Hks hard pipe kit

Arc intercooler

Greedy rad

3 inch stainless exhaust

Pfc dj and hc

Thats all I can think of for now and its allready been added to as above ^^^

little update on my clutch it was sent to jim berry race clutches in brisbane to get built , i have used him before when i built my 32 gtr and the clutch was awesome. It has arrived there at his workshop problem is the flywheel that came off my engine is a nismo light weight item jim berry has always recomended not go a light weight fly wheel ever !

He told me to source an rb 30e fly wheel if possible he said these are the best and are stronger than all the r32 gts t ,gtr , r33 gts t , r34 gtt flywheels.

so i took his advice on that and have purchased one i found on gumtree on the goldcoast and he is sending it to jim tomorrow.

Once the fly wheel is machined i will have jim send it to rob in nz so he can balance it with the engine.

I picked up this type s tomei fuel reg with fuel press gauge today .

For my fuel setup I was thinking of running a walbro 460 l p/h e85 fuel pump and 2000cc xspurt injectors and this fuel reg above with stock fuel rail.

Im still unsure if I have to change fuel lines for e85 Can someone tell me . And also how much modification is needed to fit the in tank walbro pump.

Ive got a similar setup going into my s15. 25neo though

same pump and reg, bosch 2000cc injectors etc

fuel lines shouldnt need replacing but while the motors out it can be a good idea to replace the rubber hoses. cheap enough from auto stores.

if its anything like a silvia the pump should pretty much attach the way the stock one does.

Cheers .

Finaly got around to stripping down motor head is off and strapped to pallet ready to send to kelford cams in nz . Sump and all bottem end accessories that rob requires for the 30 bottem end are also packed up all bolts and nuts bagged up and labeled

I will send off monday hopefully

My next mission is to detail engine bay , replace all fuel lines and fit my new trust 16 row oil cooler kit.

my full gt3582 r turbo setup has arrived with 6 boost manifold 44 mm turbo smart ex gate,3.5 custom dump /front pipe and screamer pipe

my head has been sent to kelford cams in nz to get all the machine work done . also have sent my sump and diff and a few other bottem end pieces to rob at rips racing in nz.

things are coming along and moving fairly quickly rob has already started on my block as of 2 weeks ago.

my next decision is what what colour to paint the engine covers and inlet manifold anyone got any ideas ?? as you can see its like a candy red now

Ok guys I previously posted this in the wrong section from now on with my build I will put my questions here

As stated before I have removed my 26 out of my 33 stripped it down and sent parts away to rips in nz ro build my 26 30now I have thrown away the heat exchanger and im fitting an rb20 filter housing .

How do people configure these hoses just join them together ?

Also im running a single turbo now im unsure where to pickup my water supply and return and what to do with the original hosing under stock inlet manifold. ?

I picked up this type s tomei fuel reg with fuel press gauge today .

For my fuel setup I was thinking of running a walbro 460 l p/h e85 fuel pump and 2000cc xspurt injectors and this fuel reg above with stock fuel rail.

Regarding fuel hoses, teflon braided are a good idea but not necessary. IMO if you're spending an obviously large amount of money on your setup, what's another $200 for lines and fittings? Makes working on it a hell of a lot easier too. Regardless, there is one hose that is ABSOLUTELY necessary to change if you're going to be using E85, and that's your in-tank hose from your fuel pump to your fuel lid. Regular fuel hoses are only coated on the inside and generally work ok with E85; this hose needs to have the coating on the outside too. Gates Submersible is the stuff you want there. Don't use braided in-tank, the ethanol will eat the braid.

The Walbro 460 is easy enough to fit, half hour job. The cradle will need a bit of modification as the pump is taller than the stock one, so you will need to cut off about an inch of the hard line to fit it in. I'd also recommend running larger gauge wiring direct to the pump, don't use the stock wiring harness. These pumps draw a lot of current and will melt your plug.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
