Any parts in particular you need or the whole thing? Might be able to get a bloke to go over it.

I'd prefer the whole thing if possible, that way I can double check everything and start ruling out causes etc

What was the damage?

$300, with a 2 month old GT Pumps actuator :D. Done about 70K kms.

Only thing is a snapped bolt which the thread doctor quoted $40 to drill out.

Not bad imo.

Waiting to hear back about some injectors atm as well :P

still waiting on that injector guy? thats some slow responding.

good price, wouldn't want to pay much more than that

tell me about it, -___-. if it doesn't work out, going to probably go with some id1000's. but dat price tag.

yep! didn't want to spend more than 350, really. but now should hopefully flow 250+

much money, hipster boy

who is this hipster boy you speak of?

yeah same, must've been that odd occurance

I've heard they are planning to build one in Epping now too

Apparently, they're looking at building Costco somewhere on High St or around Epping.

And where Pipeworks is in Cambelfield, that's going to be Ikea opening early next year....

Stance? Probably not. Wouldn't mind being fairly aggressive, though. Wheels are still awhile away... not to mention coilovers as well.

Alvin, why not just go to the new Ringwood one?

Also not sure about those Kando turbos, could swear I've read some evooz thread(s) which do not recommend... Unless I'm thinking of something else.

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
    • i need a complete tail light for my R33 GTR if you have please let me know.
    • I need a great maintenance workshop around Idaho, if you know one please let me know..
