Hey guys,

Looking to get my limiter fitted before the next DECA but am unsure where to go as the instructions are entirely in Japanese, and it would probably require someone who knows the Supra wiring loom.

Also I'm aware this does NOTHING for my car, if anything probably puts the engine at more risk, but f**k it. I want to go to a couple of DECAs with a straight pipe, ignition cut and make some noise. After a few events I'll pull it out and sell it.

Cheers.

Come on it can't be that bad for the car. From what I've read its not worse than bouncing the limiter off the normal fuel cut (which admittedly is pretty bad anyway). I'm not going to sit there bouncing for shits and giggles, it'll just be when I hit the limiter as we all do at DECA, only this time with noise and flames.

Plus its a healthy stock NA 2JZ, nearly impossible to break one of those.

P.S. Thanks for the info on Edge, I'll call them tomorrow.

no, it's not the same as bouncing off the stock limiter at all. there are MANY people that have lost motors due to these things

it's an ignition cut limiter, hence the bangs.

the main cause of engine failure is a dead oil pump from the vibrations caused by the bangbangbang, which as you can imagine is not the best thing to happen while you are redlining it.

Fair enough, thanks for the warning. I always assumed the problems came from unburnt fuel passing through a white hot turbo and potentially detonating in there. Meaning my NA would be relatively safe from that sort of problem.

Shame though, would've been a lot of fun.

Do you? im yet to see any, spend more time with the car parked at a kabab shop with the autosalon crowed

Who the f**k are you? Since I don't know you and you drive old pieces of shit your comments mean nothing to me :)

Not 100% True a friend with r31 Stock as a rock sept for a upgraded clutch and welded Diff and a Bee-r got 5mph Better using it for flat shifting then his old PB other then that it prob useless i would have gone with the Gizzmo launch control that does the same things there is a vid on fullboost somewhere of my old evo 6 running it

Well you don't know me. And never seen me drive. Sonit would be quite clear that you haven't seen shit. My car is parked at bp for no more then 10 minutes till we fuel up and leave and meet up with mates. Are you one of those guys that rocks up on a Friday night alone and goes driving up and down

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
