Flame Red S14 Zenki

[silverzx]

Interesting weekend..

Change some FMIC pipes and found a fair bit of black sludge in the inlet side of the FMIC which is potentially oil from the turbo.









Also did a cold compression test with throttle closed (next time I'll do warm with throttle wide open) which came back about 7 - 7.5 bar across all 4 cylinders. Yes its low but it's all equal / near enough and with a warm engine and throttle open it should read higher. I'll do that end of the week to double check. 

This does however kind of confirm that my turbos dead so I'll be sourcing another. The turbo on the car has about 1cm of in/out play but no side to side.

Oh, and I hit a bank...



I also picked up a set of modified hubs, arms, tension rods and brand new jap speed steering arms. Should gain some epic lock, the mod's were done by Sam Mocock of kyouto drift.
