anyone know if u can use r32 rear discs and calipers on the rear of cefiro? i already have 5 stud rear with re drilled stock discs but have r32 rear brakes sitting here and are much bigger

OK if you run into serious parts problems, book yourself a trip to New Zealand, as thats where the bulk of A31/C33's have ended up. parts are plentiful and cheap and much gets binned just got back with a leather interior, all interior switches and window master, all window moulds, bumper and cornerlamps and a set of coils for $100

before that I was getting ripped from a parts importers in brisbane, $125 for a master window switch!

I will add that I managed to hybrid a drivers window regulator together using the window motor and rope from a J31 Maxima

Is there anyway to buy items from NZ over the net? Like a NZ ebay type thing. I saw a NZ website a while ago, had some awesome deals...

Hi all, this reply-post is an offer:

I have a copy of Nissan FAST working here so if you give me your VIN or Chassis/Model/Year then I can lookup genuine parts and see what else used those parts...

So the offer is, please post your questions here. then I can look it up and repost here... which means the parts thread gets some part numbers.

Limitations: only have up to 2001 version so no newer cars are covered... However, R32, R33, R34, A31, C33 etc are in there so yeah.

easiest to get exact results with the VIN Number in form (for example) WGNC34-004669 (this is my Stagea)

This gives me trim level, engine type, even body colour ... Code... lol

The program has a Parts Master module which if you enter a part number will show what cars that part was used on... I find handy for cross referencing to more common Nissans which are in the book at the local car part place.

oh, PS if you give the NZ Plate number (for NZ users only) then I can use CarJam and lookup the VIN (usually)... so yeah.

Cheers

^^ Carefull with FAST, the part numbers are the same even without compatibility on some parts.

While I'm here.

Cold air box from the 33 fits, bottom end bolts up perfeclty, the bottom is short, you need to make a spacer so it can reach the holes.

Use the box, top half, and bottom, and the snorkel lines up, but you need to drill new holes.

There is also a little battle getting the air flow metre on around the intercooler pipes, but it works :)

^^ Carefull with FAST, the part numbers are the same even without compatibility on some parts.

Also some parts are not listed or have "no part number available"

But it's handy to lookup and cross reference and get an idea what the assemblies look like (diagrams)

more guidelines then rules... lol

yea mate www.trademe.co.nz (NZ's version of ebay) or www.d1nz.com (in the forum section)

because they are so many of them there, parts for them are worthless and plentiful. the car I raked parts from was a 1993 25se.

I plan on getting more a31/c33 stuff from this wrecker as I used to work there,

just working on a shipment plan

Some things to add:

Fuel tank seal (really big o-ring) = s13/s14/a32 and more.

Brake lines = s13/s14

Front wheel bearing = s13

A32 tie rod ends fit, but are not the same. S13, s14, r32, or z32 will NOT fit. I happened to have one of each in the shop at the time.

AIR FLOW METER

J30 Maxima (also uses a VG30 engine like the Z32s)

While working on my Maxima today I had a look to see if the AFM fit my Ceffy loom and it does.

Not sure if the AFMs are the same as Z32 but it does fit, I imagine its the same, alot of shit is interchangeable between Z32 and J30.

So, no more forking out cash because the Cefiro AFM is "rare" and the Z32 AFM is "super awesome".

Raid a J30 wreck, also has some useable interior trim and shit.

Win.

Rear brake pads I believe are DB1144, had a look at my pads when they were out and also a look at a picture of them. they appear to be correct and are of the same era as the cefiro. Pads listed are for Nissan Cima (check your bendix cat's)

can confirm this tomorrow when they arrive.

air box from 33 what? Skyline, maxima, laurel?? I'm dieing for a stock airbox

R33 Skyline.

The holes at the top line up perectly (near the strut tower), the ones are the bottom don't reach...they don't line up to anything either, so just use a block of wood and drill it into that so it has a spacer and reaches.

The snorkel sort of fits...it has a buldge under it to go around the power steering main line, but you need to bend it a little, and again, the holes on the snorkel don't line up with the radiator support...just drill through new holes.

    • That's kind of what I was getting at saying you'd be here soon regarding length etc being able to add additional restriction.  My assumption (possible donkeys of you and mption) is that the length of hose to an oil cooler, and back, isn't going to be that huge of a loss. Typically you're talking about 1.5m of total length. And so far everyone in our world hasn't had issues with oil not being able to get to a cooler and back, it's more been, how the heck do we get the oil out of the head and back down to the bottom? I'd nearly hazard a guess the biggest issue people have with oil cooling and oil supply, is being able to get the heat out at the cooler itself (not enough air flow, too small of a cooler etc) Also, when people mount them wrong and make really awesome air traps so they've dramatically diminished the cooling capacity.
    • I will rebutt this and the preceding point from Dose....but without doing any calcs to demonstrate anything and without knowing that I am right or wrong. But... The flow capacity of a fluid transfer system is not limited by the smallest orifice or section of conduit in that system, unless it is drastically smaller than the rest of the system. OK, I use the word drastically perhaps with too much emphasis, but let's drill down on what I really mean. The flow capacity of the system is the result of the sum of the restrictions of the entire system. So, to make an extreme example, if you have a network with 3" pipe everywhere (and let's say a total length of only a few metres) and that 12mm ID restriction of the oil filter connection being the obvious restriction, then for any given amount of pressure available, the vast majority of all the pressure drop in the system is going to occur in the 12mm restriction. But.... increase the length of the 3" pipeline to, say 1000m, and suddenly the pipe pressure loss will likely add up to either be in the same order of magnitude, possibly even exceeding that of the 12mm restriction. Now the 12mm restriction starts to matter less. Translate this to the actual engine, actual oil cooler hose sizing, etc etc, and perhaps: The pressure loss caused by flowing through the narrow section (being the 12mm oil filter port, and perhaps any internal engine oil flow pathways associated with it) is a certain number. The pressure loss through, say, -12 hoses out to the cooler and back is negligible, but The pressure loss through -10 hoses out to the cooler, at the exact same length as the above, starts to become a decent fraction of the loss through the 12mm stuff at the filter port. Maybe even it starts to exceed it. I could actually do these calcs if I knew 1) how much oil was actually flowing in the line, 2) gave enough of a f**k to do things that I hate doing for work, voluntarily for a hypothetical discussion. Anyway - I reiterate. It's not the narrowest port that necessarily determines how much it can all flow. It is the sum. A long enough length of seemingly fat enough pipe can still cause more loss than a semmingly dominant small bore restriction.
    • To pick up what Dose is putting down. Not a lot of point running a huge hose if the motor is still restricted to the smaller size... It's only capable of flowing so much at that point...   *Waits for GTSBoy to come in and bring in the technicalities of length of pipe, and additional restriction from wall friction etc etc*
    • Hooley Dooley these things have some history! If i sell them they will need a certificate of providence to prove they have been in the hands of verified RB20 royalty! They have been stored in a plastic tub, away from sunlight and moisture. They are in mint condition. And they will stay that way, as i have sprung the money for a set of shockworks coilovers. I'm just working on getting them in at the moment, after rebushing the rear of the car, and while the subframe was out i welded in the GKtech reinforcement bracing as well.  They will get a workout at Ararat King of The Hill in November. I ran 48s on the short course there a few months ago, and i am hoping with new bushes and shocks in the rear i can launch a bit harder. There was a fair bit of axle tramp when i tried too hard off the line. a few of the corners had dips mid way which also made the car feel a bit unsettled, hopefully this will help there too.
