Also I don't really think its 3/4 BSP as that's imperial ! Probably got to be metric coming out of Japan ! Maybe ! Should be ! Could be wrong though ! Be in the 19mm range ! Probably ? Jump in anyone !

Nope that was quite some time ago and all I did was take it out of the block and took it to them and said "want this in brass please" ! Of coarse they said " don't have it with the sticky out the side thingy " and then went through the above to make it happen. I think you will have the same scenario and anyway, one way or another, the original has got to come out of the block.

Lacking info here ! Front hubs ? Gearbox speed sensor ! Looking at my previous post I didn't mention its a GTST ! And "The Bogan" I work in your area PM you soon. That will give me something to do, wiring wise, on rainy days while I'm trying to figure out my 5 Zigen Dual Mode Clutch wiring setup. If your gonna turn your brain to mush, may as well do it properly !

Hmm . . . . you have a traction control unit sitting on the shelf . . . I was considering one for my R33 S1 as I've got a GTR rear end in it with the ABS wiring and sensors on it. Also I have an old school Apexi Power FC Pro and was thinking about seeing if they could work together as the Pro has a launch control function in it

Yah ! Id remake it ! And remake it in brass so you don't ever have to do it again. Can you get it off the block ? If so then take it down to a fitting place and grab a hose barb with the same block thread and main tube size. Also grab a smaller hose barb to do the right angle one coming out of the main one. Cut off the threaded end off the smaller hose barb Drill a hole to the main hose barb the in the same position as the original small one and then press in the small piece and solder it into place. Did similar to my R33 to replace rusted out, nickel plated, steel fittings over the years.

GohiraDave said - "Here in Las Vegas we have 91 with a few stations that sell E85 and 100 octane race gas." ! ! They still sell race gas in service stations in the U.S. ? ? ! ? ! I'm moving to America ! Just out of curiosity what's it worth per litre or rather U.S. gallons ?

Must . . . go . . . . to . . . . Finland !

And on the Commadore I think I remember seeing that they welded the extra calliper mounts to the stub axels ! Balls of brass that ! Hoping that there will be no cracks in the cast iron, then taking it on a rally trial !

Wow ! It seems everything new is old ! I remember seeing on a early Holden Commadore that was running in the ( I think ) Repco / Redex rally with a set of front dual callipers ! Then I threw a couple of rocks at the Tyrannosaurus rex that was looking funny at me and hid in the back of my cave until it wandered off !

Looks great ! I took a quick look at their web site and the price is up there in comparison to other quite well know brands. But in saying that, that's a machined bronze impellers and certainly looks the goods. Still got to ask if its re-buildable ?

More likely "The Bottle Imp" tending toward "The Monkeys Paw" !

Looks very nice . . . however I have never see an impeller corrode out over time. If you are using the correct coolant there should be minimal or no corrosion in the engine at all ! The bearings will probably wear out before the impeller has issues. There might be an advantage if the pump is rebuildable as was done in dinosaur days of the past !

Yes ran the red ones in R33 for about 80000km, after my OME ones failed, as they were cheap. Eventually one failed and then went over to Spitfires and haven't looked back. Now been in the motor for around 350000km still going Chucked the red ones in a box somewhere in a box as a sacrifice to the Gods of speed !

Sorry couldn't resist !

Welcome ! And I AM a chatbot cop !

Yah and I was a bit luck cause at the time it came out of a GTR that only had 47000km on it. So all I did was get it checked over, changed out the oil and then went ahead with the install

Yes it did involve the matching 6 X 1 axles and with hubs I went with the alloy ones out of a R34. I got this all when GTR parts were "cheap" and while the whole thing was apart I also fitted up a ( I think it was ) GTR R32 finned diff cover which has a larger oil capacity.

Got to agree with "Butters" here. I've run a lot of variations in different cars over the years, mini spooled, full spooled, Detroit lockers etc etc and I've had the GTR mechanical 2 way ( or whatever its called ) in my R33 for a very long time and cant fault it.

Hmmmm . . was just wondering if there is a difference between 8mm and 11mm spark plug leads in regards to onhm reading on my R33 ? Was thinking about up grading to the 11mm !

And just when I think SAU was getting dull . . . . this happens . . . . love it !

So what's the latest ? is it saved ?

Got to decaffeinated coffee ! Its the only way ! To survive ! An automotive aneurism !

Show me the money ! Its OK Im sitting down and I've taken my angina tablets !

I want one ! Give me one ! NOW !

Oh those hoses under the manifold are spectacular to change ! Changed out the heater hoses on the drivers side thinking they were cactus . . but its still leaking. Made up a bass T piece with hose barbs and soldered in a car valve extension, plumbed it into the throttle body coolant line, filled up the cooling system, put on a tyre compressor and pressurised it and . . . . found the leak ! Its the short 2 inch piece of hose that comes out of the block . . . . above the started motor . . . . so you cant get to it from above . . . soooooo . . . its out with the started motor . . . again . . . . to access it from underneath . . . . went and got a piece of 19mm ID hose that will take about 20 billion pounds of pressure cause I aint doing this again
