Hi guys, I am considering buying the Ross Racing Trigger kit for my ecr33. The only thing that puts me off is these seem to get a bad wrap but most forum posts I can find are from almost 10 years ago. 

Has the quality improved? I like that I can reuse my nitto timing gear, don't need to modify my billet oil pump etc to fit this trigger kit. But if its no good, I will go another way - can anyone recommend something better?

 

Thank you.

Ross will have better warranty support being based in VIC. When i was in the same position, I had read about them throwing power steering belts under high load due to incorrect installation. I had my tuner run the car on the dyno for a few power runs after installation to ensure it was running as intended.

Ross Balancers seem fine now.

 

Consider speaking to ignite 5.0 for the trigger kit though.  They don't list the kits on the site but will supply them.

 

I run two RB's, one a Ross 36-2 and an Ati with custom trigger wheel 36-2, both with ignite 5.0 triggers. So much better than other kits around. No cutting oil pump housings, no issues with sync or fine tolerance clearances. Just bloody works and has done for over 3 years.  

 

With  36-2 and a good ecu too, once you have start sync, the cam trigger is no longer used.

I've got a Ross trigger kit (crank only) and have modified it to use a Bosch Motorsport reluctor instead of a hall sensor.

It's been fine with 36+1 to 8000rpm and hasn't thrown any belts.

I made my own cam trigger out of a dead CAS and one of these, pretty simple job and looks like a stock CAS. At the time I was going for a stock looking engine bay but the dry sump has kind of ruined that.

      R32 clutch master cylinder

      By BASHERnissan · Posted

      Hey team,  The clutch on my newly bought 25 swapped r32 feels average and sticks half way. Went to go order a new clutch master but it does not look like the ones that suit the one that’s in the car…    does anyone know what clutch master is this just by looking ?  (The feed is on the side rather than the bottom like the ones the pop up online)  thanks guys new to the RB scene so any help is appreciated cheers !!

      Synthetic oil versus conventional oil

      Id be more than happy to sign up!!! Where do I send the invoices for my fuel usage? I'm happy to provide the mower, oil, and the labour to abuse the motor, just a little help on fuel would be great...   I had tipped the container of oil out into my big "drip tray" and left the small container upside down to drain the oil out of itself overnight. PIcked the container up today, and it has a layer of what feels like either dirt, or shit tonnes of carbon in the bottom of the container. I'm leaning towards it likely being dust, as I doubt the quality of the Sunli BumbleBee having a decent air filter on it, and sections of my yard produce a dust storm, especially because of the high lift blade!   So, filled her up with some fresh Nulon. Seemed to run fine, but it seems to want to run at really high RPM (higher than normal) even with the governor spring slacked off after fire up to try reduce it. If I back the throttle off it a bit to drop the rpm to where I'd like it to be when mowing light grass, it starts to blow a bit of smoke out the exhaust. Opening the throttle back up clears that out. It's definitely breathing oil, as I put my hand down at the breather hose and it's spitting some oil.   My guess is it having been running at high rpm, oil never changed, and it eating dust has destroyed the rings. You know what that means? Time to send it!!!

      That is what will seal with the bonnet closed. Follow it down while closing the bonnet to see where it ends up with the bonnet closed. The panels don't do anything other than spending money, which this one will do just fine. :p

      Nah just send me a photo or a drawing and I'll tell you which is better.  It's a new SAU service.

      Yes, well, one or the other. On R32 (which is the only thing I can look at personally) it's on the rad support panel. You have neither, and it will need to be on one or the other. I must say that the arrangement of holes perhaps looks more like it lives on the bonnet underside on the R34. The rad support panel doesn't look like the R32 one at all. A quick google shows....
