well oil pump has been installed and running.

BUT......

i drove the car to get petrol last night, ran smooth.

drove it to tuners perfect.

waited for tuner to arrive, started it to move it onto dyno, no oil pressure.

dash gauge showing 0, red light on, defi gauge showing 0.

cracked the oil feed line off the turbo to see if it was dodgy gauges, no oil pressure.

like WTF!!!

any tips or ideas?

nice power figure. and that torque curve is awesome

btw how good is craigs work. that guy is seriously amazing the way he can just look at something, figure everything out in his head and just build something that'll fit perfect first time

to be honest we dont know..

pulled the pump back off, pulled the gears out and they were fine, cleaned the PRV and that was fine.

pulled checked the oil filter and all the oil cooler lines and they were fine

removed the oil cooler and used the standard position oil filter no change

chucked some compressed air up the oil galleries whent he sump was off and seemed to push a bit of oil out the pickup.

cleaned the sump, pickup and put it back together and its fine?? lol

Nice power :) I saw you mentioned lack of low end when you posted in the dyno results thread, Nistune don't support VCT right? Coming up with something to get around that (or just upgrading to a G4 Link/some other good aftermarket ECU) should get you bringing boost in a few hundred rpm quicker and making a good amount more torque for the same boost level if you haven't got it engaging already.

ahhhhh thats why when im comparing its different hahaha.. vct boys..

yeh im going to buy a nos rpm switch.

but also going to play around with preload settings on the wastegate once i have fitted the stiffer spring..

had a track day at mallala monday 11/4/11

engine was amazing, abit laggy but im working on that with vct.

595ss dont do any good for track so they will be ditched for some semi slicks.

the guards are gonna get molested more to fit some 245/40/18 semis

getting some rear camber arms to bring the camber to closer to 0

my r34gtt brakes wont seem to bleed properly so all day i had very soft and low pedal. any ideas?

today i started to strip the body to get ready for respray. and to fix all the dents and to get my guards flared more.

and pics of the car today

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
