3.4l RB is the most I am aware of...

also a lot of the Ford guys running sub 11 Barra's are actually de-stroking to 3.6 / 3.7 odd due to vibration issues at high RPM

Sweet jesus f**k.

Cracked fuel tank again.

again.

Like the 4th time now.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

Lol

[Birds]

Don't believe your shit anymore Greg

[emts]

how the hell do you crack a fuel tank?

Unrelated:

Today switched from 50,000km old KU31 235s on the front and nearly bald R1R 265s on the rear to AD08 255s and AD08R 265s respectively.

Wow what a transformation. Those tyres are unbelievably good value for the $220 each they cost me. So much corner grip it's ridiculous; just turns in so well with the 255s up front. And finally a set of road tyres that can hold my 2nd gear all the way through - time to break out the G-tech again Leigh

Mind you, those KU31 are an incredibly hard wearing tyre. Still 40% tread left on these. Awesome value for a daily driver not pushing too much power.

[Birds]

Also it's friggen handy living literally across the road from a tyre workshop. Cash tyre changes and alignments ftw - dude was trying to convince me to sign up to a drift event coming up lol

[emts]

so your finally working out that those toyos were NOT great preformance tyres...


what next realise that D1R's are not great light weight rims.....

that said ordering some RS3s next wek ust to not be on the Yoko band wagon .. or mroe to the point as they don;t do discounts on 17's......

Odie has a fuel tank for sale.

[Kinkstaah]

how the hell do you crack a fuel tank?

I honestly want to know, because I've split four tanks now.

Four!

From two different cars.

By now, I absolutely know the plumbing of the charcoal canister back to front.

You can't even find this shit on google. Seriously, look for "R34 cracked fuel tank" and behold the lack of .. anythings.

It's quite shit. Surely I have to be doing something wrong like pumping 30PSI into my fuel tank, but having checked the lines there's nothing there.

Looks like the crack is right up top though, so it only leaks when I'm at 100% fuel. It stops leaking and the gauge is still pinned to the top, so, gonna be filling up 75% until I buy a new tank from Nissan.

I've since disconnected the charcoal canister.

But seriously, ffs.

Birds my pain is real.

[Odium]

Yeah, have a good condition R33 GTST fuel tank in the garage... take it away... just needs a wash since its a bit dusty

[Kinkstaah]

R34 is different, because of course it's different

Unless they aren't.

As if people would know, because who has chronic fuel tank replacement issues?

[Odium]

I'd assume your chassis is twisted due to all of the massive torques... hopefully its so twisted that a 33 tank will fit

I'm just trying to get rid of it out of the garage, so take it and see, then it's your problem and not mine.

[Kinkstaah]

Looking at the pics here http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/444306-r33-gtr-and-r33-gtst-fuel-tanks-the-same/

Looks to be very similar, though I can't remember which side some of the hoses run to. I swear they may be different but there's no way to know until the thing is out of the car. Which really needs a hoist.

If only there was a guy with a hoist who does things on the cheap...............
