that S2000 wasnt my car, its a car i built with Brian (MR WRX) for one of his customers

but we have done both of Brians WRXs engine bays the same way and im doing mine as we speak

only thing ive done different is take it all a step further with my car and hide all the wiring, which we didnt do in the other cars

First Stage completed :D

Took a little longer that expected as we found a turbo gasket leak that had to be fixed. After we bloody put everything back on! Therefore most of it had to come back off to get to the gasket. Ahhhhhh got to love owning a GTR.

What do you reckon should be next. No one mention polishing the intake plenum as I found out that it would be uneconomical to do so. What it would cost taking off and polishing I could by a Greddy one!

I'm thinking Oil Cap, and tidy up a few lines and hoses and then completo.

lookin good man, u could do little stuff like get a nismo or brand name oil and radiator caps just to set it off. maybe see about getting a polished air partition for your airfilters (Or make one yourself if u have got the skills) other than that the only other thing to do really is try and minimze the amount of visible wiring in the engine bay area i guess. then it will look sweet. but its up to u how far u wanna go with it.

    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
    • Wow that's a steal, you've done well there.

    • Howdy all,   I had my rb25det S2 rebuilt and finally started it today but have run into a few issues  Engine sounds like a a diesel easiest way to summarise like small ticking, gets louder when revs are slightly adjusted  The engine builder repainted the engine cover leaving no where for me to go off with lining up the CAS so have it as central as possible so not sure it that could be affecting it?, changed the gearbox fluid too but won’t seem to go into gear when running, and only 1 to 4 when off having a hard time finding 5th and reverse anyone got any ideas or a base for me to start off? much appreciated
