You need to make sure you retain the one way valve on the PCV. (on the side of the rocker cover). You can change the top two oil breather hoses without any dramas. I had threads welded on however you can get the Earls finishers if you are only after the hose end look.

Where do you put the fuse box when you hide the wiring?

Also, what do you do with the metal brake lines coming from the ABS; do you get them powder coated or something, or do you just leave them with that wierd green coating on them.

Im gonna seriously tidy up my engine bay next year.

there are two choices for the fuse box (depends on the budget of the customer)

1. in the guard (under where the battery would normally sit)

2. inside the car

this car doesn't have ABS

but with brake lines we can make complete new ones from pipe or braided hose

also the stock ones can be chromed or painted or what ever the customer wants

Here's my RB25 in a torana engine bay. I was thinking about getting the cam covers painted the same colour as the car, but it may look gay...dunno yet. What do you guys think?

It's funny how there seems to be more room in here than a skyline engine bay, but once you get near the chassis rails it's very tight..

Its gets done with other cars. So I dont see why not. Most Likely Wont come up as good.

Just Use Liberal Amounts of Towel and masking tape and a small spray gun like one with a 200ml pot or smaller to get it in to all the small places.

that looks really good. I would just go black on the cam covers though. Engine bay paint looks really well done. Who did it.

If your taling about my car, It was painted by a local painter in woonona. The colour itself is the secret. Kinda glows in the right light. You should see this colour near snow... :P

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
