Lmfao, granted I thought he was reffering to the GTS-T, I just ment having a 6 cylinder car straight out of having your licence is a bit worrying, I don't know maybe it's just me but I slowly worked my way up to there, I didn't mean any offence by it at all, I just thought common sense would prevail here.

Statistic as in young driver doing something stupid and bringing shit on us all, not saying he will, not saying he wont, it was just an observation.

Ah it's good to be back on the boards again ... lmfao.

The dude who had done this was still at maccas wen the police let us go and i briefly heard them askin him y he was drivin someone elses car around at this time of night doin this he was also driving an unroadworthy car.

And the security guard that was sitting at maccas with the crazy man tellin my mate how everytime he sees a skyline theres trouble always wanting to race him and hooning around. Its great the way ppl look at u becos u own a certain car.

But wouldnt trade my car for anything!

You've only had your licence 3 months and you own a skyline? Shit I waited at least a year and a half before I did. Shit, enjoy being a statistic.

A year and a half? shit, i waited 3 years before getting mine. haha. (just messing around), may or may not have been because i couldn't afford one. :D

Well the guys daughter or something might have been killed by a skyline driver, and he just cant get over it. There are people like that out there.

yeah that was my inclination too, i wouldn't be at all surprised if old mate has some deep trauma relating to sports cars.

Ivonin, its funny you say that about working your way up in engine size, myself and a good mate of mine were the only two who owned big 6's and 8's in our high school years and we are now the only ones who have never had a crash of any kind. all my other mates however, ridding in 3 and 4 bangers all managed to hit something.

HAHA deep burning hatred for sports cars couldve been the only reason!

Yer i know heaps of ppl that drive little cars and hit shit all the time wen u have a nice car u are so much more careful parking and of other idiots on the road.

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
