so why would they b causing the problem?
i had adjustable actuators on them wen the car was stock but building a new engine now with -7s and there adjustable 2.
i hav an r32 gtr with the bov's removed and blocked off. what i also noticed is now theres a bloody big pipe that goes all the way to the other side of the car and now its there for no reason and is just taking up space and boost pressure.
does ne 1 think this could b causing my loss of power down low as the car doesnt realy go ne where till bout 5000rpm.
is it worth putting bov's back on? romoving the pipe completely and blocking it off at the twin turbo pipe or just leavin as is?
im in the same boat as dc2mike but im just after a set of cheap forged pistons n rings for an rb26 if ne 1 knows where to get em.
sorry bout hijacking the thread.
yer its that cog that sits rite infront of the oil pump, u cant get a puller on it cos half of it is coverd by a metal plate n if u dont get that off the end of the crank u cant get the oil pump off n u cant get the crank out.
I've recently bought my 1st gtr n have just destroyed the bottom end as well and am going through the same rebuild process. Sorry to hijack the thread but was wondering if any 1 has had any trouble getting the gear off the end of the crank. I cant get the thing to budge and its stopping me from getting the oil pump n crank out. Also i only paid $75 for my crank collar.
i just bought a 1989 r32 gtr last week for 12 500. its fairly stock n clean as a whistle except abit of paint missin off the inlet manifold. the thing is a great daily n i get about 450km out of a tank and thats with a fair bit of time spent on boost. i just hope its fairly reliable.
