r32-25t

They are going to replace any of the seam sealer that’s damaged and a couple of little thing and then leave the rest of it how it is and paint it the same as the outside

Bay got blasted today gets etch primer tomorrow and then paint during the week

Interesting! I haven’t had any issues with mine, I also didn’t get to drive it much before the engine came out

I completely understand, it’s the same reason I haven’t made the jump

I’ve seen an evo that was insured with them get a full respray after it was keyed

It’s a 33 engine that had never been rebuilt so at least 23yrs old, yeah I had the engine protection kept tripping because oil pressure dropping until I put the big sump on it those were by far the worst of the lot but all of the bearings showed signs of issues, luckily the crank is still perfect and should be able to sell it

I’m currently with Shannon’s but I also think my car is under insured

Pulled the old engine apart today because I need the oil squirters out of it for the new engine looks like I pulled the engine out just at the right time because they were ready to knock and start damaging things

I have a ppg and not an os88, the person you want to ask is @Piggaz he had the os88 before swapping to the ppg

For an r32 gtr I need one of the bolts for the front of the front crossmember. It’s the set the are linked together with a bracket up top and then drops down through the chassis rail willing to pay for the part and postage as required cheers Brett

Looks really good

Because 735kw is harder to say and doesn’t sound as impressive

It’s alright, you’ll still be impressed when you drive it 🙂

Did a bit of running around today, first I picked up the engine covers I had the powder coat removed and am going to have them painted after I decide on a colour then off to rams to pick the head up all ported and the chambers opened up and all the good bits fitted and valve clearances set also because I was told the Jun cams had to much lift and duration rams supplied some new cams for me Only kidding 😝

The one from the pump to the rh front and the one from the pump to the rear are the 2 that aren’t listed on the nismo site or on amayama as being available

I checked their site again and they only have 3 of the 5 lines for the abs version

Ok I’ll have to have another look, when I was looking the picture shown was always the non abs version

The parts I’d really like to buy is the brake lines, Nismo heritage have some of them but according to their pictures they don’t have the complete abs versions. they have the lines that go from the master to the pump but don’t have the ones that go from the pump to the left and right fronts or the one that goes from the pump to the rear. And nissan in their wisdom made both abs and non abs lines the same part numbers despite them being completely different shapes and sizes

There’s always these little things you never expect but I’d rather just do it and end up with a perfect job

Because of needing the bay to go back to bare metal the shop tried to use stripper to remove the paint and because it wouldn’t remove the undercoat it was decided blasting is the only option. Because of that he wanted the cross member removed and while I was there I removed a the rest of the lines and grabbed plugs for all the AN lines blasting is booked and so is the tow truck

Going to grab the wiring specialties one and remove the wires I don’t require and replace them with ones that I do need ie. Load cell and pressure sensors a

I’ve never had 850s building cars is a journey and one I’m happy I took because I enjoy working on my car not writing cheques for other people to do it. so unless you actually have anything useful to say I’d appreciate if you troll other parts of the forum, like I give you to the courtesy of staying out of your threads

Injector have been changed twice and turbos 3 times at least I’m not the mack daddy of the 80k rust bucket

Yeah I will be replacing the engine harness, just look at it being almost 30yrs old and it’s out at the moment so may as well

He argued that till he was blue in the face and went quiet after I hit him with “does the Japanese vin start with bcnr33?”
