Anyone in Sydney that wants to do there’s to save buying the socket to do it, I’m happy to lend you mine if you leave a $50 deposit which will be returned to you when you return the socket

Keeps the pressure in the pump, easiest way to know if yours is stuffed is while car car is sitting there idling you’ll hear the attessa pump cycle every couple of minutes.

Pretty certain my attessa pump primes every 10 seconds lol

I'm keen to know how did you find the change in ratio's especially for driving on the street in comparison to the 5spd box?

Does it make more sense re ratio's of 6spd v 5spd? and  the 4.11 rear diff.

Doing the same conversion and getting a tad excited, cant wait so trying to glean what you think.

I actually think it’s easier to drive especially taking off, I find 4th at 60km sits just under 3,000rpm which gives it a nice amount of torque when you come to a hill, get to about 70-80 and I put it in 5th and it just cruises along nicely 

It’s great with the 4.11s, honestly if you have any reserves about it, don’t worry about them cause you won’t regret it

Thanks - watched it several times listening to the changes. I absolutely love the sound the RB's make under load and the BOV's.

I'm really chuffed to hear you say it's easier/nicer. I cant wait.

In that race I was against an r32 Gtr with a big single and more power then me and he finished with his front bar lined up with my rear cause mine gets out of the hole so much better

Nothing “broke” but the ats twin plate while being a fantastic clutch was not strong enough for the mighty twins and slips when I run anything above my lowest boost setting 

The clutch to replace it will be an os r3c that I picked up a couple of months ago from a member on here with very little use on it 

after ripping the box out I sat the 2 clutches side by side and I realized this wasn’t going to work without some parts sourcing

After installing an r3c recently in my Gtr 

make sure u use the correct length bearing carrier as the clutch is “thinner” and needs a long bearing carrier 

mine was around 27mm long if I recall where as most other clutches require a 14ish mm carrier

I did a heap of measuring and had worked out that was what was required and late today I picked this puppy up and it will fix my issue

I will be able to fit it all when I get a free second and take it for a drive again 

Honestly I have no idea, Kyle from hi octane had it sitting around because their supplier had sent them the wrong part for another customer and he sold it to me.

i will check it for a part number tomorrow

    • Nissan/Pitwork is fine stuff. HKS is just marketing wank. I personally wouldn't do the idler if it is already new. If it looks and feels fine, it is fine. But as D says - it's cheap to add it to the job. The water pump ditto. Even more so. If it show no signs of problems, then it is nearly new - leave it.
    • 1. I can't see a location on your profile but you do mention GBP so I'll assume you are in UK. In Australia, CBC make a timing belt kit with the gears and idler and tension bearing and that is what I use without any problems. I'm sure OEM or HKS are also fine but I wouldn't pay extra for HKS over anything else. 2. Yes, I would always change the idler and tensioner and the stud and bolt that hold them in. Assuming they were all done last time it is highly unlikely you would have a problem, but they are very cheap to add to the job considering the time it will take anyway.  3. No, you don't need to lock them as such (I think that is more for engines without timing marks), but you should make sure they move as little as possible once the belt is off as you can hit pistons on valves if they move too far. As always, make sure you line it all up to top dead centre with the timing marks aligned before you take the old belt off.

    • Hey everyone,   I’m looking for some advice on replacing the timing belt on my RB25DET Neo-powered 1998 Skyline. The engine was fully built about five years ago, including a fresh timing belt, water pump, and other essentials. However, since then, the car has only covered around 2,000–3,000 miles. It’s currently making around 650hp.   Even though the mileage is low, I know timing belts have a time-based lifespan too, and most recommendations suggest changing them every five to six years or 50,000 miles. Since I’m at that time mark, I’d rather not take any risks and plan to swap it out soon.   A few things I’d like to hear opinions on: 1. What’s the best belt for this setup? Should I go with an OEM Nissan belt, or is the HKS fine-tune a better choice given the power level? 2. Would you bother replacing the idler pulley and tensioner at the same time, or only if they show wear? 3. When swapping the belt, is it necessary to lock the cam and crank gears in place, or is lining up the timing marks enough? I’ve seen different approaches, and I want to make sure I do it right.   The water pump was changed with the rebuild and isn’t run off the timing belt, so I don’t see a need to replace it again. I just want to make sure I approach this the right way.   Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!
