And,after my embarrasment of showing up last Tueday wearing a pink shirt and being the only one there being stared at by the packs of V8 supporters,I'll probably revert to the tried-and-true Nissan clothing wear range....

maybe we should organise one on this side of town.

the new mawson club has an awsome citrus cafe that makes awsome meals,

plus drinks are well priced, and parking is plentiful.

they have a trivial night also.. anyway food for thought!

some of us hve to travel ALONG way to get to the Jerra.

    • What's the difference? I would have said that between the front and rear axle lines, there's no noticeable diff between a GTR and an NA 2-door.
    • It will be salvageable. It really doesn't matter what is damaged. Opening up a 30+ year old motor for a rebuild immediately means a complete rebuild of the head anyway. Damaged valves just means an opportunity to put in some nice new ones. And in the modern day, why would you not throw at least a nice set of pistons at something. And if you're doing that, why not rods, and ARP fasteners, and so on.
    • R35 card MAFs are great, not a fan of the Z32
    • Long time no see, I haven't posted since 14 years ago... To cut to the chase, R32 GTR. dead stock. Split wastegate hose = stock turbos were overboosting = front turbo's exhaust wheel has shattered. Have done a compression test following this and the results are (dry, cold) - 120 / 60 / 75 / 110 / 150 / 150. Haven't bothered with a wet test or leakdown test. The results definitely support front turbo failure (on 1-3) however the low compression on #4 is concerning too. Can anyone share their experience of when their turbine wheel shattered and damaged their motor - and what work needed to be done afterwards? Pistons? Rings? Valves? Throwing in the bin or salvageable? Motor is 100% stock. Will be getting it looked at further soon - I don't have a borescope and head hasn't come off (yet).
