The answer to all your questions there are, no idea :(

I will be pulling it out when i put the new turbo, and ecu in...so 1-2 months time. As for cost, no idea how much they go for, plus i may hang on to it for regency issues. Power wise...Krishy i think is still using a stock series 1 afm, so about 220rwkw, maybe a bit more.

very very nice power figure Dave specially when its untuned.....R33 AFM's are good for about 250rwkw's and that would be most likely maxing them out at that point....i am going to get the car tuned with the stock AFM and see how much we can squeeze out of it before swaping to a Z32....i am only making 211 atm.....Saturday should tell :(

can someone help me out ?

i bought an engine off this forum which was apparently working etc etc and had been pulled apart and put back together professionally but after putting it in the car and

being compression tested it has low compression (waiting on exact figures).

the guy i got it off said that when i picked it up it had a timing belt on it and the timing was set to tdc but ive come to find that it was missing idler and tensioner pulleys , not to mention

it was also missing oil seals around the back of the cam pulleys and its missing bolts off the intake manifold.

it also had heaps of missing coolant lines...

what can i do ?

ask for my money back ?

ask him to pay for repairs ?

shit mitch your situation is getting worse day by day mate.....well you can give the seller the 2 options and see what he says in regards to it....goodluck with it mate....just cant wait to see your ride back on the road

you and me both man !

so over this crap

but i got some good news this morning

got accepted into tafe to study Cert II in Automotive Mechanical , starting jan next year :)

makes me think about my power figures....when i first got my car tuned..it still had its n/a fuel pump and reg...but had a early darkhalf rechipped ecu (before realtime) and rb20 redtop nics injectors...it pulled 175.4kw at the treads..but leaning out big time in the top end....this latest tune it had a bosch 040 pump and a vlt reg...but only pulled 150.....my first tune it was still using the same AFM as when the car was on lpg n/a and had it blown apart a few times.....i dont get it....when it was first tuned....it had the same fuel filter and plugs from over a year previously....me dont know...me too little

Dave, get in touch with luke

he still has his GTR pump, and glenn has a Z32 that he'll no longer need, solves both problems then

Correct, got a nice GTR fuel pump sitting here with your name on it. And Glenda has a Z32, problem solvered

messing around with the valve timing without knowing what you're doing can definitely have an effect on compression.......very easy to dial in and dial out compression by varying the valve timing slightly.

Might be running like crap though but if it's not running yet, be careful of any valve to piston contact

you can ask for anything but your chances of getting it are minimal since it was a private sale so it's a case of buyer beware. that's why buying engine off wreckers will cost you more because they generally come with a start up warranty, so in this case you would have been covered.

I'm still waiting for you to clear the air about your claims about TT. you read the post that SLED made and yet you didn;t see fit to reply.

SCANDY;

S1 R33 and R32 AFM will support around the 210-220rwkw, but the SII R33 (pink sticker, 3 wire plug) will support around the 235rwkw mark. i wouldn't pay more than $100 with the plug for one. I paid $55+20 for the plug for mine and if you look around you can still find them for that price.

how far down south do you live Daniel and how soon do you need it on the road?

Me or Matty could tow it up for you possibly.

if i had a winch on my trailer we'd be right..........but i dont :) and i dont hav my winch on the car yet (or a front towbar point for that fact)

nice. how much? :)

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • 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
