Great job!

Whats next to do?

Ha ha, well..

Clean and polish!

Sort brakes out.

Catch can

Tune, maybe injectors...

Fit a stereo

Nismo MFD and install

Might be around Dural area every now and again! :D

Look forward to the next installment.

Catch can, this is one thing Im looking into at the moment.

Im interested in the Racepace units as seen on Tangomatt's 34 - going to chase up prices.

Is that the combined washer/catchcan? if so sounds good!

Got brakes back from being machined, on a lathe this time and they are better for street now, smooth, but high speed stop or heat in them still makes em shake a bit, so new rotors will be on the list I think. one is looking like it's had a better life.

Just took the car for a drive and it's been great!

Getrag 6speed is noisier at idle and taking off but thats due to the flywheel, no more dual mass.

The 2860-9's are what I'd thought they'd be like :yes: . Great response, meaty mid range and revs out nicely. It's running at 17psi, 1.2BAR on gauge is maxed out lol, injectors are at 90% and knock has a peak of 22, yet to be tuned but runs great.

In 6th gear I see 0.8bar, 12 PSI at 3000RPM. The way it comes on boost is impressive considering the stock cams, manifolds etc. The engine had cam gears already fitted so I haven't touched them.

Pulling out of corners, it just accelerates, so no real problem being in a higher gear too. :)

Let us know how much they are nick :banana:

Fitted up the alpine x types in the front door today, and bitumen deadener, then it rained so I still have to do the passenger side.

That's not my fully sik scubie by the way! :ermm:

Not much money now lol. Lot of it is doing it smart and not throwing money at it without having a plan/goal first. Made that mistake with the 32, spent way too much.

Will post up some pics soon, go away rain!

Thanks Brad and Scott :blink: White is a pain to keep clean!

Audio is pretty much done, still have boot space. Also sorted out the catch can setup. Put a vent/drain into the dipstick hole from the catch can, seems to work well.

May go an alpine sub and mono block later on. A 4x100watt alpine amp is running the front and rear speakers from the audio processor.

Had it dyno tuned the other week and the standard wastegate actuators that I put onto the -9's aren't controlling the wastegates properly at high boost, see dyno graph.

Runs well though and new actuators are on the way. Still running stock injectors and afm's.

Also going to replace compliance cat and sort out exhaust.

Steve-o, maybe....:happy:

Pete, I ended up getting the catch can from just jap in Kirawee, comes with the hose, I bought extra hose to set it up how I wanted it.

Bryn, I'm pretty sure the non vspecs didn't have em as the exhaust temp and intake temp is not shown on the MFD, I could be wrong though as nissan do some strange stuff too. You can fit the rear vspec dump to a non vspec....

    • I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
    • They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to more wrt the other.
    • I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.
    • Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.    
    • I put Whiteline pineapples in my old 33, they came in a 6 pack of them, got rid of the axle tramp altogether, cheap, quick and easy install,  they were pretty solid units though...???high durometer???? and NVH was increased a fair bit How hard are the ones you installed?
