Tough! Great job man.

Thanks mate! Been meaning to clean it up and get a proper shot of it but never get around too it! Tried to keep it stock looking!

Thanks guys.

There are still a few more little things I want to do to finish it off....

- Swap Billion radiator hose for a factory hose as I think the blue sticks out to much now

- Get a better strut brace, maybe Kansai Service

- Re-polish the top of the Nismo radiator (ut has some stains on it)

- Get a Nismo intake snorkel

- Get a new Nismo radiator cap (the colour is faded)

- Maybe swap HKS oil cap for a Nismo oil cap

...then I think it will be done.

One mine after it all just got painted sitting on the dyno ready to go. Looks way more tidy now (and cleaner). Still a long way to go:

This week:

-New black braided lines for the catch can

-Oil filter relocation kit

-hiding boost lines

-R34 GTR engine cover

-koyorad radiator

Plans later:

-Pod fillters are going after christmas when haltech goes in and i can remove the z32 AFM - Replacing with a black ARC box

and then: Painting random bits and peices/cleaning the whole lot.

Can I suggest getting rid of that breather on your rocker cover and pluming up a big catch can. Otherwise you will soak your engine bay in oil in no time.

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
