Might just ring the machinist I used to work with and see if he will knock something up, not hard I just don't have the tools to do it :(

26 covers would work but it's $_$ I don't want to spend right now and it would means pulling the cam gears off to get the RB20 backing plate off which I really cbf doing :P

Some of the machines are bigger than my shed, bbbuuuuuuuutttttttt after the hoist comes a lathe. Have been looking out for one, gota pay a visit to Hare and Forbes and Ron Mack i think. Some of the companies down here still don't give a f**k to making special parts so i'll do it "in shed-house" :nyaanyaa:

Ahh the R32 All Engines manual :P

I've got a 32 GTR workshop manual too which helps with a lot of the body/chassis/electrical stuff, it's GTR specific but GTSt is close enough in most aspects.

has it got wiring diagrams?

needa find the positive and negative for the fuel pump and cbf pulling out

Bloody bigassed radiator makes the shroud not quite fit the fan :/

I fit a 52mm radiator into mine. Had to buy the thinnest thermofans on the market. Flex-a-lite

Powersteering line got in the way, had to make custom line and bend it off to the left.

I've had a 50mm radiator in there before but the tanks weren't this big, I'm going to move it on and go something more stock sized. I have two thermo fans on the front of the radiator but most definitely want to retain the engine fan and shroud.

yeah the cheapest option.

Tried to say some coin by buying a cheap radiator but got dudded for not fitting. Spent $500~ on thermofans and controller to make it all work haha

However, whilst crusing & spirited driving, water temps stay on 78degrees.

When come to a stop, thermofans programmed to start 1 fan at 50% when 82degrees. Doesnt move unless im stuck in traffic for ages. Might crawl up to 85degrees~. When reaches 89degrees, both fans turn on at 100% to bring it back down to 80degrees.

Nice setup, what controller are you using?

with the 30det i have 52mm rad with the standard clutch fan plenty of room ovaboost were meant to use the twin thermo's i gave them but i guess they cbf and as most ppl will tell u the clutch fan is better than thermo's

Edited by Char

Mick would have done it for a reason. I had thermos in my 32 and we pulled them out when Mick was dynoing it, the clutch fan was way for efficient and cooled better than the thermos for some reason

That's why I want to keep the engine fan, the thermos on the front are just added insurance.

Char, pics please. This 52mm radiator I have would be fine if it didn't have tanks the size of Texas FFS! The tanks actually make it more like 70-75mm and it's way too close to the fan for my liking.

Anyone wanna buy it? probably fit in an S13 very nicely or a 32 without an engine fan :P

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
