nah ross, i just came up with the idea myself really, i mean i knew some people did it, and i figured it was better to have the pipe crossing under the car where its cooler rather than through the hot engine bay....

xu6 was hsv's supercharged and tweaked v6 commie, problem was when the ba falcon came out, the base 6cyl model out performed it

lol - nice progress on the engine development holden. ford are killin em in this department - quad cam v8's and dohc 6's.

yeah the x-over in the engine bay seems a bit silly. so yeah - is that a 90degree silicon bend or solid pipe?

ok the pipes cost me 150 bucks from memory

there were 2 45deg mandrel bends, 2 90 degree mandrel bends, and 1 180 degree mandrel bend. no silicone bends, silicon turbo pipe was costly (red joiners) but that was about it, only thing i have to do is support the pipes a little better cause when you hit it with full boost they move around a little bit

ross um

only other pic is www.ozemail.com.au/~jcornford/ic2.JPG

the pipes were done by ashmore exhaust, and then i just had to cut em to suit, it was a bit of a bitch tho, in the end i cobbled it together rather roughly but it works, theres a few things that could be done to tidy the whole thing up if i get the time, which i incidently have now, i just need to get the effort :D

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
