Very nice! Can you share your virtual dyno settings?

Obviously you'll have to alter the weight and tire diameter to suit your setup, and possibly add 5th gear? I have NO way of doing a 5th gear run on this island so I never added it.

Well I think it's safe to say these were the original brake pads and I feel so ashamed that I never checked them out sooner.


I got Powerstop track day pads since Rockauto saw fit to stop carrying the Centric/Stoptech performance pads. I am pretty impressed, they came with new sliding pins, clips and grease, although I reused the stock pins after wire wheeling them because they were shorter than the replacement pins and I didn't want to see them poking out of the caliper.


That's one of the rear pads, I didn't get a pic of the front pads but they were at around 3mm left.

I swapped in stoptech rear braided lines and bled the system with Motul 600.
After bedding them in as per instruction I am pretty pleased so far, nice bite when cold and no noise. I noticed quite a bit of dust after the bedding procedure so will keep an eye on that but I can't expect them to not be at least a little dusty given their intended use.

Well I have a few updates in regards to the built motor and old turbos.

Engine wise I have ordered a single eagle rod, main bearings, thrust bearings, 2 sets of rings (only changing the rings on the one piston, got extra in case i break one). King has finally released the correct connecting rod bearing part number but it's not in stock at summit yet (Part number CR6902XP)

I still need to order an oem gasket kit and a crank.

Upon reviewing my emails with FP and confirming with a caliper on the good turbo, the CHRA were GT28RS. This means the turbine housing is machined and modified to take anything from a GT28 to a Gen2 GTX2876. ATPturbo has the GT2871R super cores for $948 and if i get them with the Nissan 2 bolt inlet, 3 bolt outlet compressor housing, I will only need to modify the hot pipes slightly.

I don't want to end up with headgasket issues so I plan on staying under the 800whp mark and since the plain old GT2871R will do that, I don't see the need to spend an extra $1k to get the GTX version.
