hey,

everything is pretty much sorted. cooler piping, tailshaft, gearbox mount, bonnet shutting, rad, etc.

But am just a little unsure on a couple of pretty simple things.

1. have had the plenum refaced, with the throttle body at the front now. However throttle cable doesn't reach. Can it be extended, or do i have to get say a bigger Vl, r32, r33, or other cable.

2. Am not running a bov, so can i just get the rubber hoses which go the bov blocked off at the plenum. The black metal piping which leads to the bov on the turbo side have been taken care of.

3. With the new cooler piping there no place to plug in the vacume line for the wastegate. Can i just extend the line and get the reading off any part of the plenum, or is getting it off the cooler piping on the turbo side essential.

4. for the boost gauge reading, does that just get it off the plenum also.

5. for the vacume lines which go to the throttle body, now that at its at the front, is just getting a bigger line ok, will it effect the throttle body opening, and operating the way it should.

6. whats the best way to drain the fuel tank?

any help much appreciated. i will post some pics as soon as i can get a hold of a digi camera.

thanks again

also run into another problem.

power steering setup. The silvia has some some speed sensative unit. and theres 4 lines coming off that, yet theres only 2 spots on the rack.

And putting in new lines mite not be viable cost wise at this stage.

Just wonderding whether i could take out the power steering lines, pump, put fluid in the power steering rack, so it doesn't run dry, and block off the outlets and inlets, so no fluid can go in or out.

only worry would be whether the rack will suffer, or turning will be come impossible.

Anyone know what the go is.

Is it safe to do? or should i run new lines, but then if i bypass the speed sensative unit, it could cause problems up at high speeds, pretty tight for room with this one. and i got lines going everywhere.

thoughts on this please.

oh and i got the tank drained, hooked up old fuel pump ran it off a battery and pumped the old fuel out through some hose. worked well.

GTiR throttle cable fits on R33 with front facing plenum. I have been told you can get the stock cable modified as well.

Two spots on the steering rack? why not use an R33 steering pump? I think the R32 have like a dual pump with two lines for the rear hicas, and two for the front steering. If your pump has 4 outlets, do 2 of them run from a seperate resevoir? Sorry I dont have much of an idea what is exactly wrong with the power steer - but interested to hear what the problem/solution and outcome are?

Cheers

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      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?
