It does mention grout filled blocks, so maybe it's applicable to those setups? Plenty of SAU guys race their cars from grassroots motorsports (me) all the way to competition level ( @Duncan @34GeeTeeTee etc.) and we all don't have issues with water cooling or flow, it's more so keeping oil temps within its working parameters.
-
It's the mounting, and making hose part that is giving me anxiety lol. Sure, I plumbed my fuel and oil system myself but yeah nah I'm done with doing shit now.
-
Man the thought of implementing it scares me, I have no time these days and no space to take on such projects. Also not keen on getting a shop to do it because they would charge too much.
-
Just had a look, very cool. They probably don't announce it so they don't draw a crowd. Makes filming and risk management much easier. Meanwhile, donating more money to the car gods. Some donate to charities, some donate to churches, some to pokies, I donate to car gods.

You have a 4 rib PS belt, for whatever reason they threw the intern to design the R33 RB25DET PS and he/she thought a 3 rib belt would have been great on the R33 RB25DET. They probably realised it was a bad idea, a generation later they went back to a 4 rib.
-
I need to buy that BMW, first just need to offload this shit box. Funny how Nissan went from a 4 rib to a 3 rib then back to a 4 rib belt power steering belt throughout the shit box RB era. I suppose revving the car 2700rpm past its intended rev limiter doesn't help either LOL.
-
RB shit box curse. Don't see JZs with this problem. Just waiting on the Ross PS idler kit to come, hopefully a good bandaid. I hate this car, literally drive the heap of shit once a month and of course once a month something breaks, albeit small. #90sJDMshitbox

I remember reading somewhere Link now supports canbus keypads, and you can adapt whatever you like. I believe same applies to MoTec, just buy any Grayhill keypad and off you go. No need to be locked into Haltech's ecosystem.
-
Unfortunately Haltech only supports Haltech branded Greyhill canbus keypads. I recall it has to do it with the address used.

Drove to Scarborough for lunch, snapper fish pie was decent, even had prawns in it. Then drove home, gave it a hit and kissed the limiter and left my 50km old PS belt somewhere on the highway lol. Shitbox tings.

Sourcing a External Wastegate Spring
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to Chereboy's topic in General Automotive Discussion
Personally I would replace that wastegate, if you're really wanting to stick with that one for period correctness then I would try contact Turbosmart. Judging by the photos, a Turbosmart spring might just work. Saves you from the HKS tax and international shipping. -
Picked up this mud kitchen from PL Fabrication for free. I assume I've spent enough money there so the least he could do is give it away for free LOL. Anyhow, lightly sanded the cnut down and then hit it with Dulux outdoor paint, can't remember what colour it is (missus chose it) but I'm a bit colour blind so let's call it light grey. I suppose you could say #builtnotbought lol. Next will fit a water dispenser.

Turbo Beanie VS No Turbo beanie
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to djvoodoo's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
I'm just using a PTP one, so far it hasn't spontaneously combusted yet lol... Has been two motors, plenty of heat, plenty of anti-lag LOL.. -
I'm not a fan of putting it on the return side, you have issues when say there's not enough fuel flow, god forbid air pockets, and your ethanol sensor isn't sampling correctly. This could happen say during a high G event. Sure you can set sampling thresholds such as you need x bar of fuel pressure, y RPM however better practice to have it on the feed side. OEM cars run deadhead systems with the flex sensor on them without issue, also those Continental flex sensors will happily take nearly 10 bar of fuel pressure. FWIW (also subjective) I run mine on the feed between the main tank and surge tank.

Turbo Beanie VS No Turbo beanie
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to djvoodoo's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
The way it should be done! Most of these "Instagrammable" cars would ignite after one lap of a real circuit. -
Turbo Beanie VS No Turbo beanie

Because most of these single turbo conversion guys only use it for drag racing or roll racing. Car is on noise for like a whole 8 to 12 secs. Put any of those cars around the GP Circuit at Eastern Creek and watch things melt.
