I dunno, allwell updates are as follows, pulled everything off today left and right side of motor. Injectors, rail manifold turbo, lines front/dump pipe, replaced the manifold studs awaiting the gasket from 3lit3_32 (aka Dan) tommorow and should have everything bolted back together by tommorow evening, I have to admit its an experience of a life time when ya first do a job like this, especially thos broken manifold studs and removing the fuel rail for the injectors.

Will take some pics when the job is done, HOPEFULLY with no bolts missing or left over cough cough i hate when that happens. But so far so good.

For those noting on broken manifold studs, Im too lazy to do this part myself also noted do not have the tools to do it mind you.

But if you are in the brisbane QLD region Thread Tek are the way to go (1300 THREAD) they may take all afternoon to get there, but 15 minutes for them to remove 3 manifold studs well worth it. Only problem $99.00 to remove those 3 studs, awell had to be done thanks guys.

Also Lees exhaust on moss street, $1.00 per manifold stud being the M10 x 1.25 pitch 50mm and 50c per nut, well worth it beats repco anyday for those parts. :)

Also must thank Dan (3lit3_32) for his assistance so far and being able to get parts at a hard to beat price :) hope i can add that.

Anyway that is all and will keep you guys posted

Cheers and out

Ok so my compression values are in and leak down values what do you guys think:

Cyl1: 155 8%

Cyl2: 155 9%

Cyl3: 150 10%

Cyl4: 155 12%

Cyl5: 150 12%

Cyl6: 155 9%

Since last dyno made 178.9 rwkws before front pipe install so still running standard front pipe and dump

Also did power run whilst doing comp values to see if still in tune, seems that it is and with the new front pipe being the 3" complete front and dump comes to a new value of 197.3 rwkws.

The difference in IT's was 39 before and new of 41 with this one

So i think it would be safe to say that my project should be done mid november now :) woohoo

Cheers

no offence man, but those leakdown figures are bad.

Mine was no more than 3% after 100,000km, and 10,000km of that was with a GT30 at 18psi, and 40,000km was with the standard turbo making 210rwkw with toluene at 13psi. All cylinders were above 160psi - but your compression is ok...Jus the leakdown...its not good...Well thats just me.

You might want to get a rebuild before you start moving to cams etc.

You'll get HEAPS more power by putting in forgies, rods, and lowering the compression a tiny bit to run more boost.

Cams won't do that much difference at this stage, but make your motor wear a little quicker.

    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
    • Probably. I take it that they are also mentioned to be for R34 Skyline? For example.... RDA has that part as RDA7957. I have the dimpled and slotted version of that on my car https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285518478694?srsltid=AfmBOopKxMuAFpsxZJdB1cam4D5RAj1f9yJyOttPZLAwXVNCOiwlhrIy This is DBA's top one piece equivalent https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364246686631?srsltid=AfmBOorbb0XHQgqTvZLgQPhg70nqJtGvdojKnugum3O2LFSr2h-obp8D  
    • Ok i will get those 310mm. I found one but on a different site. This is the description on those...is it ok? Technical parameters: - Axle: front. - Disc type: ventilated. - Number of holes: 5. - Disc diameter: 310mm. - Total height with center: 54mm. - Thickness (new/min.): 30/28mm. - Designed for brake calipers manufacturer: Sumitomo.
