Seano350GT Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) Hey Sean Check this out would be a awesome investment: http://www.skylinesa...22#entry6710922 I was just looking at that thread lol, i am a sucker for dish so i'm not a fan of these. However, these are my next set of wheels for sure but probably in a 19'' Work Varianza T1S, they are discontinued but there's still a vendor in the states that's got a good supply of them so hopefully when i'm ready for my next set i can get my hands on these.

89CAL Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 So Apparently the ARP bolts at their slightly higher then OEM torque specs caused the girdle to distort slightly and this is why the crank was locking up. didnt appear as a problem at standard torque but did at ARP torque settings. So hopefully all good now Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/139867-mackay-qld-australia/page/128/#findComment-6712259 Share on other sites More sharing options...

89CAL Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Today I managed to get the oil pump fitted up, sat the timing gear and plates in, knocked all the welsch plugs in, fitted the knock sensors and fittings to the block, (all will probably have to come back out but saves losing them in the mess i have) and dummy fitted the sump. Still trying to find an alternative to plumbing the rear head drain into the intake side of the sump. It's so busy on that side with the starter motor, alot of the wiring and water plumbing as well as the underside of the manifold. But its the best place to plumb it because of the way the sump baffle slopes. Guess it will have to wait till the engine is more together to see where it will fit Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/139867-mackay-qld-australia/page/128/#findComment-6714421 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mafia Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 Don't be too picky with the rear head drain. It acts more of a breather / air pressure equaliser more than a drain. Tests have been done and barely anything at all comes out of it.

Nur33 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Tee into the turbo oil drain fitting or other wise the sump, there is not that many options. All other lines are pressurised.

89CAL Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Yeah the turbo drain is an option. But the new turbo doesnt really have any oil restriction as compared to the HKS item I have. so will have alot more oil flowing through it. But realistically there wont be that much oil combined from the head drain and the turbo drain to prevent the turbo drain from doing its job. think that might be the best option at the moment anyway, May just go with this. Yes I realise the head drain thing is either a good thing or completely useless depending on who you talk to. But as far as I can see, if your accelerating, your pushing oil to the back, so it cant hurt to have a drain there. My logic might not be right, but I feel it necessarty Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/139867-mackay-qld-australia/page/128/#findComment-6714504 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mafia Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 It's not useless cal, just doesn't drain much. It's useful because if you can equalise the pressure between the head and the sump, the oil will drain better. For example, if the pressure in the sump is greater than the head, oil isn't going to want to head that way easily.

dysonest Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) and pretty sure just cos theres no restricter in ur turbo feed its still like 1/4 or smaller then the size of ur drain, so i would think the drain will be big enuff for the turbo n head aswell..... does that make sense ?? ive had a few beers Edited January 21, 2013 by dysonest Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/139867-mackay-qld-australia/page/128/#findComment-6715870 Share on other sites More sharing options...
