  1. might sound silly but is it the correct dipstick? it maybe showing FULL but it could be WAAAY overfull if its the wrong one
  2. For $2.95 each all you are getting is aftermarket in a " genuine" box so you might as well use the cheaper item
  3. This motor is sounding a bit sus Is it advertised as a stock untouched engine or modified?
  4. 31s are fine . . . altho (being NA)most you find now have been caned by p platers!
  5. Dont forget fuel pump
  6. Go the 30 et, plenty of aftermarket stuff available and the vlt ecu SHOULD plug straight into your existing loom
  7. Go the 30 et Easier to get engineered , plenty of cheap parts/ aftermarket gear out there and just as quick as a 25 with some minor work
  8. ^^ this is how it works, the needle wont go any higher
  9. ^^ this! Some very very early combustion engines had low compression figures from the factory due to the low CR of around 6 to 1 Id say rob is running 8 to 1 CR as hi boost turbos ADD a lot of compression pressure to the engine therefore lowering the CR he can run (part governed by fuel octane)
  10. You can leave your coil cover on and the coils will be fine, there is ventilation fins on the rear timing belt cover and the back of the coil cover is open- provides plenty of cooling air and keeps the coils dry/clean
  11. Better hope not 130 is rebuild time
  12. ^^ been told the water line doesnt quite line up when swapping the turbos over?
  13. Doubt it would make that much difference That figure seems very "optimistic" at best
  14. What are the precision shims worth?
  15. If it was my car, for the money its costs (in cal) a proffesionally made custom wiring loom would be the quickest / easiest solution Might even be one "on the shelf"
  16. Nope, he ran over a hand rail first then angle parked it into the wall. . Its a busy foot path so lucky no one was taken out He must of been speeding as he did a lot of damage for a 60 zone At least he didnt wreck a skyline!
  17. Saw a commo with a SKIN sticker across the back window parked in a brick wall last week, damned if I could work out how he managed that one
  18. I thought shims had a hard coating on the outside that was very thin and easily rubbed thru with sandpaper, therefore exposing the soft metal underneath?
  19. So your comparing an1980s design / small capacity six cylinder against a late model v8 with more than twice the displacement? Apples n oranges yeah?
  20. If you can move the ecu around and the pump kicks in/ out then its a problem with your wiring harness or plug at the ecu end Is the harness plugged in nicely or is it overtightened and has a bend in it?
  21. The timing cover should fit, valve covers might have issues with the breather hoses being different to the 26
  22. Learn to count . . Seven year old thread :-)
  23. Def keep the vq, stroker kits / superchargers all available from the states
