  1. They have been known to do more damage to the car than roos...... Insurance will cover repairs if you do hit one.
  2. How do you find 3 & 4 gear with the 4.11? especially on race tracks. Looking at LS conversion for new car and hard to get info on the nissan 3.9, 4.08/4.11, 4.3 ratio with the 6speed
  3. Get a consult adapter and check for error codes Borrow a set of good condition (brand new stock/splitfire or r35 kit not yellow/red/linglong) coils and see if that works Test fuel pressure by putting a gauge between the filter and reg Check tps voltage scales evenly and doesn't jump around OR take it to a mechanic who deals with 90s Japanese cars
  4. Yep. Sure can will have that extension sorted by 2030😂 New motor is in the car. Need 2 fittings to finish oil cooler lines and still waiting on the priming pump to arrive.
  5. wouldn't clearance to cam covers be an issues? by time theres adapter the also the TB motor?
  6. That's some good info there. My new sr is 9.:1 comp, kelford 188a cams and gtx g2 2867 so should make a bit more and be almost as responsive 😁 Interested to see how it goes on track.
  7. Nistune documnets also list them all https://nistune.com/docs/MAF_and_Consult_pinouts.pdf AND A guide from a user here
  8. https://www.nzefi.com/product/nissan-afm-adapter-harness-r33-s2-to-z32/ Google is your friend over 20 years of information out there just search phrases and move key words until you find what you're after.
  9. Replace the shocks then, probably be like $140-300 each depending on brand. Save up for decent quality coilovers.
  10. This is what I've experienced with some of the mentioned brands Not all 200tw but gives a good range if doing street track/track stuff and prices at the time of purchase Advan a050 is super consistant until nothing is left (Multiple Track days & maybe 1200km street driving) $2400 July 2020 Nankang (AR1) will go off in round 12-18months (Multiple track days only, depending on number of heat cycles) $1000 Sept 2018 Hankook RS3 I found were consistent until around 2-2.5 years old down to wear indicators. (daily street and 2 years of sprint track events) $1400 June 2016 I've got the Nexen sur4g ($950 Sep 2021) on the sil80 at the moment and have done around 3000km street driving(road trip from Brisbane to Townsville), King of QR 2021, Lakeside drags & DTC day and a tarmac rally sprint. I have found them pretty good but you can feel the tyre moving around in certain conditions pushing them to the limit. I think is something to do with sidewall construction. The grip when giving it a boot full on the street is great and they hook up well for a car with 300kw and around 1300kg. Yet to have them in proper wet conditions so can't comment on that. Also have the Michelin pilot sport 4s on the 370z ($2200 Mar 2022). Around 6500km of street driving in all conditions, wet hill climb and King of QR 2022, Lakeside DTC day. In the wet they are amazing placed 6th out of 43 cars that day, lots of grip from the start and got better as it dried. At QR found they were consistent for 2 back to back hot laps of national circuit and pressures were stable once I got them right (running 34psi hot). For street fun stuff have been great on different quality of surfaces. For me now its finding a mix between cost vs performance and meeting a class rule for the street cars as we have pretty strict tyre rules for https://www.timeattack.com.au/ events especially street classes. For future I will be sticking with the Michelin for the 370Z and if available the Nexen for the Sil80 as both street cars. The track cars will be AR1/CR-S as I think they are good value where I get them.
  11. Yep, they are bad. Theres a reason they are cheap and poor man pays 3 times................. Better off getting a lowered spring and shock replacement or save a bit longer and get MCA or something that is actually valved decently for street use.
  12. Definitely do some research, will be very hard finding a converted car in Australia. Biggest issue is the tuning of the gearbox as from my research all the TCU are still really in testing. If wanting a bolt in solution a PPG sequential gearset is the easiest option for r33/34 boxes.

  14. Thats right its school holidays..... Troll level achieved.
  15. Well that might be a while for the video to come out but I can tell you from testing the advan a few weeks ago that the crs was quicker around QR sprint & clubman layouts. Only changes to the car was the advan needed rear dampers softened a little bit. The wear on the r35 GTR has been good too (1500ish kg with driver & 20L fuel) done test day at QR sprint & clubman, Goldrush Hill climb and King of QR (4 layouts) this weekend and the Nankang CR-S are still performing well and lots of tread still.
  16. depending on km & condition they would make at the wheels Manual 195-205kw Auto 190-195kw
  17. @Dose Pipe Sutututu @Murray_Calavera https://www.facebook.com/skidcontrol/videos/1210868612832128/?mibextid=Ln9nvgL5G69ErzOE
  18. I can recommend the nankang cr-s but its a time attack tyre and can't do full sessions at full pace. Testing so far has shown they are faster than the advan over 1 lap but the advan is more consistent over the session. I'll look for the Testing video that Dylan from skid control has done.
  19. Next thing we'll be hearing about Don mega spec fuel systems and valve springs in rotaries....... Having worked at one of Queensland's biggest vq tuners I may know what I'm on about.
  20. please buy the ebay box........ They will do 230ish kw MAX with headers, exhaust and maybe intake pipes. Anything else requires a power adder (nitrous or boost) I want some of what your dealer is on. The after market ecu does not control everything.... they run the engine and integrate with the factory Nissan CAN system so all the factory systems work.
  21. @klutched is converting to zf8 hp75 Plenty of info out there in europe, simon michealmore has the dct in his drift car and it seems that it took a lot of work to tune the TCU from HTG. He may be someone to contact and have a chat to about it. Have a look at the zf 8hp** conversion too a youtube channel on sunny coast has done it on his bmw with decent power and talks about the pro & con of it.
  22. Those manifolds do look good and seem great quality when I had a look at jamboree. Looking forward to seeing how all the upgrades improve lap time. Your coming over for WTAC next year?
  23. Be prepared for a lot of this, what ever quotes you get double it then may be close.
  24. 17+ years of information right here Who ever will be tuning go with what ecu they recommend, most likely a Link or Haltech as they are the most common and more budget orientated.
