did the hill climb. was a blast. total handful....

up in the air of what to do.

theres no low to mid range then huge top end for a second and change gear.

do i change the rear housing from a .82 to a .63 rear housing?

or wait till i put a 25/30 in it and hopefully that fixes it?

Before spending money unplug vct solenoid and see if it makes things worse. If it stays the same get vct workimg

yer im going to have to.. just irritates me i have to do that after sending it to 2 different workshops, when i suck at mechanics!

Bit of an update.

Decided to paint the car. currently in a million bits. Have an rb30 also half pulled down.

Asked around, what is the biggest stupidest wing for a 33? BCL was the answer..... as you can tell my dad in the back ground was as impressed with it.... good for a laugh!

Soo as for the interior, i let my much younger brother loose to decide the colour.... he came back with the phantom purple from the falcon BF era i think..... I didnt care so i said go for it. sprayed it on the under side of his boot.... and the result was

I didnt mind it to much.... but he said its not finished and i had to go away until it was done.... i then come back to this

Im unsure how i feel about this... but hes adamant that its what my interior is going to be.... not only that its all been bought! lol Leason to you all dont let your younger siblings pick colours!

Don't go 0.63 rear, yuck.

 

I was defiantly considering it after seeing a s14 with almost my exact same mods on a rb25 make 280kws, and boy was its acceleration excellent and response was awesome.

But im building a rb30 / 25 so hopefully that will put the response issues to bed

    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
    • Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up
    • Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.
