Guys,

Took the ceff out for a decent spin around my area today, found a few things wrong :down:

and help would be awesome.

1) powersteering is on and off

theres no leaks, has plenty of fluid, belt is good.

either the rack or the pump is dying?

What can be used to replace the stuff items from other models of nissan?

2) Missing /spluttering on boost

Running a gt2535, new platnuim plugs, gapped correctly, everything seems ok.

might be down a coilback?

keeeping in mind that its running a stock ecu

any idea's?

3) strange idle

doesnt want to idle, then it does, then it does at 1500rpm.

Im sure ive red something about the acc valve in here.

Cheers :P

pretty sure its the rack in the car Dan, ive changed the pump, checked belts, bled the lines etc, the only thing i was going to do was change the rack and the ends. should sort it out, but before i got it all running the power steering used to only work once the car had warmed up, weird. also, S13 rack is what they have, but get an S14, aparently a little extra lock :D

not sure about the missing on boost, never had a prob, but that was with stocko turbo (stock ECU) and also with a 2530 HKS running PFC.

Idle, not sure, something to do with the Acc valve, i think softy unpluged it and it idled fine, so not really sure. only happened after we swapped over the engine, but we used all the same accecories, used the same loom etc. was stumped on that one, maybe an auto elec can shed some light. maybe try cleaning the idle control valve as it was sitting around for a few months before i got time to do the swap?

good luck with it! i miss sliding the old girl now :) currently looking for a new car to pig out :)

      Nismo coppermix twinplate clutch

      From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
