Well Took it out for a quick spin at lunch today. Plugged in the ECU and everything started and ran perfectly! which is good news.

gave it a little bit up the main road and it has a bit more top end actually - infact in auto it shifts out of 2nd at 7,500rpm! pulled hard all the way and I was going over 120km at that stage so didnt want to keep the foot planted. It feels the same at low revs, mid range seems a little stronger (could be my imagination) but definitely pulls better up top and just keeps revving up to 7,500 - which is weird because the sticker on the ECU says 7,000 rpm.

Anyway I think I got a good bargain there!

Now its time for the high flow and dump so I can really make use of this ECU.

Good result Ben,, Sounds a lot like the Impul.

Got up close and personal with the new girl for the first time today.

After spending a heap of coin on stuff needed for a good hand wash at home I had mixed feelings, happy with how she sparkles but not so happy with the imperfections im finding on closer inspection - Kinda like some girls you get home from a night club, then see them under the proper light.....:O

Well after being busted and sitting in the garage for well over a month, I finally got the 260RS onto a car trailer and off to a mob that fixes gearboxes and diffs.

Entered some grass events in a local car show in November and she developed a knock in the front diff :rant: .

She will be fixed before the end of the month and be ready for SAU Putty road cruise!! :rofl: .

i would if it was between the 2 halves of the manifold but it looks like a real pain to get to

just want to know if its stock or not

also, i found where my leak is coming from, just need to work out how to get to it :-/

and i washed the beast :D

Edited by pipster11

another strange thing discovered on the stagea

~5-10mm spacer on the lower half of the manifold

anyone seen this on an rb25 before?

umm, that text that you have put the red box around says 'gasket'

yeah, and where there should be a gasket i have a 10mm thick piece of something

Probably a thermal barrier spacer, to keep your plenum nice and cool. :thumbsup:

I fitted one that Cam made under my plenum to space it up and fit the Deka injectors, 20mm of Bakelite does a very good job of insulating. The plenum is cold while driving now.

Back to back tested with a non cotact thermal gun, my plenum skin temp dropped from 82deg to around 50odd deg after I fitted the spacer.

It stops a huge amount of heatsoak from the engine, which has to add power, and the runner length increase definitely increases torque.:cheers:

i can't find any info about it on an rb25 tho which is odd

and the plenum is still hot because it still has the coolant lines running through the top half

and i'm concerned that its messing up the area into which the injectors fire

something along the lines of this, tom?

looks very similar to that but looks more like bakelite (sp?)

has a rough/textured surface

- New Oil

- Oil Filter

- Spark Plugs

- Brake upgrade to 370Z / G37's

- Front windows tinted to match the rear

Now... I just need to get around to doing a highflow / dump / ecu / injectors / front mount..... ehhh >_<

- Front windows tinted to match the rear

Looks sweet once it's done eh?

On topic, Just bought some r33 GTS calipers for my povo front brake upgrade :whistling: Wil be getting the rest of my bits thru Conceptz tho'.

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
