the new just jap kit is bolt on.. my ass it is..

on the other hand the hybrid kit is easier.

Today Chris and i set to work on fitting a just jap FMIC to his 1993 R33 S1 which i can safely say is one of the best S1 ive seen!.

Just Jap $345 FMIC kit

HKS T piece

76mm hole saw

angle grinder

first off

removing the Front bar. due to having a few extra hidden clips took a bit longer than expected..

removing the SMIC and pipping.

removing the front support.

then getting stuck as he had no instructions.. so i went searching on sau and found nothing.. thanks..

decided to wing it :laugh: and dummy fitted the cooler core. mounted on the bottom brackets.

dummy fit the front support. cut to fit.. fit then removed to cut for top brackets.

fit. then removed to drill new bracket holes.. would be nice if they told us..

then refit. used spacers..

fit LHS pipping.

drilled 76mm hole with tools supplied by TAFE QLD :no:

drilled one more. i did use R33S2 diagram thanks mate.. helpful seeing i had no instructions.

fit pipping. tightened.

start up.. the top pipe touched the fan. so re adjusted properly..

start perfect :down:

sprayed cut body with antirust.

attempted to fit front bar.

hacked rear of bar.

indicators wer in the way so hacked that.then resealed it with duck tape properly not dodgy like shane would.

fitted to front bar.

splash guards on. inner guards on.

retensioned all bolts, clamps and brackets. fitted all clamps to face the same way. to look pro..

went for a test drive..

saw 14PSI.. then had to plumb in the intercooler line.. ther is no nipple so i cut the vac line from TB and inserted a HKS T piece (HKS POWAH AND SPORTS). hooked up to solenoid and boost is at 9ish PSI.

had to rebend the top pipe to suit, rethread a clamp.

chris is happy with his FMIC i got paid and the world is at piece.. and he scored a HKS part..

your more than welcome chris and i hope u enjoy your stay on this forum. if u need anymore work im happy to do some more. but no more custom cutting.. and ill charge by the hour.. due to extra cutting it took around 4 hours.. :ninja: wher as the hybrid took me 2-3??

some happy shots taken by chris

thanks chris and thanks sau

mark.

that took u 4 hours :huh:

i woulda looked at it, opened a beer, and said go elsewhere :)

as if im dodgy, says the man who uses bleed valves as a boost 'controller' :(

i still like manually controlling boost over electric.. something bout not having electronics that run on copper wires keeping ur car from hitting 45psi..

in addition to that, did u put rubber around the hole u cut for the cooler pipe?

ahaha NO shane i didnt.. want to knw why...? i cut a hole big enough to accomodate the cooler pipe with room to spare.. and left nothing touching anything..

i left 2mm gap from thermo to core, 3mm from rad fan without cutting it.. skills yo..

quite a fun day..

if u want ill build ur GTR for u.. ;) ...(the garden ornament)

Yep, I fitted my Hybrid FMIC Kit a couple weeks ago and was a piece of piss sept shaping the fan, i didnt expect that.

hey ryan

yeah i found the hybrid easier than the just jap.. the just jap which we used had too much bracket bending and no instructions.. but didnt need to shape and cut the fan as she clears it nicely.. 2-3mm.. only cause i did bend the top pipe mounting bracket to fit nicely. all in all looks professionaly done and keeps chris happy.. and looks stock too :)

put pics up of ur car chris.. how how its hidden nicely :(

What did you charge to install the FMIC Mark, I need my kit installed :D

he charged a very fair price.. i bought some of the tools and i was the lacky for the day ( did the easy side of the FMIC and helped where needed)

and yeah scored a fully sick HKS part...

Ill post some pics up of the baby once i have washed her.. shes pretty damn dirty atm.

But yeah id say it would be a solid 3-4 hour job ( take time off from us having a bit of a break and figuring out what to do etc)

It will hit.... I give you one week...

dont be like that..im sure it will be fine ;)

im keen to see how much extra powa i got now.. all i need is an exhuast system and the thing is breathing aftermarket style :D

It will hit.... I give you one week...

i doubt that. i fastened it with 10mm bracket and lock nut. and the clamps are super tight.

ok col if it doesnt touch within a week u shout me dinner one tuesday night lol.. :D

yeah i didnt charge much as thought it was similar to hybrid but wasnt. but not one to go back on my word so all good. PM me if u want to get one fitted.. ;)

im off to drags now in the R34.. ;)

  • 2 weeks later...

Gotta be careful bending those brackets that are welded to ally, I hope you held the bracket in a vice or something and bent after that.. whoever installed the fmic kit in my car didn't brace the bracket before bending and now the weld is starting to crack :wave: I have since unbolted the bracket in an attempt to slowdown the cracking O_o

    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
    • House of Fatz dry dock needs a clean sadly one of the long time stables is leaving this weekend   see ya mr purple
    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
