Ok cheers, man. I'm going out there to go through all the vacuum lines this arvo. He said that he had sourced a vac diagram that was in a different format to the one you use and had made adjustments based on that. Are you aware of another vac diagram floating around that may be incorrect and if...

Would anyone have any other ideas on what could be causing this?? We've played around with it, tried an adjustable valve restrictor so we can play around etc and still having only grief with it... tried swapping over bypass cv and a bunch of solenoids have been replaced, it's still over boosting...

Yeah its funny the way words like cusco, hks, trust, greddy, apexi suddenly make basic items very expensive. eg. $1200 for a GT2871R or $1800 for a hks gt-rs...exactly the same thing but obviously the hks has an extra $600 worth of special attention to engineering involved. :suspect:

I'm guessing it'd be something like that. On another note however, did you know cusco make acrylic windows for the K10?? http://www.cusco.co.jp/products/pdf/2008webcatalog376.pdf I'd be interested to know more but I've never seen em until I saw this listing...

According to the cusco catalogue this is for NA engines only... http://www.cusco.co.jp/en/pdf/Strut%20bar_nissan.pdf Not wanting to pee on your picnic but didnt want you to part with your cash for nothin.

Ooh they came up awesome man! Kudos to your mate, should look great when you get em back on!

Agreed, in theory you could have detonation occuring between your surfaces...not cool imo. Not to mention you would have reduced compression. Sign above my mechanic's front counter: The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of a low price.

Yeah, 66mm on the ST, 68mm on an ma10

2mm on the bore.

Damn you did a good job of it! Glad you're ok though.

Wow some very nice cars there!! Yours looks good with the bonnet off haha :D Not too sure about the choice of colour on that gti-r though...it certainly stands out which is good for a show car but even so...its a pretty ugly shade of green... Did you get any mentions/awards or such on...

Ahh ok cool. I thought it should be that easy, clearly its rusted in pretty badly then. thanks.

As I'm dismantling I'm noticing more and more just how completely screwed the the cooling is on this engine (I'm seeing signs that it was cooked also) so I have a few quick questions I wanted to ask. Firstly, can you still get thermostats through nissan and are these the same as the ma10 and...

Do you know when it was fired up last? Something may have siezed up?? Plugs are ok?

Did anyone on here happen to get this?? I didnt get any more info from the seller (other than that it was a March R ecu that he was willing to sell for an additional cost without trade in) but I saw the bidding went nuts right near the end and it ended up going for almost $600. I was going to...

Fantastic, Baz! You should be really proud of everything you've put into the car, its worthy of a whole magazine to itself (Y)

YES!!! I also hate standard base model cars with nismo, mugen, ralliart, spoon, trd etc. badging all over em... There is a standard pulsar near my house that has nothing done to it and sounds terrible and needs a really good service but he has a MASSIVE nismo sunstrip front and back...it...

One more thing, what size should the restrictor at point 5 be? That appears to be the issue...

Awesome thanks man. That is pretty close to what I was thinking but don't trust my own judgement on such things :) I've passed on what you said and dropped in my spare bpcv so I'm hoping he can get it sorted out soon...he is pretty cluey so should have it all figured out soon enough. Thanks...

Thanks Baz. Sleep well!
