Hope its running a stroker kit and throw a set of R32 GTS4 diff gears at it; she will need it. :P

I came across a bloke that makes 4wd adaptors for the LS1 block to suit Patrols as well as gearbox adaptors.

Surely it wouldn't be too hard to rig something up for a light LS1 in to an R32 GTR. Strap on a turbo or two; now that would be fun. :)

plains for the car are maddat roll cage, origin body kit then giv it a lick of orange paint

the next part will be to get the motor together which will been build by TURBOTUNE, which will be a redtop sr20det with tomei camshafts, tomei cam gears, scat rods, arai pistons, a trust L2 turbo kit.

hopfully were able to get the motor in with out to much touble but will post up pics of the build as we go

please keep this thread clean an postive

interesting choice, why?

well first i was gonna b using a ke70 shell but i just couldnt find one cheap enough an clean enough an yeh came accross this shell an it was a bargin an thought it would b somthin different an catch a few eyes when its done

haha thats fair enough then... will be keeping an eye on this.

yes im curious, why not used a tried and true motor instead of smaller displacement and less turbo's?

sr20's can make a fair whack of power too, just setup differently i guess. still an rb25/26/30 will give you a much better kick down low where you will need it for hillclimb especially.

at least youll be taking a bit of weight off up front :P

Shouldn't be to hard a car to build, its been done plenty of times before, I've got a mate putting a SR in his ceffy. keen to see it in action.

Do you own the Hilux with TONKA on the plates?

thats alot of weight for a sr to pull, interesting none the less

actually if he chucks in the RWD front cradle and does away with transfer case it will weigh less than a standard R32 RWD car

GTR's are only heavier due to transfer case and extra front shafts CV joints and all the bits and pieces to make em AWD

    • 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
