Short story...

Went up to Mt Baw Baw, car was good and really fast on boost, heaps of grip but still slides nicely. Got to the top and ba bow! Split a heater hose and dumped all the fluid in the car park :P

Spent and hr trying to fix it with the ski teams tools and garage but no deal, so RACV Total Care to the rescue, got home at midnight :down:

Anyone know where I can get a heater hose kit OTHER THAN Nissan? They say only comes from Japan and looking at $200 for 3 hoses!

Thats ma girl!!!

Hahaha fkn thing!

Ask Just Jap to get some in. They do a whole GTR engine set for $300, so surely they must have a contact for an RB20 one?

JK

i mite have some off the r32. bring the broken hoses on sat and u can match em up with wats there

i thought Mt Baw Baw roads are too tight for any slip?

Ah cool...I'll pull it off and see what we can do.

Most of it is tight but there are a lot of good corners for sliding, although with so much lag I could only do a few open ones (and the surface there is mostly crap)

dang... chaser or mark II?

Chaser....hope he got it out ok :S

It was resting up against a tree and looked like roof damage but have to wait and see how it pans out. Made me appreciate my 10k Nissan. If I crash.....RESHELL :)

So it was recommended to me that to rekindle my love for the Cefiro I should give it a wash and polish (for the first time in a year of owning it).

Utilising my day off work for Uni exam study, I went and polished it up...bit of a difference hahaha! You may notice something missing in these pics...A FKN REAR BUMPER :P

Surprise! Swapped the Rega's for a set of Work Kai's (17 x 9 +17 all round) and lowered the car onto them.

Also discovered a lot of oil in the turbo intake coming from the catch can so that will be the next job, re-route that shit!

    • Yes, the problem is the supply chain hasn't standardized on metric which makes it more expensive to source metric hardware. They're all mail order at this point. Fastenal is cheap but you can't exactly rock up to a fulfillment warehouse as a random D2C. Paying 13 USD for 3 nuts doesn't really make sense. McMaster-Carr and similar companies are all in a similar sort of boat. If you like gambling on mystery hardware Amazon is cheap too but you're going to be buying 25 of whatever screw you need. So Lowes/Home Depot ends up being the way to go if you really only need small quantities of hardware for odd jobs like trying to rebuild a power steering pump that calls for an m6x1.0 screw to pop out the flow control valve. 
    • What size bolts did you use to reattach the cam cover baffles? Thinking it will need to be M3-M4
    • Yeah one of the first things I out in when I started having catch can filling up issues. Still prefer to empty 1-2 times a track day rather than every session
    • You'll find this link is probably more useful  Performance Turbochargers - Garrett - G GT GTX GTW Series Turbo TBG G35 1150 map may not even get added to my list depending on how it looks, the G35 1050 already is a mixed bag for making the numbers you would expect from the compressor map due to mismatch - I don't know how another 10lb/min of compressor flow is going to make that any better.   I've left out others for similar reasons as it's already getting quite big.   In terms of Precision, provide me with legit compressor maps for them and I'll do my thing   I'll add some more of the newer Xona Rotor options are they're pretty boss, I'd take a 68mm Xona over a G35 "1150" any day of the week - or Precision for that matter.
    • Ahh got it. Well maybe install a drain for the catch can somewhere down low and accessible like a wheel well too....
