All it takes is a bit of practice, and I've had too much practice :laughing-smiley-014:

I think I did it about roll 2, so it should be fine. Was the last time I did it, and that one ended up on the roof as well.

Our first outting with the Dry sump was today. Oran park south circuit

Absolute success. Few minor dramas like the just jap silicon piping spliting and restricting it to 8psi, and rear brake issues but other wise it managed a 50.2 with stuff all power (sub 250Kw id assume)

Time to pull it all apart and switch shells now!

i was at OP on Sat arvo/night, went and watched Niel in the Radicall, looked like heaps of fun. Also met Duncan so good to be able to put faces to names. Was surprised at the mix of cars that were there. Street cars to race cars. NO SKYLINES. was a RB powered silvia that was quick. Did you go on Sunday?

yeah good to meet you too Stuart. now get your car finished and out there so there is at least 1 skyline around :P

we got the rear cradle back from John on the weekend, we now have a very adjustable rear end. still need to fit the hicas replacement arms to it then it is ready to go in with all the colourful chinese bits bolted on. Glad we bought most of the bits before the $AUD crashed.

but it was too bloody hot to do much on sunday.

Brad you better get a wriggle on, Neil dragged his radical around there in 48.18 on saturday

Duncan,

I think I'll clean up the original crush tubes and weld them to the top and bottom plates that I was going to make up to replace the cradle bushes. This will eliminate the need to add a bush to the bottom when bolting it in and make sure that the holes are exactly the right size.

Only problem is that I'm going to have to root around in the bin to find them. Sometimes I get the good ideas way too late.

I too was surprised at the mix of cars but yes it was a very hot day. Their was a nice clean red r32 gtr there in the arvo when I was out watching Neil but I did't get any laptimes from it.

well the good news is I never got around to putting them in the bin, they were sitting next to it cooling down after their roasting.....

You didn't, but I did. Thank god the kids aren't in nappies any more.

Oh I know that silvia all too well.

I have to see it pretty every day at work.

Ha ha your a funny guy mark,,,I'll bet you don't chew your fingernails anymore either.

Young Brad,,,Duncan's correct,,,but a wriggle on won't cut it. I consider my 48.18 as slow,,,i'm really chasing a 46.

Neil.

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
