Hi and welcome to Nissan Nut House

[Neesmo31]

Thanks guys, appreciate it.

Its pretty nana spec on the outside, which i guess is good. Getting 33's for it hopefully by the end of this week so i will be happy with that.

Long story short, bought the car on saturday, turbo failed at sunday lunchtime... it had a GT2876R on it making 202hp ATW on around 8psi, so thats off the car now, and I have been waiting for MTQ to build me a new dump pipe to match the 35R and the new manifold.

So i have been using this time to service it, done the following items:
New engine oil and filter
New plugs and plug leads
New distributor cap and rotor button
New front and rear diff oil
New transfer case oil
Coolant flush and new coolant
New air filter
* all penrite oils only :) *

Done all those and just a nice tidy up of everything, replaced all vacuum hoses and neatend/zip tied all wiring and hoses. Also got some dielectric grease and cut loose on the connectors in the engine bay.

Basically will have the turbo either today or tommorow, then its going to be fun times.

Thanks again.

Hi Neesmo31, that photo is on another forum that will not work here unfortunately mate.

You will have to either upload the photo from your computer to here or host it on another website that does not require a log in to see images.

http://photobucket.com/ is a good free site that most people use to host pictures and show on forums.

Cheers mate.

[Neesmo31]

woops lol. sorry

[Neesmo31]

Here is the car. Also the new turbo, manifold and dump pipe.

[Neesmo31]

Thanks lads, will post pics as soon as i get it all in and running. Will be converting back to NA i think (dont ask why) but just will be :)

Will just be a TB42 with some cam and head work, raised compression, header and intake, big fuel system and the haltech will remain for tuneability.

Hey Neesmo,

Whats the Gee Oh with the 4x stubbies?

[Neesmo31]

Size comparison, plus no good car project is complete without cold beers. :)

[Neesmo31]

Long time no post.... basically turbo kit is off and is for sale should anyone want this....

But have bought a brand new TB42E engine and have reverted (or in the process of) back to NA over forced induction. Have my reasons, but reliabilty is a major one, fuel octane etc, and my driving priorities have changed. Had my fun, want to do heaps more fishing/camping/touring now rather than 'hardcore' 4x4 and risk busting the car up. So turbo is gone, but will be running the following mods/differences:

TB42E - still running the big fuel pump, haltech, injectors
3" intake pipe
custom stainless airbox into the millweld
headers, hiflo cat and lukey catback
running the trans coolers in the front now that the intercoooler is gone - so will have 2 x 255x280mm coolers with 11" spal fans front and center
will be running 4.3 ratios in the diffs
lots more little mods.

I havnt posted here in a while, and the car has changed alot since i posted last. since then its got lockers, superflex arms big spotties etc so will do a write up when its done.

But the new engine got the works when it was on the stand!
BRAND NEW fully reco'd long engine (rocker cover to sump)
new water pump
new hoses EVERYWHERE
new injectors (prodect code said they were Porsche 944 turbo injectors lol)
new engine mounts
new gaskets everywhere
new plugs/leads
new dizzy cap & rotor button
new filters everywhere
new thermostat
new battery
new air filters
new trans service kit
cleaned ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING - reassembled with new gaskets - reassembled with loctite everything - torqued everything.
new torque converter
Pretty much a whole new motor.... upon startup will have new coolant, new oil, new fuel, new trans oil.

So it should be reliable. :) Will post an update soon.

Nice, do they go well turbo? I have a stock 4.2 petrol and it goes pretty well as it is. Just sold a XR6 turbo and still day dreaming of blow off valves :)

[Neesmo31]

You could always buy the kit :)

Basically made 272hp atw on 14 psi. Through an auto. Was awesome :)

[Spar]

How much :)

[Neesmo31]

Heres how its coming along. Just doing the nitty gritty stuff now, cleaning up wiring, doing the trans lines and mounting the coolers, auto service, new bump stops etc....

Photo of the mock up of the trans coolers and running the lines etc. Nearly there.....
