So, I have done some more things :)

Painted the blasted parts in black wrinkle paint. Started off by polishing the RB26 letters, and had some slilcone on them so the paint would not stick.

Then, I started to build the downpipe. I started this friday evening and did not get f**king anywere. My mind did not work. So I called it the night, and just watched some tv series instead. So today I started fresh and it all came down to me quick, so after a couple of hours I had buildt the downpipe.

I then wiped some dust of the engine bay and mounted the painted parts to get a look at what the final product might look like.

Sits pretty low in the bay. Good for lower center of gravety.

I got some things done with the car this weekend. Not that everything can be seen on photos. I removed the engine to put on the remaining parts in the oilpan. And sealed it for this time.

As usual, I start off with a coffee break!

The air filter I will be using.

Got some silicone radiator hoses for R32GTR, but I do not think they will fit.

Oil drain for the back of the cylinderhead arrived

Fitted the head drain

Welded myself an AN10 for crankcase ventilation where the drain for the rear turbo was before.

Got the ATI Superdamper torqued to spec and the waterpump pulley. As well as the complete TBS and intake bolted up with gaskets.

Flywheel and clutch mounted.

And that leves this for the next time I'm traveling to work on the car.

Damn sorry to hear! Hope you get that fixed :)

So is that an RB25 Gearbox from an R33 GTS-T?

    • This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone
    • Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.
    • I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.
    • I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?
    • I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
