Injector loom modified, injectors fitted, splitfire coilpacks fitted & engine loom wiring in progress...5947b1ec03160_enginewiring.thumb.jpg.f8cefb44982d82e0f6b0358dd8aa012e.jpg

 

Ditched the thermofans as they weren't really keeping temperatures under control, back to engine fan but a bit too close for my liking...

Have purchased GKTech engine fan which supposedly is thinner & more efficient (win-win) - on its way....

Dummy-fit the top intake manifold & Neo engine cover to see how it will all look. So far so good! Couple of hoses on their way from Japan to finish the intake plumbing...

Hopefully finish-off the wiring by next weekend & get the car ready for some intercooler, intake pipe & dump/front exhaust fabrication!

Loving the progress, making me lean more and more to doing a neo rather than a standard RB25! you had any real difficulties with the wiring so far? or has it all been pretty straight forward?

Wiring still in progress but a lot trickier than a s1 rb25 motor.

The neo loom has so many plugs for TCS, ABS, Sensors, Headlights, etc so its been slow progress to work out which to keep & which to cut.
So far, Ive worked out that the rb20 ecu grabs ignition voltage near the plug at the airbox and its a matter of wiring this to the brown eccs/ign relay & another pin on the ECU.
Im trying to make sure aircon, power steering, hicas, wipers & all dash switches/sensors work with the Neo so am tracing each wire to each plug and working through it slowly.

The Knock subloom on the r32 is separate and connects into the rb20 engine loom; whereas the Neo knock loom is integrated into the Alternator subloom; still working out best way to connect into the Neo loom.

Working on all the little-bits to make the car go...

Time to flex!

Nothing beats new parts...replacing the coolant lines.

New clutch slave cylinder with custom hose

Tailshaft shortened, balanced & fitted.

Replaced the 30mm Turbo spacer with a 20mm spacer, much  better fitment now, hopefully the dump/front clear the aircon lines now...

With a 7ltr ASR extended sump, means more oil - bought enough for two changes & gearbox oil to suitoils.thumb.jpg.6e066d3e750d15669343cb30b8c2ae10.jpg

 

Hopefully next week we will be in a stage to fire-up and see if my wiring has been done right!

What compression pistons?

 

Specifications
Part Number: SC7297, 14028-6
Make: Nissan
Engine(s): RB25DET NEO
Year(s): 1998-2002
Piston Material: 2618 Aluminum
Bore Size: 86.50mm
Compression Ratio: 9.0:1 CR
Connecting Rod Material: 4340 Forged Steel
Connecting Rod Length: 121.50mm
Compression Height: 1.220"

Wiring loom finally sorted and Nistune + flex board soldered in.
Despite AFM plugged in, larger injectors on a stock map and no intake pipe connected, the engine cranked & started!

Car will be towed to fabricator and tuner on Monday, hopefully have a running car this Friday if all goes to plan :)

Some fantastic work done by Havoc Fabrication, their attention to detail, care and professionalism is above all else. Thanks to their workshop for tackling this mammoth of a job.

  • Custom stainless steel intercooler piping with zero holes cut
  • Custom stainless steel intake pipe from z32 airbox
  • Custom stainless steel dump & front pipe with another cheeky o2 bung for wideband sensor/tuning

A couple of wiring gremlins to sort out last minute but the car is ready for run-in tuning this Monday :D

    • IMG_8641.mov     She doesn’t sound the best but starts with out using any gas now. I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub
    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
