What Have You Done To Your Stagea Lately?

[scotty nm35]

Scott- just build a 3.5 or 3.8- then go to a GT35.

You know you want to!

Lol, but how would I get the cams to work?

VQ25 FTW...

Just sleeve yours out! Wouldn't that work? Then just use some of the darton sleves with some bigger pistons / tomei rods and bolt it all back with your heads.

Work or not?

Your growing an engine farm down there, so just build one of the spare short blocks!

I could sleeve it out, I have a 3.5 engine here too, but why would I want a longer stroke or a larger piston when i'm making 335kw already? C'mon mate you really need to catch up...

I will probably drop the 2.5dd in if this engine ever retires. High comp, e85 and direct water injection to control the piston temps.

Did you want the dyno queen status, or want me to go faster than 13.9?

[scotty nm35]

Hahaha. Think your car is good for it Alex? Wind the wick up and see what she will do, you got to beat 13.5. Can you take off with wheelspin yet?

My takeoff would be fixed by simply opening up the stator on the torque converter but I don't want to go down that path. I want a fast street car not drag.

Lol. Yeah it actually does it I launch it with full boost. Maybe a product of the single spinner but

I have too much mechanical sympathy to flog it hard. I'm going to order some stuff, and then back to the tuner. Might go to the track in between though. Craig has to get to the tuner- cause he want to post a time too with the emanage in.

Was looking at my rear badge i removed and found a better spot for it

Painted the slats after the side rear windows black and the lower section of the dayz rear bar black also.

and in an attempt to get to the bottom of why my rear sunroof doesn't quite seal all they way, i fully stripped my rear interior. Haven't started looking into rear sunroof yet LOL

Car needs a bloody good wash now but i'm buggered. fk it

Be interested to see more photos of the roof when you get time. Don't you hate it how you have to start from the bottom and work your way up.

Haven't fully removed roof lining yet but am going to. Here is shot of the rear roof section that i've removed the lining from.

I was a little frustrated at first and then I quite enjoyed stripping everything out as there was alot of heavy stuff !! I also found a japanese receipt under the rear seat (anyone know what it is from ?)

I also sanded and polished my neo badge as it was unrecognisable !

what did you use on it? mine looks pretty crappy too

also, i think that receipt could be for fuel

I first used 1200 sandpaper on a block of cork. Then I used a scotch brite pad with autosol, lastly autosol and a rag. I also polished up a dull front head light with autosol and a polish mop on my 18v ryobi drill.

Fuel receipt eh ? cool !

[GTR260]

Before with tomei M7655 twins which were laggy and very tame onto boost

Now with the GT3582R (.82) rear, precision 48mm waste gate ,Platinum Pro ecu, 044 fuel pump and ID1000's. Should be a big improvement. hope the clutch holds up

Booked into Tuner on the 24th may

[Sydsyd]

It's finally there!

New hi-flow turbo in transit to me so was under the car to pull out the old one with the blown oil seal. The first thing I see was a split drivers side CV boot & the grease spun out everywhere. Great just what I need - more work.

Then, over on the passenger side I see this:

I wonder how this got knocked out of centre?? So, what's the recommended fix? (Big hammer, lol).

[PN-Mad]

Found a small stone chip in my drivers side headlight today. Fuuuuuu.....

Considering the $2500 cost from Nissan, I've live with it. Its small and over the indicator, no hole or anything just a little crack.

Felt so sorry for it, spent the next 45mins or so polishing up the headlights to keep that nasty yellow shit away.

That is exactly the same as my passenger side. Im putting in new ones tomorrow I just had to wait to get on a hoist. I wouldn't bother hitting it I hit mine back and within 2 days it was back.

Yep; the centre has been torn out of that bush. She's f**ked.

Leon, I've got a fresh set of Whiteline ones that were due to go into my car shortly; if you like, PM me, and I'll send 'em up.
