noisey lifters? exhaust mani gasket?

wrong side of the engine for exhaust. and its not an air sound...if you know what i mean.

could be lifters...prob should see a mechanic...but dont have time. in a way i hope it f**ks up so i can do this conversion quicker....but if it does then i cant really sell it...so hopefullly its nothing major.

oh yeah and painting is next week...priming etc was on done on saturday....looking for someone to flare the guards before saturday....anyone know anyone?

wooohooo my car no longer missfires of has stupid knock levels on pfc

twas an easy fix removed coilpacs and plugs gave it all a really good clean with electrical contact clean and lube put all back in and car is going schweet

#2 spark plug had white powder stuff all on the top side of it and a little bit of rust this coensides with the place i am missing one of the coilpack cover allen bolts so water had cot in and sat there

also found my 12mm socket in there sitting on the nut holding in the coilpacks - was wondering where that got to....

shithouse ones ;)

nope

meh, u were waaaay down the list buddy :)

P.S howd the car come up paint and kit wise?????

and depends what it sounds like, could be bigend, but if its bigend it woulda gotten HEAPS worse by now, like the vid of my gtr i showed u

i wanna see vid shane

clever....but not in the mood for stoopidity atm

meh its k..

no does sound like a big end cause you cant hear it on idle..and only when the engine starts getting some load on it.

yeah and it still runs fine and revs fine.

sorry rohan.. :P

perhaps its ur intake gasket if its the other side of the engine.. detonation.. get a screw driver and prod around..

its not an air sound unfortunately, and its not detonation cause it is happening at 4000rpm no matter how far the car is boosted, whether it be still under negative vaccum or positive pressure.

It was far too stock for its own good.

indeed it was. and i only got to drive it on boost ~3 times :)

I guess this will make sense will i've met Dan

yeh he's easy to spot, just look for the big goofy bastard :action-smiley-069:

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • 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
