hey all got some parts r33sII standard ecu $150 r33sII pink label afm $100 HPI stainless air filter bolts onto afm $50 catch can was on a rb25 $50 two turbo timers $20 HKS quest + $15 Mosfet brand BM50 Brake Booster to suit abs car $120 all are plus postage,slightly neg and located in sa

sold ages ago

so i guess this guy never got his car going then ???

come on

i wont be using the afm and plumbing it inline i will be removing the internals and making a custom pipe to mount it in so i can use the 2 yes?? i think you may have misunderstood how they will be mounted there is no way i would mount two afms one after the other that would not only look stupid but cause a massive restriction to my piping. so now knowing this can someone answer can i use both the afm internals mounted in a custom pipe to run the car ????? look at the end of the day i want to try something different if we all did the same mods to cars then the scene would be boring and no fun at all if it works ill be happy ill have a car that is unique and just a bit different to everyone elses if i wanted too i could and would have put a bov on it... imo thats the easy way out i just hate bov don't ask me why just do lol i remember 6 years ago when i got my first turbo car the first mod was da da a big shiny bov that made a lot of noise never again

i dare say it will be a write off purely because it's a import not many get approved to get repaired easier to write them off. what if they can't get parts for it and your waiting months and months they have to order from japan cost heaps not worth it but you may get a chance to buy back which yeah you can rebuild it slowly yourself with the cash you get.. but its a nice car shame to see it go like that sorry to hear

don't the r34 cams use a different cas drive 32 and 33 are the same

nahh man thats fully sex spec broh needs more chrome though not enough i got three words for ya CHK CHK BOOM

yeah i got my fatc right too register the car with the rb25 all i had to do was get a statement of modification from regency then do what they said which was bigger brakes( and the usual stuff to get the car reg for the first time) did it got car registered (with an inspection ) got another statement for the rb26 same shit just needed bigger brakes (which i had already) and inspection of change of engine numbers did it car now reg with that engine i have been through the channels and because my car is 88 it does not go through the same compliancing system and i am free to do these sorts of engine swaps without an engineering report dont ask me why i think its a stupid play on laws but hey better for me yeah so both the afms can be moved to the one pipe just before the throttle body just confirming cause i wouldnt want to start then find it dont work. i might get a spare set of afms and make up a new pipe just incase, yeah i belive the reversion issue can be fixed with that but i want to do a custom airbox and piping so as little in that area the better as there is not alot of room and moving the afms will tidy up the engine bay heaps if anyone else has anything to add would be great esp if some one has done the mod would like to get some ideas but i will attempt this in the next month or so as it really makes the car un driveable i think the main cause of this is the lack of bov as the air has no where to flow but back out the piping when the throttle body closes and into the afm's i guess most people that run hard piping also have bov either stock or aftermarket.and im pretty sure reversion can occur with the stock piping as the air has to go some where but mainly when you run no bov. with the stock one/ones in place i guess it wouldnt happen.

yeah it is def reversion causing it to run like this but like i said i want to do a custom piping/airbox setup eventually so kinda rules out using the stock rubber piping but yeah paulr33 do you know if i can move the afm ???

yeah its legal we dont really have engineering in sa it had an rb25 in it before hand as my car is an 88 i can get away with a fair bit all i have to do is show regency the engine numbers because im already running gtr brakes all round, i am considering a map sensor driven ecu cause this is bugging me but then its instant defect at least with the stock ecu its all legal and easy too clear at inspection cant get bov engineered no matter what you do here this is what i call the backward state when it comes to cars so im really cautious with my mods so they will need to be 65 mm housings correct why cant they be bigger please elaborate can you tell me more about testing are you saying hold the afm slightly away from the pipes and see if it still stalls out whilst free revving ??? i have the rubber piping for the rear turbo but the front has had a pipe made up welded on to the turbo snout because i was at a premium for space under there and eventually i will make rear rubber one outta alloy and the front redirected to the spare cooler pipe hole for a bit of cold air want to make a airbox as well. now all these suggestions are valued don't get me wrong but i would like to get an answer to my question can both be mounted after the turbos in the same pipe or do they have to read the values for each turbos induction separately i am going to give this a shot and need some info on it as a search doesn't really have much in the way of gtr only gtst

i dont want to use a bov mate sorry with everything that is going on with all the crashes in sa i dont need anything that will let a cop slap a defect on my car and doing it plumb back will be a hassle and i dont believe in reversion killing turbos it aint a proven science just hearsay ive heard good things about the above method on sr and rb engines that run the single afm but nothing about gtr so that is why im asking

you will need to use s14 - s15 front stubs and control arms you don't need to use the control arms i just had r33 ball joints pressed into my cefiro lca's the skylines use a different strut system and it renders the linkages useless in a ceffy because it is based on an s13 setup you will be able to use the front brakes and rotors on the conversion and because the cefiro uses the rear drum in rotor setup you will be able to use the r33 rear discs and brakes i think however you will need r32 gtst hubs to bolt up too convert the rear stud pattern. no a r33 pwr steering rack wont fit either a s13 or s14 will though

well after completing my engine conversion (rb26 into cefiro) and running the car up on the dyno (240rwkw on 13psi). i am having some real bad what i believe to be reversion problems the car is running n1 turbos ,r32 gtr ecu remapped, stock injectors, stock afm's. and da da no bov no im wondering if i can move both the afm's to the inlet piping side or run a single z32 as the car just wont idle after giving it some stick even when free revving it at a stand still it will stall out and run rich i am fouling plugs after not alot of driving and generally it is a bitch to run now before you all tell me to get a plub back bov i wont do it i hate bov with a passion i think they are stupid. now fab work aint a problem so i want to make up a custom pipe to put the afm internals into im just wondering if i can use both gtr afm's in the same pipe just before the throttle bodys or if i will have to run a single because as you know the gtr afm's measure each turbo separately how does the afm voltage read in the ecu does it measure each signal individually and give an average or does it calculate the two as a distinct voltage and process both numbers as seperate inputs because im sure both afms would read differently any help would be great

yeah these go for around 50 -100 max for the pair

yesah need a wolf v400 ecu with hand controller want to ru a rb26 so if you have a plugin that's great if its a universal ill just wire it in my self all good

change the plugs to BCPR6ES gapped to .8mm then put a little mark in texta on the spark plug where the electrode is open (ie where you can see the most of it) when doing up your spark plugs point that mark to the inlet manifold you would be surprised how often this will fix your problems you want the mixture to be ignited if the electrode is facing the exhaust manifold it wont run as well small point but makes a big difference

no your money is mine i spoke too direct clutch and they designed the clutch to be used with the standard gear he said the only times they have run into trouble the solution is to re sleave the slave 1 size smaller to get more stroke

i used an rb25 oil filter block (the one that mounts to the engine block) and am running a oil cooler kit so i clear sweet as. and yes should mod both sides because the mod you have performed only removes the small walls that were there previously in the stock box section i gained an extra 1.5 lt (inc the oil cooler) and for the price a tomei sump baffle is a great idea.

found out the size is 1" for bm 50 check this link for details http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ma...p;hl=bm+50+size

oh and i think it starts boiling at like -150 degrees so yeah your intake charge would be too cold
