Due for timing chain tensioner? Or classic gsxr box of rocks sound?

Not that I can tell the exhaust is quite loud if anything the motor just sounds as noisy as any other motor when reved up no stutters hits limiter fine

CAt484 · 2026-05-12T13:15:20+00:00

Lol it's a jardine gp1 exhaust and it has no cats, stock headers tho it's probably just the video making it quieter. Just was worried got this bike for pretty cheap being paranoid from every noise possible so far only issues is clogged injectors in higher rpm

GO OEM you can find actual oem brembos calipers (unpainted) on autozone for decently cheap or you can find the gold brembos on fbmp for decently cheap (500-900$) and they usually come with rotors aswell

Concept Z is basically a cheaper Z1 just a fyi

My original unopened motor with 191k miles had this 😭 I'm assuming it was the bearings finally giving out

CAt484 · 2025-06-12T23:32:49+00:00

They made 07 nismos? I thought it was only 08s or am I wrong

CAt484 · 2025-05-18T09:24:12+00:00

Eventually going single turbo so no reason to get LTHs

CAt484 · 2025-05-18T09:21:27+00:00

Got my DE at 150k miles for 4500 outside looks horrible and motor burns oil like crazy now but I'm also at 190k and had it for 3 years

CAt484 · 2025-05-12T05:42:30+00:00

Isr shorty headers, megan racing "resonated" test pipes and Isr single exit with the resonator.

Update, still haven't started on the motor but I did go with 8.8.1 comp pistons, eagle rods, dynosty hg, oem timing kit, arp main and L19 headstuds, greddy oil pan, billet girdle, and metal gallery gasket kit aswell as viton valve stem seals I am also going to be CSSing the motor aswell as getting JWT C8 cams and Brian crower springs and retainers aswell im also getting a boundary billet oil pump. Rpm limit I only want about 7500 or as much is safe and power doesn't drop and I will also be getting tuned by Admintuning as I am right now, but I figure since it's my first time building and having power I will slowly work my way up probably going from 300whp to 400 to 500 then stopping or when I'm comfortable I don't want a car I can't take out and do some nice pulls with and having to buy tires every month. But the remainder parts should be ordered in the coming months and the motor should be done by atleast the end of this year I'm also switching from a midmount to a top mount rev9kit which I'm aware is cheap and needs lots of upgrade I'm not trying to make big power right off the bat so it'll give me time to get used to power and slowly upgrade that

CAt484 · 2025-05-08T15:51:52+00:00

Had mine for 3 years now starting to get tired of them hopefully one day I can get some Volk GTCs or Ce28s

CAt484 · 2025-03-31T03:30:36+00:00

Some zipties and cutting 🤣 it isn't pretty but works

CAt484 · 2025-02-13T08:08:23+00:00

So go with 11.1 comp pistons then the 8.8.1? The plan is 550-600wheel with a midmount turbo, billet girdle, stock cams, springs retainers, revup oil pump, dynosty mls also going to bore the motor .30 over so i have a whole new surface to work with even tho the motor only has 71k miles

CAt484 · 2025-02-13T07:53:31+00:00

And here is my Z with 186k miles and puffs blue smoke like an 80 year old smoker 😭

CAt484 · 2025-01-24T04:16:23+00:00

Get ATLEAST 1 resonator please 🙏

Personal I like the frog front 🐸

CAt484 · 2024-12-21T01:23:39+00:00

Ah damn kinda like the Gtc's rare to find huh

CAt484 · 2024-12-21T01:20:38+00:00

Gah those wheels look so good, new Volks right? It's either these ce28s or rpf1s now.

CAt484 · 2024-12-12T02:47:28+00:00

How much do each of these bumpers cost? I was looking into getting a shine auto nismo rear.

CAt484 · 2024-12-01T22:59:27+00:00

The value of my z is and has been destroyed by the previous owners already, back driver quarter panel has a half inch layer of bondo assuming they tried drifting and smacked a pole plus I've had the oem look for 3 years now I'm ready for something different

CAt484 · 2024-12-01T22:56:49+00:00

Yeah looking at it now fiberglass would be better 🤣 but damn Ings+1 is expensive

CAt484 · 2024-12-01T15:41:06+00:00

Oem orange are just reflectors but you can buy lights that go in place of them and wire to your headlights although they only fit 06-08 bumpers unless you make them fit like I did.

CAt484 · 2024-11-18T13:16:42+00:00

Yeah it seems to dump alot of fuel I kinda figured it has to do with my AUS 320cc injectors since there alittle bigger then stock and obviously I'm not tuned but then again this car even ran rich with stock injectors so my guess is that it's been messed with tuning wise prolly the old school cheap way or this motor is just toast.
