Not that I care, but when modifying a car it has to all meet the ADR standards.

No changing can allowed, no more than a 20% more power etc.

There's something about changing to an older engine somewhere, which is a no no, but given an rb30 comes out with one cam, using a different head and cams although stock, is still changing the cam.

That's easily sorted by an emissions test though.

The 30 bottom end and 26 or 25 head is a bit of an oddball as far as the standards and law goes.

Agree this setup is perfection ^^^ if i was to go a single it would be very similar.

All will get sorted. Just needs time.

Nice to hear there is some hope among the gloom :)

I know I will be happy when it is done and love the way it drive already, I think it will be a good hill climb car.

The old set up was crap compared to how it drives now, even with the existing problems I am happier :)

Illogical statement.

It was crap because the set up for your previous engine was crap.

That's why you are having the issues now because you are using the same suboptimal setup for your new engine, which is crap right now. Right?

Logical isn't it?

Not having a go at you, just saying now you have the knowledge that your set up from when you bought the car was suboptimal you know why it drove the way it did. Don't ignore the elephant in the room when you are critiquing your previous setup.

Anyway all the best with it and I hope you get exactly what you want and even better than what you expect. :)

What previous set up are you referring to , 1 when I bought it, 2. when I changed the cams, turbo and exhaust 3 the 3.2 and this one is not finished yet and when it is I expect it to be what I wanted to begin with, fingers X :)

Here are the 3 dynos

So do you have a pic of the harmonic balancer ?

Cause if it is in fact controlled by the factory CAS that could be the issue :(

I picked that the build will require a crank trigger to sort out timing issues ages ago....

Those where the pics i've been looking for

Doesn't look like it has a trigger wheel :(

Factory CAS could very well be the issue :/

I hope not but I've seen it to many times

what problem does this cause

Timing scatter at high RPM due to the longer timing belt, this is the problem when an engine is controlled by what is realistically a rubber band

My advise now is DO NOT push this engine till the problem is confirmed just in case cause timing scatter can cause big problems

thanks for that, could have saved me a bigger problem, didn't need anymore :)

Glad you said that I was going for a run today and I have been too busy with the kids for a while.

I will ask them if they ut a trigger wheel on

Pete you'd know if they did, it would be on the bill. Until the murrayis kit came along they were not cheap.

Not on the build sheet or the earlier build before I bought the car, just the ATI balancer and damper ??

Do they make that much difference or more a safety precaution for the motor ?

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
