Hey guys I was wondering if I could steal some help

Im putting my motor back together and noticed the intake gasket isnt looking too good. I rang around the local places like autobarn, repco and supercheap and they cant get them in. I couldnt see anything on Just Jap either unless I buy a full kit.

I was wondering whether or not I can use the old stock gasket with a spray over or if anyone on here knows where to buy just the single intake gasket or has one left over from a VRS kit.

ALSO I got an rb30 block to go into my car and I just noticed that the engine mounts have been "customised" by the guy I bought the block from. Would I be able to put my old ones from my rb25 onto the rb30 block or just use some rb30 ones? I have a series 1 r33 gtst with HICAS and was just wondering which would suit?

Thanks

Lukas

Just use your rb25 engine mounts, althouhg the customised mounts may be to allow it to fit under a standard r33 bonnet.

O ok cheers. I will give the custom ones a go and see how it works. If not I will put the old rb25 ones on :) Thanks

Some of my friends are using customized Teflon intake gaskets to replace the standard one as they say that it seals much better and its not prone to leak. As the standard one gives way during tuning and high boost application.

Just some of info that i got.

Any ideas?

O ok. I will try the permaseal one and see how it goes. If it leaks then I guess more money to shell out haha

I have a question about the engine mounts again. I put the rb25 ones on and they look like they are sitting a little high on the exhaust side compared to the inlet side? Any reason why?

      We have some genuine Japanese legally decommissioned car number plates now in stock 🙂 Add some legitimately obtained JDM style to your Skyline or other Japanese model, or simply as a garage/man cave decoration! About the 40mm hole: The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure & Transport in Japan recognised the popularity of keeping decommissioned plates among car enthusiasts and came up with a method to "destroy" (or render them unusable for street use) while still retaining their collectable/usable value for display etc.  We have 40mm hole covers available to cover the hole nicely with a Sakura motif, which are also available in white in (very!) limited quantities, however they frequently sell out. Please let me know if you're wanting one or more of these and I'll check availability. The Sakura motif covers are more common. https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set-su-7515 https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-400mm-hole-cover *Please note that we can't obtain particular number or area name (eg: "Gunma 500 Fu ・86") if requested. All plates are provided as they become available after decommissioning.

      Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.

      You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.

      Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
