Low oil pressure is now fully understandable!!! Poor stock pistons were putting out over 450whp so they've had a hard life!!!

PS - same wheels as meeeeeeee

PPS - are you going to do some track days with the new engine? Might wanna do brakes too - Ksport 356mm 8pot brake kit is under $2k from UK with EBC Blue pads and they work a bloody treat!!! You know you wanna do it :)

Yeah, we are still not sure but it most likely will be the cause.

Yeah love the RPF1s :) I think yours was the reason why I bought some im not sure... I have to do some trolling lol.

If I do track days I will most likely go DBA4000s until I decide that my calipers need upgrading I want AP Racing mmmmmm AP Racing...

will be good to see the vcam

should make it quite fast

The V-Cam will be more a lets make it more responsive over fast. but in turn will be quick down the straight :)

I have asked but my goal is 500hp on pump which is achieve able :) given with the quicker response then = WINNING good street/track on occasion car :) then project number 2 will start.

Could you pm me what they charging for for VCT setup thinking of going Down this road for my new build

Your best bet would be to talk to Dan from Elite Racing Developments or ERD for short.

I know they have to drill a oil gallery in the head and then they change cam profiles etc....

Hyper6 Sean my tuner, he is running it in his 32 GTR atm with a T04z runs 1000rpm earlier on the dyno graph its pretty awesome I will try and see if I can get him to post it up or Dan might have a copy.

Well not much has happened, the block has been sent off to the machinist should arrive back early next week from what I have heard, I have received my heater hoses from Performance-Wise and I received my CAS Sensor gasket from Kudos Motorsports.

The engine covers are being painted up along with all the bits and pieces that can be painted of the engine.

I am getting very excited to see the results of the build I am aiming to push 500hp on pump with then going the VCT set up.

Once I get to that I will be then setting the car up with the right suspension settings, brakes etc.

Unfortunately my car will most likely be just as complete as I am going under the knife for hand surgery lol.

Edited by EAT26

no good on the hand mate.

how is everything looking?

I thought Sean was using a different turbo - not a Z?

Ohhh such is life, shit happens lol. I want to keep the bone they remove tho... I am hoping I can it put in with my series of events... Cracked piston, Destroyed Shoei Motorbike Helmet and Bone... lol. would be a good show case lol.

Yeah everything is looking good, got offered some Grex brakes yesterday I am tempted however I want more the engine to be set up right so focusing on that lol.

Nah I am pretty sure its a Z but it might be a differenct brand version of the Z tho.

haha you're a mad bastard.

Grex brakes wouldnt be too bad, I found a set yesterday while lurking :D

Ah, I cant remember exactly anymore - proboost is ringing a bell though

;)

I got offered a set yesterday for swaps of my stock brembo's with 1500 his way ;)

Yeah I think its the proboost version of the Z

go the AP 6 piston fronts, 350 rotors are what i run and they go well on the street and track, 380 if ya really feel the need is available too :P

keep stock rears, or if you wanna upgrade, the 34 brembo's, but generally with good rotors and pads the stock rears are fine.

I have added a few extra things to the build list.

Tomei Sump Baffle

ERD Catch Can Set up.

And I am looking at the Mines Cam baffles....

Oil control is starting to be a thing for me.... not so good for my pocket hahaha.

Engine covers, Plenum, Turbo intake pipe and Strut bar should be all painted and finished tonight.... Might be able to pick them up tomorrow touch wood.

    • Any G40/1000 or G40/1250 results out there?  
    • You still want a proper tune on the stock ECU though. Stock tune + stock ECU with GT-SS/-9s is probably playing with fire if you're running more than stock airflow/power.
    • I like their veal scallopini.
    • Definitely a hearty eater when we go out, I consider these meals my cheat day as I've been watching my calories in and calories out pretty hard since my little fun size stroke, I've gone from a fat boy of 89 Kg, I'm only 165cm tall/short, down to a almost semi lean 73 Kg over the last few years, I'm currently around 17% body fat which my doctor is very happy with, but, my goal is to slowly get down to and maintain 15%,so yeah, I want all of the protein, carbs, fats and sugars when I go out for a binge
    • There was a great one on Victoria Rd in Gladesville too back in the day. I can only assume GTSBoy is thinking of the mill up on the wollondilly, no restaurant there any more but they have restored the original steam engine on site and run it every few months, have an annual steampunk festival etc @The Bogan, you came to the wrong town for restaurants. we have a few reasonable asian and indian options but the Paragon is as good as it gets otherwise. That brewery is apparently just opened, been meaning to give it a go some time. The Highlands have plenty of fancy options but I suspect you are more a hearty eater than fancy eater
