Oh yes I know this =) My engine was broken in october 2010... My car is in rebuild since that date... I hope I can finish the rebuild in the next few weeks. And than, sitting in the car, feel the rb26...oh, yeah I think I will forget all the months without the car and I will forget all the money I spent in the car^^

Haha not yet, just got back from sunny QLD.

Replaced the front drivers side diff seal and new diff oil yesterday so hopefully no more leak ;)

Car is up in the air ready for me to switch out clutch for the new one.

Thanks Brad! Yours will be a monster!!

Still have not done clutch...had to keep it on the road due to things popping up and arriving short notice :whistling:. Was worth it though!

The clutch is a Nismo gmax twin plate (Brett) , that I got second hand, cleaned, inspected and rebuilt with new clutch discs.

I'm currently half way through getting brembo bits to take the brakes back to something more streetable...

So, went to a workshop to borrow their hoist to do a clutch change....

End of the day car is still in the air...

First the new spigot bearing that was just fitted failed, spat out all it's needle rollers, so I had to pull that crap out then fit a bronze bush which I usually stick to.

The nismo twin I bought was actually from an R33GTR and won't work with a 34 due to different height, which I knew.

It was sold to me as a 34GTR clutch/flywheel and had 34GTR paint markered on it. Place is well known for jap spares and engines, and are usually on the ball.

So after a lot of cursing, I borrowed the courtesy car and went home to check my spare nismo gmax twin I got from flee bay. Wow it was a 34GTR clutch, and this one I can actually use as it is the right height.

So I will finish my install tomorrow....

they look good! was thinking of getting them for my R34 GTT but wasn't sure how they were fitted, looks like you screwed them in?

no way of them fitting like stock with the clips on the back.

    • 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! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
