So when are you getting the widebody JD 2.6 ? :O

Looked at my 4G63BT with the SOHC head off for the last 8 years under covers yesterday and could not belive how small it is compared to the RB20DET, yet it made more power when it was going with hardly any mods- 170RWKW!

heheeh

Widebody JD would be very very nice. I wouldnt do a VR4 conversion, simply because it takes the originality away from it. Maybe when Im a bit older Id love to buy one and restore it. I always have a soft spot for a starion!!!

That is farkking PORNNNNN!!!

Thats exactly what I would love to restore to its former glory.

Lots of people forget, but the Starion turbo was the grandaddy of the Jap turbo era.

For a car built in 1980, it had so many technical advancements and features that ACTUALLY worked, not like the gimmicks Nissan and toyota used in there early turbo cars.

Thanks man

I think ill be keeping this one for a little, a good bargain and something of a rarity. I think with this car, I can finally focus on ENJOYING driving, rather that worrying about my cars condition.

    • 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
