you are a champ :spank:

send me a pm with your details and I'll send you some cash now. cheers.

I think you guys are forgetting that the more pads you put in a package, the higher the freight charge is going to be....

Titanium is pretty heavy remember :P

:spank:

Titanium is actually pretty light. Which is one of the reasons why it is used.

Check the Shadow Can Am car. Number 22 unsurprisingly enough.

I think bass junky was being sarcastic... seeing as how he's an engineeer I'm fairly certain he knows the relative weight of titanium! and actually I didn't think titanium was light as such, just that because of it's strength it can be used in thinner sheets for a given application than you could with alluminium etc. so you get the weight saving because you are using less of it than you would of other materials.

I used to get sarcasm, but since this whole interweb thing happened I can't pick it any more. Much like Ford Prefect. :spank:

Broadly steel density is 7860 kg/m3.

Titanium is about 4400kg/m3.

As for strength well it depends on what type of alloy, but not dissimilar in its range to steel.

Much of its gain/utility is at high temperatures. Aluminium, for example, is complete rubbish at high temps.

Lastly, wtf is it with engineers & Skylines. Am I just conforming to a stereotype being one & having the other, or is there something more too it than that?

You lot should harden up & get some castlated pistons.

can't wait to get these. then I'll fit some hiclones into my brake ducts too just to be sure. maybe a peter brock fuel polariser to up the power now that my brakes will be so kick ass.

Hey Baron, seeing as you are such an expert. If I fit a magnetic fuel expander to my car will it upset the uptake of Orgone energy through the polariser?

you need a brotec MFE-con. it controls the magnetic fuel expander maps to keep it all in harmony with your cars natural feng shui.

and yes I'm a sucker for Ti. I even have a Top Secret Titanium ash tray. :spank:

baron you are a stroker...

lol

can't believe you clowns ordered Ti shims.

do me a favour, when they come, get a gas soldering iron (or one of those little gas brazing jobbies), give one side of the shim a nice going over (say, around 600 degrees), then tell me how hot the other side is

lol

how about I rest one on your nipple whilst you're sleeping then put the gas torch on your knee cap. then try it again without the ti shim and see if there is any appreciable difference? :) or if you will just admit that you are jealous of them we can team up and do it to brisby instead. your call.

What about HPC coating(not sure if thats right like they do with exhaust manfolds you get what I mean :P) the shims? Wouldn't that give you a better thermal resistance than just bare metal on metal...whatever that metal might be?

i saw that andrew, though still skeptical - it's their site pic

would like to be proved wrong though, if it works i'll get on board!

No, the magic beans are ours, you can go spend 5k on a bigger brake kit :)

Even though the theory works, i still don't believe it to much, but we'll see hey.

    • Had another look at the car and I noticed the fuel pump isn't priming on ignition. I'd taken out the pump from the boot to siphon out the old fuel, so maybe I've knocked something loose or broken a wire putting things back together. Will go back with a multimeter and try to work out what's stuffed. Kinda hoping it's the pump itself thats gone so I can upgrade it
    • Yeah agreed, you can't assume that shop are they only people who ever had to work on it. It was just a guess on the mods based on how things were done back then. You can check the Air Flow Meters by the part number on their tags, they are likely either Z32 or Nismo ones (both read about the same but the Z32 one is a little larger while nismo is stock size but supports the higher airflow like a Z32). And yes, all that would get you to 450hp / 340kw To tell what is happening with the turbos, you want a photo of the tag on the core, that will say what it was made out of  (they can retain the front and rear covers to make the plumbing easier)  
    • I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email.

    • So...to my (and my mechanics doing the swap) surprise...the oil pan from NEO engine does not fit 100% and needs to by modified like this: It is not a huge problem but in the future i want a "proper" oil pan. So question is...what different oil pan can i get to fit without any problems and modification? Thanks! 
    • Some more info I found.  These are the last entries Yoshikiyo Fujii made on his blog before he passed away in 2009: http://blog.livedoor.jp/fujii_dynamics/ And finally this is where the workshop was situated:  https://maps.app.goo.gl/HhTPtHzt3WVcBTiEA
