holly crap chad

thats a heap of oil in the IC mate

i have heard of this happening a lot to track cars...

i guess catch can would be a good way to solve this problem...

how does oil get into the air intake system? my guess would be a leak in the turbo section...

-D

yes, but a correctly fitted catch can! I have a link somewhere here in the wasteland.

Chad, heres a pic of an RB25 that represents a decent track setup, open to atmosphere.

so my catch can has two hoses, both connected to each cam cover (replacing the U shaped pipe) so ill be blocking the positive crankcase ventilation valve (so the pcv valve isnt open off boost, sucking air through the catch can) and inlet to turbo from the cam cover.

Yay ... I get to pour more foundations this weekend for my house extension :) The extension is 9.7m x 10.6m, just to give you an idea of the steel frames being erected. Finished off the first frame (there are four) Wednesday night, and its dead straight and level. So glad my surveying skills work eh :)

Tonight I move the gazebo and clothes line. Tomorrow I bore the holes and erect another frame. Hope to have all the framing done this weekend. Roof up next weekend ;)

So thats the plan for the next week, including my mountains of TAFE work, homework and work work! :O

When there's quite a bit of blow-by.

If you're going to have an atmospheric catch can set up be sure to have a suitable baffle that can absorb oil well so as to minimise the amount of oil that will layer your engine bay.

you really like to erect things :)

My erections are so big, I need council approval before beginning ;)

they'll never approve it, your erection is more than 2 storeys high in a zoned residential area

with an erection that big you should have bought in an industrial zoned area

I can have an erection 2 storeys high in a residential area, so long as there are no overlooking issues, and I keep my erection setback from the boundary by at least 900mm. I must also maintain over 100m2 of open space in my back yard, so my erection doesn't get in the way of play space.

However, my erection may raise (no pun intended) overshadow issues with our eastern neighbour. He might not approve of my erection. So it will have Category 2 building approval for an erection of this size :wave:

suprised you didn't make a thread about it :P

I was going to. But it doesn't fall into the category of child birth, or jokes, or villis, or birthdays, or stereo installs, or holidays, or long weekends ... All my threads get closed nowdays anyway. :wave:

does your erection need to be at least 1km away from primary schools?

My erection is of a residential nature and the land is therefore correctly zoned to be erected within any proximity of a school (there are two schools less than 200m in either direction from my property). So my building erection is permitted near schools :wave:

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
