This is what the first lot of stuff looked like when i got it

dsc00047ue9.th.jpg

since then it has all been cleaned and painted and i have removed all the dags from the intake manifold, i have ported and polished the throttle body, and the turbo manifold has also had the dags removed from it.

someone else on the fourm

ah i remember!....

ive sourced one, and the guy only wants $40 (L20et), and $30 for the matching dizzy,

Do you think thats a good price??

( i got a few other things lined up, just depends on alot of factors... :) )

$40 is a good price

hey did you ever get a KA24E throttle body?

I have found one at my wreckers for $27.50, man they are big!

do you want me to get it for you? (im probably going there this weekend...)

thanks but no thanks i have a heap of stuff coming on the weekend so that will blow my budget for a few weeks and i think im going to give the stock one a try first

turbo is all cleaned up and checked over the impeller looks ok, there is no shaft play, however there was a bit of oil in the exhaust housing so i suspect it may be in need of a few new seals down the trak but apart from that it's all good

Hunt down some VG30et injectors 270cc's . They will be better suited to the higher compression of the l24 and displacement. Ive had them running on my l20et. Work well just a bit of AFM adjustment

ive already got a set of L20et ones so i will start off with them and might look at the VG30 ones down the trak i just want to get it all working first and then i will look at changing little bits and pieces but after its all working the first thing i will be doing is tracking down a N42 head and geting that worked fairly exstencively

I think VL turbo injectors are a good replacement too, at least you wont need to worry about pinging, and i was told that L20et injectors were almost maxed out on the 2lt... so it might be a bit dangerous on a 2.4lt especially since it will be under more boost than the 2lt too

i found som VLt injectors for $150 for the set... not too bad i think

there is a website called www.injectorsonline.com.au the sell brand new bosch VL turbo injectors for $80 each

i have almost got all the gear i need for the conversion and providing nothing major go's wrong it could all be on in as little as 3 weeks.

my major concern at the moment is the ecu i have as im not 100% sure what it is so ive got the number for a guy that can give me the awnsers i need i just have to find time to call him and im also not sure wheather i will need a high volume oil pump or not, ive been given a test to do once i get my oil lines on to see if the stock pump will flow enough.

I was told to run the oil feed hose into a cup and then start the engine for 15seconds and see how much oil came out and i told them what i was doing they seemed to think that it may flow too much oil for the turbo and that i may need to put a reducer in.

any oil feed line for a turbo has to have a restricter in. Any. Best to just grab the oil lines and splitters off a l20et setup. And for the oil pump. Either install the springs from a l20et pump into the l24 unit. and run the higher base pressure. Or order from nissan a L28et Automatic Oil pump. :D

chucked my car on the dyno at tafe the other day it made 75KW at the wheels not verry impressive but we also chucked the lectures modified 302 Windsor powered Fairlane on and everyone recons that my car was louder yay.

75 ATW!!!!!

mate thats cookin!!!

the dyno sheet will look fricken great when all the upgrades are done!

what have you sorted for the oil feed?

are you going to get a L20et oil pump?

and what have you got for a distributor???

i know someone who ran a stock dist. and the engine pinged its nuts off above 8 psi....

im thinking of having a 2 or 3 stage solenoid attached to the dist. (via an adjustable frequency switch) and as the boost goes up, the timing gets backed off, and as the boost comes down, the timing goes back to normal.... just an idea.

good to see my old parts being put to good use mate........

hope all goes well if you are after anything else i may or may not still have it i am still trying to sell the whole wreck i have

cheers guys

well i thought id never say this but its finally done my car is turbo yay i knocked it off in just one weekend with the the help of a few boyz from the r31club ive still got a few things i wanna do ova the next month or so e.g. cam, bigger exhaust, bigger front mount, and a bit of tuning but basicly ive been running 8psi and it dosnt ping at all i also found it will run with the N/A ecu and afm but not with the l20et throttle possition sensor i started off wid the l20et tps and the thing was hitting the rev limiter at 3000rpm and cutting the fuel after trying just about everything i decided to try the N/A tps and bingo thats what it was. Its going on the dyno this saturday just to suss out the air fuel ratio and fiddle wid the timing to hopefully allow a bit more boost.

I will get some pics up soon just got a few things to sort out and tidy up and then i will take some photos.

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
