I'm a fitter/machinist Dan. I have helped other people out previously with different projects along the way. I love helping people, however the biggest reward is the ones who truly and genuinely appreciate your time. 

The last guy I helped I realised the extra cash is just a sweetner, as unfortunately the appreciation was more of an expectation... I struggled alot with motivation. 

 

However the guys who give good feedback, it honesty wouldn't worry me if I got paid or not lol 

 

Thanks for the feedback and compliments as usual mate ?

OK so as long as I'm really appreciative you will come to my place and finish my car, sounds good. Hell I'll eveb fly you down here ;)

Quality makes sense given profession.

Sounds good to me man! Lets make it happen ?

I've always been interested in custom car fabrication/sheet metal work etc since I was an apprentice. Did an advanced welding course to learn some more about tig welding and the sheet metal, I just make up as I go along.

Maybe I can have SAU build my car. 

Timmy can build and fab, @Dose Pipe Sutututu can tune it, and we can do a GoFundMe to pay for it all lol  

Oh shit! Here we go. It's happening ?

 

You get a free car build, you get a free car build and you and you ??

 

Never thought of a gofundme for something so important! ?

and while we at it, we can fund the tuner (me) a F30 335i M-Sport with a factory LSD lol...

I will contribute to that a fund a built R33

While we're all in the giving mood! Why not? 

Yeah it works well, I give my R33 to the fund, somehow someone trades/strips/sells that and turns that into a BMW for me, and i"ll tune the car, and you get paid for fab work :)

All the extra cash can go into our pockets.. what an idea, just as good as that LMCT plus site!

What could possibly go wrong!?

Very minor update. 

 

It drives. Drove it approx 10m out the back to give it a wash. 

 

Still a few things to sort out, like rusty rotors, ordered the rest of my exhaust components today, a dual flow meter setup for my tig regulator so I can back purge this exhaust, double check everything and off to get a tune. 

 

Thanks for reading ?

Dyno when? 

I'd like to say early November. I've got a weeks holiday coming up, so unfortunately there won't be any progress then as we're going away. 

 

I'd estimate 3 or 4 days to make the exhaust, back purging everything as I go, including modifying the engine crossmember for clearance. 

 

Another few hours in a wheel alignment (currently in track setup) too before I trailer it down there, so then I can drive it home once finished.

Which page/post has the negine specs so I can review first lol 

Oh and what dyno does he run.

This engine is a stock P12 SR20VE. Stock cams, stock head, springs etc. Stock bottom end. However has been shimmed to 0.01mm factory specs. 

 

Engine is only running the alternator, no P/S pump, water pump or A/C

4-1 to 3" collector headers

3.5" - 3" mafless intake pipe

Haltech Elite 1500

That's basically it man. 

 

This is basically an interim engine, partially to make the car more enjoyable for me and so I can teach the wife (or she can teach me) how to drive on the track lol. 

 

Then I'll finish off the P11 engine. 

 

Jez uses a Mainline Dyno from memory.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
