  1. Is your cooling system working well? Bleed at the head? distilled water+quality coolant? The factory temperature gauge is a bit crap, so if you can check the actual temperature with Consult if you have std ECU/nistune or the powerfc hand controller if that's what you have. You can also check other sensors while you're at it. The ECU does have some defenses for over temperature, cant remember what they are... maybe fuel enrichment??
  2. +1. After you tighten the actuators, make sure they are both working in unison by applying boost to the signal line, and making sure they move together. Otherwise you could flog out a turbo. For clarity, it appears you have two boost control problems. 1. Probably actuatory adjustment 2. Boost controller installed incorrectly/broken.
  3. GT-RS are far bigger and laggier than -7s. Did you mean GT-SS?
  4. With proper boost control you should be at 16psi by 4k, not 8. How did you setup the wastegate actuators?

  16. There's no need to pull the engine out. I've done the plenum on my 32R. Sure, its an absolute bitch of a job, but motor out is harder. If you find yourself getting frustrated, walk away for a while. For the hoses, here's my list. IIRC i missed the fat 90 degree ones that go either side of the IAC. Coolant pipes on Drivers side and rear of motor; 21307-05U02, 14055-05U11, 21307-05U04, 14055-05U01, 14055-05U02 Water/heater: 92410-05U00, 92402-05U00, 92401-05U00 Lower radiator hose: 21503-72L00 I had some photos... i'll see if i can find them, they may help a little. Good luck EDIT: they photos are here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/gallery/album/15274/4185-plenum/
  17. I just pick them off by and and use needle nose pliers to straighten the fins.
  18. Yeah in that case you could probably get rid of all of them. Just check where they all go in case my memory is off and then block them off.
  19. The hoses on the gearbox are breathers, so largely inconsequential. Notice the bracket on the end has a hole> One of the top gearbox to engine bolts holds it in place when you install the box. The crushed ones in the other pic are IIRC coolant (the bigger one, goes to the turbos) and at least one of the others is the vac/boost signal for the wastegate actuators. Just follow them around and you'll see what they're connected to. These ones are important so replace them.
  20. You want one with 3in flanges but 4in or more matrix. Since the matrix takes up space you want to get a larger matrix cross section than the pipe diameter so flow isnt badly restricted. All cats have smaller flanges than the matrix size.
  21. Ah, that must be where that old saying comes from "dont bend valves with your eyes" Wait... what?
  22. Pretty sure it has been mentioned here that superlight (ONLY superlight) is recommended by Redline for that box. I found it hard to believe at the time, but IIRC the poster had called Redline. Would definitly be worth confirming with them before trying it. Anyway Andrew at that power, stick with the transmax Z.
  23. I find R32 GTR seats tiny across the shoulders - my shoulders are wider then the seat so im ON it rather than IN it.... I ended up getting R34 GTR seats which are way better, and they bolt in. Great support. IMO the only way with seats is to sit in one before you buy. The mount points arent straightfoward in GTRs, so i'd guess fitting a custom seat would require a fair bit of custom work.
  24. Jeebus! Best wishes Paul - hope you're back to good health in no time.
