Hey

I am after a different spring for the older style HKS external gates

Looking for something around 14psi - Just wondering if anyone knows where I can get one from, or a part number or something similar for the one I need

Can I use a spring from a differnt brand of external gate?

Are they all the same/similar?

Something around Melbourne preferred - Will swap for my 0.7 bar (10 psi) spring if anyone wants

I have also attached pictures of the HKS external gate I am referring too

:P

TiAL 44mm

10psi spring

Width - 106mm

Wire Width - 4.8mm

5psi Spring

Height - 475mm

Width - 35mm

Wire Width - 3.75mm

PS: Too tired to test bind height, but it cold be guesstimated i assume.

If more users posted various gate's and springs, you could find something your after.

I need to know where I can get these springs from

Anyplace that sells a particular gate, should sell the manufactures extra springs as well, be it here or the US / Japan.

Would TiAL and HKS wastegate springs be similar, would they be interchangeable?

No idea, but they wont if they're not the correct size. They could not seat on the actuator top or hat center, or even bind on each other (if running two springs)

But those of similar dimensions (inc the gates actuator internal dimensions) will be ok.

i think you need a new ruler.....

I think your right - was tired. Id assume its 60mm, ill check again and edit in the morning

:P

EDIT: course you cant EDIT posts over a few hours old on SAU, which is teh ghey.

Those X and Y figures need a decimal place between last and second last digit obviously ;)

    • I was using the wiring diagram I have So 12.74V is coming into the rear Fuel Pump relay as I measured.  When I turn the key to ON im getting 0.6V to the Fuel Pump plug; which i assume is backfeed voltage and doesnt include the 12V from ignition power.  The rear relay is working and being triggered.  From the diagram I clearly see the rear relay 80 = Rear Relay going into the Body/H loom (R-27) 27 = Fuel Pump plug going into the Body/H loom (T-20) 40 = Short Connector (R-27) I'm reading 12.74V on the blue/black wire which is the power for the Fuel Pump   From this diagram I can see the Ignition relay goes into the front and up to the ignition  2 = Fuel Pump Relay <1M> (R-27) 37 = ING Relay <1M> I started from the pump using this reference Which the way I read it (referencing Nissan wiring color codes) is: Pin Wire Color Function 1 B/P (Black/Pink) Ground 2 L/W (Blue/White)        ECU Trigger 3 SB (Sky Blue) Fuel Pump 5 L/B (Blue/Black) 12V Constant Tested SB to SB on Fuel Pump for continuity - confirmed Tested negative on Fuel Pump to 12V battery and L/B - confirmed 12V Pulled the relay putting 12V between Pin 1 & 2 and testing continuity on Pin 3 & 4 - confirmed relay   So that has me looking at this part of the circuit to understand whats happening here...and im still confused. From best I can tell; the disconnect is back to my previous diagram; between Ignition Relay and Fuel Pump Relay...which yet again; afaik is where the immobiliser should.    Thats what I was trying to explain to GTSboy; im not trying to fix it myself; yet I seem to have to get a Masters in Electrical Engineering (while im busy doing my actual job of DevOps & Cloud Engineering) somehow.  I just wanted more expert opinions; or more so that what I tested is correct and proves it to something around that area; to go back to the alarm tech (for a 3rd time) that he needs to fix it. He keeps telling me its not the alarm. He lives on the complete other side of the city so i understand not wanting to make a trip but as I said before if its the alarm it should be up to him to fix it. But he's adament its not; even though I pointed out the FP was immobilised through the original alarm. To my mind; it seems that the ECU is sending the signal; but the ignition is not getting 12V down the line.       
    • Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.
    • I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?
    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'
