Hey guys, thanks for another nice night.

to keep everyone up to date on the nights events, my wing has now been removed, with the help of a few others, and i love the look.

The local constabulary payed us a visit, flexed their muscles using scare tactics, licence checks and hanging around us for a while, but no defects were issued and they left us in peace.

and DO NOT travel behind Niks car, esp if he decides to give it a boot, you'll be left with blurry vision, a smoke coated front bar, and stinging eyes.

once he put the foot down all i saw was black smoke. ( where's the road!, where am I!) nik i think you should have your valve seals checked, normaly happens on engines that have done a few k's. only hapens at hish rev's, the oil sneaks past the valve stems and gets blown straight out the exauhst. sould coast to much to fix?

Nothing wrong with the engine, its just running a tad rich and has high flow cat, so not much restriction in the exhaust :(

Black smoke is fuel, its all good :( Oil burns/blows as blue/white smoke.

Oh noes~! my spark plugs~! :(

We've had a lambda meter up the exhaust and it runs an air/fuel ratio of between 11.5 to 11.7:1 acorss the whole rev range its on boost, which is about as high as you want to take it when youre running 15psi+ (although some shops take it to 12:1).

The reason it pisses out so much smoke is because its a *very* free flowing exhaust.

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
