Not as yet I only received it this week! I plan to put it on in December as I have a few other parts I need to collect to upgrade the fuel side of things at the same time

I'll take some photo's when i'm doing it all if you would like :)

I'm interested to see how they added the VQ35 hydraulic cam actuator to the front of the camshaft and got it all to work.

My VQ25 runs an electric clutch CV arrangement instead, which may be easier to retrofit as it doesn't need the hydraulic lines. I always wondered why HKS went the external oil feed path... If you could post pics in a Vcam thread I would appreciate it.

Should be a great addition, but I hope you have the valve clearance. Those actuators can advance 50 degrees. Who will be tuning it?

Oh sorry I thought you meant about the turbo install.

I actually bought the car with the vcam already installed. It's currently running the the vcam controller and an fcon v pro which i'll be keeping for the time being.

Will be retuned on e85 with the new setup and will more than likely be done by tunehouse (fairly limited when it comes to tuners that can tune an fcon and vcam)

It will be more responsive and make more power. Everywhere. A guy on NS put a 6758 (bigger) on his SR and it was a bit like a V8 in terms of delivery.

Wait for the 7163, that might be a game changer.

If I got the 6258 and a manifold to suit, would would I have to convert the rear housing to a t3, or is it feasible to run a t25 housing on an rb? i.e. too much of a bottleneck not enough room etc.

No it will be fine. The best thing to do will be to have a good fabricator cut off the T2 flange and weld on a nicely shaped reducer and a T3 flange.

The housing is stainless so you can weld on a stainless T3 flange no hassle.

Read the last 5 pages of this thread as we have been discussing exactly this (i want a T3 7163).

Also, is go a bit larger and get the 6758 or 7163 as the 20s like to rev :-)

New turbine/housing options listed on match bot too.

Also found an awesome read on mixed flow turbine wheels with a mention of the pros/cons of using TiAl - http://www.hindawi.com/journals/ijrm/2012/589720/

Needless to say, I'm very excited about the 7163 in 0.80 twin scroll (although I hope the 0.80 comes out for my 7064 because I'm not changing turbos any time soon)

    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
