Ohh and btw , I got the standing ovation tonight in the T*** place circle work . I am sure you know where I mean , just up from the place you frequent.

Got it to do a rotate on the spot 4wd donut. Needed the wet rd to keep it going.

Now I know what the WRC cars at forrest place must have felt like in the old days of victory donuts. Hehehe

Nope , with the changes in the rules ie. no one is complying R32's and the uncertainty of the 15 yr old , I will wait for a while and see what happens.

Ken, I think my ring-lands have gone, will do a compression test on the weekend, see if it shows anything. But I drive sensibly too, don't know how it could happen:D

Yea , it seems to blow smoke on over run which means the vacuum could be drawing the oil up past the rings on overrun.

Could also mean that only your oil control rings are gone and the compression could be fine.

Ken, let me know when your doing it and I'll pop down, I'm just around the corner:D

Wondered why Danny has so many fried tyres:p

they normally stay out of that street but hear them rip up and down past there shop.

It is usually only a spur of the moment thing.

Any , I'm off cos the missus has just slammmmmmed the door which is a hint.:(

Oil control rings? Are they the second lot of rings on the piston? Is it bad? Should I put the forgies in sooner or later?

Nope , there usually the third set and are two thin rings with a wavy scraper thing. Not a real problem cos oil is cheap but it is telling you that the engine is getting tired. More boost and bigger terbs will kill it quick which is why I might as well get it done on mine now.

That and r and r the engine is like an 8 hr job.

Also finally found out mine has a nismo sprung twin plate and is in good nick so that's a bonus.

Wait till she sees you at Albany.lol

    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their proven reliability, predictable performance, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
