Ok, I am going to run a .82 A.R turbine. I have my doubts about it but on the positive side it should help with flow and creep.
Oh well , I`ll see when she is up and running..

No ways a 44/45 will be to small.

It is pretty much official. She is off the road for the long awaited upgrade.

I need the current engine out to do some titivating and lekka maak while getting the last bits and bobs sorted on the new engine.

The new engine has a Tomei extended sump with baffles and pickup, all lekka stuff but I have to chop the 4wd diff and stuff off it.
Don`t feel to good doing that as I still want to build S.A.`s first S14 Gt-R..but that is what I have to do right now.

Will update as I go along...

Oops, did I plant a seed there Barry? :lol:

You track that car of yours evey minute you get, and we know RB motors has this little problem with oil pumps ect. I would go dry sump in a heart beat.

And its not complicated at all, some people see it as this dark art, when it is not. I sent you a mail on the dry sump pump I sell with the correct pulley. If you need contacts for the AN fittings, pipes and the crank pulley just let me know. Will assist where I can.
