fuel system is like 10 years old, so thought better be safe and upgrade, gone carter black and 044.

and even more motivation!

im aiming for three weeks be running again, still need to fix diff and the rack and some other things i forgot, hopefully soon,

  • 2 weeks later...

yea, so im sick of paying the diff place to re do the diff, and since they wouldnt help me out with price even after ive been there more than 10 times with the thing (end rant) i did a small bit of research, spoke to tim wilkins and he was more than happy to help me out, so im doing it myself!! ahh feel better now!!

shits apart

2i06eiq.jpg

so when i pulled it apart found there attempt at making a shim!

all 4 of the phillips heads that held the hemi where all munted so changing them to allen key cap screws

yea so there piece of tin was .3mm

spoke to brae and we figured out .6mm should be the go! thanks again !

so from what i found if u use a .5mm shim your preload would be around 75/80fpds, i want 95/100 so hopefully itl obviuosly lock hard but as it wears will take longer to start opening up.

im still not finishined so this is in experiment mode, tim reckons i wont need them, but ill wait and see when i get the new plates from him,

also to help me with my memory /others out later

(( 1|1|1 centre 1|1|1))

yea so 14 plates total.

doing it your self = knowing exactly whats been done to it :)

i'm not too sure how these diff's work although be sure to take the back lash into account, so once you shim it up test the backlash and see if it needs adjusting.

after shimming my r200 into a locker the backlash is crap and low rpms are annoying, i just cant be stuffed changing the backlash shims just yet lol

thats it! and if i f**k it up i only have myself to blame! hahah but yea backlash should be fine since i only pulled out centre??

Nice choice of fuel system, same as mine. I made a under car surge tank to keep it all nice and neat.

haha steve ! looks like im heading the right way! man ive dummy fitted the carter pump, sux that it has to be mounted upright, kinda limits positions

yea ok so im no diff expert, but after talking to someone who is, i found out that these type of lsds shouldnt be shimmed! it basicallly just makes it a locker and completley stuffs up how the lsd plates work/lock up.

so the only way to get preload is to add another spring plate so, it will have 6 spring plates instaed of four.

((( |1|1 centre 1|1|)))

ive done mine like this with the best springs i had, so trail and error at moment, basically i should have just got a kaaz years ago

so when i was torqueing up the crown bolts, i snapped one, im blamming the amount of use they have had, so upgraded to 11.1 allen key. much better than stock, and look pretty.

also when trying to find main cap specs, this came up on search engine, haha

thats it! and if i f**k it up i only have myself to blame! hahah but yea backlash should be fine since i only pulled out centre??

so true!

i ment short nose r200 r33 diff, the back lash shims are just behind the crown wheel and you unbolt the center into two bits and install the shims with in, so safe bet is its completely different diff from what your describing

so car runs finally! getting somewhere now!

cool stuff

and yea complete! well kinda, still need to do a catch can and some other stuff but getting there!

cars currently at mrc for tuning, hanging to drive a again!

29gdj5w.jpg

I mounted it in between rad a cooler to make sure it doesn't again

limo is awesome Im just looking for a 3.9 ratio now cars just alittle to boggy and I don't have the skills to go fast enough

I also getting heaps of bind o and the rack popped again, so im getting rid of offset spacers and moving rack forward

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
