Just received a second hand EBC from another member of the forum,now where do i get the mistycal hole to pass the firewall? +where do i get a shorter route to get pressure sensing?(at the moment is from the nipple at the back of the plenum,going forward next to the bat getting inside the mudgard and into the dash)

in the back corner next to the brake booster you will see a couple of cables coming off some relay/control boxes (one is a brown/yellow). follow where those cables go right down into that back corner. run the line through that hole with those cables. then do as Hugh said, pull the wheel arch lining off and you should see the line you just poked through. you will also see a large grommet on the fire wall you can then get you line through into the cabin.

coathanger + tape

find the grommit inside the cabin (drivers side above to right of the throttle pedal) and poke the coathanger through the grommit and up into the engine bay. You will eventually see the end of the coathanger and then it is a simple case of taping vaccum line and pulling it back through the grommit.

You should be able to do it without removing anything from the car.

My boost gauge is connected through the big gromet behind the drivers side panel but,as i said is coming all the way from the front (under the wiper bottle)so it's a very long run...

BTW where did anybody connect the source of boost ,from the pipe that goes to the inter cooler or the second connection that I dont know how to describe it(last pic)

Have a look inside the foot well of the drivers side with a torch and look for some grommets, you do not need to run it along with the loom.... hell long way

I know...my boost gauge must have about ten minutes delay...

Found in one of the pics.I have from a rb25 neo that the last pic.could be the outlet of the turbo(yes???)

Forgot to thank,everybody that advise me about this mod install...after more than 10 days of using it ,I can say the HDI SBC-D is a very nice working EBC boost pick up very fast (now I can feel the car pulling at 10 psi) :(

Found that the grommet under the driver's kick panel can acomodate all the connections (solenoid cable + pressure hose)and it open at the hole in the panel after the firewall),used the IGN + from the turbo timer...

And that's how it looks, used the factory hoses, again THANKS.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
