Fatz Gtr Reliability Testing

[fatz]

hihihihihihi box!

definately lost a gear as a fair bit of it came out with the smurph blood

[niZmO_Man]

Should've bought a Nismo twin plate clutch

[fatz]

1k extra that two stock gearbags

[fatz]

Oh look something is missing

Where you at me input

Oh there you are

And a big f**k you to the top starter motor bolt.

[Duncan]

I guess Neil wins the bet then.

[Pezhead]

Ah, but now you have the best clutch alignment tool on the planet

[fatz]

Yea high price for a clutch alignment tool

[Victory]

Hey Fatz - you should hire out that first class clutch alignment tool to club members to recoup some of your losses with the gearbox.

[fatz]

Yea going price is a beer a day

[fatz]

new box is in

one man 4 jack stands

two trolly jack

f**k me i almost burnt the kunt of a thing down about 9 times

f**k you gtr box

next time ill just pay jez to do it...f**k!

[Piggaz]

Mega effort to get that prick back in by yourself. The transfer case ruins your life!

Bets on how long this one lasts?? 3 track days!

[timmy_89]

Wow, screw doing it by yourself lol.

I reckon 2-3 track days ;P

[Aggroman]

did you check out your engine mounts?
thats a fair chunk of twist to just pop the input shaft, maybe even the bearing went in the box and put too much heat through the shaft.... hehe shaft

[fatz]

No but I will check the as I have a few more things to fix

Wouldnt the engine and box (lol box) move as one?

[fatz]

i have nizmo engine mounts that are 3k old

just remebered

will still check as weh i was pulling the box out they had some epic twist

[fatz]

so have been doing some investigation into my catch can setup following eastern creek happy fun times

on long left hander’s i noticed that oil pressure would drop to 30psi under high load

i can confirm this with the Haltech data logger, plus warning lights and i was going so slow i have time to check guages mid corner at 180km/h

This has only cropped up since going to the hancock rubber ( never had a issue on the r888 which are slower)

so i checked my oil levels as i do and she was at the hump in the dipstick so 10 litres of oil in the slightly larger stock sump

so slapped another 2L in which brought the oil level up to crank level and about 1 inch above the kink in the dipstick (about 3 inches higher than the full line)

next session this resulted in perfect oil pressure on left handers however the downside was the catch can pumping about 1 litre of oil out the drain and under the car

i already had a cunning plan to fix this and was expected considering the thrashing teh car cops/ engine wear

i will be going to version 3 catch can which involves putting it the one way valve to the catch can and activating the external pump that i had installed (have not been using it till required)

i am hoping this will give me a extra year or two of thrashing ( or about 10 gearboxes time) before i have to start backing off the revs to control blowby

will also extend the -20 drain hose to back behind the rear cradle to that the poor bastard behind me cops it and not the under part of my car

[Anfanee]

Why not make a full closed system?

[fatz]

thats only for dry sumps

fully closed = blown seal
