Trying to split my time between MCITP study, Relearning guitar(function fingers, FUNCTION) and getting as much time outside in forest as possible for general wellbeing... not much whoring from me! Plus work/social commitments etc.

How are we all?

Did some pretty huge mods today, they took ages.

From this

If you are going to sell the car I wouldn't bother putting any of that stuff on as it won't increase the resale price much. Is it an auto or manual. S1 or S2?

If you are going to install all that stuff - you will only need one cam gear - best to keep the VCT on the inlet side (assuming you have an RB25DET and not an RB26DETT). I am not familiar with your turbo but without a new afm you will be limited to about 230 - 240 awkw. Are you sure GTR injectors will fit your engine?

Any way I will be interested to see how it goes!

How is, ryan?. Im completing a MCITP Enterprise Administrator certification atm. I got to brush up on my AD and group policy. Has been a total head fark compared to Server 2003. Its really hard to "unlearn" something and do it the Microsoft way. Ill see where this industry qual gets me, bloody cost me enough. At least its not the CNNP yet. Ive been working in the private sector with VOIP and VMWare as of late. Its been too long since i last picked up my strat, you've inspired me again man.

Yea i know that putting this stuff on the car is not going to boost the price a lot but i wanted this stuff done to it only reason the car is really on the market is to keep the missus happy and if someone comes up with a decent offer ill let it go. The turbo is the same as a kkr560 and from what i have been told the GTR injectors will fit in the car if not ill just sell them off and buy another set, also cheers for the heads up on the AFM will buy a Z32 one when i am home tomorrow due to f**king my shoulder up on site.

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
