Engine bay pics? or pics of the car? Outside looks pretty much like any skyline, except blue badges and for the R34 different factory front bar.

I made a start on modifying the engine cover to fit, still needs more work trimming and smoothing, but still looks far better than ntohing at all! The DE NEO's are pretty ugly underneath it all. Had to make a custom bracket though, which is something temporary at the moment made up from leftover FMIC kit brackets and a combination of bolts and nuts which worked out quite well considering :) The heatshield is something I cut up from the ACL heatshield material, and has made a significant difference! Intake pipe and silicon bend is no longer scorching hot after a drive, but rather just warm. seems to be sustaining power for longer before heatsoak becomes an issue :P Eventually I'll do a few more things to make the engine bay look a bit nicer/neater.

Well I'm only running 7PSI, but compared to N/A it's good to have some decent power! Holding up well, been 5 months now since the conversion.

Here's a few shots I took tonight in high sensitivity mode on my cybershot.. not the clearest photos but I like slow shutter without flash :(

Thanks :happy: It's getting there, work in progress. Dan's conversion has to be one of the neatest I've seen actually, but he didn't have FMIC piping going over the radiator. FMIC piping over the radiator already looks messy IMO.

Only around 160rwkw at the moment but that's on 7PSI and with an auto transmission. That particular Dyno has been known to report around 10kw under, and sometimes up to 20kw in some cases, but power figures are only numbers, what matters is the driveability and reliability of that power figure. It's easy to make more power really, all whats needed is more boost, but everything one step at a time. Trying to make more use out of power already there at the moment, which is why I've started with the heatshield, airbox, and next up a cold air feed. Once I'm satisfied with the keeping temps down side of things, then I'll look at either stage 2 shift kit and autotrans service complete with transmission fluid cooler (try to eliminate flaring, speed up the shifts and get the existing power to the wheels more efficiently and without overheating the gearbox); or an EBC. My tuner reckons that my R33 turbo is good for up to 12PSI, though I'm not sure if I'd run it that high as yet, not with a used R33 turbo. But 12PSI with an EBC should see it making some sweeet power, which admittedly I am craving for lol

I have been drifting my r32 rb25de+t for the past 2 years, prior to the conversion i rebuilt the engine and fitted a 1.8mm cometic headgasket, lowering the compression ratio just enough.

After a decent run in period i bolted up the Garret 3071R and external gate and after going through 3 rb20 boxes it fitted a rb25 box and a once piece tailshaft.

But she's good for up to 400hp running just 1 bar of boost... rb25de+t engine all the way man. :happy:

Theres a thread here of the conversion in progress.

Finished product here on tunersine article.

Very nice Tiff! Loving that R32! Done an awesome job with it, well done!

Just so you know, we have a thread just for N/A+t power results, would love to see the results there! Good to see another N/A+t conversion that's come out good :happy:

210RWKW off 9.5PSI, RB25DE+T, FMIC, 3" exhuast stock 33 ecu & injectors, highflow T3.

2500rpm full boost. Because of the high compression, it makes more power per PSI boost, so 210rwkw with no R&R (used to R&R after 10PSI though)

Next thing I'm hoping to add on is something along the lines of a TD06-20g or possibly something like a 3076r... will have to forge as well to turn up boost anymore, for piece of mind...

Great to see more and more de+t's!

I decided to get a handwash and polish done today at the Carwash Cafe place in Mt Gravatt. Just wanted to get it looking nice for the charity cruise tomorrow.

So here I go whoring this thread again :( Same location, same method.

(ps. I really need to get out and take photos before it's completely dark lol)

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
