Don't put the drivers side mount in unless you want it vibrate at idle.
Also the two bolts for the pass side mount are in backwards. |
Sooooo puuuuurrrrrrttttttyyyyyy
I wish I was able to unbox mine like that. |

Answered my own question - yeah that's just how GTM shipped that pass side mount.

Yeah sorry. Didn't mean to email you. I went to reply to the PM and couldn't figure out where it went.
|
Is that all of the SC housing you got ,what attaches to the machine surface.
|
Not at the shop right now. It's the same kit you got so I'm sure I received whatever you did.
|
My housing doesn't look like that.
|
I'll ask the shop. Are you saying it's not supposed to look like that?

I'll have to send the shop an email. I'm in meetings all day tomorrow.
|
In between calls but I spoke to the shop and they said they've gone through the checklist for the kit and everything is there. The list even has pictures next to every item and it matches up but they're going to call Sam and double check just to be sure.
|
You should take my advise and leave the driver side OEM mount on.
And they got the bolts on backwards on the pass mount. |
I'm willing to deal with the vibration. I can always switch it back if I have to.
Edit: Bolts being fixed as we speak. |
Sam was the one who told me about it and I didn't like it so I switch it out.
|
Yeah I'm just gonna try it this way first.
Edit: Assuming the housing looks correct to you now? |

Man I'm excited for you. I want to hump that SC bracket.
|
Good pics,but would still like to see the pipe coming out of the SC going toward the intercooler.

Is that a question? Do you just want to see it or do you think something is wrong?

I'll ask them to take a picture today. No worries.
|
No pictures today but the headers are heat wrapped and the intercooler and oil cooler are mounted and wired. Gauges are in progress.
ETA to tune: 1 day. Estimated completion date: Wednesday, July 31st |
Not to be that guy here, but go real easy on it once you get it finished and tuned. You're adding a LOT of power. Be gentle at first. Things are going to happen a lot faster now.
|
I have a healthy dose of respect for what this is gonna feel like. I have no desire to lose control of it.
Absolutely no offense taken. I agree with you 100%. |
Yeah, there's a point about halfway through your first third through forth gear pull where you're thinking "no ******* way."
|
You may want to take a peak a the top radiator hose b/c it is suppose to be turned around backwards and it doesn't look like mine plus there is a kink in it.

I don't see a kink - point out what you're talking about? |

:hello: |
Yes, I understand that but which picture are you looking at? I don't see a kink.
Edit: Ok now I see it. It's hard to pick out because of the red hose. I'll bug the shop on Monday. |
Talked to my guy and the hose was already fixed because he noticed it yesterday.
He also said the oil cooler and power steering brackets came unpainted so he treated and painted them black for me. Otherwise no issues to report. Poor guy, I'm bugging him for updates on a Saturday. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

More fun from GTM. The bolt & bracket that hold the factory oil cooler on have to be swapped out and although GTM was well aware of this before the build started, they didn't provide it (literally, just a freaking bolt). When the shop called to ask them about it, they basically said "here's the nissan part you want, good luck".
The shop is mad at GTM. I'm unhappy but what can you do right? Can't even start running oil lines until we have this bolt so... tl;dr: New estimated completion date: Fri 8/2 or Sat 8/3. All for a $9.00 bolt. |
|
I'm waiting to see the pipes coming from the SC to the intercooler to see what GTM has changed.
