they said they're going to need another day with the car, I asked then if they could give me a progress report on the car, and they told me They've Replaced the Tint on the Rear window, and replace the springs in the front (it was too low at the front). I'm not an expert and I have no idea how busy these guys are, but they've had the car since Midday Tuesday and all they've done is put a layer of tint on the rear window and swap the springs. They told me they are currently working on the tachometer now, but the car won't be ready until end of day tomorrow.

Doesn't look like I'm bringing it to the cruise.

Hi do you guys know what process is to register a interstate vehicle in WA, have any of you done it ? Is it hard ?

I did search registering interstate but only found eastern state stuff.

Think you need to go pits , and get a road worthy Certificate , haven't done it my self tho [emoji28]

Sad. They get pretty busy most days with engine rebuilds, mods and usual services. But pretty annoying they promised two days but took longer.

Being in similar environment, everyone wants to know when it will be ready

Go short and your a flaming mongrel if it blows out.

Go long and you miss out

Best guess is still only a guess

Right, Under promise, Over Deliver, retail 101.

I'm not upset that it's taking a bit longer, I'm disappointed because we discussed a time-frame, and they couldn't keep it, and they didn't ring me to tell me it was going to take longer.

Also, it took more than 24hours, just to apply tint to 1 window, I know they out-source the tint... but it doesn't take 24 hours to tint 1 window.

also, they charge by the hour, so the longer they take, the more I pay.

Ring around on places that tint c what the going rate is this way you know you wont be over charged, also you are paying for something to be done/service if you dont get said service then negotiate

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
