Then again.. no gate.. not interested

[GTRsean]

Meh....phone issues, you know....

So no tune for now. Rebuilt a Gmax nismo twin plate for it though, $400 a plate!.

[bored33]

[Skyliensusky]

[GTRsean]

not enough time its not tuned yet!! Taking a few of your ideas and items though

im keen to compare, but all about to change once my engine goes back in

[GTRsean]

Yeah Nick I have ideas for the next stage, but $$$$$, I'll just max the potential of the current setup...for now

How long before yours is back on the blacktop?

[levinboy]

Should hopefully be 2-3weeks waiting on parts from Japan

Might have a few rareish carbon items too well I think it's rare haven't seen anyone here who has one

Oh yes I know this =) My engine was broken in october 2010... My car is in rebuild since that date... I hope I can finish the rebuild in the next few weeks. And than, sitting in the car, feel the rb26...oh, yeah I think I will forget all the months without the car and I will forget all the money I spent in the car^^

[levinboy]

Have you got a full tune yet??

[GTRsean]

Haha not yet, just got back from sunny QLD.

Replaced the front drivers side diff seal and new diff oil yesterday so hopefully no more leak

Car is up in the air ready for me to switch out clutch for the new one.

[SHOWOFFR32]

Haha nice, what clutch you go for??

[r32-25t]

Better be a nismo or you'll never hear the end of it

[GTRsean]

Thanks Brad! Yours will be a monster!!

Still have not done clutch...had to keep it on the road due to things popping up and arriving short notice . Was worth it though!

The clutch is a Nismo gmax twin plate (Brett) , that I got second hand, cleaned, inspected and rebuilt with new clutch discs.

I'm currently half way through getting brembo bits to take the brakes back to something more streetable...

New scuff plates..

[God_speed]

New scuff plates..

Tasty!

[GTRsean]

So, went to a workshop to borrow their hoist to do a clutch change....

End of the day car is still in the air...

First the new spigot bearing that was just fitted failed, spat out all it's needle rollers, so I had to pull that crap out then fit a bronze bush which I usually stick to.

The nismo twin I bought was actually from an R33GTR and won't work with a 34 due to different height, which I knew.

It was sold to me as a 34GTR clutch/flywheel and had 34GTR paint markered on it. Place is well known for jap spares and engines, and are usually on the ball.

So after a lot of cursing, I borrowed the courtesy car and went home to check my spare nismo gmax twin I got from flee bay. Wow it was a 34GTR clutch, and this one I can actually use as it is the right height.

So I will finish my install tomorrow....

[God_speed]

Was the spigot bearing an original Nissan part? Why did it fail, just through wear and tear?

they look good! was thinking of getting them for my R34 GTT but wasn't sure how they were fitted, looks like you screwed them in?

no way of them fitting like stock with the clips on the back.

Good to see you got the car back on the road, Sean
