Dibs on Nismo ECU

No I wasnt bagging it, merely an observation. Not sure if the keyboard warrior remark is aimed at me but I'm not in that category. I have done all my own work on my own cars over the last 20 odd yrs with a lot of experimenting with different set ups. Hell, my 180sx has over 150 dyno runs at morpowa trying out different things. All also noticed a gain in turbo response with my dump even though it still runs the standard dump back exhaust. I have changed parts over the years because I didn't buy the right one at the get go, so not too keen on buying something as simple as a dump only to sell it and loose money to then buy another that fits and waste more money. Ryan, don't take what I've said personally, it's in no way an attack on you. ?

The big problem with your style is the turbine section fits into the the turbine housing up to the turbine wheel. When you high flow the turbo it gets a larger turbine wheel and the turbine section of the dump is now smaller than the turine outlet in the turbine housing and creats both a restriction and now a leak as its no longer sealed into the housing. It also creates turbulence where the turbine and wastegate gases merge. You would now need to modify that dump or replace it and why do and pay to do something twice when it doesn't need to be. The general thought is it's better to merge the gas as soon as possible if not using an external gate set up that doesn't re enter the exhaust. Not bagging yours, just going off mine and others experience.

Ordered a new front wheel bearing from Nissan. Retail was $255 but I got it for trade at $211. Will bang it in Saturday morning.

The only thing is an O2 sensor in the dump pipe. If you want to check out the dump pipe my mate makes I'll have one to show you from tomorrow. Make sure you get a bellmouth style as the split type that fits into the rear of the turbine housing are no good once you high flow the turbo. You need to throw it and get another.

I found that when my mate polished mine the polish just lumped into the clear and couldn't get it off. This was mainly on the roof. Took a long time to get it done.

Go no badges at all for that clean look and for people's looks when they are trying to work out what car it is ?

I'm in the same boat. Thinking of going something with a flatter face I stead of dish. Problem is I still love the rims on it.

Just off hampstead road. As he works for himself he will be cheaper than most other workshops .

Ring Chris aka Rex Kelway, he does this type of work. +61 404 027 105 Tell him Paul sent you.

I used to run E85 in my 180sx and never had a problem with the walbro pump.

There's no price

What type of tint did you get, where and how much? I'm keen to get my front doors done ASAP.

Looks nice ?

Yeah that's what I thought. I imagine the geometry will be extremely bad with handling to match. And I would imagine the front upper arms are hitting the strut towers also on bumps.

How is the camber front and rear?

PM me details also. ?

I bought the PWR heavy duty V8 trans cooler kit from Repco. Was $130 but during November it's 20% off with an RAA card. I used a work mates card so only $103.
