Hi everyone!!

Finally the mods are starting to get fitted, its more exciting than xmas ...just one more sleep :) .

The hi flo turbo and rest of the zorst is being fitted tommorow but something is bugging me, shouldnt i really be upgrading the exhaust manifold too? how restrictive is the stock one? has anyone replaced theres (apart from the hi mount turbo guys) ?

Cheers

PS Wildcat im almost ready for ya :yes:

Hahhahaha :laughing-smiley-014:

:) arrr i see i will have competition soon :) a stocker compared to the mods your getting done im about to see more off your ass :D

stock manifolds are excellent bits of kit, good for 300rwkw i think i read.

No doubt, your stock one will be cracked. They almost all are, thats cast iron for ya.

300Rwkw?? thats impressive, ok so no point spending the extra bux on that then

Cheers

was chasing a quote on the manifold, before i posted ...just had the call back with the quote... $980 + fitting, is this a serious quote?? i could be nieve but this aint a HKS, Greddy etc brand and its a low mount not a hi mount with external wastegate mountings .....so is this a bit steep or what??

.... i told em i would leave it for now cheers for the previous info guys

Cheers

dont need a manifold lee, waste of time, and dont bother with the china rubbish either. a good trust one or something is over $1500 for the manifold plus fitting (for a highmount anyway), so i'd imagine low mount is same price roughly as its still the same amount of runners and flanges. save the cash and stocky will be fine :)

my aircon line is in the way so i couldnt even get the dump pipe past it ... no a tight fit just wouldnt fit ...oh wells i ordered a new one so hopefully tomorrow will be better ...hahaha anyone know someone that wants a dump n front pipe?? ahhah

Cheers

yeah i know... i argued with the guy over the phone then went to see what his was talking about, we even got the auto electrician to have a look to see if we could move the aircon pipe.

Turned out to be cheaper to just buy a new bell mouth dump pipe, if i hadnt seen it myself i would still be going off at the guy ...but there was no way it was gonna fit ... i was gonna try the force approach till he quickly reminded me i would probably break the line. :P

He did say it was possible part way thru production there way have been a change in the aircon design or manufacturer or of coarse mine may have been replaced/repaired ..who knows but that may have caused the problem.

Hopefully today it will all be done, and i have a spare one if anyone wants one :dry:

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
