sic33r

Thanks very much everyone for the info wow I’m surprised by the answers I got. Well ya Learn something every day I guess

Hey everyone have a quick question does anyone have a photo of under there engine on a r33 coupe? I’ve tried googling but got not nothing reason for this, is my engine builder finally has the new engine running in the car and is telling me the sump is now leaking oil around the welds. He needs to remove the sump to fix it, But he needs to take the engine back out of the car, for when he goes to reinstall, he wants to make sure it fits 100 percent. He says a cross member and other stuff is in the way. Surely this couldn’t be right? couldn’t imagine you would have to take a motor out of a car just to put a sump back on?

A tow bar on a skyline... not gonna lie but you have me very worried, please explain

Yeah I’m not sure man. I hate not being a mechanic. New to all of this. It appears I need to do some reading hahaha. all I know is that the bloke that Owned the car said something about it was set up for staged fuel or something

Thanks, can any trigger kit work with any balancer. He said I have a Ross tuff balancer and I should go with a Ross tuff trigger kit.

Yup, long story short brought the car drove it for 112km and found metal shavings in the sump then pulled the motor out and apparently the block and head was f**ked, had to get a new block and head built- took nearly 12 months and now the loom is no good

Ah yeah I’ve just read them my self lol, platinum pro plugin

Ah yeah that does look mint as for that connector... never even noticed that before lol.. As for the ecu I think it could be a plug n pro or platinum but will ask engine builder tomorrow do have these random photos not sure if ya could tell of them

I’m using a haltech, I’m hoping they do quality work, they source an outsider to do the looms for them

Is it bad? If you could give me any pointers I can question him about the layout.

Not sure as I’m no way in means of mechanic, but he said something about it’s had a bit of stuff deleted off the loom and something about connectors or pins. It has a Haltech ecu in it. Would of thought I could get a haltech loom and modify that but he reckons it would cost more in labour to set up

Yeah that’s what was in it before I got it, apparently they are ls coils or something. Engine builder said about putting r35 coils in it. But already up to 7k for loom and trigger kit let alone coils etc. not sure if I should put the car in storage while I save the extra money for coil, loom, trigger kit or get him to finish as it and just risk it and do the extra mods when I have the funds

Yes for sure, just sucks as I’ve been quoted x amount for my set up then it has actually been double $ then made me put a nitro crank in it(6k) on top of the quote and now an extra 7k on top for loom and trigger kit and hasent even been started yet😞 he reckons if one of the wires breaks it could blow my engine somthing about firing in the wrong order or somthing(I’m not a mechanic lol)

Hey, I am currently getting a motor built for my r33(minimum 1000hp) it’s 99% finished, only to be told from the workshop that a couple of earth wires in the loom are broken from being old and getting hot in the engine bay overtime and now need a full custom loom and trigger kit for the car ive been quoted over 5k just for the custom loom... my question is, would this be roughly what it cost? Or am I getting ripped off

Cleaning out my shed gtr blow off valves. $50 rb26 head. See pic for info on it. Make an offer hks controller brand new in box. Paid $700 for it. $400 rb30 block $100 0439015022

Hey i have an r33 manual na 2 door and it has plenty of power for When I was on my p’s years ago it was faster than most 6 cyclinders. But yeah it doesn’t have a hope of catching anything with 8 cyclinders but the end of the day it was pretty good
