spanner? you need a 1/4" socket set.. spanner will hit the fan and/or the ancillaries belts I think.. never tried loosening the CAS bolts with a spanner, curious now if it fits lol.. always have used a socket

All done and didnt break the circlip. Im not a mechanics butthole but all went well and pretty straight forward. Ended up with 11-12lb boost heaps better to drive.

Next job is the new heater core i picked up. Not looking forward to that.

Then in 2 weeks going in for a tune. once i pick up the z32 ecu.

  • 1 month later...

Ok bit of progress and wondering where to go next. Got the ecu and nisstune and tuned and what a difference got 207 kw at the wheels which i thought was pretty good off a stock turbo, motor, injectors and fuel pump. Now what next to do. Im thinking afm, injectors and fuel pump. No idea on what type yet some research will have to happen

to be honest mate, you can't go much further without spending heaps and losing response anyway.

But if you want more power and I assume you do, next job would be new turbo. The stock turbo will die an early death if you push it any harder

supporting mods include but are not limited to:

-fuel pump Walbro GSS341/342 for petrol or F90000267 for E85

-Z32 AFM

-Injectors (if you want more than ~245rwkw on petrol or if you want E85 at all)

-coilpacks/clutch if need be.

Don't forget to run a direct battery feed for a new fuel pump regardless of which model you use.

Good luck

would i be able to reach 250kw with the stock turbo.

Absolutely not. Maybe on E85 you could get close, but it will be a bad thing to do. Turbo maxes out at less than this in terms of air flow, and when you push it that hard you are risking it flying to pieces (fragile ceramic turbine remember!!!!!!!!)

Cheers mate will probably go high flow turbo so boost comes on early unless there is an after market turbo that can do this and handle high teens off boost. Will get the fuel pump probably this week if i have time and then in a few months the rest and possible turbo

Look at http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/448435-factory-response-aftermarket-turbo-rb25/?view=findpost&p=7394103 to see what an HG highflow can do for you even with stock injectors. The ability to wind the boost up to values that will destroy the stocker is not to be scoffed at.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
