching on the road. Setup is in an r33 gtst. RB26/30 3.4 stroker, precision 7685, powerglide made 912rwhp on 33psi with more in it.

Dragy is awesome! We use one in my car at roll racing to see if the changes are working. Fastest 100-200 is currently 4.11s, with the old turbo. New one I've done a 4.25 on 30psi in the middle of summer. Should go mid 3s now we've got it turned up if we can get it to hook up.

New Aim MXP Strada dash arrived last week. Can't wait to get it put in and running. Will be able to have speedo on there now and also bonus of deleting my current boost gauge and trans temp gauge. I ordered a Mako dash surround as well, so just waiting for that to turn up before I can put it in. Should make the interior a lot cleaner and also have all the extra things I need to see infront of me

Yeah we went 1021hp on 35psi with the 7175 gen 1 (thought it was a 7675). That was ok a hub dyno though. That old turbo was a menace it would come on pretty quick. New one definitely feels a little slower but I can't really compare because I changed the diff gears to 3.69s at the same time I put the 7685 in. First vid is 7685 we had 30psi ramping to 37psi at around 6250rpm (can hear when she starts singing), second vid is 7175 racing mates gtr with the 7685. On a mainline hub he spun up 1130hp 36psi. I think I raced him on 28psi because we couldn't run anymore due to wheel spin with what I assume is the major difference with 4.11s vs the 3.69s now. received_644170796131896.mp4 20190601_212408.mp4

For anyone interested in larger frame PTE's here's my 7685 Gen 1. 912rwhp on 33psi. Still have a little bit more boost to jam in it so we'll see how we go. Hoping to get up a bit closer to 960-980rwhp on the roller. Setups is 26/30 3.4 stroker with a powerglide.

Just been plotting along doing some small stuff lately. Noticed I had about 100mm of the interfooler blocked from airflow. Decided to trim the bar and reo out to help with some free extra cooling. Whole intercooler should now receive better airflow. Also had my guard roller turn up. So I got to work lipping my guards to fit 275s under her. Never done it before the first side came out a bit average ill have to get the paint on the seam fixed and a couple little dents came through from something being stuck behind the lip. The passenger side came out mint, I cleaned behind the lip first and theres no dents or cracked paint. I had my dash out to try and get my speedo working. While I was there I replaced the stock cig lighter with a usb charger I had laying around. Fit in there perfect without any modification! I'm now running a diff speed sensor on the nose of the new housing. Tried to wire it straight to the dash but it's not the correct signal. So today I'll connect it back up to the ECU and try and send it to the dash from there so I can have a working speedo again.

Awesome thanks for clarifying that! Is that a standard factory item or is it different to suit the Nismo LSD? Have a mate with an early 32 GTR diff there that I might be able to test if so.

Have just found this table as well. I assume is all the half shafts that are interchangeable with eachother? Which would confirm the GTR ones would be applicable in my nismo center.

Sorry I have just checked back when I ordered brand new genuine ones. P/N is 38220-0V771 (left) and 38220-0v770 (right). I punched in the P/N's and it linked me to OS Giken LSD which lists R32 GTR, ER34 and Z33 on there. https://www.streettuned.com.au/shop/all/os-giken-super-lock-lsd-nissan-skyline-r32-gtr/ I would assume if I replaced with those part numbers with the 6x1 half shafts it would go straight into my diff coupled with a set of 6x1 GTR axles and hubs? Ive just removed the right side half shaft from my center and confirmed it is a 30spliner.

Just to confirm 30 spline half shafts are interchangable between eachother? I have a Nismo 1.5 way with I believe R34 GT-t 30 spline half shafts. I've been looking for info that early 32 GTR 30 spline half shafts will fit so I can upgrade to 6x1 axles. From what I can see they look just about identical except for the obvious flange differences. I need to pull my half shafts out and see what I've actually got as Nismo sometimes do some funky stuff using 2 of the same shaft etc.

We did another run on the dyno the next morning no changes to the tune and went 908rwhp. Put a couple degrees timing in and went 912rwhp on 33psi. Friday I got my new varex muffler on. Really surprised how quiet it is closed up its weird ? decided to get it turned down so you can't really see the valve easily. Thinking about painting the inside black so it hides it more. Need to get it pushed back to the bumper a little bit as it sits under the car too far. 20200417_172400.mp4

Chucked her on the roller this arvo to clean up the tune a bit. All going well made 900rwhp on about 34psi. Still have to play around with timing and also add a bit more boost in hopefully go closer to 1000rwhp. 20200414_170637.mp4

She's alive again! Still gotta do new wiring for gearbox but waiting for a few bits and pieces. Ive ordered a guard roller and picked up a heat gun so I can flare the guards a bit to fit 275s under the ass end. Also got a new DA and some cut and polish to give her a good clean up. Few scratches and swirl marks to get out of her. Should keep me going for a bit while we can't drive anywhere... Snapchat-2117516364.mp4

Finally got my catch can all finished today and made up all the lines I needed. Come up pretty good. Also 98% finished my fuse box relocation as well. Just need to join a couple wires and run power to the fuse box, tidy it up a bit and test it all. Going to make a cover for it as well if i can fit it just to keep rocks and stuff from flicking up and damaging anything. Thinking I might make up a custom coolant overflow tank and also a washer bottle for max street cred ? I'll get some measurements on monday and get it all cut up and folded ?

