The silver looks magic. Why didnt you ask for twin gates? I got this done for my S15, a bit more complicated when it comes to fabwork but a better result i.m.o.

If it's split to the gate like the Sinco manifolds then there is 0 difference.

Find out how much better of a deal you can get if you order 2x Sinco manifolds.

I'm after the T3 twin scroll, single 50mm gate for RB25 (you should go twin scroll too haha). 6 boost ones are nearly bullshit twin scroll. If you look carefully it's not split all the way to rhe gate.

I can let you know. But I won't be ordering shit again till I move house.

I've managed to secure another property today so I reckon I'll order around this time next month. But I don't know if that means we'll get them before xmas/new year?

I was going to get a 50mm twin scroll in that stainless burn finish. Works out the same price as ceramic coating+6 boost and it looks like you get such a better finish!

On another note! Mick has finished his puzzle and I need to get that picked up, Put it on a pallet with everything else I got. Organize the gary for the new joint and move!

I can't vibe with the silver. I am going for a nice black everything, Keep it simple clean look.

The sinco should also see me good for the single 50mm.

Woohoo! Skids! 

Don't worry, I'm in no hurry. This is for a future setup lol. I need to finish off my current build. I still owe Hypergear data that I've promised him about 2 years ago 

Well packed up the garage today for the move and picked up the motor today too!

For those wondering;

CP 86.5mm Forged pistons
Tomei Poncam Type B (260 Degree 9.15mm Lift)
New valves (Brand unknown, Mick organized them for me as I didn't have the ability to address the concern when it arose)
N1 oil pump w/ Nitto oil pump gears
N1 water pump
Nitto crank collar
Nitto head gasket
Oil Restrictors

Slapped on the good old tyre+pallet combo. Not really bothered to put it on an engine stand as Ill be moving over the next fortnight or so.

On the plus side, My new garage is huge! (By my standards) and I have found all my sockets except my 15mm short...

First time I have had a couple of hours to work on her, Managed to make up the TPS adaptor (which is shit and I am going to re-do asap), Fit the idle control valve, Fit up in the injectors, Fit fuel rail, Fit fuel pressure reg, Fit intake manifold, Fit throttle body, Run coolant lines etc. Finally getting some work done to her!!!

I need to buy myself an oil cooler, Coolant hose kit, Some fuel line and vacuum line so I can finish off this side of the motor and move on over to the next.

In the mean time I might paint up the rocker covers something different.

Having more work space is probably the best thing ever!

So finally got around to getting a manifold. After the sickening experience of 6boost figured it would be best I just get someone to make what I want.

Clocked the TB as per Neo's advice, Got the dude that made the manifold to split the pulse as per Dose's advice too!

Wondering if anyone knows if I've taken a bad source of coolant for the turbo? (Last image, Where it goes to the manifold)

Nothing exciting

Remember kids, Try to be sober when working on the car. I forgot to lay the clear down...
(In my defense I have 4 kids and I am usually either working on her in 10 minute windows or at night when everyone's asleep)

I feel like I'm hitting a bit of a wall again with so much going on in life, Just gotta remember why I am doing this and keep an eye on the prize. It's been 3 days since I said I would drop the box and do the push/pull conversion, service the box and refit but the heart just isn't there right now.

Does anyone have pics of their alternator/AC/Power steering/ancillaries setups? It's been a while since I took this all apart and I just want to make sure I have not forgotten anything.

This is also cool, following for sure

I stalked your red one before you sold it, I thought it was really hot; Made me want a red one!

when you put the cams in what other bits did you have to replace? shims,buckets,seats, springs etc or was it a complete new setup?

am pondering on fitting some poncams to my neo, but i wanna get an idea of total parts required so i can suss out the cost before i commit.

Complete new setup bud, But honestly; I would have just dropped them in if I wasn't rebuilding the whole motor. There was no real need to complete rebuild; It was just a measure I decided to take to ensure some sorts of longevity out of the motor considering it's application.

