Greetings from the far away lands of Canada! LOL

To be quite honest, in Canada, there are very few web boards that are as knowledgable as you guys in AU! Much props !

Being that this is one of my first posts here, I hope I'm not being a dumb newb and posting in the wrong section :wassup:

Well it's been a long month an a half journey to get this done. The car is still in progess since the car is running on a z32 ecu temporarily as we are waiting for one to get reprogrammed.

Car: 1989 Skyline R32 GTS-T Type M

Swap: RB25DET + a whole lotta other great shiet.

Paint: Satin Black. I assure you guys the car is not painted with spray cans. It does indeed have a clear coat on it

Interior: JIC Magic Seats, DEFI/Nardi/Apexi goodies etc

Enjoy. All comments welcome.

If you look carefully, we actually cut a pretty huge section out and made a "sinking" aluminum plate for the battery and the piping to go right through.

What use is bigger piping if you dont have a bigger TB? Q45 TB :rofl:

And here is a pic before anything was done. This was when we were trying to fit the front bumper and side fenders. We ditched the fenders cause I didnt like how it looked.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
