so with the brake disconeccted, pump the brakes for 30 seconds then what??? what does this do?

no just disconnect the battery, then pump the brakes dont ask me how but supposidly it drains all the circuits and resets the ecu, i actually tried it once with a prob and cleared it for a few montsh till i went power fc

ok so im just in from the shed and i have done the following:

1) took out and taped up every coil to cover any possible "cracks"

2) undid battery, let it sit for a bit while hitting the brake pedal and playing with the light switches (whats that ment to do if there is no power?) then reconected it all up again

now for the test run, i did about 20 standing starts, pushing hard through first gear all the way up untill hard in 4th.....and it was perfect, not one backfire, there was a small hessitant bit in one of the launches though....

but then as i went to take a corner hard in first gear over 4000rpm is backfired and coughed like crazy, this would suggest a problem either in the fuel tank pump or with the new fuel pump the previous owner put in????? only did it in corners under hard excelaration, like as if the force of the car was moving a pump and not picking up correctly???

cheers

how much fuel you got in that tank?........if its only doing it around corners now, you might want to consider fuel surge

ok sounjds like surge, i recommend taking out the pump and make sure it was put in properly possibly not set up correctly and the pick up is too high, if its like a walbro the pump will be small and maybe set up in the cradle to high, if she low on fuel take out the pump now!

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
