Brakes are on, Rims are on. Looks angry as f**k with the 123S's, Brake lines are on the way, Bit of a dabble in the engine bay here and there, Tidy up bits and pieces and we should be ready to fire up! Stay tuned

Not just yet, I'm trying to get most of the useless crap done at the end, Mainly I want it started and moving under its own power rather then being pushed around. Will post pics when they do go on eventually

Was supposed to be ready in May, So not sure what's going on.Havn't had the time to go in and find out. lately due to work, As far as im aware it still only needs fuel pump, fuel reg, and fluids to start..

Went in Saturday, Another 3 weeks is when work recommences on my project. So I imagine it'll only take a week to finish it all up to tuning stage, theres f**k all to be done really. So getting excited

I can't believe you're still waiting ...

I pulled out before Racewars here in Perth back in April. So he had to take on other projects in the meantime to keep work flowing through unhindered, No ones fault but my own really. Still extremely busy so it's getting around 8-10 hours on it a week from here. Better then nothing but it's getting very close.

hey mate nice build do you know if you can use a na neo cam agle sensor on the gtr 32 head.

it would be nice if you could get a good picture of the aac hoses they have used its all a bit confusing to many pipes ha.

Couple update photos, Fair bit has been done, Mainly Radiator, Killswitch/Isolator in bay, Fuel Reg, Fan shrouding, all bits and pieces and finishing touches up , Engine bay is just about complete, So very close. Couple porn shots to keep people excited. Forgot to get a picture after we popped the new Nissan GTR Ornament plate I bought on the engine covers, It absolutely just sets the finishing touch off in the bay.

Well we had her started up for the first time, And got oil pressure etc, Everything went perfect started up first shot. Once I figure out how to get my videos up on the forums I'll chuck a short clip I got

Here have some more pics. Street tested today, Car still kicks over first shot on e85 everytime, Even after not being started for a week which is awesome. Hoping to get some run in k's on it sometime early in the new year when I'm not yolofifo'd , still working on getting the startup vid on here, But cant seem to embed a facebook video tried everything. :|

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
