As long as you have similar turbo port, you could "match port" them all depending on the two exhaust housing patterns you are trying to match.

Don't worry Joel, progress continues, I'll reply to your text in a minute

Ahhh sweet I'll look into ;-)

And I finally invested in some gas lenses for my torch and I must admit they made alot of difference to the apperance of the welds(oxidisation) only played with stainless but getting some really nice colors with the welds the gas coverage is awsomE :-) best 10 dollars I spent this week hahaha

It's all good, I am self taught and it would have been good to have the basics right from the start to save the time on trial and error, but hey, I'm slowly getting there but still have a very long way to go!

  • 2 weeks later...

Just a few of a couple of things I done on the weekend. I think I have got this new welder dialled in....just some minor things I needs to polish up on but it's good progress in my eyes.

Happy welding,

They are wiper bottles and coolant overflows for vl's.

Yeah the rb26 is still underway. Just trying to sort out some stuff with suppliers which is proving a little harder then expected since it is such a customised and detailed request.

Looks like you've made a radiator overflow for every single VL left on the road ;)

Actually the red one you seen here the other day needs a new one. Drop one past when you can, I don't have the time to design and fab it when you've area done it.

Spewing I packed up the tools just after calling you. I will get it ready tomorrow night and drop it off on Monday if that's not too late? If it is, let me know and we can sort something out

Ever thought about doing a PS reservoir for an R32? I am powder coating my PS pump over xmas and getting it converted to banjos (provided I can get one with a large enough orifice and going full threaded lines and would be interested in going allow reservoir

Yeah I have. I am just waiting on mine to be finished with the engine conversions and then I am going to do a hole heap of stuff for 32's.

I have already done them already for vl's and I can't see them bring all that different.

Here is a photo of one of my customers cars, Matthew Grace. Described in an article as "a giant-killing Datsun 1200" Matt took out the Sports GT-B class in Tasmania this and is currently being rebuilt after an accident ready to back it up in 2012.

Good luck Matt!!!

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
    • Maybe SAUNSW could see howany members would do a motorkhana day if Schofield's is still available for a reasonable price...
