Sorry I meant the black interior with the grey/silver inserts.  I've never seen one (or pics) with the red insert interior (or any exterior colour other than white for that matter... do you have pics of yours :D)

I picked up a Recaro for mine today at Jaustech, its a bit thrashed out but had the most aggressive bolsters of all their seats.   Also got a GReddy adjustable overboost valve

I need to get the rails done for the seat though

I take it noone has replaced the bushes in their block to strut tower brace??????

btw Ghostrider... do you have two coupes?

No! just one PNV that is white/siver. Although, if the PNV hadn't come along when it did, my MR30 4 door Ti Hatch was going to become a 2 door. I had all the sides lined up in Japan to come over. An estimated $6000.00 was going to be the cost to make a 2 door Ti Hatch. Interesting concept eh!!!!

I know what you meant about interior, I have asked him to send me some pics of his blue sedan incl interior. My pics are to large, to many KB's for this site, when my digital arrives I will take some more and post them.

As for your bush repacement, I am looking for a damper, rather than a fixed brace. Jenesis sells one in Japan, but there must be something here in OZ that is similar.

just found this pic in the r31 club, its from the SAU show and shine held recently is it anyones here??

Not me!!!!! thank christ, it looks pretty bland don't you think, looks a bit ordinary, should be lowered to hell and some fats and my body kit.

HIGHER?????????

You absolutely sure???????

You mean higher numbers or higher ratio???

Yes higher!! Pretty simple thing to work out isnt it...I want a HIGHER ratio diff centre!! Would prefer to **** this clutch pack shit off as well and go mechanical but can't see that happening in a hurry..So rebuilding the and shimming the centre is on the cards as well now!!

Does anyone know what the rough sorta price for a dump pipe is to be made??? I need one made soonish but as i've got a full kakimoto exhuast on my car im not really in the mood for cutting it up!!!

OK Shane,

260Z's came out with R200 mechanical open 3.7:1 standard. That would be the easiest way, get one of them & change the LSD centre to it.

Ummm don't i losse the effect of LSD then mate? Or are u saying that the 260z's came centre can be rebuilt into an LSD??

As I see it, the LSD part of the centre is interchangeable with other R200 crown & pinions.

Therefore you would use your LSD with the 260 gears, making a 3.7:1 LSD package when completed.

I have a 3.692:1 (3.7) viscous LSD centre from an R32 here, that would be cheap & I'm told the centres can be swapped into the long nose case.

I was lead to believe that the long nose centres and the short nose centre's arnt interchangeable??

    • Because there is still an engine underneath that turbo. PSI is not a measurement of power, it's a byproduct of resistance. What would be really decent is to have a CFM gauge on the output of a turbo to see how much it's actually pushing. 21psi (as an example) is not the same amount of air at 3000rpm as it is at 7000rpm, even if the boost controller is controlling boost at "21psi". The engine is inhaling and exhaling way more air at 7000 than at 3000, even if it's less efficient.
    • don't want anything more or less, I don't really understand why the torque still goes up to 6000-6500, while the boost peak is around 4000. if it only comes from the cams or from the boost controller etc.  
    • I'm not sure you understand the physics of what you are asking. Can you draw on the dyno graph what you want to have happen? I'm thinking this is a functional impossibility here, unless you chose a turbo literally so laggy that torque is at max at 7000rpm and artificially choked prior to that. Power and Torque are intrinsically linked. Power is just Torque over time. What you're really seeing in the torque graph is "Power per RPM" if that makes any sense whatsoever. You still get more power at 7000rpm than 5000rpm, because it is "power per RPM" and you have more RPM. at 7000 than you do at 5000. You still feel more powerful at 7000rpm. The torque graph will influence the rate of power increase per RPM.
    • Welcome!  If possible,  would live to see some pics. How long was it away getting the work done? Hopefully it feels like a new machine.
    • yes indeed the graphic format makes a visual difference but there is on average 120nm more between 4000 and 6000rpm on the curves it is not nothing. you are right, the cams influence the torque curve. I was able to chat with one of the Hypergear tuners, he confirmed that a boost control allows you to manage the pressure after the spool. the absolute pressure (psi) on the graphics is measured where? It seems that the cams affect the maximum pressure depending on the regime but I may be wrong.   not pleasant to drive before 4000? if we spend our lives between 1000 and 3000 rpm as you say then we might as well just run diesel turbos
