Need to do Turbo, FMIC, Coilovers, A/C compressor, Seats and Steering Wheel. I know its not that much really but we're talking about me here. Oh and also RB26 Injectors - I believe it already has an upgraded pump, but if not, that too.

i have a case of CC's n dry....very nice taste

So who is going to help me now????

cc dry... you just became my new (temporary) best friend.

lol. ill give you both a hand with all that.

yay i has a temp new friend :P

I will go and see andrew at am on friday and get him to make the intake and dump pipe and that way once they are made we can start on it straight away.....roughly how long will it take Dave to slap it all in????

dunno. depends how many cc dry's ive had and how awkward the rb is to work on. should be about a couple days (i like leaving a margin of error). now takes me about 90 minutes to do a turbo on the sr.

question, rb uses locking tabs on the turbo studs, yeah? if so, f**k them off and buy some prevailing torque nuts, theyre a slight pain in the ass, but i doubt they'll f**k out as quick as the lock tabs.

lol i have no idea what you speak off there Dave.....

lol. find out when we pull your turbo off i spose. but add maybe $10 for half a dozen prevailing torque nuts.

when you wanna do it?

When andrew has finished making the intake and dump pipe....will take the turbo to him on friday

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
