ok so on the hunt for someone to rebuild my engine...

engine was originally built by midnight mods, all other work done by RE Autoworks (back in 2005-6). My run-ins with RE the last year havent been too fruitful, but I found out on the weekend he has now merged with RTR in Dandenong, who are reputable and seem like nice guys. and Ray knows the engine pretty well, so could be beneficial

So far on my list is:

DrDrift

Forced Motorworx

RTR

any other suggestions?

What about Tony's engine rebuilder?

Michael? He's pretty good, him and his dad have a shop! Should see the one in his garage!

Yeah alot of workshops outsource alot for the engine building processes to specialised workshops. As you need quite specific and expensive equipment.

Michael is an engine rebuilder by trade. So only thing going in that workshop is engine rebuilds non stop!

Workshop is called Headspec in Mulgrave, If you want we can discuss your options over cofee or something one night and i'll ask Michael to come along if his free.

yeah Me and a buddy lifted a (used) 302 off the back of a ute to the ground..worst bit was finding it was a used 302 so we had to get it back on to take back to the shop

FYP

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise    
    • My Fuga Hybrid is JDM, 2014 model but very similar to the V37 from the looks of things..same platform just physically larger and very comfortab;e
