Hello folks,

Just thought I would post up some pics of the ceffy sitting in my mates back yard with the rims of my silvia (which is still for sale BTW only 8k!).

Also fitted my beloved Zeta from my original ceffy, and RX7, and silvia, and now the new car :P

Stretched tires and camber to come for the rears to try and squeeze them under the guards...

Enjoy.

Im going to have to disagree with you bro. I did the whole body to suit the wheels haha :P

But you know, what do I know, I just brought a brand new HSV GTS :laugh:

JK

Oh I hate you soooo much :thanks: They are hella sexy.

I think that if the enkei's were a better offset they would have suited better. I planned to get BeeR rims but seems they don't make them anymore :S

R32's and Ceffi's share the same chassis yes?

they're about as similar as apples and oranges. totally different chassis. you'll never get a ceffy cage into an R32 sedan (ceffy's interior is much larger)... unless you chop chop, which kinda defeats the purpose of a cage.

Yeh they are fairly different. R32 cage should be easy to find through importers. I am going to keep the back seat but have to trim the seat a bit on the side.

In other news I had it dynoed yesterday and made 192kw @ 13psi with safe A/F so Drift Attack here I come :D

Done injectors or FPR yet?

Hope you still have my sexy Fuel Pump wiring in the boot :rolleyes:

JK

Hahaha not at the moment. I am going to do Injectors, AFM and remap at the same time and up the boost.

ROFL at the sexy fuel pump wiring! Drove it around yesterday...crossed a train line, BA BOW...car rolls to a stop, Ryan proceeds to swear at the fuel pump wiring. Had to get out and fix it in the rain.

What was the idea behind the wiring?

Fuel Pump Wiring - I had an issue where the ground signal from the ECU to the Fuel Pump Relay wasnt happening, so I use to ground the Relay to the chassis manually, ie DIY immobilizer haha (note spade connector swinging from the lock)

Then I eventually redid the wiring and ran a new speaker wire from the ECU to the boot (wire crushed somewhere obviously) and that was fine, and then I decided to run power straight from the Battery to the boot. After doing that the 040 sounded alot healthier in the tank, and the car ran nicer LOL. It had a wild flat spot and it dissapeared with more voltage in the pump.

Any other quirks you want to know about haha?

Haha yes a few things:

1. What is the reason behind the switch under the dash that seems to be connected to the EBC?

2. Why was the trim piece for the rear of interior roof lining removed?

3. Who fitted the cage?

4. What was the reason for swapping the position of the AC controls with the HKS gauges?

5. Did you ever notice that there is only one gauge adapter on the oil cooler sandwich plate? What the heck!

6. Did the car have front indicators when sold by you?

7. What kind of oil did you run it on?

I think thats all off the top of my head. Got new tires all round for Drift Attack and changed the oil with some nice Syn 5...does excellent skids :thumbsup:

1. I never had an EBC ... so I dont know! Chris's handywork

2. Im not sure where it went. Possibly lost it when I gutted the interior to take the sunroof out for the repair of the sunroof

3. I brought a full cage for it but never fully bolted it in properly. Chris's handywork?

4. So that you could see the guages more easily without having to tilt your head right down to see them.

5. No there is 2, one has a bung in it. I put it in too tight and couldnt ever get it out again, hence why i had oil temp going to the sump plug as my guage sender was too big to fit into the sandwich plate

6. Yes it had front indicators, they were clear too!

7. Mobil S 10w30 i think.

Hows the diff holding up? Best free gift that came with that car :P

PS sorry for the late reply - i dont peruse these forums much anymore since Im in the outter with my 09 HSV GTS Twin Turbo :D

Thanks man :)

I demand more information on your new car :down: It is still a 4 door hahaha

Update for those that care:

Cleared the RWC yesterday and going in for rego inspection on Tuesday. I'm the most excited I have been in a long time! Can't wait to be able to drive on the street again without a permit :)

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      By CRSKmD · Posted

      yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
