Lakeside Classic - July 26, 2015 None of this build would of been possible without the man sitting next to me. Endless hours spent together talking, planning, working. Forever thankful Dad.

Are you sure the rotors are on the right way? Reason i asked is because i have the same rotors and mine are the other way, i double checked it seems like the vains on the pmu scr pro rotors follow the direction of the slids...

i though the vain is suppose to go the rear? it goes from the center of the rotor then out or its the other way?

Air should be coming from center of rotor to outer rotor

that dosnt make sence to my brain, surly it should be sweeping outwards not draggin inwards?

I would tend to agree by looking at the design. Disc designers are a lot smarter than me however...

I guess it must act as a vacuum by creating a low pressure zone outside the vanes which draws the hot air out from the centre of the disc outwards. Makes sense in that it evacuates the hot air and dust away from the centre of the disc.

the vanes would work exactly how a turbo works

sucks in cool air from the centre, and propels it using centripetal acceleration (flings it outwards)

having them curved just helps draw the air through the disc

Vanes are the ones on the inside that pump air. They should sweep backwards.

Grooves are on the outside and remove pad dust etc. It doesnt matter which way they go.

You orientate the rotor for the vanes, not the grooves.

As an aside the Project Mu rotors dont have proper vanes anyway so this stuff doesnt matter very much.

Insane work, well done... Going to be so bad driving on the road for the first time, I bet you will be able to hear every single bit of sand and dirt hitting the undercarriage :(

Thanks Simon, maybe...but there will be so many other epic noises!

Well I think we can safely say thread is delivering on title as promised...

How many tooth brushes have you gone through to get it to this state???? :) How on earth did you get the plugs, wiring, hose clamps so clean... man!

Love the dedication well done.

Cheers Paul. Mate I am well and truly over cleaning I can tell you that.

This car should not be driven. It should be stored in a garage that is cleaner than a laboratory

Ha Bryce, I don't have that level of will power!! I NEED to drive it.

Coming along nicely love checking in and seeing the progress every week. Seriously though buy another one to drive and wrap this one up to neat to ruin.

Thanks mate. With everything I have learnt I think I will need to buy another one to restore and not drive, one day....

robbie will you ever sell it haha?

Don't think so but you never know right

great thread.

Cheers Paul

Looks too good to take out on the street now :yes: Top work!

Thanks mate. Knees will buckle haha

Jus finished reading this thread from page 1. Superb job so far, cant wait to see this through.

Nice. It's nearly there, just need to get the time to get photos up!

Nice build Robbie, can't wait to see the before and after picture. Yay! Can't really wait to see the final output. Keep up the good work and Goodluck! Will follow this thread. :no:

Cheers! Shouldn't be long now mate. I really wish I had the foresight to take more photos of the car before ripping into it...

Power output figure will be interesting

      My thermostat had no gasket?

      By silviaz · Posted

      That would be interested if it's the case as seems like it would make the job a lot messier but subaru sells OEM gaskets so seems it might of had it.

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      By Shoota_77 · Posted

      Fuel tank is out. Looks pretty bloody good under (ie above) the fuel tank.  Amazing how good the factory e-coat holds up in the hidden areas.  No where near as much body deadener to get rid of as the front but still not looking forward to it!  Shit of a job.  I'm thinking I might grab a needle scaler and give that a go before I attack it with the angle grinder and wire wheel which is how I did the front 2/3's of the car.  Feels good to be working on the car again but who knows how long it will last!  Hopefully I can get it further forward than where it was prior to this last block of work when I decided to go back 10 steps further down the rabbit hole from where i already was! The problem is, I'm realising how hard it will be to repair and paint the bumpers, which cannot be put back on the car, and have a good paint match. There are also areas where it would be VERY hard to hide the new paint where it transitions from old paint. Like this- There is only one way to do that perfectly and I really dont want to have to do what that means I would have to do... 🤦‍♂️

      Pretty sure the factory assembly doesn't have any gasket at all, just RTV.

      Rv37 400r questions

      By elir32 · Posted

      Thought I’d post pics of the packages for those interested. The premium package is #16. Remote start, security with tilt sensor and remote and backup battery, auto fold mirrors and door illumination.    Can post up pics of all the factory options and images from the factory options brochure if people are interested. I have all the dealer books etc for all rv37 models.
