oh what a nissan feeling! Posted December 11, 2014 Author Report Posted December 11, 2014 Cheers mate. The dump pipe and turbo manifold are ceramic coated, and i have now made a heat shield for the turbo housing. Heat wrap on manifolds causes premature stress to the metal. There are no gains to be had from a turbo beanie other than containing engine bay heat. Quote

Going to do powerplay in feb, then a month or two off the road to sort out the rear end. Edited January 7, 2015 by oh what a nissan feeling! Quote
Doogs Posted January 7, 2015 Report Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) Love the Longchamps mate, look the goods! Oil cooler and heat shield are neat too. :y: Edited January 7, 2015 by Doogs Quote
B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 7, 2015 Report Posted January 7, 2015 If Irokin decides to do COTY it'll be a toss up between this and Supra2's rally beast. Dunno if we could scrape together enough entries for it though. Quote
LittleRedSpirit Posted January 8, 2015 Report Posted January 8, 2015 Ill get the ae86 on the road this year. Then Ill be out and about again. A well timed project is a nice way to let your drivers licence recover... Quote

BUZ440 Posted January 9, 2015 Report Posted January 9, 2015 Take me for a drive matt and ill determine if RCOTY haha, i miss the power surge Quote
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted February 12, 2015 Author Report Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) Been slow to update this lately. I early entered the powerplay that was on last saturday. So finally did some work on the beast this after doing nothing but drive it a heap since last powercruise. removed both fuel filters to clean them, the aeromotive 40 micron was fine but the speedflow 10 micron after the pumps was pretty blocked. Will check that one more often i think. AT powecruise i had a wheelbearing give me trouble on the sunday, we put a new bearing in but the hub was not great. So i pulled both front hubs off, replaced one and repacked both of them on monday. Now time for some boost! Picked up a mate, my laptop, and my wideband and slowly put the boost back in, got around low to mid 20's in the psi but the laptop went flat so not right on 25 like we wanted, will do the rest on the track i guess. I did the interior vacuum, wash and wax, i pulled off the wheels and gave them a fresh buff with the cloth wheel. Looks overrated again. Powerplay was a good day, the rain held off, there was heaps of track time and the car performed flawlessly. Lots of races with everything i could find, it takes a fast car to beat the little rolla now. Lined up the crazy r34 that won the off street drags, safe to say it owned me. Most races out there are wins, so the memorable ones are the losses. Good times. Edited February 12, 2015 by oh what a nissan feeling! Quote
