I see you are considering going the way of the Gordo........

nah I'm not jumping the fence

:(

oh you mean the engine.... yeah if I am rebuilding an engine, seems like a fun project.

I will probably change my mind twenty times before then though

word of advice though, get your cooling system checked out before the summer heat really hits hard.

I'm really used to my engine running right at the bottom of the temp gauge so when it starts going up on those 40 degree days I really start to fret.

I know exactly how fast the engine temp will go through the roof. as I had a dodgy cooling system in my old silvia. So not cool. :(

You Mensa people have the weirdest idea of fun ever. :)

:werd:

but like all Mensa people it will end up in the "unfinished project basket"

once you have worked out exactly how it will work, it will no longer hold any interest and then it is time to move on to the next project :(

like you, the only part of a project that holds any interest for me is the 1% inspiration part. The 99% perspiration bit is for chumps.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