You'll run 11s easy out of it. I ran pedders coilovers and had 17" rs3s on. Ran 11.7 like that while still manual. Went to mickeys on the rear and ran an 11.6. Went to glide setup and went 11.2, got the converter tweaked and 10.8. That was on 450whp, 500whp with manual and then when I went glide it made 440whp.

Thanks mate. Yeah still on factory rear end. Have got a Nismo 1.5 way in there with 3.69 gears now. Havent done a hit with the new setup but previous setup I did a 1.642. I'm sure with the new setup I'll definitely break one at the strip. But for street stuff its been fine so far. Got the catch can welded up today. Fits in there nicely ? Tomorrow I've gotta make up some brackets to hold it in place and pick up some fittings and also a weld on drain and get her finished up. Should look pretty hectic with 5 lines coming to it ? I'll get it powdercoated once its all done as well to match the plenum and turbo. Also got new stickers yesterday so wacked one on to see how she looks. Came up alright. If I get some time tomorrow we'll slap the other side on too. Box should be finished later this week, hopefully have some time over the weekend and we'll get her back in and running.

Been back in brissy with this whole corona thing going on atm so thought it's a good time to get some stuff done on the car. Got all the stuff for the catch can and cut it all to suit. Still have a little bit of trimming to do on some corners and things to get it perfect but so far so good. I have marked up where the holes are going for the weld ons. Just need to cut them out now and we'll probably weld them from the inside keep it looking a bit cleaner. Will have to go get a few fittings and stuff to make up the new lines for breathers. Also got cracking on my fuse box relocation. Getting there just 2 more relays to wire up from the factory harness which is horn and foglights. Then just wire up transbrake and auto cooler fan. Still waiting on box to come back hopefully ready this week coming.

ASR sump turned up on Friday. Pulled motor out saturday and got it on. Really nice piece of kit. Changed head drain to turbo side. Waiting on catch can to be finished so we can make up lines to the sump. We ran into a little problem with clearance with the sway bar. We will have to space the sway bar down maybe 15-20mm so we can still retain it.

So the ASR sump is probably a week or 2 away now. Slightly changed the fitting setup. Am now going 2x -12s on intake side to catch can and then I'll be running the head drain back to the exhaust side. This should be able to release all the crank case pressure now and hopefully stop filling the can. I pulled my box out last week gotta take it to my builder and get him to fix the leak on it. Finally wired up my speed sensor from the diff. Unfortately we can't make the stock cluster work with it so I'll have to wait until I get a digital dash to have a working speedo but atleast we can setup boost/speed now. Decided to finally wire up my reverse lights onto the transbrake too, will give me some light now when I'm reversing and let people know I am. Also removed my fuse box and coolant overflow bottle and measured up for the new catch can. Couple little changes to do then ill get it cut and bent up. I also got defected last monday when I was going to take the car down to the shop.... Got done for exhaust tyres and no mod plates. I got the car mod plated now, just need to put my 18s on when im driving around. Might have to put mickeys in the back of the car when I go racing. Don't really have a lot of options exhaust wise. I wanted to put a varex in previously because its loud on the highway and when im cruising around and getting home late at night. The cop tested my exhaust, was 95dB at idle and 112dB at 4800rpm. Im also going to see if they get plumb both screamers into the dump but make them removable like my old setup was. Car should hopefully be all finish in the next few weeks and then we'll get her on the hub and ready to send down the strip in winter ?

Not a whole lot going on lately. I got my diff rebuilt with 3.69 gears. Has brought my rpm at 100km/h down to 3000rpm. She's hooking a lot harder now as well with the suspension and diff ratio change. Had 37psi in her from 6250rpm at rolls. I also changed up my surge tank wiring and put in relays with inline fuse holders. The old relay/fuse combo would get very hot and I think it was creating more resistance in the circuit causing the fuse to blow. Went out to rolls and seems to be all working fine now. Having problems with the catch can now she's spewin a bit of oil out into the current can. Plan is to relocate the factory fuse box and make a bigger can to fill that area. Will also integrate a washer bottle into it as well. I am also going to get a bigger sump made up by ASR. I think with the power of the car and g forces we definitely need to go to a better baffling/trap door setup along with their custom pickup. I will be setting up the sump for the current -10 head drain and also will be adding a -12 fitting for a sump breather to also run to the catch can. That will total 2x -12 from block/sump for crankcase pressure ventilation and then 2x -12 from the cam covers. Hoping that should stop or atleast help my oil escaping and also relieving the drains in the head to flow more efficiently. Heres a few pics and couple vids from last rolls. 20200125_181946.mp4 20200125_195703.mp4
