Pineapple thing, anyone Do-It-Themself??


Recommended Posts

Silvia forums :

they reduce axle tramp, and sit above the diff cradle. "a must for the hardcore drifter..."

Yeah like they said, also they can be set for better traction, got it off this guy on Silvia Forum, i asked him if the instruction came with it and he told me yes.

Yeah it did come with it but ALL WRITTEN IN JAPS.

When Jet went to calda the first time, he noticed heaps of axle bounce on his launch, but after he got em put in, NONE, or very little, i would reccomend doing it yourself either coz they could really fck up hardcore and your wheels might fall off

/me looks at Chop

hahahaa

prolly not fall off but might do a fair bit o damage to your suspension

i have to get another set now seeing as i sold mine a wile back... Dr_Drift had some installation guides for em... if u want email me and i will email u the install instructions

Thanks Narky, you want another set? This guy on Silvia forum sell them for $70 or $80 something a set, i reckon that's pretty cheap.

Ah also i got the catch can from Adel, the one that cost $130 on our forum, so excited, can't wait to get my hands dirty.

West - i didn't notice much difference on my car.. slightly improved that i could feel but not massive improvements like some claim. I think it can vary depending on what suspension setup you have too.

How they're installed is also important as you can do them for different setting ssuch as straight line, drifting or somewhere inbetween. Ice perf. installed mine

here i thought rather than email them i would put it up here for everyone to see... care of the great man himself Dr_Drift... crap its too large... oh well wiull just upload it to HERE:

100? man u can get it done for like 50 at a suspension place... they charge like $70 an hour and it should only take about half an hour... they put it on the hoist... undo it all... instead of cutting em like in Dr_Drifts instructions too.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
