Ok the new injectors,valve springs and engine mounts arrived.But it looks like i have wrong mounts :banana:

The ARP exhaust manifold bolts also arrived,and finally that completes all the ordering for the build.

Now its all the small things i have to the running around for.

Things like a universal mount for the Greddy oil catch can.

Getting the rocker covers painted.

Working out the lengths for all the braided lines.

I have to clean the engine bay :/ im trying to think of a way to clean it without removing all the lines and hoses.As its not that dirty im thinking of spraying the front clips and fire wall with some sort of cleaning solution,letting it sit for 2mins and hosing it all off.Then hopping in with a rag to get all the stubborn stuff.

What would you recommend? Quick detailer? Maybe something a bit harsher?

if you've got a compressor just hook up some hot water mixed with concentrated degreaser (which you can get from bunnings) into one of those spray can things you can get as an attachment. would probably be better for getting the grease off cause you can mix degreaser into it. thats what i do.

Once it's getting reassembled and you've worked out exact dollar signs it'll come together and you'll start to feel great :blink:

I'd love to do what you're doing, looks exciting and engrossing. You'll be having some serious fun when it's complete :)

Love the pics. Keep em coming.

Dont work out the exact dollars; it ruins the enjoyment!

OK all, today everything was delivered to Paul. Top bloke :P and was even lucky enough go for a blast in the GTR. Which was insane! Its not everyday you get to ride in a genuine 9 sec GTR :D

BP98 with 6 deg total timing removed @ 15 psi and 1/2 throttle is not really the way to show off the car...

but...

im sure you got the idea how nuts it is to drive. :D

Just another small update.

When i bought the 3037 a few months back i noticed it had a 4 inch diameter inlet,and thought i would have to either put a 4inch step down to 3inch silicone joiner on the turbo or try and hide the joiner in a custom CAI with the AFM,as the AFM diameter is 3inch.Neither of them tickled my fancy so...

It just so happends, i managed to get my hands on a Haltech E11v2.

So my beloved Power FC and Z32 AFM are for sale.Look in the for sale section for the thread :laugh:

      The FD RX7 is the best looking 90's JDM car

      Well it does have a motor with the same DNA as an Accord V6 motor. The J30A is a successor to the Tiger rice cooker C32A motor found in those cars.

      FD RX7 I would probably marry if legal R32 GTR is toughest NSX looks like it's made from leftover Prelude and Accord bits

      R34 Wheel Alignment Specs

      By silviaz · Posted

      When going to a suspension shop should I send them the default nissan settings or just let them do their own thing? I ask this because I have aftermarket rear camber arms and my car is lowered a bit (front end is basically stock after I change to those nismo bushes)

      Squeaky bushes

      Ok sounds good, thanks for your help. Hopefully if I end up changing it to the nismo bushes I don't get that veering issue. I don't think there's a point in lubing up these bushes again. Weird that it it makes just as much noise with all the grease inside it versus without grease prior to removal. Bizarre.

      Yeah, you don't need camber bushes on stock arms to make a car drive straight unless it's got another problem. F'rigsample, slide the thing into a kerb, bend the front subframe mounts a little....subframe is now twisted, shifted or otherwise in the wrong spot...and you need to do funky stuff with the wheel alignment to get it to drive straight. Maybe a little more caster on one side, or a little more camber. FWIW, I can have my camber off side to side by a half a degree or more, and either way, so more one side, or more on the other, and the car doesn't really want to pull to one side. It will definitely ride road camber differently, and want to track uphill (ie, towards the centreline when on the LHS of a normal crowned piece of road, like it should) or want to roll downhill (which it really shouldn't). But on fairly flat road surfaces, like the middle of a 3 or 4 lane motorway, a half a degree either way doesn't make a lot of difference. I sometimes do quite a few miles with my wheel alignment messed up, because I don't always get a chance to set it right again after a serious dismantling, before I have to drive it to work again. Like, a whole week's worth of daily shuffle.
