hey guys.
Sorry been really busy at work and havent been able to follow my own thread haha.

getting the turbo studs for the manifold this weekend most likely. then just need intercooler piping made up and my dump pipe and shes all ready for a tune.

thanks for all the support, glad your all ready to see my rb20 blow up haha.
but im excited to also see the dyno results.
should be hitting the dyno in a few weeks as i need to tweak a few things and make up a bracket to fit my fuel rail.
waiting for new braided lines as there was a miscommunication about the sizes, but he sent them out to me free of charge (i just had to cover postage, which is fair enough since it was my mistake).
gotta get some push lock fuel line fittings too.

will keep all of you up to date with results.

Yes dori34.its in the r33.. i received the turbo yesterday... after chating the guy on facebook and telling him ill buy it, he put the price up the mongrel! Ive got him to send me a 7 psi spring as well to run before i get my tune done..

So.. ive got the turbo.. looks good. He also sent me a different spring to adjust actuator pressure. He didn't say a thing as to why he put the price up.. even when i questioned it.. wouldn't reply.

Any way.. ive gone and test fitted it and even though he told me its a direct bolt on and works fine with standrd manifold.. the outlet on the front aluminum compressor housing hits the exhaust manifold. So im going to put new studs and a 12mm spacer on the manifold flange. If thats no good and causes me issues, ill have to get a aftermarket exhaust manifold.

So ive finished the install. First test.. all well. Very quiet turbo.. can hear it spin very freely and smooth! Feels a bit less powerful than the gcg hiflow that i took off . Boost control so far seems ok but i still have to tune my greddy profect ebc. 12mm spacer brought it out enough to clear the exhaust manifold.

Took the R32 down to the tuners to finish off my piping and any other loose ends that i may have missed.

in the mean time, heres the booklet Eji takada sent me (Owner of mambatek).

Not sure what the balancing sheet means. If anyone wants to tell me what it means then please by all means.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

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

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
