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~

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
