[Marko R1]

This farken'ing is contagious.

What have I done hehe.

Paul, get on the cans maaaate!

[N1GTR]

I asked Yavuz about this and he waffle quite technical.

Pffffffffft it's easy to understand if you don't own a 2.8!

[Piggaz]

Pffffffffft it's easy to understand if you don't own a 2.8!

Never ends with you! Lol

Paul, do you know your cam centerlines on your old head? If so, can you share?

[femno]

Nice one mate, glad to see its coming along well. Hurry up and join the club where we actually get to drive our GTRs...!

If youre not working late every, single, night, youre not working hard enough.

[Piggaz]

Paul, do you know your cam centerlines on your old head? If so, can you share?

Not sure, but we are getting all the cams measured up and plotted on paper. I'll post that sheet when I get it.

I need the engine back so I can do anything

[black bnr32]

Any idea how your cam gears were adjusted?

Any idea how your cam gears were adjusted?

Intake was quite hard advanced, something like + 10 or so degrees, exhaust was -1 I think.

That was setup for GT-RS's. When I went to -5's we didn't touch them.

[BLACK BEAST]

just read through and enjoying this build .

lots of good info .

look forward to the results with -5's and 264/10.5 combo

[R32 TT]

Piggaz, click me

...this is all that appears to be going on mate!

[Marko R1]

Piggaz, click me

...this is all that appears to be going on mate!

too many crickets!

[Piggaz]

Just waiting in the engine now.

Can't do much without it. Won't take long once I get that sucker back!

[Blitz]

What sort of timeframe do you think you are looking at? I have only taken mine for one outing since getting it back so we may need to take both of them out soon to rack up some km's

Weather's been rubbish anyway and given how the car behaves in the dry id rather not risk death by trying it out in the wet! - Yours will no doubt be even more nasty

[Marko R1]

Nick - I had no idea you were building another rob...do you have a build thread?

Did you go to Dart again? Specs?

[Blitz]

No build thread Marko and I don't want to clutter Paul's but yes ive just finished a build and Dart was involved, along with a few other workshops.

I may put up some details and a thread if time is ever on my side.

Nick

[Piggaz]

Nick, I don't know man. I said 6 weeks... 6 weeks ago. Can't be too much longer. I've lost a little motivation at the moment but I'm sure that will change when the engine is 2 meters in the air!

[R32 TT]

......but I'm sure that will change when the engine is 2 meters in the air!

wow - that will be an impressive launch... !
