hey guys

i just purchased a DR30 off a mate for 2000 bucks

IRON MASK front

JIC coilovers all round

Momo spinner

Nismo cog swapper

LOCKED r200

HKS turbo timer

rather tidy unit

colour is TIGER MYCA off the vt holdens

a few questions:

after installing the 3 engine in this car , (1st dropped a valve , 2nd picked up a bearing due to dropped oil pressure and metal getting blown down the IC pipes from a broken brakect colliding with the idler pully)

new plugs , after eventually sealing up all the air leaks it was idleing excellent

then no reason it wont idle , and when u back off it stays at around 3000 RPM for a few secs the rolls off all the way till it stalls ?

any idea?

i have the engineers certificate and old rego papers

but yet another engine in it , i spoke to a guy and he said all i need is a reciept for the new engine and the old engineers cert. and he will issue me with a blue slip with the new engine No. , is thats right?

cant wait to go cruising with every !

    • If doing that ^, I'd take the idle up valve out and plug the hole in the pump.
    • You can try capping the power steering idle up valve at both ends if it's old. The valve and the intake manifold. That is something that is known to fail in Toyotas with age and it will suck power steering fluid into the intake and burn it in the engine which can cause issues. Then bleed it again with engine off first. Do like 30+ lock to lock turns with the front wheels off the ground.
    • Hi Brent, I am wondering if you ever worked this out? I have upgraded this unit to a newer one and everything works bar the reverse camera, so i really want to know what plugs are what so I can patch the camera through. many thanks in advance Mike
    • Once you have to get up in the morning and be useful, you suddenly value sleep it turns out :p
    • Update:   smoke test all pipes no issues cleaned reservoir   fluid put in ( dexron 3 atf)   steering turn side to side and could hearing  gurgling from steering rack which I assumed was air lock, opened one of the steering rack connections and could see loads of air getting pushed out( not sure if you meant to do that / whether it will re introduce air into system)   anyways, loads of side to side sound was gone. Turned car on, pump was slightly ( barely) wining so turned side to side few more turns and fluid level when car on was almost none in resorvoir which I guess is normal if car is one. Turned car of and fluid was gushing out. Almost 200-300cc was pushed out. Repeated engine off side to side followed  by engine on and same result       going mad now. It seems system is either sucking air in whilst on or there is tons of air which I am not giving it enough time to bleed. Thoughts?   would it work like brake caliper if I open steering rack copper pipes and let gravity pull all air out?   or maybe have a restriction somewhere? What is the red circled item, could that be blocked? It i
