Gday guys, ive attached a video of the first start up after changing a few things including plenum and fuel. Any ideas? It needs a tune badly but im thinking the timing is off? Ive been working on it for months. Oil pressure seems fine, the relocated oil filter is getting hot meaning oil flow. Would love to hear your thoughts

Sorry mate, meant fuel system, eg 040 and re-did the wiring.

Its a loud tick. Not a miss a tick, similar to tappet noise or similar.

Havent pressure tested the plenum and pipework no, i do know thats something i need to do. Was more focused on the tick to be honest!

Same injectors however had them serviced and flow tested. Needed to lengthen the wiring when putting on the plenum too.

The tuner will be pressure testing it on Saturday when its getting tuned, just wanted some ideas to ease my mind a bit!

It must be oil delivery. Can anyone confirm this is right for my oil filter relocation and cooler

block to sandwich plate outer, cooler in, cooler out, filter relocation plate inner, filter relocation plate outer, back to block sandwich plate inner

Pulled the cooler lines off, plenty of oil, pulled the oil filter off, lack of oil! filled with oil then it started to rain so didnt turn it over again. Have i got my lines wrong! ive done it as what ive read and the arrows on the plates or would this mean the oil pump

So lucky me engine is seized. Woulnt start this morning, then after trying to start it had the seized clunk sound.

Upon taking out the spark plugs, the thread on number 6 (closest to the firewall) has had a big hit, number 4 has had a hit and number 1 the plug electrode has been pushed in.

Guessing its the valves hitting them? So thrown valves or something! Would i get away with a top end rebuild only?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.
