Hey ppls,

Well, I got myself a Radiator from Just Jap and it arrived a few hours ago.

It's now fitted and the car has been pressure tested and guess what...

No leaking!

No steam out the exhaust, no badness at all.

Thank goodness gracious!

Anywho. Just thought you all might want to know.

BASS OUT

(I'm off to pick up some radiator guides)

Make sure you change the oil ASAP poiter if you havent already.

It will be stuffed

Would also be interested to know? Could understand if the oil/water had mixed but he said no leakage.

Great news Pete and quickly fixed. :(

Why must hte oil be changed? Is this because of the new intercooler? Or was there something else that happend to bassjunky's car?

He basically cooked the oil, temps were massive and then didnt get a chance to cool them down once the radiator let go as you cant drive the car :(

So the oil just sat there boiling away in the nice steamy confines of his motor :(

The oil "might" be ok, but that sorta stuff isnt worth the hassle for the sake of 5 ltrs of oil and half an hour of your life.

Easier to change it and not worry about running degraded oil in a motor for X,XXX km's

Interesting, not heard this before. Valid point though. :(

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
