killler setup i hope it works out, im sure it will with the guys your working with. I would swap out the 38mm gate though for something a bit bigger it is marginal at best with a 3037.

You wanna see it!?

Ive been walk drifting around my house and making screamer pipe noises! Haha

Paul broke 2 bones in his foot,then got sick and the machinest wife had a baby.Boy did pick a good month to get a motor built.

blocks been acid tanked, crack tested, decked, bored and honed. Crank collar was machined on today and journals polished. Head has been stripped late this afternoon.

im planning on doing the same thing in the near future, can you give me an estimate on what the block work will cost me?

so far all i have on the list is:

forged pistons

upgraded rods, unsure of which ones

N1 oil and water pump.

thats purely internals, dont know what im doing with the head yet, just trying to figure out what i want and what its going to cost.

Head was done on friday. Full head service,new Tomei cams and Tomei valves springs put in.

Everythings nice and pretty so ive been told.

JUN collar fitted to crank.Crank,rods and pistons were sent away to be balanced.Should be back by the end of the week for assembly.

Home stretch!! :(

    • 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  
    • 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)
    • 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.