Here's a photo of a NEO motor with R33 ancillaries bracket (the AC/PS pump were both cable tied on the body so I wouldn't need to regas lol)

You legend! I swear back in the day it was easy to find photos of this shit, Now days everything has been lost from imageshack/photobucket and all that other shit we thought would still be around!

--------

Side note; Not sure if buyers regret. But I have been staring at the rims a lot thinking I made the wrong decision. Always loved the rim but I don't know if it will work with the car.

Peoples thoughts?  Sell them or use them?

I feel like it would need more width and lower offset to pull this style rim off but that would also mean a wide body and another 10k thrown at the car+re barrelling.

You'll pull it off, with power to back it up.

None of this bullshit aero and phat wheels for car park meets and Instagram likes ?

    • Welcome to the site. Any more pics? That colour is gorgeous.
    • I didn't even know that existed!!! Amazing, good work Andy at Haltech! A bit off topic here, but I actually met Andy at a Aus Lancer car meet at the old Shell Space Station in Ryde back in 2003 or so. He brought out this aluminium case and showed everyone this basic circuit and said he was making an ECU that was capable of using closed loop to self tune. Most of the people there dismissed his idea.
    • I actually was using 4D tables with my old AEM WMI system. I'm now using "Water Injection Advanced" under engine functions to control my WMI. The timing and fuel corrections are easier to use as they have WMI in mind. Example, my fuel correction is based on my WMI solenoid duty cycle, they also included built in timers to delay corrections before and after spraying, timers to ramp up pulse width, etc.   
    • Just a thought, how come you didn't use a 4D table? So you essentially run 2x fuel and 2x ignition tables, and the table/map switch is handled when there's enough WMI pressure detected. This is mine, but using the flex sensor as the 4th dimension, note the slider at the bottom. Between 0 to 70%, the timing is blended/interpolated , once it goes past 70% ethanol full send
    • Hi guys, after dreaming of owning a JDM legend for 20 years, I got the chance to buy a 1995 R33 GTR.  I live in a small country called the Solomon Islands which is in the pacific. There is no performance car scene here, however 90% of vehicles here are 2nd hand Japanese imports so there is a handful of JDM sports cars here, tucked away.  3 Evo VI’s, 1 180sx turbo, 2 GTO’s, 1 R32 GTR and 2 R33 GTR’s.    Only 1 Evo and a 33 (mine) are active. I’m hoping to set up a club to get these cars back in the road.    I’d known of my GTR for 9 years and always dreamed of owning it. At the start of this year I found it sitting outside a workshop waiting for a respray. It was in pretty bad shape, although running and driving perfectly apart from a big exhaust leak and worn out bushings. My brother in law who is a huge GTR guy came over for a holiday and I took him to see it, he got into my ear and I bought the car 2 weeks later as is.   I’ve had a pretty bad problem with alcohol and weed since 2020 and I really wanted to quit. So I used this as my motivation. I quit everything cold turkey and have been investing all my spare time into restoring this car. It’s honestly been the best experience and has been such a positive impact on my life.  There is no market for these cars here, no parts and no mechanics that can work on them, so if you wanted to sell one it would be pretty impossible unless you found the right buyer. After a bit of negotiating with the previous owner (a good friend) I got the car for $15,000 AUD ($85,000 SBD) which is insane.  I’ve almost finished doing a refresh on the engine, new turbos, spark plugs and split fire coil packs. Also new gaskets and seals, This car had no leaks to begin with, but it’s due now being 30 years old. . Next I’ll be working on the suspension, all new bushings, ball joints, king pins and new coil overs.  Then it will be body work, it has really bad rust in the boot floor, I have purchased a rear beaver cut from my bro which will replace the rusted out one. The car is originally KL0, but was burnt orange when it landed here, then it was resprayed toxic green and then Bayside Blue. I’m probably going to get it redone in Bayside Blue.  I’m super grateful to be able to enjoy this car and couldn’t have done it without my bro Chris from OG-JDM. Looking forward to the future with this car and hoping to get it on the runway at the airport here 😂  cheers fellas
