And thanks sl33py for that flywheel ! Its going on my 3ltr and will do just fine.
Used ligthened flywheels on a lot of engines over the years, right up to a full aluminium one. Basically you get used to them as you go along. Its true about their ability to improve the speed of the recipricating mass of the engine. The faster it revs the faster it spools !
Check that your clutch pedal box aint broken the spot welds.
Same ting happened to mine one my r33 when I changed to a 3lt and up graded the clutch and big poundage pressure plate.
Might just be a coincidence ! Have you checked the power steering fluid level ? Make sure you do this after the motor has run for a while and is up to operating temprature. There a sensor in one for the power steering lines and if the level is low and air starts to get into the line the sensor picks it up and triggers the HICAS light.
From memory:
Gates tripple strength timing belt $125 (Acme parts) I think you can get them cheaper from Justjap !
Idler and tentioner bearings (I think) $85 (CBC bearings)
Cam and crank seal (3) $18 (CBC bearings)
Water pump (RB30) $52 ( Acme Parts)
Mechanic to install the lot $300
Got three unfinised ones from the last lot ( they need the thread bored into them ) ! Got pics some where ! The moulding process allows EXACT reproduction of the original item. Right down to the leathery crinkle finish, grooves, numbers the lot !
I used to make exact reproduction ones that didnt wear. No one was interested in buying stock ones so I stopped making them. Basically gave them away in the end.
Im after the drivers side seat tilt leaver ( the plastic bit ) for a R33 GTST as mine never came with one.
Its finally driven me nuts not having one there.
Preferably in Sydney (west ) for pick up but will pick up postage if nesessary.
Thanks in advance.
Has the latch thingy broken off completely or is it just flopping around loose in the holder ?
If its the second PM Smoky as he has made repair springs for this problem.
Famous ! Wouldnt piss on them if they were on fire !
Was with them for nearly 7 years then had a at fault low speed accident(roof damage) and the car was written off buy them.
My first at fault accident in 25 years of driving.
Paid out around $1100 bucks a year in that time to them.
Bought another line and rang em up to get it insured and was told "that we dont reinsure customers after a write off situation, its company police" !!!! What The F%#k !
Went to Shannons for about $870 a year for the same value.
Six month later was sitting at an intersection waiting to turn right and was hit head on by a Porsch running a red. Total write off both me and the car. Shannons where the best. Had the cheque 5 days after the claim went in.
I couldnt speak more highly of their service and profesinalism.
Hi all
I've got just about all the bits off it I want
Car has about 205K on the clock as i have owned it for about 9 years
The car went under a Holden Rodeo with an alloy table top. Slid it up the bonnet and up the A pillar pulling the roof down and continued down the side of the car
The insurance paid out on it and its not a statutory write off just uneconomical for the insurance to repair. So its still registrable after repair. It still has the compliance plates attached.
The motor is only a stripped short motor as I used it for a RB25/30 conversion. Its in there just to hold up the gear box. Everything else is rolling.
The seat bolsters are worn as I used them on my present car. The only other thing that it different is someone offered me good money for the shifter and I replaced it with a RB20 one. Works fine except that you cant shift fast into 4th.
The fuel pump has also been sold.
Not breaking any more parts off it as I want the entire car gone.
$2800 ono
PM me if your interested
Located in Sydney
Thanks
