Not really much an update:

Bough a nismo adjustable fuel pressure reg to up the fuel pressure a little as ill probally use the stock injectors with a bigger turbo, and z32 afm. If not i might try to find some S15 injectors and use them aswell.

Also i have put a deposit on one of these:

For the people that don't know its a GTSR manifold and there was probally only 800 - 900 cars made, with maybe a few spare ones in the nissan wearhouse world wide. The guy is in no rush to sell it and hasn't advertised it anywhere i just got lucky when he pm'd me saying he had one :nyaanyaa: . Only problem is it doesn't have a heat shield but i guess i will live.

Hopefully i will have it in a couple of months as i have applyed for my old job back as a second job to bring in some more money.

How so AFAIK RB20 and RB25 exhaust gaskets are the same so wouldn't the manifold's be the same too? I know i will have to re do cooler pipes and the dump pipe but i wasn't aware of anything else, apart from moving loom, rotating the turbo etc.

Got a few little more goodies over the last month.

Oil temp gauge

Bonnet pins

550cc Jecs injectors

Still saving hard for the GTSR manifold i will have it before i got to Europe. Thinking i might get the turbo i bought off my mate rebuilt and z32 afm sometime later in the year, as my job is looking promicing pay wise with alot of changes happening later on in the year. Wouldn't mind some Tomei pon cams and some other little goodies but ill have to see how we are once we move into our place.

Got a package this morning from datberger off the r31skylineclub. Ever since i heard a GTSR i have allways wanted one of the manifolds and now i can safely say i have one! After all the time i spent looking for one he pm'd me saying he has one he might let go, so of course i couldn't pass up the offer. The turbo attached will be the turbo I'm getting high flowed and rebuilt. Couple of pics:

Apart from getting the turbo done the only other thing on my list with out it getting even more out of hand is to get the injectors cleaned and flow tested against each other!

Bigger updates to follow at the end of the year :yes: .

Got one of these from work today! Put it on the old interest free account that keeps on getting higher by the month, i have also ordered the genuine mesh for the other side so it will match. Once i get my front bar off and the hole cut ill give it to my painter to match the paint too the bar and the vent will get a lick of paint!

Ill use the drivers side for the oil cooler and the passanger side for a CAI once i remake the intake pipe up when the manifold/turbo is installed.

Turbo was sent off to be rebuilt and highflowed on Thursday!

Injectors went down to MTQ on Friday to get cleaned and flow tested.

Front bar will be coming off this weekend and will be ready to take to the painters on Monday morning to have the vent matched.

Also looking into options for a half cage in the back. Still retaining the trims and roof lining just getting rid of the rear seats.

More info and pics to follow next week.

Well i got the turbo back from hypergear! Pretty happy with it except my garrett front housing couldn't have been used but ill live.

Much larger now but i wont be able to see what it can do until roughly late next year when i have finished building her.

Im saving for a Z32 afm from Ev at Garage 7 currently aswell as a few other little goodies he's going to hook me up with soon!

Next year is the build year so im hoping i will have 99 percent of everything i want with little spending on other parts. But we all know how that will end up...

As the weeks tick down until Europe the funds dry up! Hoping everything will work out though.

Well i haven't updated this in ages a quick run down. Im back from Europe and about to move into our place so once my shed is built its game on for the old girl. Parts i have collected over the last few months are:

Powersteering cooler with push on hose

Nardi deep corn with blue stitching. Boss kit

Bride vio fixed seat

Harness

30mm RCA

Factory Nissan vent mesh aswell as the drivers side vent. Thanks to work

Braided brake lines and clutch line

Surge tank set up

Solid steering bush

S15 adj front links, D bushs, link bushs front and rear. Rear controll arm bushs

Maybe a few other things but thats all i can think of for now. II have some Tomei pon cams and an 044 pump lined up in the next few weeks thanks to a SAU member!

I have a rather expensive list made up that has some really nice goodies that i would like to get now i have freed up some cash!!

WP_000239.jpg

Only a weekends work :whistling:

I moved the old girl into the carport of our place for the time been until the shed gets built. After not driving her for well over a year i was excited to drive her there so i borrowed the trade plate one Friday night just to make sure i would make it haha.

Apart from that i really cannot wait to get stuck in and start making it all come together!!!

Stay tuned.

Recieved all my bushes and s15 adjustable links yesterday. I can add +/- 0.25 camber and toe this shall help with my fitment as the rear tyres are scrubbing the guards, ill also be doing some light guard work to help them fit in a little better. I think the only bushes i have left to do is the rack from memory.

I also picked up last week some Hel braided brake lines front and rear, clutch line, 4M of push on hose for my surge tank and powersteering cooler aswell as a variety of -8N speedflow fittings for the surge setup. All thanks to Evan at G7.

Thanks mate. Some big updates and progress to come in the next few months once i settle into our new place! I can't wait to get her out again and go for a squirt through the hills on a low key cruise. Keen to do some track days too with the SAU boys but only time will tell.

Aiming for AJD 2014 for the revile after been in a "build" (if you can call it a build) over the last few years!

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
