More vibration woes....
situations like this i just run it up off the floor,any wobbles soon become visible.A Diff issue will drone usually,drop some oil out and take a look at it,the first part that comes out is the best tell tale as to the health of the component be it a gearbox or a diff.Check the rear cv joint on the prop also for excess movement

Just Resubbed

plenum grinding to fit 360 fuel rail info ?
if you get a 95 plenum the grinding isnt needed.Youll need a die grinder otherwise with a carbide bit.Thats what i use anyway.

Rear Subframe bushes
Unless your really wanting new bushes then locking collars are the way to go,simple to fit and way cheaper.Its very rare for vehicles to have bushes where the subframe meets the body,i can only guess Nissan were looking for comfort when they designed it that way.Youll not even notice the difference if im honest when the collars are fitted apart from the loose feel at the rear will be gone.

Valve stem seal replacement...
The hardest part will be compressing the valves,youll need to make a tool up to do it,i used to do many cars years ago like this but they were much easier to work on than a 300zx.

supercar mega build tonight 8pm, nissan gt-r

No boost
im afraid its not good news,as the turbos pressure is equalised in the plenum by the balance bar you have one turbo trying to feed 6 cylinders hence the 0 reading,And the fact its been standing points to a seized turbo even more so.To ascertain which one cable tie a rubber glove on the outlet pipe from each turbo and start the car and rev it slightly.If it balloons its boosting and if not its seized.

Youll never stop that rusting welding in metal like that im afraid,needs to be primed before its fitted with weld through primer like Wurth Zinc Heil or similiar if you want it to last.

EU: Leave or Remain
Id like out too be honest,we are an Island and have our own ways of doing things,i dont like the fact decisions are made by people who dont understand our culture and way of life.And i certainly dont like propping up countries who lied to get into Europe for subsidies.Talks today of raising again the retirement age to 75,In Greece its 52 !!! and they want bailouts from us,crazy !!

ohms test your injectors,14 is the correct reading,if its over the pintle doesnt lift correctly and the spray pattern is compromised causing smoking,more apparent at idle.
