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~

    • 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
