I am not arguing with you dino. If i wanted an engine I would go that way too, However, If i wanted a car the line owns it for me.

Nor am I. Just wanted to go fast for cheap and be a bit different:) Seemed like a good way of doing it. Might upgrade to a R32 and whack my driveline in that :(

Edited by DennisRB30
What does a decent auto R32 go for these days? And what are the tallest diff gears you can find cheaply?

I have no idea Dino, BUT> I believe the price of 32's is going to go through the floor over the next few months as the new P plate laws start to bite. Could be some good cheap track cars available. :(

was a good spread of cars. sorry i didn't mingle... i had a mate with me so spent most time with him watching from the grandstand.

was a bit dissappointed with my time. last time i ran 14.7@98mph but this time i ran 14.6@95mph

had a much better 60' this time but still couldn't figure out why my mph was slower. oh well, it was great fun

that rx7 was crazy, as was that 90s mustang, and the old white ford replica

look forward to the next event!

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
