if it involves a pm it mustve been a fair whack.

got a clutch, now i need it fitted, recommendations/prices?

my mate shannon got his fitted by a local guy to me with a hoist in his shed, and there is also Just Jap @ jacobsen cress. they do excelent work great rates and i just had my water line replaced from the turbo with them :) from me

Thats cos you dont have a front diff sitting right under your oil filter, and you have skinny little arms :)

it would mostly be hard due to your fuel rail and plenum being right over the top

this is the cooler/relocation kit that i got (not using the relo kit cos i already have one).

HKS rip off, speedflow lines

$239

Question:

Braided lines are considered defectable by the police right? So what happens if you get Pirtek to do the lines. I'm sure their standards exceed AS and therefore meet ADRs if used on motor vehicles?

:)

Reuben, I passed Regency with my oil cooler installed with Speedflow lines and Earls fittings... they didn't have a problem so long as it's mounted correctly and the lines aren't tracing all over the engine bay (ie. nice and tidy)

I'm sure Pirtek would do the lines also :)

My turbo oil line is braided from Pirtek. The water line is stock.

My auto oil cooler line is braided from Davies Craig.

My brake lines are braided from Maltech.

^^ this work exceeds stock standards so I cant see how its possible to be classed ultimately as illegal modifications

thats the thing, Ive got a massive list of mods but could only count a couple that need to be engineered. doing that atm, pretty much.

nothing wrong with getting other braided line made up by Pirtek, the only one that they can't do are the brake lines and i'm pretty sure that if you ask them they will refuse to do it anyway. If you get another place to make up brake lines and they don't put the ADR sticker on them then they are illegal and you will fail an inspection.

Here's my oil feed line the Pirtek made up;

Hence why (as radical as it is) my bike is completely ADR approved.

As much as I've been tempted to remove certain stickers for show purposes (see below), I haven't or else they are no longer approved brake lines.........they could then be anything!

Don't suppose anyone's got banjo bolts for the front R33 calipers lying around, or know where I can get them (most wreckers prob won't part with them)?

Wanna fit the 4 pot calipers and ditch the 2 pot ones.

:D

try Steve at Nisswreck or Pete Hall at Jap Motorsport Roo

Thanks Pete. Was going to drop in to Nisswreck on Saturday if I have no luck with the brake mob on The Parade today. While I'm out there, I'll swing past JMS. Going to lunch shortly to do all that. :D

so ive found out that my engine in my car is from an R32 GTR V-Spec and was purchased from Autotech of all places , and had 80,000kms on it at time of being swapped into my car which in actual fact means its done over 100,000kms , never been serviced and had the speedo in the half cut wound back.

lol. yeah i heard about it around then LOL gotta love corporate email... im glad that news of important things sweeps adelaide quickly

As someone who moved here from interstate, it constantly surprises me how tiny Adelaide is - especially with stuff like this. You find out that your neighbour knows a guy you work with, or that some guy you met on the internet knows a friend of yours, or ... the list goes on .. It boggles the mind :P

Nene has some serious real estate. :P

A project I'm working on at the moment, and I found this:

"Nene Valley". Not far from "Blackfellows Caves"! :P

Ah ... back to work.

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
