Clutch Installation & Nistune Injector Change Help

Hi,

I need to get a pull type clutch installed for my R34 GTT and was wondering if anyone had recommendations and places to stay away from (PM ^^). This would include installing flywheel, clutch and rear main seal and rear engine mount.

I had done a clutch on a corolla on the ground and about 4 jacks and never again do i wish to do that. If someone knows how to do that or if its any easy on the R34 then please let me know, at the moment there is only an engine (no intake side or exhaust side) so things shouldnt get in the way from that end.

Also i am changing my injectors to a higher size, and if someone has nistune software and knowhow on how to change the injector size setting so i can get to sydney without blowing out black smoke everywhere would be nice. They are same injectors just 300cc bigger, same brand and everything. I dont have the consult cable yet but can get one. If someone already has laptop and software installed and cable that would be great, can provide beer.

This would be all preferable on the 24th till 30th this month (or after the 16th due to exam) and the tune is on the 3rd of december in sydney so i have small window for mistakes! :(

Thanks kindly

The standard injectors are 370 correct?

if this is correct, 370/670 = 0.55. So you need to take the injection multiplier down to 55% of it's original. Or drop 45% off it.

But you really should have an afr gauge present to make sure it's somewhere near correct.

I have the software, but no cable. Also I won't be around on those dates.

But if you can get your hands on those items then it's a really easy thing to do.

Thanks for the replies.

They are currently 740cc Bosche EV14 ones im putting 1000cc.

If its just for cruising to sydney with no boost you reckon i should be okay with just theoretical settings ?

And you don't need a license to install software where i can edit the existing maps correct ?

Beers sound ok. But I'm extremely busy at the moment. Fixing up my house and moving to melbourne. I'll be in melbourne for a lot of the time. Let me know when you have the cable and I'll see if I'm in town and can make it.

It was just the banjo bolt! Studs were the biggest kent ever i will never reuse a stock manifold again (although looks very stock).

Ended up spending another like 4000$ fixing everything possible, was just going to be to take the turbo off and now i have nothing in the engine bay but the engine block and head!

Any ideas on who can look after the clutch, my last choices are some holden mechanic dude or garage floor and jackstands.

Thanks

      Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
