This was with

1) was with a straight bar removing clutch pack altogether, solid state lock

2) was over modified transfer case with the bolt in the back trick and 4WD controller

The key was not to over do preload and not have the controller turned up to high, this car had the 4WD controlled by the MoTec

So did you ever verify what clutch they recommend you run ?

In the end I just went the OS R3C. It will all bolt up.

Most guys I sent PM's too who run them over in the uk run the R3C too. Good enough for them, good enough for me.

Do you rate that bolt in the transfer case mod mick.

I've had it done on mine.. Car seemed to respond better in terms of traction

The spline hub is too small, Pete. :(

I knew that, NOT :)

Thats a shame, once it had a little torque it was not bad, even on the steepest hill here, the lookout, stopped and took off a few times and all good.

On a stock 32, yeah good cheap mod that works a treat, but it isn't as good as a modded and properly set preload and if coupled with the modded clutch packs and 4WD controller is a recipe for front diff failure/removal

What is the input spline on the OS88

It's the Chevy spline iirc.

An extra two splines and wider. That was the whole issue with the coppermix

Probably been mentioned before.....but did you look at getting the Coppermix centre machined/modified so suit?

I did look into it. I rang a few places to get the spline hub replaced to suit and got a few mixed answers. I wasn't really comfortable in hacking it up so I just got the R3C with the adjustable fork and release bearing kit. That way it will just bolt right in without a fuss.

I did make a thread on the pommy forum and a few guys run the R3C without issue. Good enough for tem, good enough for me.

Also, the coppermix has been in the car for 10

Years this year and hasn't had a rebuild/serviced. So at the minimum I'd have to replace the friction plates and have the spline hub done. It would almost be the same as buying a new clutch anyway.

Rightio.

After doing my head in the last few weeks, I have decided to return the car back to a standard state and move it along. The OS 88 hasn't arrived yet but i'll put that in the garage for a "rainy" day.

Wait what? You're returning the car to stock?

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
