hey guys my name is joel, i just moved to redland bay bout 2 months ago, i drive a 92 silver 32 gtr with nismo stipe stickers, dont know a great deal of ppl up here yet (just moved from northern rivers in nsw) so pretty keen to tag along on some cruses or meets etc etc.

cheers.:merli:

Hey team, bit of an old face here, used to own a 32 Gtst with just mild mods but this full time student couldnt support it back then, however after years of driving around a 1.6L pulsar and just about to graduate ive decided to jump back on the horse and bought myself a 32 GTR, its still got vic plates on it at the moment but they will be fixed soon. Its got white 5 spoke eniki rims so give us a wave! oh PS.. anyone give me some advice on tramlining? it seems that when im cruising along in 4/ 5th doing about 60-65 i get these shunts from the back end....oh and the hicas light keeps blinking on now and then but im going to check the power steering fluid tomorrow, any reccomendations for a top up if needed?

Thanks, Michael

Welcome back.

Sounds like could be air in the lines or a bit of a clog...mine used to do it, could do with a flush.

SCC09 is on next weekend. Should get along, many of the old crew are still around.

Sweet im hopeing she will be running right before then, can you elaborate on flush? as in an injector flush or?

If you Hicas light keeps coming on when its shunting then could but some air or chunky PS fluid in there. Just get a big case of PS fluid and undo a connection at the rear...top her up and drain it at the same time. repeat at the front somewhere.

If the shunting feels more like the engine miss firing, then it could be something else all together, and I would point you in the way of the place in my sig. Can give you ideas but thats about it.

hi all,

I too will say gday.

been looking at SAU for a while before I signed up and before any posting.

I'm around the drewvale/calamvale area...hope to see some of you around.

oh yeh and one of my cars is a 32 GTR (you might know me by the red 'skyline' along with a nismo sticker at the rears.....just needs a tune atm though...now who to choose to do this... :(

cheers all.

Welcome to the forum guys! Theres a BnR meet every Thursday at the west side if anyone is interested. I tried organizing something at the south but FAIL!

I plan to take mine to Gavin Woods from Autotech at Gold Coast (If the plan works...). Alternative, Matt Spry from PITS and Mark from GodzillaMotorsport are well recommended too.

    • This is lower price now given apparently nobody wants these or needs them. It's 550 but if someone sees it on SAU and wants to make an offer, please do so.
    • LS is a good motor, but it hurts my soul when I see it in a RB. Guess it fixes the oiling issues lol.
    • I'm confused. Does this qualify as "Gregging" or are you somehow avoiding the Gregging?
    • More assembly going on, with all sorts of "bolt right on bro" scenarios going on here. Smartly, PTV clearance was checked. And I say smartly because it turns out that the intake was 0.009" from piston meeting valve. This is 0.23mm. This is very not okay. A fast meeting was facilitated between engine builder in Australia and engine builder in the USA which was actually incredibly helpful and constructive actually, various ideas thrown around to get around this issue including: 1) Retard the cam timing which would have brought the exhaust valve closer to meeting piston (it was 0.065") which was uncomfortably close to begin with, and change the cam profile making it 'laggier' 2) Much larger head gaskets which would reduce compression, but half the point of this was to increase compression. 3) New set of pistons ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$) 4) All of the above 5) Get ghetto The concept is you get sticky sandpaper and stick it back to a valve, slightly larger than the valve you/I'm using, like say from a LS3/rectangle port head. You now have a very super advanced flycutting tool to modify your pistons in your block. Then you install it in your head, and attach the other end of the head to a drill. Then you just replicate your valve smashing into a piston with your spinning drill.   This is the result. Repeat many times. It is strongly recommended you have some kind of fixed stop when doing this for extremely obvious reasons because if you press too hard then you're well into apocalyptic repercussion land. The minimum clearance on the intake valve is now 0.075" this is still in the "Too close to be really comfortable" and into "It should be fine" land. Supposedly in the real world the clearances will be slightly bigger. Guess this is what happens when people push envelopes for N/A engines instead of adding boost! Time to move onto the new, upgraded, higher ratio roller rockers from Yellaterra, all tapped and threaded with a stronger bolt for better stability. Very nice. Lets see how they fit. For f**ks sake. Time to bring the grinder out for these aftermarket, machined and CNC'd heads. Looks like the new, beefier rocker from YellaTerra has gone from Bolt on part to "Bolt on part". Well, lets see how this bolt on crank scraper and windage tray goes then, shall we? There actually is more clearance than they specify for this thing, but seeing it all move as you check it is terrifying when you see it all so very very very very nearly hit things. But after all, this is what the item is designed to do after all and actually did bolt on perfectly and have enough clearance to everything and some very clear and direct instructions. So +1 to Improved Racing I suppose. As above with the windage tray on. Photo of breaker bar wonkiness for added lols. Next up: Oil pump/front cover/water pump/sump and then it's time to actually install the heads, pushrods, head bolts, valve cover gaskets and such is all there and ready to go. (except the oil pump bolts which were previously longer for more clearance with the previously perfectly installed double row timing chain). There's definitely a sense that someone other than us has been here before and done everything perfectly, or at least considered it and came up with working solutions. Perhaps the previous cam was 6deg advanced to avoid PTV issues with the milled stock heads? In any case when I attempt to sell this stuff the buyers are going to be very directly informed.
    • my catch can is pretty easy to empty but it overflows due to the blowby/crank case pressure etc. max I have drained is ~600ml even with a ~2.3L capacity. So it is not just about having to drain it out its the mess it makes down the firewall and under the car and rear passenger tyre from the overflow oil being blasted by screamer + air in general. Ending up on the ground cleaning the oil up and having oil on your arms when everyone else can chill and watch the other sessions gets old fast
