Piglet's Rebuild Of His Busted Tomei 2.8


Recommended Posts

No new graphs mate, I really should get one, LOL.

When I get my fuel system sorted (was >75% duty at 414 I think from memory) and run 30psi through the TO4Z Ill get one to post up.

Maybe next year

They have taken a fair amount of material out around the valves!

I spose because they are 1.5 mm OS. The head was originally modified for the 1.0's. After it came back from NAPREC Hiroyuki took out a bee's dick more for the extra 0.5mm.

See how it goes eh?

Crank and pistons dropped off this arvo. That should not take too long. Head is less than a week away. Double check CR. Going by my calculations a 1.2 mm headgasket will bring it to 8.5:1.

whats the deck height? Are you aiming for a tight squish for this motor?

Block hasn't been decked at all. Head has been decked 1.0 mm at NAPREC. We just have to get the head here and take some measurements. From what I can gather the chamber volume is 66.5cc but that's got to be double checked.

Not sure if you have read my thread if not please do so as there is alot of info about squish and its advantages

I remember something about a 33 thou squish. How does this change when one of the pads have been removed?

i guess they have taken the intake squish pad out so you can still set the squish with the one pad all it means it will push the air and fuel towards the intake as this will be the cooler side of the chamber. If your looking at running big boost, this will help it from detonation

Springs got sent today, manifolds have been sent by SAL. They should be here in 2 weeks. No point paying extra postage for a heavy item got no reason. Pics up soon!

  • 2 weeks later...

Update here, doing it for Paul cause the pics were taken on my phone.

First is dropped all this stuff to Chris at Craved Coatings (look them up, really good work and very reasonable prices) for ceramic coating. This will be back in 2 weeks;

Next we went to where Marcus had sent the head (Unigroup), this is the first time it's been seen and has only been in the country a few days.

Typical Marcus wrapping, it's bombproof!

Awesome that he left the flight stickers on - Marcus brought it back as carry on luggage on the plane haha!!!

I wont put up the port pics in case Paul wants to keep them to himself and I wouldn't expect anything less as he's paid a lot for this.

Another bit of valvetrain showed up

    • Hi all, I need to get this HKS SLD attached to my stock ECU because I've now got the German autobahn and faster European circuits to contend with.  The car is a manual 2dr ER34 with an AT ECU and I've realised the AT ECU has two pins for speed sensor signals: Pin 29: Vehicle speed sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 2) Pin *58: Output shaft rotation sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 1) - *RB25DET A/T model only Before I go butchering this harness, is anyone sure of which pin is the correct one for signal adjustment? The attached document from HKS indicates pin 29 but I found this situation mentioned in the following thread on a different forum (R34 GTT Auto Trans Speed Cut Problem | Zerotohundred) mentioning pin 58 needing to be altered by member zephuros, albeit it seems to be for an RSM-GP and the info appears to be old.  R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-2.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-3.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-1.pdf HKS SLD Vehicle Pin out P59-P70 ER34-pages.pdf

    • Slimline sub on the rear parcel shelf is doable. Pioneer TS-WX140DA is only 70mm high.   
    • People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.
    • What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.
