Hey Paul,

Looks real nice. Catch can is sweet in that position. I want to do the same as my ABS has been removed too. Is there plenty of room back there? Do you think it would work with a single high mount?

what numbers are you hoping to run at the quarter. I have the same plenum and throttle body coming to run with my TO4Z.

Cheers

Paul

Hi Paul, The catch can is another Hypertune item $220 plus freight, plenty of room there even with a single high mount and dump, yours being a R33 they may have to change the mounting brackets slightly.

The car was built to run 9's, high 9's. Anything more requires a lot of work to maintain (engine pull downs, gearbox overhauls etc). Im not saying this set-up will be set and forget, its just that I know how much maintenance (sp*) Mark and Theo do to their cars to keep them in the low 9's (and now high 8's) and i don't posses their time, facilities or budget.

Im in desperate need of some sponsorship $$ to keep this car competing, and without this im not willing to flog the car to death. Im just going to go out and have some fun and high 9's should keep me amused im sure.

Hi Paul,

cheers for the feed back, i have an R32 aswell so all should be good. Nice price on the catch can, does that include the lines and filter media? I'll have to flick Ben an e-mail and get one of these.

Good luck with you quarter goals sure is i nice setup. I hear ya on the time and money.

Nissan gearbox with OS gearset and an NPC twin plate clutch.

The difference between a mid 10 car and a high 9 car is a lot in $$ terms and development, thats why there is lots of 10 sec cars and hardly any 9's. Hope you aware of what you may be getting yourself into, and if so then i wish you all the best and good luck.

the above statement is made with the utmost sincerity.

the OS gearset gonna hold up alrite you think paul?

im very kind to the gearbox (granny shifter) and we redo the synchro's after 50 passes (trade secret to make the OS gearboxes last)

ye understandable totally, i guess realistically i wont see the 9s as i cant be bothered messing with suspension settings all the time trying to get it right etc worth a crack tho i guess, ill try a few times :) im gonna get jim to tune it once my engines in and run in, see how i go.

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
