ok

re-designed the heater hose system on my rb26.

Not keen on running the turbo coolant line around the back of the head. Personal preference.

This is what I came up with.

Will it work ?

See any problems ?

Any suggestions ?

Can post up what it looked like orginally later tonight but keen to hear from guru's that already know the rb26 heater / water system.

Also please excuse the shitty paintshop pic .... drawing not my thing.

Your diagram is a little too ghetto for me to even understand :P

Is it birds eye view? I spent a fair amount of time thinking about lines and what not, but still cant figure out your drawing, sorry man.

Edited by GeeTR

lol ghetto and I was going for more a punk style.

Its a birds eye view from the underneath which probably doesn't help things.

The right hand side is the front off the motor, the left the rear obvious.

The top section is the plenum side, underneath mostly or if the plenum wasn't there.

One thing to note the AAC / cold start valve has been removed from this system,. might be why it looks so foreign.

How is it I post a thread asking for help and end up just giving information away without anything back ???

Yes its messy, it is a mock up :)

Good Christ, your missing the ACC and distribution block thingo.

Yep I took it off :D

I think I give up with the help, cheers anyhow.

Can the mods delete or lock this thread ???? or can I do it ??

butters your drawing is quite easy to follow mate...if you know what your looking at and talking about.

the feed off the block (front and rear) can be ran under the engine and up to the heater core...the only problem i can see is the right angle bend through the firewall. As for the coolant feed around the back of engine, just block it off tee feeds together and run to the front.

I thought so but I drew it so made sense to me ... lol

Thats a good idea, Hadn't thought about that. Was stuck in the follow stock mode there.

That will make it a lot easier, cheers for that.

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
