Which Cam Belt?
I still rate them just not for zeds after that,had me baffled a bit at the time as to why belt was so tight.i do still use their range of serpentine belts when i install underdrive pulleys.

Which Cam Belt?
Ive always rated gates belts until i tried fitting one too a zed,was like a bow string with the tensioner in its most furthest away position,changed to an oem one and :thumbup:

A Few questions about the TT engine
Any good quality rtv sealer suitable for automotive applications is fine,the higher temp the better.Loads on e bay if you look.If you want some plates for the plenum i have some already made and could post you my home made crank pulley puller if you like.

Hicas removal, whats needed?
you dont need it thats why.If you saw the banjo off the old pipe,the metal tube thats left will go into the other hose looping the pipes together.

Getting stuck sensors out...
Dude they are brass in Aluminium,are you Monty Burns or something,a quick grrr and they come out,ive never known one that tight,ones a 19mm an the others 12 iirc,make sure you use the ring end of a spanner or a semi deep socket to avoid rounding them off.You will lose minimal coolant when changing those.

What sort of performance could i be getting??
400ish tops with those mods,the tubs wont gain you much being stage one as thats just a thrust bearing upgrade.You will be able to gain a few psi safely but they wont set the world alight im afraid.Youd do well by porting the heads to get as much as possible from the tubs if you could.

What do you really hate?
wtf ?? im confused by your statement? he pays alot more than you in tax trust me.

what do I need for 15psi safely?
Be going around tracks on two wheels and a door handle once you get that fitted mate,oil surge will be a distant memory :gunsmilie:
-
what do I need for 15psi safely?
Its not the rods that caused the failures in the pictures,The bearings seized,spun in the rod then welded the crank and rod together,the fact that Marks was an eagle rod proves It can happen to any rod,corrillo etc doesnt matter how good it is.The stock rods are not weak and are forged as previously stated.They will withstand 500hp no problem.im running just under this and use the car in anger regular at 18psi and the bottom end is perfect after 400o miles.

disc warping?
Dont buy inferior discs,dont drive car like you stole it for prolonged periods,and if the discs are hot avoid large puddles as the rapid cooling can warp them.

Fluctuating revs on warm start
Im sorry but which bit of the video was the problem in bud,i thought she behaved rather well imho.Ive just watched a video of a car allowed to idle for a bit switched off and then fluttered very slightly upon restart and proceeded to run smooth.If that is a problem youll need deep pockets and patience to resolve all the other z32 things youll encounter.Id leave that well alone imho.The rpm did look low slightly but a consult check would say for sure.
