just dropped the r30 at the elicticans, would you believe it the only other car there was this stunning all black r32 gts-t running an rb25det, sweet looking beast, front and rear gaurds were flared or made to look like a gtr. Phat.

on the topic now, hope to get the car back soon with all the things fixed, lights, tacho, boost gauge all these thing were not finished as i had to take the car to get the suspention finished as they needed the car to run to do the work. also by the time its finished the parts from gus should be here so thats one more thing out of the way!

Hows it going guys, just thought i'd let you know how my rb25 conversion was going. well the old engine came out pretty easy. Now im just searching for an R31 xmbr, mounts and brackets to bolt the RB25 too. everything else isnt going to bad, clutch master cylinder was simple bolt off bolt on. However with brake booster, you have to drill out the firewall a little to get the new one to fit. no biggy. other than that im now just trying to track down some magna discs and calipers because apparently they bolt up to skylines quite nicely (only r32's and onwards though). we'll see about that though.

yeah we've lost about 3 pages of info, alot of good stuff, trying to think of where the oil would come from, have you looked underneath for any oil spray, as the only thing i can think of is the gear box as thats the only thing with oil in that area?

I just bought a turbo R30 ES and it's really sweet man!! I was looking into upgrading it a bit and was wondering what i can do that is practical and affordable tuning. It's got a GT-R exhaust on it already and a bit of CAM work but it is only runing standard boost and i want it to be around 200-250 horses. Any ideas? :D

Chu-rulz- firstly, are you going to stay with the l24e or look for something more eventful. if its anything to you, i have a ti hatch, now there not a bad place to start, they are not that power producing unless you spent big dollars. but if you want to start start with plugs, leads and filter, use a good fuel system cleaner every few tanks, then its exhaust, a custom set of tuned extractors will always help, get rid of the final muffler something a bit more sports like 2.25/2.5 inch system, theres a good start or just put in an rb20det and not look back!!

r30-turbo- i guess you are running the l20et engine? the only other things i can come up with would be maybe a bottom end swap for the l24e then big turbo, ecu chipping or swap?? for that power may cost big dollars as i mentioned to chu-rulz, a mate has a pual newman version with the l20et and is running 22psi with no intercooler and is getting around 200hp at the flywheel, the paul newman version is a slightly higher rated engine though,

rsx84- i am looking at sticking with the l24e at the moment until i got the dough for a bigger engine. it already has a huge custom tip on the exhaust. i am about to do the plugs and leads, i also want to modify the air filter but i dont know how... also where would i get extractors from?? btw im in newcastle, nsw

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
