Oil has had Engine flush through it. Dropped the oil and put Diesel grade oil through for a different type of clean (Basically 15w40 oil with Detergents in it). If this comes out good then the next oil will be Royal Purple.

:)

Buying some Iridium plugs today. Next plans will hopefully be some new bushes,new air filter and maybe a brand new Bosch Z32 AFM because im sick of 17 yr old AFMs acting like 17 YR old AFMs.

I'm mirin, I'll have a look for the issue of HPI and let ya know what number R33-R it was.

Maybe this is the one you are thinking of? http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/229099-1993-r33r-impul-sedan/

Nope, was definitely gunmetal. I've had a look but can't find the issue :/

Slowly getting there. Have Decided (mostly) that i will be putting the Impul rims back on and striving towards restoring this car to its Original Visual Quality

As ive decided this just isn't a car that should be tampered with too much, seeing as its somewhat rare and has its own style from factory.

Didn't end up getting Iridiums(Thought that was what we were getting but mate picked these up).

Had spare injectors from my previous RB25DET (f**ked Piston 6) in my previous Blue Skyline.

so sent them in for Reconditioning and Flow test(2 were a bit low initially but all tip top now :) ).

So just had to swap injectors there and then. Too easy :)

Gearbox oil was low but still decent oil. has a cocktail of whatever it had,Some Penrite 75 and a fair bit of DX3.

Falls under the category of "Thats what it gets" for now. Plan to buy some Smurfs Blood soon.

Havent started car yet as we finished after midnight but will see how it goes soon.

Next up is New 255s for the Impul Rears and Possibly some Diff oil.

So yeah car was having dramas with hitting boost. Changed all 3 ECU/Fuel pump Relays and that fixed it a lot. Now it just needs a proper tune.

Tune is Scheduled for Saturday 14th and i cant wait!

First Registered Voyage :P

201201051659221200x9001325773318.png

First Port of Call :D

Have been inspired to possibly try and source a roof spoiler further down the track.

I also legally get to drive around with one number plate on the rear for at least 2 weeks as i put in an order for my plates to be reprinted. :D

Happy New Year,Peace.

Installed New HKS pod filter using a metal adapter bought from Autobarn specifically labelled to be for R33 2.5L.

But no, Didnt fit as planned lol. Got it on on an angle with only 2 bolts then used some washers with the other bolts to hold the other 2 sides down.

Pretty sure a headlight restoration is on the cards hopefully very soon :)

Did a bit of a height check. Not very happy as previously stated with my ride height for legal purposes but oh well for now i guess.

So yeah some Fuel pump issues arose where fuel would just cut out at random moments a few times each trip

and there was also a problem where the revs would drop below now idle level,recover and then stall..

Installed my spare fuel pump from my first 4 door today which seems to have fixed the intermittent fuel problem but the stalling has happened once or twice on a trip but definitely running better and sounding better :)

Tune is prospected for next Saturday and i cant wait as im driving around on no boost :(

1 positive is that i can do much lower speeds in higher gears than in my previous stock skylines so its not so bad just cruisin around off boost. 30 in second at 2100rpm sounds beautiful :P

201201072358411200x9001325950707.png

looking good buddy. i know a guy putting a 26/30 into a R32 r Impul four door any chance you going 25/30?

Cheers mate :D

Theres a chance in the far distant future but it wont have a 25 head ;)

hey mate, just wondering about the forward facing planum, did it come with it or did you get that after?

Came with the car when i bought it. Not an impul Item but. Just a Greddy Copy.

    • It’s new. It’s the cd009. I did take the transmission apart to mill down the bellhousing and had both housings come off the gears so wondering is something isn’t in right. I am running redline. I can get it in gear running too but it’s just not easier and it’s almost like 2, 4, 6, and reverse all the back gears aren’t happy going in
    • I’ll remember that as a last choice. It’s brand new
    • Got keys and did a walk around the yard planning the landscaping works with the family that I will be doing Main effort: remove all the woodchip in the gardens that are around (attached) to the outside of the house and replace with 10mm blue metal, having woodchip close to the house is a recipe for inviting white ants, currently there are no white ants within the block and I would like to keep it that way I'll be buying some large raised garden beds to grow veggies and stuff, and the woodchip will be mulched with everything else that gets dug up, pulled out, or cut down during works Next will some minor drainage and landscaping maintenance up one side of the house, where the fuse box, AC, and solar stuff will go, about 12 mtrs long by 2 meters wide, I'll break up the soil, add gypsum and then I'll dig in a French drains about 300mm deep x 300mm wide and fill it with agg pipe and blue metal, then level out the whole area with a 50mm layer of blue metal, the soil, whilst currently pretty compacted, will break up well with the gypsum to aid in drainage, I'll then cover the area with a 50mm layer of more blue metal In saying this, the drainage issue is minor, but that little hidden away area down the side is untidy and weedy, and as all of the main elec stuff is there I want it neat and tidy to appease my OCD Again, the material excavated from the French drains with be added to the garden bed mulch, as will some rose bushes and some other crap looking garden plants, and a old apricot tree that is looking worse for wear The apricot tree is currently in a little roundish garden bed that is in the middle of the back yard with few other crappy looking plants around it, that will all be removed, levelled, re-turfed, and is a perfect spot for a hills hoist There is also a area about 3m x 2m between the rear fence and shed that will get some attention, it looks like some stuff was stored there and the grass is dead, that will also get broken up and mulched, and is a prime spot for a pumpkin patch I've guestimated that I'll need: 3 tonnes of blue metal, 12 meters of agg pipe, 5kg of Gypsum, and a hills hoist, so a few bags of concrete as well to set it in place (the house currently has one of those pull out 4 line jobs, whilst it works, I want a retro old school hills hoist), I am also going to run some chickens, there's a great spot for a coop, so a chicken coop to suit 4 of those lovely egg laying bitches will also be on the job card That should keep me busy for a while, and will finish off the back yard ready for a early spring planting of some veggies and berries  Once the main effort is done I'll start out the front, there's a large rock garden that could use some TLC, but that is only minor works Should be fully moved in within 2 weeks, the landscaping works will start then Fun times, retirement is good  
    • It happens, that's what your single stage filler is used for.  If it is still visible after the 3 coats of 2k primer, it will be visible after the paint is laid down.  Its hard to give 100% perfect advice without being there in person, I'm very tempted to say stop where you are, fill your pin holes with a single stage putty first then keep going. 
    • New or used transmission? Alignment will be the same with engine running or not. If new, i'm presuming it's a clutch release bearing size issue. If used, are you certain it's a CD009/A and not an older CD008 or less? They had known synchro issues. In my opinion, these transmissions should always be purchased new, they're dirt cheap and you avoid dealing with old revisions.
