clevite in the states used to make Nismo stock...wouldn't surprise me at all if ACL are now producing them for Nismo.

Some silly people think that Nismo have a factory that produces all their items...lol. Just like HKS also have a similar factory that produces all their items. Most of the production is outsourced to save tooling up on specialist items...makes perfect business sense.

OS Giken 3 litre crankshafts are actually made in Australia, but due to contractural agreement you cannot buy them here.

Nothing wrong with ACL stuff...mine see's over 1000hp crank...Mark's engine sees 1500hp crank...both use off the shelf ACL's.

Tell me about it...

Getting stuff here in japan is by no means just walking in the door and asking the monkey at the counter!!

Always have to order and the wait can be months!!

I've learned not to bang my head against brick walls anymore..it hurts too much

Sometimes you get suprised but!

      Recomended Coolant For Gt T R34

      By silviaz · Posted

      The nissan manual says to change coolant every 2 years. Is this still necessary if you're using coolant like Penrite or nulon which has improved over the years? It says it lasts 500,000km which seems hard to believe lol.

      Nismo rear spats

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      According to the Muse website, totally different material. The originals were that horrible solid foam rubber that was used for a lot of rear spoiler/flap things, like on Mitsu Galan GSRs. Heavy, and with enough compressibility/flex that any paint on them would crack fairly quickly. The Muse ones are just ABS, which is obviously similar to GTR lower front lip, etc etc. ABS is a good choice if you have the ability to tool up for it. The only thing better might be TPU-RIM or something equivalent. The TPUs were good. Plenty of flexibility (in twisting, bending, etc) but not really in compression.

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By Wazmond · Posted

      Update 24/01/2025:    Bought a GReddy/Trust Intercooler (crossflow spec-LS) that was meant for a R33 GTST $871 AUD shipped, and a GReddy Profec boost controller $483 AUD, both brand new from Japan. Being honest, I would've thought the intercooler kit was discontinued but I guess not yet. Decided due to funds + time, I'll stick with a nistune on this stock-ish setup ( stock turbo set to probably 10-12psi ) and have it run cleaner ( suspect the 3" turbo back etc has sh*tted on my economy ) for my trip down south soon for the WSBK. Hopefully I can get it all installed and tuned by then. As for who I am getting it tuned with, I will be going with Toshi, (not hearing back from DVS so scratch that). There is also Birrong Auto but not sure if they do nistune installations and if they even tune it... Otherwise, anyone know where I can get my hands on an aluminium intake/suction pipe for an RB25DET NEO?

      The german cars I've worked on seem to have that issue(in more than just headlights). Mostly where hot, but also just the insulation hardening and cracking in various places. Not abnormal from what ive seen.

      According to the Muse website, similar material, but not the same. Meant to help with stopping the paint cracking. In saying that, I had genuine ones on my last grt, and never had that problem.   Could you post pics when you get them? Very much thinking of buying the Muse ones over fibreglass.
