Hi guys well I did leak down on my engine and it looks like slight leak through rings in number 6, the engine is still in car and will include cold side as well as nismo Le Mans turbos but no manifolds and lines etc, this thing still pulls hard and I wouldn't worry really as it drives perfect but I want more power, right now it makes 290 kw at the rears doesn't use oil or water or get hot in any way, it ran 12.1 at the creek and can be driven before its removed for forged engine replacement , it has new timing belt, water pump and tensioners etc and could probably be fitted and run for years without issue, I'm think $2500 Ono comes with cam covers, std coil packs and std injectors but no turbo manifolds or oil/ water lines

I dont want to mutate your thread.

But you are better off keeping your engine and rebuild it if the block and head is in good nick.

Sell your turbos, injectors keep the rest as you already seem to have new bits on there.

My two cents worth that's all.

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
