Thanks Johno,

recived mine this morning..

Shaun, may be a stupid question, but where does the crank key go? i havn't seen that while removing the stock balancer.

and what brand assembly lube did you buy and where from (i have checked the usual supercheap etc. they never seem to have anything more than grease)

Feedback left also :P

as for Kent, you will notice a keyway on your crank shaft, it goes in there.

it may have fallen out, but this is the locating device for the balancer

Ill post some pics for you to see where the key is. You should put the engine at top dead centre before you begin. When the engine is at TDC, the key will be facing up. Its important to check the key and replace if damaged. For only $2.20 its worth it.

In regards to the PS pump, im using a different model pump, so i had problems with the offset of the pulleys. I therefore, had to modify the PS pump bracket, which meant getting a machine guy to elongate the mounting holes in a mill. This way i could slide the bracket back and forth and get the correct offset. Its been going fine for ages now, so it does work.

The assembly grease is in the third picture. I had trouble finding it too, but eventually came across it at Repco. I was recommended to definately use Moly grease.

Thanks guys,

I checked today and the key is there, i didn't realise from the pic what it was, i didn't expect it to be so small :banana:

will check out repco now i know what it is called!

I had the wrong ATI pulley a while back as well. I have a vspec 32 so the shop sold me a R33 ATI because they though the crank is different to a standard 32.

I had to mill the power steering pulley a few times to get it right. Lost a couple of belts on the road and at the track :banana: There isn't any tensioner pulley on this belt so a small difference in the offset is all it take to throw the belt off. The GTR is heavy without power steering. Sorry we had to mill the pulley a few times so I don't know how much we took off in the end. It's very fiddly to get the offset right :D

Can you order the PS pulley only from ATI? What is the cost?

Yeah, its definately fiddly to get the offset correct. I just threw my first power steering belt yesterday; first problem ive had with that. I put a straight edge on the PS pulley and balancer, and found that it was slightly out, so i fixed it up, went for a long drive and it was ok. Its good being able to slide the whole pump and bracket assembly back and forth to get the offset right. As long as the straight edge contacts all four sides of both pulleys, it should be spot on.

Shaun.

Just wanted to confirm everyone got their balancers... If you didnt please let me know asap.

Cheers

ah... what exactly do these things do?? and are they only applicable to high kw/hp engines?

any chance of a second group buy, missed this one by a day, almost cried

thanks dan

ahh 33 s2 - With the Aussie $ the way it is.. It wouldn't be anywhere near as cheap as the first GB. If there is enough interest I would do another. If there isn't enough interest I have an Aussie supplier who can supply them pretty cheap & quickly PM me if you want to go that way.

SS8_Gohan - Not nessesarly for big HP applications, the ATI balancer is perfectly balanced and Eliminates torsional crankshaft vibrations.

SS8_Gohan, they balancer is a consumable item though (like a timing belt/fan belt/ idler bearings etc.)... i am pretty sure the nissan recommendation is to replace them around the 100k or 150k mark (can't remember exactly)

All that info is on the ATI site i think. Im pretty sure they recommend every 10 years for street use.

For those of you who have installed their balancers, what belt sizes have you used?

I emailed a few guys around the world before i bought my balancer (600 - 1000 HP) and they all said stock size belts. Now unless im missing something major the only one I can get on is a PK 4 980 on the AC.

anyone got a spare balancer for a r33 gtr. looking for the smaller under 500 HP. or does anyone know where to get one locally

cheers

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
