Hey Guys ,

blitz fatt turbo timer

car had genuine 86, 956km on it when i got it, since motor build it now has 87770km . it is still on a run in tune and is still running in. boost is down at 13 psi.

So... What It needs to be completely fininshed, boot trim carpet (piece that covers battery area) fluids changed (at around 1000km) and a dynotune. and repair crack in front lower lip.

i am very sure the car has alot of potential. i am unsure potential buyer would be extremely happy with it as i have put 110% into it. i am not a back yard mechanic i am an auto electrician & mechanic by trades. have a pile of reciepts for much of the parts put into the car. i have simply run out of time, (work related, family etc) and never get the time to drive & enjoy the car .

Soo what im looking at chasing for it (alot less than it owes me , but thats cars eh,) is $25,000 ono. with rwc and remainder of reggo. i am not in no rush to sell it, so please no low ballers. please only genuine buyers contact me as no one like wasting time. am looking at the likes of getting a bigger family car (Nissan Patrol) so unless you have something along the lines of that no offers to swap please. no test pilots , there will be no test driving unless you hand over i.d and deposit.post-84496-0-01494300-1380190289_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-07934900-1380188478_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-38252000-1380188483_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-25818700-1380188487_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-91720600-1380188495_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-37606100-1380188499_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-91690000-1380188502_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-54739000-1380190173_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-35856700-1380190209_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-91148600-1380190246_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-53758400-1380190277_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-66025300-1380190280_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-45450100-1380190282_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-66721700-1380190284_thumb.jpgpost-84496-0-86401700-1380190286_thumb.jpg think i have covered most of it. any questions just ask, or pm me. thanks

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
