knore Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 Can i ask how you transported the engine back and forth and the cost for that? Also did you replace engine mounts or anything else?

Cubes Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 knore, not that you are asking me but... When I had my motor built up it was sat on a pallet, strapped down and glad wrapped up. Fork came along and dropped it on my trailer that had a nice thick rug on it so I was able to slide the pallet off. Myself and my other half then slide the pallet off the trailer on to the ground using a few bits of wood. Easy Peazy.

Abo Bob Posted January 21, 2006 Author Share Posted January 21, 2006 One of the SAU NSW club members helped me out with TNT to transport it. Best to get your engine builder to book it on their account and then bill you, that way you get proper trade price. I drove to an industrial area (not far for me) and looked around for a pallet of the right size (you want one about half or even less the normal size). It was easy, had plenty to choose from. Companies just stack them up near their rubbish bins. I bought a twin pack of those snatch straps for about $10 and strapped the engine down tight.

Then when it was done proengines got tnt to pick up and deliver back to you?

JustinP Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 It is about my rebuild but it was also supposed to be a repository for NEO info which it has turned out to be.Shonen - you're obsessed with highmount. I'm more likely to put nos on it than a highmount. That said, a 2835ProS would be nice but I can't afford anything atm. I've already got the highflow so I'm sticking with that due to $$. I've got some cams going in though so that should make some difference. I think the 4 doors have the viscous LSD and the 2 doors get the helical LSD which means I'll be up for a new diff at some stage. I was pretty sure all the turbo (2dr and 4dr) have the helical diff and only the autos have the viscous LSD's? Does anyone know this for sure?

adznight Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Pete, * The internal diameter of the stock GTT guage holes is 60mm * Defi BF guages (amber or white dial) are only available in 60mm Therefore the Defi BF (60mm) gauges will fit fine as you can see from the pics, but the bezel will be mounted outside the hole. This pic shows Defi black 60mm gauges (not BF) fitted. Not enough gauges here....

satanic Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 JustinP; you want ideas on how to install a e-01 in the R34? We've done two now (one on my one and one for a customer) and we concluded that there is only one spot for it... and that's in front of the centre vents. Custom bracket needed to be made...

Yep any ideas would be great I was thinking of removing the ashtray, bolting in a bracket inside, and mounting it as low as possible there. I figure it will cover some of the double DIN stereo but don't mind. Think this would be possible? My gf said she would rather if I didn't cover the vents heheh I don't actually have the E-01 yet so I haven't got a real idea on the size of unit yet, I guess I should check the specs on it.

satanic Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Well the way I've done it is actually just using an upside down L bracket which "hooks" onto the air vents... 1) It's removable for security 2) It looks neat 3) You don't have to look all over the place whilst driving 4) The rather intrusive wiring can be run into the vents 5) Ventilation keeps the unit "cool" 6) Keeps double din area completely clear Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95854-my-rebuild-and-what-ive-found-out/page/9/#findComment-2767784 Share on other sites More sharing options...
