NEWBIE INTRO

Hey, I'm Amy, new to this forum - recently purchased 2x JDM S15s (1 is a donor and 1 is tubbed) to rebuild with my better half, however he has now deployed for 9 months, and asked me to wait til he comes home before making the build! So, in the last week a GTS 4 R33 dropped into my lap, which I was told has ?blown motor, but likely just low compression (hopefully! I haven't started my seek and find exploration yet) that will be my "her rebuild" project while James is away. Time is on my side.. so no rush! I've been doing some research on what to do with this block.. options options options! To rebuild and leave as is RB25DE; turbo the DE with a bolt on myself, or just remove the DE and drop a DET package... Looking forward to any advice and guidance - always willing to learn and hear from people who've done one of these options, or have the knowledge - please share it!

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
