is that all fast is..., all it tells me is my car has 2 doors, and an rb25 and is gunmetal grey..AMAZING!!...

I though it gave a list of how many owners etc...what is the point of it...?

Fast will Also tell you what options your vehicle came specced with.

EPC-Data is good but when searching parts it can be a bit confusing cus it's pretty vague with its descriptions.

For instance that link Simon posted up

20010 - TUBE ASSY-EXHAUST,FRONT

20018 - TUBE ASSY-EXHAUST CONNECT,FRONT

20020B - NUT

20020BA - NUT

20020BB - NUT

20100 - MUFFLER ASSY-EXHAUST MAIN

20651M - MOUNTING-EXHAUST,RUBBER

20651MA - MOUNTING-EXHAUST,RUBBER

20651MB - MOUNTING-EXHAUST,RUBBER

20651MC - MOUNTING-EXHAUST,RUBBER

20651MD - MOUNTING-EXHAUST,RUBBER

20691 - GASKET-EXHAUST

20692M - GASKET-EXHAUST

20692MA - GASKET-EXHAUST

Whereas in Fast you goto General Index, Engine & Fuel & click on the picture of the exhaust and it'll give you...

Where you can click on the part codes for which gasket/hanger/nut you actually need and get the part number from it.

There's a few versions kicking around the net if you do a Google search or genuine Fast discs of various versions come up all the time on Yahoo Japan.

I'm running the 2001 catalogs and 2009 catalogs on the 2012 Fast program cus then I have more models/up to date program and for some reason the '12 program runs the '09 Jap catalogues in English wish is pretty handy.

I remember trying to get it working years ago, and it was so stupidly complicated so I gave up.

16bit vs 32bit vs 64bit

English vs Japanese, no JP Character Set on my computer so JP Symbols were coming up as "????"

/ragequit

2012 Version comes in 64 bit, Jap characters will come up as gobblydygook either way cus it uses Shift-JIS character encoding instead of ANSI/Unicode and I don't know how to get non Jap windows to support it.

What will you talk about today at the conference Hamish?I've always wondered what do people talk about in one of these things.

what I do at the bank and how it effects other stakeholders etc etc

    • LS is a good motor, but it hurts my soul when I see it in a RB. Guess it fixes the oiling issues lol.
    • I'm confused. Does this qualify as "Gregging" or are you somehow avoiding the Gregging?
    • More assembly going on, with all sorts of "bolt right on bro" scenarios going on here. Smartly, PTV clearance was checked. And I say smartly because it turns out that the intake was 0.009" from piston meeting valve. This is 0.23mm. This is very not okay. A fast meeting was facilitated between engine builder in Australia and engine builder in the USA which was actually incredibly helpful and constructive actually, various ideas thrown around to get around this issue including: 1) Retard the cam timing which would have brought the exhaust valve closer to meeting piston (it was 0.065") which was uncomfortably close to begin with, and change the cam profile making it 'laggier' 2) Much larger head gaskets which would reduce compression, but half the point of this was to increase compression. 3) New set of pistons ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$) 4) All of the above 5) Get ghetto The concept is you get sticky sandpaper and stick it back to a valve, slightly larger than the valve you/I'm using, like say from a LS3/rectangle port head. You now have a very super advanced flycutting tool to modify your pistons in your block. Then you install it in your head, and attach the other end of the head to a drill. Then you just replicate your valve smashing into a piston with your spinning drill.   This is the result. Repeat many times. It is strongly recommended you have some kind of fixed stop when doing this for extremely obvious reasons because if you press too hard then you're well into apocalyptic repercussion land. The minimum clearance on the intake valve is now 0.075" this is still in the "Too close to be really comfortable" and into "It should be fine" land. Supposedly in the real world the clearances will be slightly bigger. Guess this is what happens when people push envelopes for N/A engines instead of adding boost! Time to move onto the new, upgraded, higher ratio roller rockers from Yellaterra, all tapped and threaded with a stronger bolt for better stability. Very nice. Lets see how they fit. For f**ks sake. Time to bring the grinder out for these aftermarket, machined and CNC'd heads. Looks like the new, beefier rocker from YellaTerra has gone from Bolt on part to "Bolt on part". Well, lets see how this bolt on crank scraper and windage tray goes then, shall we? There actually is more clearance than they specify for this thing, but seeing it all move as you check it is terrifying when you see it all so very very very very nearly hit things. But after all, this is what the item is designed to do after all and actually did bolt on perfectly and have enough clearance to everything and some very clear and direct instructions. So +1 to Improved Racing I suppose. As above with the windage tray on. Photo of breaker bar wonkiness for added lols. Next up: Oil pump/front cover/water pump/sump and then it's time to actually install the heads, pushrods, head bolts, valve cover gaskets and such is all there and ready to go. (except the oil pump bolts which were previously longer for more clearance with the previously perfectly installed double row timing chain). There's definitely a sense that someone other than us has been here before and done everything perfectly, or at least considered it and came up with working solutions. Perhaps the previous cam was 6deg advanced to avoid PTV issues with the milled stock heads? In any case when I attempt to sell this stuff the buyers are going to be very directly informed.
    • my catch can is pretty easy to empty but it overflows due to the blowby/crank case pressure etc. max I have drained is ~600ml even with a ~2.3L capacity. So it is not just about having to drain it out its the mess it makes down the firewall and under the car and rear passenger tyre from the overflow oil being blasted by screamer + air in general. Ending up on the ground cleaning the oil up and having oil on your arms when everyone else can chill and watch the other sessions gets old fast
    • Yeah - the secret learned a long time ago is that the RB likes to belch oil out the covers, and/or starve the pump because it drowns the head in oil, because the upflow of crankcase gases from piston blowby comes up through the oil drain holes in the block and prevents the oil from flowing back down. The external vents from sump are about creating an alternative path/much more XS area for gas flow to decrease the gas velocity up through the oil drains and allow the oil to get back down. So, it's not about pressure at all. It is about flows - gas up and oil down - or when it's not working, gas up and oil not going where it is supposed to after it arrives at the top, except out through the cam cover vents. And regardless of whether the catch can is vented to air or vented to the turbo inlet, it must still be vented because a sealed system would blow out the crank seals, or something equally bad.
