Here's an updated photo of work in progress on my car.

The rear rims are 17x12 Panasport Racing rims with 300x640 Dunlop slicks on them and fronts are 17x10 Panasport Racing rims with 265x625 Dunlops. Flares are compliments of the local holden dealership. Im awaiting delivery from down south of two more rear flares which will then be blended into those already on the car to give a full flare all round the wheel-arch.

Chose them because they were cheap, the plastic is flexible and will take a knock without busting and they were a pretty decent fit. Still got to cut out the rear wheel arches and fill in the gap and then paint everything in go-fast pink.

That looks tops, will look fantastic when finished! 12 inch slicks is nuts!!

cheers russ

stumbled onto this site a few weeks ago, definitely something i'd love to build. would take one over a gtr ANY DAY OF THE WEEK!!!

someones been watching too much midnight wangan! :blink:

Nice vids Dumhead, jeez that S13 turns in.

you should see it with decent tyres!

It looks a lot better on the video than it felt in the car on the weekend, but it does turn in pretty nicely compared to most cars due to the lack of weight in the front :blink:

Here are a couple more videos of my car from the weekend:

A bit rainey:

Non rainey:

Both were a bit slow due to rather dead tyres, but it was fun :P

Looks like fun :unsure:

God I love the S series of Nissan's!

Looks quick in the wet! Though in the dry looks like it has a fair bit of push in the front end?!?!?!? Still damn quick little buzzard :P

Yeah lots of push happening thanks to the tyres and not yet optimal alignment. Hopefully I'll have that sorted soon :unsure:

I may end up being out of the country, but if I'm here I'll be there - if that makes any sense :P

God I love the S series of Nissan's!

Best cars ever!

hey gents,

car should be at QR inthe morning tomorrow!! for a bit of a shakedown, testing dry sump and breather setup, cooling system etc.

suspension hasnt turned up yet and needs to be retuned with new injectors and 4 inch side pipe that has been made for it!! :unsure: so that's for next visit.

then fit the new engine! ooh too much work not enough time,

export approval for the car is all done too!!

cheers russ

Nice one russ. fingers crossed for you tomorrow. surgery commences on my little 32 tomorrow. lots of changes. should be a whole heap quicker this coming few months. now if only I knew how to steer it!

Good luck with it, hope it goes well.

Wanna do us all a favour and take a video camera with you?? :D :D :D

Does this count? - I am about a month or so into making the chasis for my clubman...

I do conceed there is a little bit of work left to do, but it will be powered by a nissan at least - an sr20de, should do the job :D

Just buff it now and its done! What a project, Building your own from the ground up. More power to you mate. :P:(

Dont forget DumHedz, Novemeber Wakefield and Eastern Creek, i want to see you nibbling at teh rear wheels of some of the Vic GTRs :(

keep us nsw members updated also - I wanna head out there too! (back of the pack though :P )

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
