I wouldn't say shell is shit. His saying fuel is crap probably meant it wanted to knock easy. Could be high intake temp from no intercooler.

I think 98 is pretty much same but occasionally you get a bad batch

Inter cooler makes decent improvement. Of fit Water/Meth kit. Standard turbo still? About 12-14psi?



Yeah he said good mid range improvement but it has not arrived yet, he maxed my stock turbo out at 11psi he said it's running out of puff, so I guess that's it for now
$10 for a pair. $18 for 2 pair. Hopefully I can find them as everything got boxed up in the move




I won't stress you with the stickies now , maybe when you settle down with the move then please let me know [emoji5]
Morning boys , is anyone knows about CVT transmission? And is Dualis any good for daily cheap run around ?



I'm sure it's fine as a runaround but I hate them, effectively there are no gears but it can be very efficient

Dave don't like them , he didn't like the sound when it's back off from the accelerator the revs don't drop , you know what I mean ?

It's weird but for some reason apparently it's clever transmission- ha clever to drink up all the fuels [emoji57]

yeah its just a couple of shafts that just match revs and speed using belts, its good for a runabout i guess

It's cheap for daily run , but yea I'm just paranoid with the rev sound -any other suggestion ? How about Nissan pulsar sss

Both my brother and I have had the old 1998 SSS they were cool running the SR20DE was good fun but he converted his to SR20DET GTiR Motor, good fun cars to drive as for the new ones i'm not too sure but probably ok as a daily.

They are nice transmissions, as long as they have been maintained

Cool next time I see them I'll let you know. My wife packed them so they could be anywhere ;)

    • I have multiple bottles in a shed that gets hot, and I'm in SEQ, so it's humid. Maybe we test their theory... Anyone have a system to accurately measure moisture content in oil?
    • Yeah, that and throwing away opened, part used, closed back up bottles has got to be bullshit. Brake fluid sits in not-very-well sealed master cylinder reservoirs for literal years and keeps working (albeit we know we should flush it every couple of years - it actually still works). Anything kept in a bottle in the shed with a tightly capped lid has got to be a million times better than what has been in the car for the same length of time.
    • Wait, they're claiming UNOPENED fluid has a shelf life of only 18 months?
    • The plan is to get it out of the shed. The reality may fall some way short. But hope is as cheap as despair as they say. Will go a wide band I think. The coils are ok so maybe I’ll miss the $1500 on the R35 coils etc. Im still on the fence about a trigger kit. The HKS one looks nice ($1k) - not sure how it works with the Link or if Link prefer something else. Oil pressure is fine so I’m not that concerned there. Fuel pressure I’ll have a think about. The IAT got changed for the Link anyway as the old RB26 ones were really slow reacting and pretty poor. The Power FC just worked. Wasn’t terribly refined but it just worked. Probably made a mistake replacing it really. E85 isn’t available locally - it is 100+ kms away which puts it in the too hard basket. Lastly I understand Tunecorp in Perth are pretty good so was probably going there.   As for turbos is there are new age -5 drop in replacement? Turbos have come a long way in 20 years, everyone is big single which is fair enough but I prefer the old school complication of twins. Wasn’t chasing more power (well, not much more) but more efficiency would be ok.
    • I thought I'd share this....the shell is non genuine but they found or built a lot of the genuine parts. Plus, it is by far the best colour scheme of those years, the winfield once was particularly shit https://www.v8sleuth.com.au/written-off-inaugural-godzilla-recreated/
