  1. so one day i noticed that my car had a different cranking sound i let it go for a week or so didnt think of it much at that time, i honesly thought the starter was on the way out, but when i noticed that my oil catch can was half filled with oil i realised that something was not right, it was either excessive blow by engine not breathing properly so i went and checked that it was breathing properly. it all checked up alrite i went to check the compression it was dead even in first 4 cylinders of 180psi of pressure i thought to myself oh ok the engine is good but when i went to check it on 5th it only had 65psi of pressure, ohhhh shittt. the hunt then started for the failed cylinder 5 started pulling things appart inlet manifold off rocker covers off manifold and turbo off it was getting preety late so i called it a night
  2. oh shit i just realised its in the wrong thread not the biggest computer person is there a way of just transferring it to build ups or just start another new topic with copy paste thing
  3. So ive decided to buy a copy greddy inlet manifold and a surge tank with bosch 044 of another friend, ive painted the rocker covers in wrinckle black and turbo in matt black also added a oil catch can after fitting it all and runing in a small problem with the copy manifold and vct line which wasnt used, we managed to grind off a bit and still retain the vct aftermarket line, in case i decide to run the vct. here what it ended up looking like to me much nicer well am a sucker for black lol
  4. the red inlet manifold and plenum with standard throttle body is now for sale, asking 150 and pick up from syd liverpool
  5. This is where it all started when i bought the car of a mate, this is how he had it set up
  6. hey guys i thought i would share my story with you all, therefore am starting a build thread A little bit of background of the car, ive owned the car for only 3 months, this used to be my friends car for over 7 years so i know everything thats been done and how its been driven. he has originally build the engine, well at least he thought he had but he got a bit shafted, both of us found this out when the engine failed and i pulled the engine apart. car mods are rb30 25 neo head mild cams not sure on the specs exactly but the way it idles it would be somewhere with the 250-260 duration with a lift of 8.9 (which ive calculated) NO VCT used GARRETT gt3788r turbo 3inch exhaust with twin mufflers, turbosmart hyper gate 45 Haltech plug in platinum pro PE 850cc injectors nismo adj fuel pressure reg walbro intank pump with 044 external + surge tank greddy copy intake manifold ported and machined for perfect fit trust intercooler ill upload a few photos and keep you all updated of the future build that am going to do over some period of time Ive made 320rwkw before the engine let go but you dont expect stock pistons to last much at that much power

  21. yeah i have the knowledge and all but am just not confident enough and theres only me to blame if something goes wrong lol
  22. well well well oh boi do i have a story for you guys, well during the last 3 days i have been pulling my engine apart and i have found out that its only a standaard rb30 no VCT either, it has cracked a ring land like most rb30 do when pushed a bit. now this is supposed to be a built engine my friend got screwed over and i ended up being screwed over cos i bought the car, not blaming a friend one bit, i spoke to the guy that said "engine is built and he denied it, he was certain he built it blah blah blah. I then sent him a photo of the piston, and then he saaid he will see what hes gonna do about it, will be waiting for his call sometime this weekend. now i am not a f@####n idiot and i am getting a bit annoyed by how much bullshit he can talk ohhh myyy. ive checked the bore its a 85. something cant remember so its standard, pistons are standard rb30, its even got a nissan print inside the piston now cams that are suppousecd to be 270, 9.11mm are not ive measured the cam lobe and calculated and my lift end up being about 8.9, what cams are in it f*k knows? now ill try and get some money of this guy at least for the rebuild kit which is 2k from spool imports will keep u updated on how it all ends up being so disappointing :(
  23. ecu sold bov anyone????????? will post for 80
  24. yeah i have confronted him about other things he said he put on the car but he didnt, but he didnt like it much at all he was getting so annoyed by me cos i know what am talking about but oncei get the head off and see what the real drama is i will definatelly give him a call and tell him a few things he might not like
