Best mod i did was removing boot mounted twin 044 surge tank setup and replacing it with twin nismo intanks. No noise no smell operated like a factory fuel system.

Not worried about the noise , the Walbro is pretty quiet and they are intank ,If there is smell problem , there will be a surge tank for sale :)

Steve , any petrol smell with the Nuke ???

Thanks Steve, I could not find very much info on the Nuke Surge Tank but they looked pretty well made and using the Walbros was a plus.

Did you mount yours in the boot ?

Yep in the boot. No fumes as yet

Aeroflow 250 series black braided Teflon hose or similar is the product to use.

Right side puts the surge tank in front of the Attessa reservoir. If you don't mind having to remove the surge tank to check the reservoir, then great.

I think I will go the drivers side, depending on the size I might not have to move it to check the reservoir. I think when it arrives it will give us a better idea.

The other side has the jack and tools and allows a bit more luggage space. Sort of wish I put it under the car and if I have any problems that is what I will do.

Mine is in a r30 and its on the right side with Teflon braid. I used bulkhead fillings through the floor

not that it will make any difference but what did the Teflon braided cost for the job, just wondering the price difference between that and a cheaper alternative ?

Still going in tomorrow Pete?

Yes Mark , leave here around 4am , get a train and a bus back home and it just about drops me at my door, only $35 as to $400 getting to and from the Sydney shop , even though I flew to Sydney 1 Hr, 40min to the airport , they want you there an hour before the flight, 2 trains and get picked up at the station , it is about the same time :)

After he drops me off I think he will do a dyno run to have a look and be able to have a back to back comparison after the work is done.

Jez did mine and I can't smell shit. it's in the boot taking up space

Can still fit a few slabs of beer in so all good

He is going to use quality lines and I am sure it will be no problem

haha, couple of slabs would get you through Saturday :)

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
