So the choice was go 2nd hand and risk it again OR do it right the first time, i chose this way

Getting very serious now mate, I think it's probably fair to say our builds are no longer very similar :laugh:

Seriously, lookin farkin amazing!

Haha yeah well we may have got a tad carried away BUT I'm not touching the fuel system again, I've attended 2 SAU events and both have been embarrassing due to a shortcut from the start, the time came to let JEM work their magic and make the thing tough as nails....

The balancer was just bad luck, but hey more black parts to add to the build and another impressive name to add to the list....

Many people are asking if it will run more power now with the fuel system, I am pretty certain the answer is NO as its tuned safe, as much as I'd love that 500rwhp figure the turbo just won't do it I don't think....

I'll just be happy to drive it hard for once on full power for more than half a lap.... :)

What causes damage to the balancer?

Just age man! Its rubber and my car has done 145k or something like that..... So i wont be replacing it again anytime soon :D

Oh total secks, fapping at fuel setup & balancer....

do you still retain the A/C as well with that balancer?

Yeah everything is retained! Its like a stock replacement, only prettier! :D

ooh yezz... mabs I do the same hahaa..I was thinking of using a R34 Neo balancer on my R33 hahaahha.... don't want to shatter oil pumps and kapow motor

You wont when you see the price of them :O

Mine's done 170,000 might need to look at it then.

Surely you would go for one Balls and All tune to crack 500rwhp then back it off a touch.

Oh and as some may have noticed, the bonnet is freshly painted but does not yet have the lip back on as i havent had the time.......

You may want to run some allthread through the top and bottom flanges of the oil cooler to make sure its core is compressed/supported. When at temp if the thing just hangs from the top they can start to delaminate and damage the core. They need to be fully supported, especally if they are getting hit and banging around on a circuit.

New 25 balancers are about $300

Thats not too bad, for NEO as well?

Yeah wouldnt hurt to have a quick look!

Nope, pretty sure the turbo is maxed, not worth the risk for a number i guess.... As much as id love to have it :laugh:

What a nugget!!! :-P

Cant wait to cruise mate... its been a while!

Lol you clown ;) Hurry up and get the "Coz Racecar Evo" ready...

    • This seems to be a very popular swap since all the turbo skyline prices went through the roof! I'll let someone more familiar chime in, but I understand that yes you probably want to swap the loom in to swap out the auto TCM stuff. You should not assume everything just plugs in either, you need to check at least the ECU wiring diagram for any differences at the plug at the left headlight and probably the ones near the ECU that join the dash loom too  
    • hows it fellas, my first post here which seems crazy cos half the forums i read are like the same age as me haha. to make a long story short ive got an r34 sedan (rb25de neo auto) which im swapping to a s0/s1? rb25det, r33 big box and nismo gt pro lsd. i have the motor and gearbox all bolted up outside the car, old motor and trans out. i bought the motor with stock ecu and loom, do i switch over to that? or will it be easier to get a r34 manual ecu and keep the loom if thats even possible.  also engine mounts look different, anything else thats different or incompatible? cheers, hope this all makes sense Paddy

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
    • This is going to be a mid week evening cruise. Come along and join us for a drive out to Palm Beach. This is a change of event plans after talking to some of the older members of the club. SAU NSW is planning on hitting Old Pac again shortly, stay tuned for details. When: Thursday 26th of June Time: 7:30pm meet/8:00pm departure/10:00pm finish Meet: Spit West Car Park / Spit Rd Mosman NSW 2088 Destination: Palm Beach Public Parking / 16 Ocean Rd Palm Beach NSW 2108 Up to date information as always can be found on the events page of our website, the link for this event is https://www.saunsw.com.au/events/palm-beach-cruise There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
