Well I figure its about time I did a little update on the R30 I brought 6months or so back.

Im not posting any photos yet as I want to do a before and after piece.

however I have since getting it done the following..

-stripped and replaced the interior and fitted recaro seats

-added gauges oil,water,volts

-fitted blitz SBC ID 2 boost controller

-facelift front, all but the bonnet

-fitted 17” original goods wheels

-exhaust changed 3’ right through

-new intake and filter

-stripped all sound deadening all 32.3kgs worth!

-fitted genuine mirrors

-fitted R32 brakes (still figuring out the best option for tie rods)

-s13 coilovers front

-r33 coilovers rear

-10mm rear wheel spacers (when you see pics you will understand)

-standard side skirts fitted

-two tone paint

Also on the weekend I did a dyno day just thought id see how she was going..

Now the engine is 2.2ltr has forged pistons a full metal head gasket plus a Vg30 turbo with large intercooler a bosch 650hp fuel pump and a mines computer it has standard injectors..

It made 171.5rwkw@ 14.3 psi but was starting to lean so it could not run higher than that the tuner said with bigger injectors it would easily go way past there saying it felt very strong..

How ever im happy with this power for now it wont put the power to the road until 3rd anyway and am running 235s!

How big you want the injectors Marc?

I have a NEW set of 570cc Siemens Deka injectors I probably wont be using, but need a 14mm O'ring fuel rail to fit them.

Also 6 x 460cc S2 RX7 and connector plugs to suit that you can have real cheap.

Your stock injectors are 375cc.

"a full metal head gasket"

Your gunna be sooooorrry!

Where is your safety valve, for when you detonate for lean out, or a bad dose of fuel, or whatever?

what who when where? lol gasket was prefitted i didnt put it on the car it seems fine i think ill be fine..

im not sure about injectors at this point ill probably just get 510cc mitsubishi ones but not sure just yet it all depends on if i want to go further with it which at this point i dont.

iv got the car weighing 1073kgs with me in it so that plus 171kw its very quick imo..

as for pics they will come but i want to finish it first so i can do before and after

AAAAAH this car!! I know it well...Randy from Nissco (in Halbert St Bayswater) built it with his son Vincent (orig owner a few years back)

They commented that it was one of the only FJ's they had to chain down on the dyno as it kept trying to jump off the rollers! Came on boost VERY hard.

WOW this looks so much better too... what did you use for the lower half paint? details???

I really like the rims, they look like what was going around in 1984. What $$$ you chasing?

Get it finished for the Skyline Nationals too, only a few months to go. September.

    • IMG_8641.mov     She doesn’t sound the best but starts with out using any gas now. I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub
    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
