Thanx Packy. & No I am not putting it together myself.

I'm farming out different parts of the job to different speciallists :rant:

CMSdrifter is doing the remove & refit

Moyle engines in Bunbury ( a client of mine) engine strip & reassemble , bore & head porting,

Performance Mods "O" ringed the block

The stall converter is at Allfast

The turb is at Per4manz

SST install Wolf and tune the lot

with Dsturbd & I overseeing the whole thing!

It was supposed to save me some :bling: ...I dont know...but it is keeping me busy :)

MMMMmmmmm 3000rpm Hi Stall arived today :wassup:

Stator was left the same , but Vane angle was changed from +5 degrees to -20 degrees , with the tourque multiplication up from 2.1 to 2.6!

*FREE Bundy can to the person who can explain this to ME!*

Todd....You just want to beat me again :headspin:

  • 2 weeks later...

It's getting there now :(

My new engine is together......yay ( I got a wooly :)) & they are just bolting on the ancillary's.

Hopefully , it will go back in the hole this weekend ( or early next week ) so I can trailer the car to Perth for the computer install :wassup:

just gotta fit the new fuel pump by then.........

I'm excited Big Kev!

*Note: for those RB25ers that want to use an RB30 water pump , it Does fit , but, you have to drill & tap 1 hole.(the stock pump hole is 10mm offset :) )

It's the top hole directly under the intake cam wheel *)

Update , the engine and trans are back where they are supposed to be! YAY

Still have to bolt on alot of accessories , loom , air cond , cooler piping etc ( Go hard CMS drifter :D) but fingers crossed it will be tonite.

My turbo has returned from its 2nd rebuild in as many months thanx to the mysterious number 5 spark plug just catching the back of the exhaust wheel as it siad goodbye to the engine! On the upside I remembered to take pics of the To4e ehaust wheel , 54T comp wheel & new 12psi actuator :burnout:

I also have my new fuel pump to go in the tank. It's a Walbro Gss341 out of the states . I'll fit that before the final tune :)

*note : RB25det thermostat number is 21200-42L06 (76.5 degrees)*

I'm so excited now , I'm about ready to Pop My Cookies..... :wassup:

It LIVES!!!!

My beloved 4 door is back on the road ;) Busy running it in at the moment , only 400kms to go (read Friday!)

The Wolf is in & working a treat , the Hi Stall in a freaky experience tho :headspin: especially at the moment.With a 3000rpm lock up & a 4000rpm rev limit whilst breaking it in , the converter is constantly flaring! & there is a definate knack to making the box change cogs.After 600kms I am getting the hang of it , accelerate briskly til it locks up , then back off gently to the required speed & the converter will stay locked :)

I've learnt 2 things this week , 1) when the alternator bolt that holds the main wire on comes off! the car will only do 12kms max on battery power alone DOH!

2) where the timing belt runs round the crank there is a spacer & a Shaped washer , & if that shaped washer is put on the wrong way! , it shaves slivers off the timing belt!!! DOH! (I will try to get pics of this for future reference)

But after all that........I'm Back :D

My timing belt is being fixed "Right Now" :)

Ready to be Leant on Tommorow ;)

Below is an exploded veiw that shows my timing belt problem...hope it helps someone else :P

Washer 13021F on the crank MUST bell towards the main crank pulley , or it shaves bits of ya belt!

730 out of 1000kms :headspin:

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
