Crank should be getting balanced over the next few days. So I can finally start putting shit together :)

Got over the idea of cc-ing it. The shape of the piston domes and how it all sits just makes it more trouble then its worth. I already know its going to be between 8.5 - 9:1 so that's all good.

Get it all together and work out what colours I'm gonna paint everything. Sick of looking at the block how it is at the moment. Will look much nicer with some paint on it :)

Haha i have a couple of flat brim hats in the cardboard, the car will be dual purpose Rob just a matter of swapping tires and geometry, just wanna build something crazy and over the top, all my ideas i've wanted to do over the years put into one car.

Big f**k off GT Wing check! Low as f**k check! Massive deep dish wheels check! Sidepipe Titanium Exhaust check! V-mount intercooler/radiator check! Fully stripped out no dash and one seat check! Front splitter and Canards that would decapitate someone Fark yeah check!

Drive it like i stole it and hang the hell on, if it doesn't scare the shit out of me every time i drive it, white knuckling the bastard the whole lap and my arsehole chewing on that Bride seat then i'm afraid i have failed this project lol.

Haha that's brilliant, if you had a passenger seat i would of said you should get one of those dash stickers that say "SHUT THE f**k UP I GOT THIS!"

WTF are they doing with your engine Rob hand build they parts with a hacksaw and file, ring them slack kents up and put some fire under there arse, have you already payed them in full yet?

Haha yeah if freaking love that sticker should put one on the R32 lol

f**k that man you have paid in full it should be ready, i would have paid half now and half when i get it, that's ridiculous man who is doing the build. Does not take that long to build an engine, our Drag engine didn't even take that long, and it has custom built internals and we never paid the full bill until we went down and picked it up.

I don't mind to be honest... I know where it is and shit. JHH Racing is doing it. I trust him and he knows what he is doing. It is because of communication issues that its taking so long.

Shoulda done a JSA before I sent it down and made sure POS.comm was a control...

I hardly think anyone can call Will from JHH Perf. Engineering 'slack'.... Especially not when he builds most SEQ workshop motors, including Godzilla's..... One of the very few he doesnt is Elite's!

He currently has 8-10 motors sitting there..... I sort of doubt Rob's or mine are on the 'ultra urgent' list.....

What i'm getting at is if you generally have already paid something in full you shouldn't have to wait a lifetime to get it. E.g when you order a custom set of rims from Rays that take 3-4 months to be made you usually pay halve up front and the other halve when its ready to be shipped etc.

I know where you are coming from, Ben, but I also understand Will's side too. Total sercurity into the work

nothing worse than ordering $$$$$$ parts and the the guy disappears, only paying enough to cover half.

The only reason I was getting the shits is because I didn't know what the go was with it. Now I do, I have restored faith.

    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise    
    • My Fuga Hybrid is JDM, 2014 model but very similar to the V37 from the looks of things..same platform just physically larger and very comfortab;e
    • Was that Australia Delivered Duncan? Does it have siren etc?   I used to have remote start on an old 32 two decades ago, it was a cool feature. I used to wake up early in winter for work. Start it and by the time i was out the door a few minutes later the engine was warmed up and the heaters had the car toasty. It was great.    I don’t mine the ambience lighting.  I drive a western star and it has footwell lights and ambient lighting and it’s great! From the pics of seen of them installed in a skyline I think it’s a nice touch
