In two weeks i will be dropping out my engine to do a few things!

I have trust dump's/front to go on

Timing belt

radiator hoses

going to try remove hicas shit beside the engine

few oil leaks to fix

front cv boots

general oil changes also

few gauge sensors to go in also

what else would be ideal to do while its all out??

now i only have the actual dumps and no bolts etc. what else would be an idea to get while i am doing them?

i'm going to drop the whole motor and gearbox out, as i see thats an easy way to do it. any other ideas? as i have access to a hoist and i'm going to be doing all this with my mate. over a 3 day long weekend!

i have a 32 gtr with a 34gtr getrag box in it.

Cheers

Andrew

ull find a few vacum lines being all hard.. change whats distorted...

u wont need to change ur tuirbo dump bolts.. not mandatory.. but should if u want.. change ur turbos to something steel wheel if u have $$$

and get a Tbelt kit and not just a tbe;lt. as the pulleys get noisey too..

also exhast gaskets...

i did mine a while ago. taking the engine out seems like more effort but uve got a few other things to do too.

good luck with it.

while you got the sump off clean all the sludge out of it. Years and years of old oil turns into a gluggy goo...can block pick up and cause all sorts of problems you dont want to deal with. while sump is off pull pressure relief valve (one bolt) out of bottom of oil pump and clean. if that gets stuck, no oil pressure.

its a pretty fresh motor, built before i bought the car over from japan. but i will be checking out whats been done in the sump.

around 500hp i'm aiming for with the dumps installed :( so there is a good set of puffers on there already!

i thought lastnite about it also.

fuel filter is on the list now!

but thanks guys you've added a few more :D

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • 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.
