Take your word for that info Cam. There wasn't a great deal of info on the listing. Is that info straight from mines?

You probably already know but I left the wiring diagram books with Aaron for you to collect and borrow.

Yes, straight from Mine's, via alot of back and forth with Jesse (sorry Jesse :)).

Thanks for the diagrams, hope to get them from Aaron soon.

in my car. if scotts not working tonight ill drop em at his.

i doubt it, if it detects connection while the brake is applied theres not point in having it.its best and easiest to have a momentary switch

I was thinking for the guys(me included) that aren't worried about stalling the car up, this might work. This way it would connect/reset when brake applied then disconnect when brakes released and throttle limit deactivated and away you go. Or am I missing something? I'm a little new to electrics/wiring.

lol your missing something.

This also restricts throttle a few moments after braking, so if you come out of a corner, and want to give it a little squirt, it will be the same as stock.. which kind of defeats the purpose.

its not so much the knowledge of electronics.. this ecu is just fkn smart!

but who would go through the trouble of that? lol if commsman doesnt, i dont think anyone will.

Haha, I think you are confusing me with someone who is genuinely SMART lol. But you're right, even if I knew how to build circuits that took all these inputs into consideration, I still wouldn't bother when a switch is so simple & effective.

It would be a different story if the fault code was thrown after 30 minutes or 15kms, but I've had mine open circuit for many days at a time & never caused an error.

out of pure lazyness. plus you never have to worry about seeing the CEL for that issue.

ill check the jaycar kits for something like that. i need to get a few 12v to 12v regulated power supplies for some stuff im gonna throw in the car :)

i got a knock in the front steering. either i didnt do something up tight enough (crappy rattle gun) or a tie rod end is on the way out. i hope the spare is in decent nick!

My theory is (& it's just a theory):- If you leave everything stock & sloppy - no knocks & bangs. As soon as you start adding swaybars, coil overs etc, all the extra stress buggers the rubbers/bushes/tie rod ends etc. It's a vicious cycle this upgrade game.

So just replace everything with nolathane?

I don't think it's that easy. On the 1600 I have replaced all the rubber with nolathane, but have been very careful to base my replacements on the density of the urethane and how it correlates to the rubber.

Some urethane is too hard, and you have to specify a softer version. The other difference between rubber and urethane is the compression. Urethane is more linear and rubber is more exponential. (I think I got that around the right way? - it's been a while).

Also you have to make sure you grease them up properly otherwise they will squeel and graunch.

I am running SuperPro on everything except for the diff moustache bar (Whiteline) and Nolathane on the castor bar/radius rods. These particular bushes available (not the brand) are softer in durometer than the superpro bushes. Fortunately I have a friend who used to work in the automotive industry and he had a fair amount of experience in bushings for driveline.:thumbsup:

depends on how much??

fixed the knock in the rear suspension, turns out the locking ring hadnt been done up and the strut was slowly unscrewing itself. problem solved! also reset the rear height, gave the springs some preload, so much better now. gotta do the fronts next.

i think the front knock is actually a groan and its the new poly bushes are not greased up enough :(

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
