put my remsa pads in today and gave them a quick bed in (probably need more tho)

i still have a squeal (thought it was the old shims and pads up front) but it could be the rears :(

can't complain about the pads, great bite and grip, haven't heated them up much yet tho but i think they will be better than the old pads

fitted the BC racing suspension today...against dale's recommendation, i lowered the fronts a bit morewhistling.gif

now i got a car that is slanted to the front, checked underneath, distance between undertray and the road is about 6-7cm...took it for a test drive, couldn't see the headlights of the cars right behind me unless it's a 4wd pinch.gif

gonna raise up the fronts tomorrow then get a wheel alignment done, the rears are toeing in pretty badyucky.gif

that should happen on pretty much all auto transmissions. except ones that have a 'neutral idle'. ohh and start-stop equipped cars

Nah it never did it before the shift kit. More like a thud. Doesn't do it if the cars warm though

i picked up out NM35 Stagea from the compliance shop yesterday, registered and ready to go! With a day off today Im trying to decide if I should fit the Tanabe sus (at home on stands) or wait until next week so I can get it on my mates hoist.

Overall just excited to have it and start some work on it.

do it on the stands, just have a spare jack handy for the rear spring!

took me a few hours overall!

Let me know when it's fitted, I want to check it out!

    • Because that’s not what any of them are building these heads or blocks for. It’s to hold over over 1000hp at the wheels without breaking and none of that stuff is required to make power 
    • Dort sounds above 3k rpm are dorty 🤣 I might krinkle black the alloy 🤔
    • It makes you wonder, all these people starting to make a billet replacement head, I wonder if any have thought about trying to adapt tech from newer engines into them. You're already at the full design stage to make a billet head... Why not really spice it up and had some more modern tech into the mix too...
    • Connect all the plumbing up properly. The actual worst part about having the turbo unable to actually build boost, is you can and likely would over soon the turbo if you drove the car (free rev while stationary isnt likely to manage it).   If you do have an air leak as Duncan suggested, you'll have a bad time as the AFM will be saying different to reality.   As you have had the engine out, I'd go over all electrical connections again. If you have a consult cable, plug it in, and see what the ECU thinks is going on. Did you touch the timing belt? If so, double check your timing on the gears is correct AND put a timing light on it while it's idling and see what ignition setting you have. Is the AFM you've installed the one that was in the car previously? You said you replaced seals, what seals exactly? What have you had apart?   From memory when I had my RB25DET with factory throttle, there was two plugs the TPS plug on the loom could go to. One would leave the car running like shit, the other made it work, I think one plug on the TPS area was for something else (an option). It's too many years since I saw that part of the loom to remember properly though.   Is the car idling smooth (as smooth as an RB can)? Does it smell fuelled up?   I have a feeling either timing in timing belt is off, or a sensor isn't right.
    • Theres still skid pan and motokhana days up in QLD at least that are $100 or less. The ones that are ran as "driver training" less so, they're expensive, but just normal skid pan days like SAU ran are still low cost. And thats one of the places I learned to be a lariken, purely by asking for passenger rides, and how people were doing crazy things. Reese gave me plenty of pointers back in the day for skid pan! And yes Duncan, I will never forget your pointers for track work. Especially after Neil got out saying "I am NEVER getting in the car with him again!" 😛
