I depends how you split your moneys, i see it as tyres are a consumable like fuel and rego though if your going through tyres at the same rate as fuel you've got an issue

Engines aren't much different to tyres, especially if you own a RB26 :yes:

hahahahah. i like this. alot.

the wife wouldnt tho.

having created butthurt over at micra hq, ill predominantly update here. seem the old guard dont like it when two blokes get together in a shed and build something good (but not necessarily better) for 10% of what they have spent.

now i know it was a roller dyno, so the 169kw wont be spot on, but f**k. chill the f**k out.

oh well. i didnt set out to build australias most powerful micra, (even if i have, ITS A MICRA WHO GIVES A f**k)

Sorry, I seem to have accidentally stoked the fire. :P

my mini gtr just scored some mini gtr wheels.

alright gents. how have we been?!

after a spirited drive on saturday (finally getting used to this thing!) i woke up sunday morning to see a small patch of oil under the car.

got her up on ramps, and found out that the rear main seal, installed about a month ago, appears to be leaking.

now seeing as i currently have 3 other cars at my disposal, i decided to fix her over time, so i started with disconnecting everything.

im in two minds as to weather i should do the head gasket/turbo/timing chain/arp studs now...... all comes down to money i guess, if i get my bonus and tax cash before shes back on the road ill get it done.

this will be the last update on the car affectionately nicknamed by my wife as "the green turd" thanks for that mcm.

for a while anyway. she will be back by the end of september.....

    • Does your rb gearbox have the common input shaft bearing sound? (One one where it goes away when u push the clutch in or get to higher revs) I heard if you put the wrong oil it can get this sound.
    • There's more than one way to skin that cat, and most of the sump Maatouks have done will be GTR sumps. They are HUGE in GTR drag racing here.
    • Yeah...I always start at the shift solenoids, because there's only a few reasons these will spook into limp mode, and bad shift solenoids is one ~ the other can be the shift control module (if you have steering wheel shift buttons)...it's easier to eliminate the solenoids first.
    • Might piggy back off this thread since there's been a good discussion about PWM.   I purchased a Walbro 460 F90000267 and have been looking into PWM to understand it. It was purchased more of a future proof as my original OEM fuel pump died (r33 below 200kw) and figured I'd just upgrade it to this. That's when it hit me that a pump this big can cause more dramas with such high amperage draw and heating of the fuel pump being on 100% all the time in such a mild setup.   I have a Nexus R3 and slowly collecting power mods but I was looking into the PWM feature on the NSP software:   Then looking at the graph from the fuel pump:     Am I safe to assume reducing duty cycle to 50% for example would make the pump run like a 230/lph ? Where does the PWM come in all of this ?   I've gone down the rabbit hole of PWM fuel pumps and it seems there are many differing opinions on how to go about it 馃槄  
    • Thank you, this will keep me busy for a bit.  I will update progression.
