Diesel piston. Chamber creates a swirl increasing the dispersion of the fuel through the air. It also controls the flame front alot more. I will try and find a pictures of this s2000 crank that snapped. Think 5" crank nose snapped clean.

that shit is awesome i want to be there when it happens (protected from rouge bits of gearbox though)

man proabably would have been like 11000rpm thats one tough little engine they build though

drove it off a cliff!?! and then was escorted to the movies, all a happy ending cept for the poor civic stuck in the tree i guess..

.

but it is his truck, owner driver.. haha shell be right just put diff oil init to balance the viscocity up... i have heard of an apprentice @ another workshop near us who filled a diff with grease mind u the diffs in the crap we work on are like the size of an engine & take 22l of oil....

i was refering to the guy i work with

Pretty sure its design is refered to as a HERON head

you are correct

Funny looking pistons

Like Beemae30 said it helps swirl & controls the burn better. if u look clseley i kno the pix are crap quality but u can see the pattern ontop of the piston of how it fires from inside, out.... similar to a petrol with hemispherical head but obviously with no spark plug.

had some more eventfull jobs in the last few days lol it must be engine failure season as i have heard lots of other workshops are getting blown engines in a fair bit aswell as us

this boys and girls is when happens when a 4l 4cyl diesel which is limited to 2800rpm runs off oil & revs to about 6000rpm.... BANG

the two missing vavles were stuck in the piston, managed to get one out but other one is sorta disintigrated haha

this is the cyl that destroyed the above valves if u look closely u can see the one valve head i managed to get out..

in these two pics u can see where the valves have made contact with the piston but not quite enough to smash them although they are very bent.. almost looks like they are ment to be there but trust me they are not haha

next 2 are another engine 9 (one a 5 litre 4 cyl diesel) that come in on a hook, customer says the oil light came on and then the motor locked up... when we drained the sump we got bout 200ml of oil out of it, still a mystery where it went.....

thing that amazed me the most bout this enigne is that there is absolutely no sign of any oil in the cylinder/on the piston, the metal is super clean but just all broken up obviously from the force of the crank trying to push it up the bore as it grabbed the liner

post-76142-0-36490300-1316684004_thumb.jpg

this one one is just a pic of that spray pattern i spoke about in another post.. pretty interesting to see the spray pattern of the injector & how the cobustion takes place in this stye of enging (one again heron type piston) i dont kno why it is so dry obviously from no oil but there is not much signs of new fuel either so i think it maybe had a leaning out problem as well which could have helped cause its destruction...

last one is just a Bloody AWESOME effort for stance made bout one of our good ol' portable oil pumps... is pretty mexican but has MAD camber haha, just needs some flares and "Moar" low with some tuck

Hope you enjoy my friends... nyaanyaa.gif

also thought id post up a pic of my toolbox working on my mrs car... i think at that time it was installing her sound system... either that or it was sixing a wiring issue which kept causing the intrument lights fuse to blow...

thing is a 1985 corona rt142... Sooooo much fun to work on & drive, very slow but just a comfly cruiser... trying to convince my mrs to get some coils & then some stance going... although this is not going too well lol...

will be painting it black soon i might post some pics & stuff i kno its not a skyline or even a nissan but its still fun

    • 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
