Simple little 1.5L surge tank that sits behind the diff in the S13/R32/R33 and mounts a single 044 pump

Thanks Ryan.

At the moment I've got a couple of cars but nothing that's running. I don't have the time to do anything for myself at the moment so it gets pushed to the back.

The R33 has never beenade elligability for 2A. Duncan was trying to get them homologated but I believe racing evidence was difficult to find.

Custom made alloy strut brace up for grabs, was made up for an aristo but customer changed their mind.

Fabricated from 6061 3mm alloy plate, two U shaped halves welded together with a solid 3mm plate bottom. slight curve in the bar 5mm rise in the center, unwelded on the top side in the center to give a neat looking gap down the middle

Machined 6061 alloy circular ends welded to the ends.

Base plates made from 6061 which are being redone at the moment to suit a skyline R32 or R33.

Going for $330 inc gst and postage to anywhere in aus.

New oil surge tank ive been developing.

post-20349-0-31546100-1356684938_thumb.jpg

Will those baffles use foam like the mines ones or something else?

I wish i had even a tenth of the talent you have, all your work is amazing!

Will contact you soon in regards to getting a powersteer resevoir similair to the one you did in that r32 with the electric setup.

Edited by k_d

Thanks for the compliments.

It's only practice and patience.

Yeah they are designed to use foam similar to the mines ones but with people using E85 and having E85 in oil and what not I'm getting some better quality foam cut to fit them properly

Here is something ive been working on for some time. This is the 3rd one to be fabricated but the first Ive taken photos of.

Its an oil surge tank specific for the R33.

Basic principal is same as a Fuel system.

9L sump feeds an external scavenge pump

Scavenge stage of the pump is used to fill this tank

Main pressure stage draws from the bottom of the tank via a funnel and internal baffle system

Pressure stage provides engine oil pressure

obviously there has been alot of small things to test and change as the system was developed.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
