There is high temp sheathing that will cover the line you run for the wastegate and from there you can always take the rubber hose (for length) down to your local hydraulic hose guy and get them to make one up. Even if they needs to use a reducign bush for the M5 conneciton

its going to be tight to find something that will fit in there.

I would take out the nipples and braze some brass tube onto them that is about 40mm long and then have a olive/sleeve collet fitting connecting to a braided line. that way you can screw the original fittings in place and leave them in place and screw the lines in situ.

hope this makes sense. just take the gate with the fittings to pirtek/enzed and tell them what you want to do ;) probably cost a bit but it will work and withstand 100's of degrees.

cheers!

Once I get the car back I dont think I will have any choice but take the gate off and see what Enzed and Pirtek can do.

Roy, Yea gate cap is billet.

I spoke to NYTSKY who has the same gate he said he just used normal silicon but I assume his gate is mounted a tad further away from the main heat source.

AD4M, Thanks for that any links to suppliers who stock it?

Quick Update - Found the oil leak.... Appears the oil filter isnt done up quite enough so when the car gets dropped off this arvo I'll fix that up, Then I just have to get a replacement CAS and see if that resolves the problem with it not running.

No real updates, been busy with work and other unexpected things.

I have over christmas installed a new Haltech ECU to replace the Adaptronic, I have just finished wiring up all the sensors etc and all that is remaining is to make a alloy bracket for the map sensor.

I also am trying to find a decent Catch can with -8 / -10 an fittings so I can plum in the breathers.

Once I find a some spare weekends I'll stick it on a trailer and take it to the dyno to start fresh with the tune.

Cheers

There is nothing decent readily available on the market, you will need to make one. -10 fittings are the way to go :D

I am looking to make something similar to what RIPS have done for their customers, fitting it where the battery tray is.

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
