7M's didnt have the right torque figures for the head from factory tighten them down a little more (there is info on the net somewhere) and its all sweet

with one of these

hahahah

yeah i had it tourqued down pretty damn tight, way over the factory spec.

7ms just have a habit of heating up alot around piston 5 n 6. in the end the block was munted (it had made a chanel between one of the water galleries and the 6th piston) so there was no chance some more twist could have saved it.

it now has a 1J in it :cheers: .... wish it was still mine

spotted the black 33 with 34 front and flames down the side roll past the skate park at salisbury. looked to have a for sale sign in the window and a gtr badge at the back :( i was sure that thing was a gts

Thats EMS 334. My bus goes past his house every day, he has a new silver R33 GTR on trade plates too, and there was a rubbed-down R34 under sheets there a few weeks ago.

Went out north thru Salisbury, 'Lidabeth and Craigmore on the bike yesterday. :P

Man there are so many wankers who think they can drag off a bike :P Getting tired of it. Maybe my brother can move back down closer to the city again.

Yeah. I dunno how they can charge $1200 ea when I'll have the housings already removed and give them turbos.... put them back in thru someone else.... if i get this pair of blown gtr turbos and steel wheel em, it'll be regency friendly, but i cant be stuffed paying $1200 ea when I can get 2860-7's from ISC for around that price NEW

-D

Had a quick look at RB26 results: try this

18psi with high flowed steel wheels = 280 odd kws

18psi with -5s = 316kws .........

Only had a quick look - maybe there are others making more power on high flow steel wheels?? Post em up if you find them.....

Im running N1's in my GTR at the moment im making 296rwkws with stock injectors/afm's/fuel pump/fpr. They're great nice and responsive and the only problem i have with them at the moment is once of the oil seals has gone so i just bought a set of N1's that have just been completely rebuilt and will be fitting them soon. I was gonna get the Garretts but these came up and i have less chance of problems if i have to go to regency

    • Big claims here.  Any links up on the website ?   
    • If your HP goal is reasonable and you are not drifting. Buy a new R34 box.  If the above is not true, buy a wrecked R33 box and put a gearset in it.  CD09 are not as strong as you think and the cost of / mess around of the conversion puts you in gearset territory.    Also the deal above is awesome,, get that  
    • Just got back from a little hands-on with a G58 Baron....I was thinking about this... ..best I can figure it, that pinny was tail-ended ...I didn't really think about the wiring, because all that mattered was the tank and pump cradle (I think I mentioned the pump itself I couldn't vouch for)...which didn't matter, as you said you'd be replacing the pump anyway.... ...'for some reason'....and I imagine this is the panel shop's doing... they've replaced the cradle wiring with a metre of 7-core trailer loom, and attached the loom plug (from a different car) to that. The actual cable run from the top of the pump cradle, to fuel pump harness end in boot, is maybe 60cm in length...so I've no idea why they did this... ....the connector in the boot of the pinny, is not going to help you here...because in theory, it should still be present on your car. On top of that, because they've done what they did, we have no idea which colours of the trailer cabling, have been connected to what on the fuel pump cradle (pump +/- , shield, fuel guage/low-level senders)... ...this means, best approach is to remove the pump cradle, and re-work it now ...not later. That is, if you were going to replace the pump, do it, replace the soft lines at the same time...and sort the wiring out (replace that trailer cable with the wiring loom off your old cradle)...
    • Well, maybe not. The main feature of Chinese manufacture seems to be incredibly variable quality, coupled with an apparent willingness to find a way to see even the stuff that fails QC. So the military could still take the cream of the production run and somehow sell the "sellable but not really useable" stuff to the stupid round eyes on the other side of the world.
    • Have you adjusted the clutch pedal rod? You can wind it in to shorten it. Just can be a cnut to get to.
