Oh noes! The first pass didn't go well I take it?

Maybe have a chat to some compliance shops and see if they have one you can borrow for a day or 2?

I could help you with stock cat

Thanks Sean ill be in contact soon if i need it, im unsure what im gonna do now i got a few dramas with this car passing the pits lol.

Dale yer not good news, I need to swap the engine for a stock engine with low mount twin turbos and stock ecu if possible to pass easy, i got picked on major stuff last inspection and need full mod approval.

i got picked for no engine number, engine conversion, auto to manual conversion, suspension, brakes, emmisions, turbo, etc etc pretty much the whole damn lot :)

i got a few options now, i have recently bought a low compression rb26 complete so i will build that with some forgies and chuck it in with some low mount turbos in the future, im thinking strip mine out now and hand the rego in and track it for a while and see how it goes, i wanna go back to the drags atleast before it gets a new motor and run a 10 second pass, i got a big tune booked for 3-4 weeks away to so ill be on race fuel and about 26-28psi boost (instead of 18psi). Ill see how light the stagea can get as well with everything out.

these are just a couple of ideas i am thinking of at the moment, ill see what happens in next few days

i'll swap ya mine :)

i'll swap ya mine :)

when i saw ya reply i was hoping u had an exhuast to offer....lol

i have a stock motor here i just gotta throw in some forgies and rings and bearings and its good to go, problem is i want to do a rb26/30 instead which makes things difficult really at the pits :) I had a chat to my engineer mate and he thinks if i submit the mod forms and dont list the cams and ecu and see what happens at inspection time, ill just get approval for the other crap and hope to hell i get a good bloke down at welshpool pits :(

sorry for getting ur hopes up!! i dont even have the car yet let alone a zorst!!

hmm rb30 yeah mite be hard to pass. Fill in the mod permit form for sure and dont mention the good stuff. Do you have to take it over the pits in whelshpool? My mates GTR passed down here (bunbury) with simialar mods, all we did was plumb in the gate and lift it.

    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
