I have just installed 444cc injectors in my rb20, running an rb20 apexi pfc. do i need a resistor pack or not? ive been told i do and dont and this thread seems to say do. so????
Do it!
Or run the risk of smoking the PFC.

is it possible to put an rb20 head on a L20 bottom end if so how hard
I thought about doing this to a L28 with an rb25 head for about 5 minutes.
Anything can be done but not worth the effort in this case.
I think the best option for an rb engine in the r30 is to use an r31 engine crossmember and also adapting the rack and pinion steering.

best thing you can bolt to an L series is an OS Giken twincam head.... good luck finding one though haha.
Years ago I borrowed a book on the 'L' series and it mentioned the OS Giken twincam head.
Apparently it cost US$20,000 and was ultra rare more than 25 years ago.

It looks like your a/c belt.
Your a/c compressor has probably seized.
Just pull out the broken belt and it should be fine to drive around.

r32 are all top feed.
gtst 270cc high impedance
gtr 440cc low impedance

How did you try the AFM?
-
Available from Racebrakes.
Apparently Elig have been around for years as an OEM manufacturer of brake pad backing plates but have only recently bought out their own pads.
They've only released pads for a few cars but include Skylines.
They are available in two compounds 2021 (fast street) and RS600 (street /trackday)
I searched for Elig on SAU and found nothing but I googled them and found some WRX workshops offering them as part of an upgrade brake package.
I found almost no feedback as to how they perform.
Has anyone here tried them or am I going to be the guinea-pig?

Nobody will be able to give you specific info if they don't know the type of car or the brand of the coilovers.

Sikaflex is a range of products.
You don't want the hard setting one for taillights
It comes in a 365g cartridge for a squeeze gun.

Make sure you use epoxy resin to glass it, not the cheap polyester stuff.
Better still trim bits of the plastic offcuts to fit the gaps and get them plastic welded into place

You should never be revving a cold engine to 4000rpm.
If the motor won't run after starting maybe the auxillary air valve could be stuffed.
Did you replace the sparkplugs? if that doesn't help it could be coils.
Is the TS bov plumb back?
-
Depends if its gtst or gtr/gts4
R32 gts/gtst is the same as r33 non turbo.
-
To suit what bore size?
-
Not aware of different gear ratios but series 1 has a push clutch and series 2 uses a pull type.
-
Is this for a 32 gtst?
Is it full stainless?
Any dents?
Pics?
-
Still available.
Fits either side.
-
My car does this everytime.
Locks me out everytime I close the door with the engine running,
I carry a spare key in the back of my wallet which I always keep in my pocket.

How much power would the stock gtt pump handle with a wiring upgrade?
-
if it seized up shortly after it was installed, sounds like there was still moisture in the system or it overheated, maybe dont go to that place that installed it. it shouldnt seize that easily, its possible they didnt vac out the moisture, which can lead to compressor failure
They did a thorough flush and ran nitrogen in the system prior to oiling and gassing it.
It was cold as but had a bit of a rattle from the start that slowly deteriorated over several weeks until it became a loud knock and seized.
It's likely it was on the way out when the car it came from was wrecked or it wasn't sealed up for several months that it sat in the halfcut.
I was told reco kits aren't available.
Has anyone had one of the locally available new ones fitted?
If so what needs to be changed for it to fit?
-
did u purchase the ac compressor from the wreckers? if u did there should be like 1 months
warranty on it? there pretty expensive i would reckon to buy it brand new.
think u be better of getting another used one from the wreckers that have warranty on it.
i brought one of the forum for $100 buxs my mechanic installed and regassed it for me and found out there was a crack/leak in the compressor wasted to $200 buxs fitting and gassing it as well..
Mine came off a halfcut($50) and worked ok for a few weeks before it progressively developed a rattle and then a knock and finally seized.
It cost $400 to fit.They used a new dryer and flushed the system and tested it for leaks with nitrogen, found a leak and fitted a new hose and put new oil in the system before they gassed it.
Even if they would give me another second hand pump you can never get warranty on fitting of used parts by a third party so all that money apart from the hose was wasted.
I talked to the guy who fitted it after it failed and he said to only consider another second handy if I could find one that was still in a car working before a degas and seal it up immediately so I'm hoping to find someone stripping a wreck or racecar otherwise I'll have to find a newy.
-
Paid $400 to have a second-hand a/c compressor fitted and regassed but it seized up after a few weeks so I 'd rather not risk another second hand one.
Has anyone fitted a new compressor? Part no.?
Thanks
-
Must have been sealed after system was degassed.
I know some r33 ones also fit.
Can pick up from Goldcoast / Brisbane area.

Of course ride height will be determined by spring choice.
I fitted kings lows and had to have new grooves machined in my konis for a higher ride height just to keep guard to wheel-centre measurement at 340mm.
Top Performance quoted me $250 to $300 a pair to revalve my konis.
Manual And Auto R32 Gearbox Crossmembers
in Drivetrain and transmission
Posted
Mmm not much help to the op as this thread is over 2 years old but for the record.
R32 manual and auto and r33 manual and presumably also r33 auto cross members are basically the same.
The A, B, C stamps on them designate the different setback of the chassis bolt holes relatively to the centre mount holes in 5mm steps.
I'm not sure if the particular letter designates manual or auto or whether they are graded to account for manufacturing discrepancies.
I know it's been said before but a lot of people still seem confused, the difference between the r32 manual and auto cross member bolt up is that the holes in the auto floorpan are 50mm further back than they are in the manual floorpan.
The r33 gtst manual box is a straight boltup into the r32 auto.
