JE-R33GTS-T

Also I have removed the standard clutch fan and radiator so now running twin 12 inch thermo fan and alloy radiator with the switching control of the fans. I could not believe how quick the car built revs after the change .... must of had a considerable load on the old wore out clutch fan

I have a N1 Nissan Genuine Pump now and restrictor in the galleries to the head so considering the primary usage of the motor to be street so sustained High rpm will not be a REALISTIC option. (Training to be a cop so High Range Speed Fine and HOONING would not look good). Running ACL Race Bearings so with good maintenence I am imagining it will be fine. If I go drag racing or circuit I am going to run an oil cooler and a litre extra oil as safety because that is how the guys on here tend to manage it. I have oil pressure and temp gauges now too!

New Pics Currently awaiting initial start up on Monday :-)

Could be a hose off on the intake as well, reset the ecu and see if it starts (unhook battery terminal + and stand on brake pedal to drain charge then reconnect terminal)

Getting my stock cams refinished/ground this week $290 for the pair.

As for studs I had one stuck in with loctite from the previous owner haha no wonder the back two cylinders had no exhaust gasket left I pulled the stud out with my fingers

Haha I like it! I'm the same I'll give it a chop and have a go if I don't think I'll stuff anything expensive after a bit of reading but I have no probs calling someone to fix it

GT30R Front with a gt28r core and avo turboworld custom rear housing purchased off a friend. His Stagea made 277kw ATW on 18psi stock 2.5 NEO with almost stock throttle response so will be very interested as is my friend with the result on essentially a 2.7 On that am I right to think it is close to a 2.7 as it is a 2.6 with a 1 mm oversize bore and 1.2 hgasket?

Yeah it spun a big end bearing and lost oil pressure as you can see the rings were shagged. Price difference was exactly that $4000 more total to do things right first time. Head had 3 bent valves 2 exhaust and 1 inlet I believe so they were replaced along with uprated springs. Machinist called it a overhaul and refresh described as "what should be done" by my builder not a no expense spared porting they flow well from the factory just time spent making sure it's as good as it can be.

Spool Imports Rebuild Kit supplied Ross Pistons 8.5:1 1mm oversize which was available instock the other was the CP in 8.5:1 but they didnt have the 1mm oversize instock. I wanted 9.0:1 but cost factors and the excellent deal Spool did me was to hard to pass up. My machinist and engine build have managed to get it back to between 9.1-9.2:1 by decking the head and block surface. Its a streeter and I didnt want to run 20+psi on the way to work or home at night lol tired I still think I might get a bigger turbo and run some big numbers later but as a daily street car 280kw with positive boost at 3000 was my aim.

Here are some Pics off the new and machined pieces Oh and the DEAD PISTONS

There is a good DIY on forward facing Plenums just search I read it the other day

Classic lol

Yeah I have spoken to my tuner and he is confident with them. My mate is running it in his R31 RB30 With T67 and has recommended it. I havent bought it yet but the price is right = Cheap lol I have read a few threads about the Vipec and link ecus but I just feel more comfortable with the adaptronic because of my friends recommendations and consulting with my tuner. Thanks mate
