Jez tried to start the tune on Friday and couldn't get the cam to move, lots of diagnostic work later we found the cam gear was jammed, a lot of problem solving we managed to work out what was causing it and got it working today (Tuesday). 

The tune has started and it's looking promising

The e85 tune was done today and the result is exactly as I had hoped, I won't give the final number till the car and dyno sheet are in my hand but I will say at 4500rpm it's already making 250kw ?

Picked the car up today and all I can say is HOLY f**k. It's not even the number it makes it's how quickly it makes it. It has better response then my old -7 set up and just walks away. The only time the -7 set up matches it is when your foot is on the clutch stopped at idleIMG_2794.thumb.jpeg.588b67a26fde7d882ddf55e089c1f03d.jpeg

now for the future of this car, I'm done with chasing power!!! I'm over the moon with how it drives. So now I'll be just doing some general maintenance and improving things that may break. I will still be updating this thread as I go

when I had the car wheel aligned last time I was told those castor rods I had put in the car were rubbish and when I ordered the alternator I also ordered some Cusco carstor rods fitted them and had the car aligned again.

now I could have sworn I took a photo of them before and after installing them but I can't find the photos

dropped it into the box checked the fluid level and when I get around to it I’ll put the car back down give it a wash and take it for a drive

    • Welcome Gabriel, and thanks for saving one of the less famous cousins!
    • Wanting to avoid this if possible but kinda looking like I may not have a choice 😭
    • Ok awesome thank you. Just wanted to have them in case I can find some and need to compare part numbers!
    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.
