Hey guys,

So I have a RB25det R33 and i was wanting to deloom and tidy up the engine bay a bit.

What is the easiest way to deloom and make it look a bit cleaner when i pop the hood?

Just looking at the engine bay is making me more confused on where to begin, everything is so tightly packed together.

Any help will be appreciated! Thanks!

i was thinking the same thing.

was trying to find a spot to place my oi catch tank and realised how clustered the engine bay was.. :(

anytips on re wiring and anything that i can just throw out?

Yeah, glad someones on teh same page as me hahah. the AC can come out, that will open up a good amount of space.

The other annoying part is how in a r33 the loom runs through the firewall from behind the ABS. i guess itll have to be alot of rewiring to be done.

wait a sec, I was serious in my comments...

but it seems you actually just want to delete stuff, like AC...

just confirm for me 'you want an easy no rewiring way of making the engine bay look uncluttered without having to rewire...?'

no, there is no simple way... rewire it all and relocate the fuse box...

or rip out the engine and replace it with a carburettor engine with no headlights, electric fans... engine bay 'deloomed'

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.

      Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts.

      Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha

      Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
