What's the plan for oil and water lines? gonna get the makita out and tap that shit yourself? Going stock lines or braided?

Was reading over Dans thread and he used the heater hoses and oil was from one of the lines from the oil filter relocation kit.

Ahh I see. The toit method, like it. How do n/a injectors compare to turbo ones? Do you need the turbo ecu too?

Toit?

Will need turbo injectors and better fuel pump. Wanted to get the bulkier, harder to find peices first.

Ecu- nistune. :)

Sorry. Slang for tightass among my mates haha.

Yeah fair enough. I reckon all those odds and ends are going to end up costing just as much as a whole new engine :s people want silly money for r34 turbos in particular. Did you see the hiflowed 34 turbo in the four sale section? Only 600. Pretty good considering a stock one will probably cost 300

Hey all. First post this weekend I think. Did so much to Kathryn's ute

Spent 6 hours trying to get one side of the upper control arm out.

Put it back together do the other side should only take about 2 to do now I know how to do it and have the right tool

Then the ball joints. Swap the pian arm for the right one tomorrow

And gearbox back in tomorrow after a rebuild

Hahah verrrry verrrrrrrrry productive weekend and verry tiring

Makes sense.

I've worked out that this should all cost about $1500 (as a rough estimate). The majority of parts purchased can be bolted on to the DET block if we go down that path in the future. Saw the high flow and was very interested... We are also doing this on strict numbers as it really is Chants project.

Planning to do this more as a staged project. It does mean that you get a few extra parts along the way but means that it's drive able more often.

Part 1 - factory turbo RB25DE+T

Gather most of the main parts and get her going

Part 2 - 30 bottom end

Past 3 - 25/30DET with 3076.

cool should be good in the end

This is so true!

Though I will say the chosen method seems likely to give you more pains in the ass than normal but Anna and I learned a hell of a lot form our pain in the ass project that could have been done easier.

There's almost always a better way to do things. Taken a look at practicality, cost, ease, cost, cost etc this seems to work.

Are you talking about the 32 gtst?

I actually dont think it will work from an ease point of view and also quite possibly a cost point of view (Have seen whole NEOs go for 1100 ish) but after you are done you will know a whole lot more about the car which is good.

Nah not so much the R32, it was a series of unfortunate events and shit workshops. The Sil80 was the one where we spent endless time screwing around trying to get factory bits to work ect ect. Not lots of money, just countless hours finding parts lol

Well I've been stuck with trying to figure out this GameCube emulator.....nothing is easy when it comes to me and computers. I'm not a god damn IT specialist!!! GRrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!

I hate computers with a passion~

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
