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~

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
