ah my gtr has been garaged for 5 months.. thats what i get for moving around the other side of the world :(

Hows life over there dude?

Someone should really go and run the motor for a few hours. Yes, my hand is up. - haha kidding :)

.....but i will do it ;)

i guess it just goes to show what it takes to keep the ol GTR on the road :) I know I could have purchased a small south american country for the dough I throw at mine. :)

The constant effort got to me, always breaking a small but significant part etc

f**king thing

Anywho - the pistons and rods are downstairs for mine.....and the turbo is at aarons......mmm, aaron, can you come to syd for a bit kthnx

dude, blowing your motor is not a small part! lol hehe :D

i don't think i've ever really busted anything in the GTR. well i busted the OS tripple plate (too many trackdays/launches/skidpad/etc), i've worn out some tyres, worn out some brakes, done a few CV boots, but other than that i've spent all the dough on mods and maintenance.

The turbo weighs LOTS though and so does the manifold and well the gate has to go aswell.

      Fake ARP bolts?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Yes sir, that was me. Fake ARP's are also a thing over here in Canada and we only order from reputable dealers. It's sad that even simple things like bolts and hoses are now also being copied... anything to make a dollar.  Story time. Like all cheap crap from China, it's even an issue with firearms. Roughly 15 years ago, I purchased a new cheap Norinco 12g shotgun. First time out in the bush with it, while firing, bolt assembly didn't lock and it fired out of battery. The receiver also being cheap steel, basically exploded in my face. I was lucky to be wearing eye protection. Long story short, don't buy Chinese junk. Also Norinco being state run and their only military arms producer, if ever they do try and take over a country, don't worry about it lol.

      Nismo copper mix twin “pull” pedal height engagement

      By ck_chino · Posted

      Installed  Nismo coppermix twin competition spec last year in my bnr32 with pull trans with Oem slave cylinder. The point at where the clutch disengages/enages is right at the top of the clutch pedal, meaning I barely have to push the pedal down for the clutch to be disengaged.  You guys that have the same combo are you experiencing this high pedal bite point??   Secondly I’d like to have the disengagement point lower meaning I have to push the pedal more(further not effort)for it to be disengaged.  I’m thinking to use a Nismo big operating cylinder(bigger bore at 13/16 vs Oem 3/4) which will require more pedal stroke to get the equivalent movement at the clutch fork. But I see Nismo web site says not to mix these 2 as the Nismo big operating cylinder doesn’t have enough stroke to disengage??? Any folks run both the coppermix twin pull with Nismo cylinder??    Thanks in advance for the replies but prefer only guys with pull clutches to respond. thanks

      That’s a great deal and I would jump on it if you were closer. Melbourne is a bit of a hike for me though unfortunately
