Spotted! me driving like a grandma because my cluctch slipped to the point where it revs whenever you put your foot down! hooray! booked it in with Ed, looking at $1000 for a new Exedy clutch installed, apparently slightly better than stock. I'm not a lead foot so it should do, but ouch! $1000 so close to christmas! i could cry!

Sounds like me!!!

My clutch is ***ced.... Does the exact same thing... Im after the Exedy Ceramic clutch, got prices for just the clutch.. comes to around $1000..

But all depends if all goes well.... Ill be driving outta here awith a GTR.... :P

Thumbs crossed!

Hmmm - building that stinks?

yeah it smells REALLY bad, dunno what they do there, but it is down the road from the "mouse house" (where they do testing on rats). sometimes whent the wind goes the right way,the smell covers the whole site (across the road)

yesterday near the golf course on H'marsh Dr, black 32 GTSt heading towards F'wick. sorry was too busy gawking in the mirror because I thought there was a 'line behind me. saw 4 of the best tailights in the business disappearing and thought bugger, missed one.

Coulda been me, what time was it?

had it done with Joe at skyline performance, couldnt have asked for a better job really, only cost me $310(cash) which was around $150 cheaper than anywhere else i got a quote from, i had to wait a few minutes longer than he said it would be so when it came to pay time instead of 350 he said 310, he's really quiet but he does good work and im always happy to take my car there, but if ed will fit it for the same price then i'd ask you to go there, purely cause he's done so much for alot of us.

    • Another question sorry, what stainless do u use in the turbo external WG plumb back piping? Is it 321, 316 or 304?
    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
