Z idles at around neg 9psi but that's all the numbers you get. Sure the pulsar is reading in psi not hmgm or what ever that jap measurement is.

G'Box off, List of Parts. What would you change?
Do the reverse switch aswel, they are cheap here though use an xtrail one it's the same and a third of the price. Also gear stock bushes.

Early start anyone, ie before anyone else arrives haha

You only create positive pressure or boost over a certain rpm. Roughly 3500k for a stockish car, obviously when you change gear come off boost etcs vacuum is recreated and stored there by the one way valve. Off boost the car produces roughly 7-9psi of vacuum pressure. Watch your boost gauge swing negative to positive whilst driving.

Good news!
There were loads of nice looking clean na's when I was buying mine, my dad kept suggesting them. I knew I had to get a tt, if I had got an na I'd be wishing I got a tt. Same with my old car I had a 2l but always wanted the 2.8

Neutral switches and engine timing
Il have a chat with my mate see if we can get data scan on the go. If I can't be doing with the neutral switch can I just set the base timing to 25 btdc. What I'm more concerned with is working out accurately what my timing is as I have I timing marks on the crank pulley.

Neutral switches and engine timing
It's my understanding that when the car is put in gear the timing should change. This should be noticeable on the rev counter, well it's not. Revs raise when you depress the clutch then stay the same as you select a gear. Trouble is my bottom pulley has no marks on it.... So what should I do first?

boost leak test
The fsm recommends 5psi, this is because your pressurising part of the system that operates under vacuum only during running conditions. As a result of that you will be applying positive pressure to the heads and oil system via the breather system. If your pcvs are deleted this is irrelivant. It's those two tubes that connect from the cam covers to the accordion pipes that cause the issue. Over pressurising 20+ year old seals is a bad idea.
