just for general knowledge my power steering pump was leaking and i had an extra pump from the ca18det engine, i got it to work, all you need to do is change the brackets, that is, use back you brackets from the rb 20 pump. the pump works fine no problems. by the way its the stock rb20e engine in the cefiro, not sure if it would work with othe rb engines

thought i should post this here also for reference:

Ok i think i have figured the Transmission Mount formula, with the knowledge i have put together from two AT to MT R32 swaps, one AT to MT S13 swap, and one MT RB to MT SR mission swap.

ok heres what we have to start....

TOP: S13 SR mount for a factory MT car

MIDDLE: RB MT Mount for a car that is factory MT (not converted)

BOTTOM: SR custom MT mount made for a Cefiro that came factory with a AT

note: these are all facing the correct way

so i have determined....

R32: for a R32 RB20 factory AT to be converted to a MT you need the S13 MT Mount to install (TOP)

A31: Same for a A31 RB20 factory AT to be converted to a MT you need the S13 MT Mount to install (TOP)

A31, R32: For a factory RB20 AT car to be converted to a SR20 MT you will need a custom mount (BOTTOM) and the S13/S14 Engine Mount also.

A31, R32: for a factory RB20 MT car (like mine) to be converted to a SR20 MT you will need the S13 MT mount (TOP) and S13/S14 Engine Mount also. oh and the 130cm S-Car drive shaft (measured from tranny end to diff tip)

Example of the (BOTTOM) custom mount where the (TOP) S13 Mount should be, maybe can get two holes to line up if i didn't have the Uras Urethane-Mount installed...

in think that covers what i know so far...

this is in regard to the z32 calipers on r33 na gts 4 stud discs.

z32 alloy calipers came out for 26 mm thick discs and 30mm discs. there were also z32 steel calipers that were 30mm.

now for this fairly simple upgrade to work u will need the 26mm calipers not the 30 mm ones.

Rear subframe?

They fit, (I have an S13 rear subframe in mine), but the handbrake setup on the hubs is different, requiring either custom handbrake cables or installation of cefiro/skyline hubs. Why anyone would install an S13 rear subframe is beyond me.

Parts for 5stud conversion and r33 gtst brake upgrade

Brake Master Cylinder BM44 off r32 gtst skyline

s14 front hubs and Lower control arms

front r33 gtst calipers and discs

Rear r33 hubs and discs and calipers.

Swap the a31 handbrake cable over in the hubs as the r33 is too long. The handbrake drum setup are exactly the same.

also look at getting new brake lines from the arch to the caliper all round as the r33 ones work but dont hook up to things the same way as the originals so will wear alot more.

and 5 stud wheels

The rear hub uprights (aka hub carrier... the solid cast iron thing which the control/toe arms bolt to) are identical to S13 (and I would assume R32).

You may be thinking what use would that have, well I had enough trouble finding a pair of rear cefiro hubs complete with calipers/discs/handbrake assembly then it turns out that the upright was bent, so then I had to try sourcing an individual cefiro rear left hub upright.

This also means it is possible to do skyline rear brake upgrade to S13 and stay 4 stud (for those people who prefer to remain 4 stud).

im in the uk and very very few cefs here so finding parts is a joke

i have a redtop sr20 in mine so its not a problem but a mate of mine has an rb20det cef and he is struggling to find a bloody alternator belt .. he bought one for an rb20 ( r32 one ) and that was to long .. someone suggested a CA18 one but he not sure ??

any info would be great

thanks very much :blink:

They're different to an R32...

Alternator Belt: 4PK860

Powersteering without Aircon: 4PK925

Powersteering with Aircon: 3PK845

Those are Gates belt codes, you might need to check if other manufacturers use the same code.

Just checked... Optibelt's Alternator Belt code is 4PK858, Goodyear's is 4PK0863, Dayco's (Pirelli) is 4PK862, and Quinton Hazell's is QBR4863.

Enjoy

    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
