slowly roy. Had a fair few time constraints lately, had averaged over 90hrs a week up untill Christmas. Just waiting on a possible fuel rail group buy i will be doing then im set to go i think. Getting pretty anxious and really want it done to be honest with you lol

Is this an off the shelf item? I'm interested in one of those and the pwrsteer reservoir.

I fabricate both of those components in house.

The surge tank is a generic fitment for R33/34 & V35 skylines. I don't keep them on the shelf but fabrication time at the moment is fairly reasonable.

The power steering resivour is fairly trick and shaped to the wheel arch. That is R33 specific and won't fit anything else so I don't keep them in stock either but again fab time is fairly prompt currently.

Recieved a hypertune rain and a turbosmart reg today. Ran into a small issue with the outlet direction on the P/S tank, just need to change the direction of one of the barbed fittings so i can fit in a bov return pipe through the same hole as standard. Just waiting on a few speedflow fittings, some 90 deg barbs and some injector extensions and then its good to go for a run in tune and some bewst

Got some Jew brew and started it last night. Turns out I have a damaged turbocharger. Has a thrust issue as the front compressor is fouling on the backing plate by the sounds. Also has a faint knock when slowly spun.

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
