  6. hi guys, been a while since ive posted, or had any progress sadly, bought a dirt bike so that's been taking alot of my time

     

    Christmas holidays came up and i thought it would be a great time to start doing some much needed work

     

    made a bracket to mount the ls2 coils on

    so i thought it might be good time to replace the starter motor as is been dicking up something fierce, like starting to get really hard to start because of it, not to mention embarrassing

    considering the manifold had to come off to get the starter out, may as well get the quads on to aye

     

    top of manifold off

    bottom half off

    sorry havent got that many pics at the moment, will try to get some tomorrow

     

    just about all the looms done, just needs some tidying up, didnt want to finish it all off before i knew it ran

     

    first tried to start it late last week, had some issues, one had the fuel lines hooked up the wrong way, sadly took a while to figure out that one :bash:

     

    then when got the fuel lines worked out, the fuel rail leaked around where i welded the an fitting in the end, i didnt realise it was leaking until i tried to star the the car and it back fired, causing the leaking fuel to catch fire F#@k!!!!!!

     

    jumped out the car in massive panic, trying to figure out where the closest fire extinguisher was while trying to blow the fire out like a candle, lucky enough commitment with the blowing and it went out

     

    pulled that off and re welded the leaking bit, installed, no leaks, still no start

     

    left it for a while, broke my foot, left it longer

     

    did a fair bit of playing with settings and stuff in the haltech of the last couple of days and finally got it running today

     

    it only starts and idles at the moment, working on getting it to rev, there no good base maps for this thing so ive had to make my own maps, not easy, and

     

    there is a vid, I'm uploading as I'm typing this, will post it as soon as it come up

     

    paul

  7. alright, little later than promised, but here it is

     

    this is the vacuum canister, there is a line from every intake runner, one to the booster and there will be one for the ecu, the silver thing in the end is the idle control valve, its off a n14 pulsar, nice a simple and small, two idle up valves and an idle adjust screw

     

    the two idle valves should be good cos i have three different combos to try to get my idle up right, (one on, the other on, or both on)

    speedflow fittings again hahah

    on another note, been nominated for rcoty, awesome :dance:

  8. took me a while but found it, obviously not going to be exactly the same as the ke70, but will give you enough to go off

    edit, maybe thats not it, but found another site that said the new resister should be around 10k ohms

     

    http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y242/1Thsalvermo/Truck%20pics/Tach-fix-resistor-installed.jpg

  9. i had the same issue when i did the 7mgte conversion in my bundera

     

    basically the tacho in the ke70 is set up for high voltage/output pulse signal, coming directly from the coil

     

    the tacho signal coming from the v6 comes from the ecu, is lower voltage/output which means the signal isn't powerful enough to be read by your tacho

     

    there is a way around it, there is a resister inside the tacho that has quite high resistance, you need to replace this with a lower resistance one, the resister is not hard to find, its the first one in the board coming from the signal wire

     

    i can't remember the ohms of the resister i put in, ill see if i can dig up the info

     

     

    theres also the issue of the tacho will be reading wrong, it will be getting 3 pulses for every rpm now instead of two, this means the rpms will read higher than actually are

     

    this can be fixed by putting a potentiometer between the two wires that come out of the board to the needle, the +ve and -ve, you will then be able to adjust it to give the right reading

     

     

    i hope this has made sense, ill try dig up the link, it has pics and stuff, it was for a hilux but should be similar

  10. only small update for tonight, hit the piss way too hard last night, today was written off sadly (i hate wasted days)

     

    made a trip to speedpro on Friday night and bought a shite load of speed flow fittings and weld on's so i was able finish off the fuel rail and started working on the the vacuum reservoir,will get pics of it up when its done

     

    fuel rail done

  11. ran out of picture rooms

     

    this is with the loom on the motor, fairly happy with how neat it cam up

     

    post-1114-0-49055000-1320222880_thumb.jpg

     

    and from the front, neat is hard, i hope i can keep it up for the rest of the loom

    that's in for now

  12. yeah looking at computers now stu, got to suss something out soon

     

    got a few things done on the weekend (was long weekend and finally wasnt working all of it lol)

     

    got my new second hand tyres fitted, stretched like a bitch, not very confident in there grip yet but maybe they'll run in a bit

     

    post-1114-0-82152600-1320221680_thumb.jpg

     

    been working on ideas with this engine and its over efficient oil pump, they have a habit of filling the head with oil and running the bottom end dry if held in high revs, not good for me considering it have no mercy and will be 8500rpm limiter

     

    so my idea was instead of stuffing around with restrictors like the RB's (there doesn't seem to be any for the CA, and I'm not about to test something out) is making the oil drain faster

     

    so there's this hole in the back of the head which had a welsh plug in there, it opens up into the valve spring cavity

     

    post-1114-0-94766600-1320221846_thumb.jpg

     

    in which ive grinded down a 1/2 brass fitting to fit in there

     

    post-1114-0-06270100-1320221913_thumb.jpg

     

    and all glued in there, if i had a lathe or was patient i would have done it so it was a press fit sort of thing, but I'm not, so epoxy will do

     

    post-1114-0-44499200-1320221965_thumb.jpg

     

    this way if the head starts to over fill with oil, i.e. the original drain holes aren't flowing enough, then opil should rise up and drain out this fitting, which will have a hose to a return in the sump

     

    fuel rain also needed some work, the original mounts just weren't going to work any more, and the feed line fouled on the #1 throttle body

     

    so i removed all the ugly old mounts and feed line and made these mounts, I'm going to run a speed flow fitting in the front end for supply fuel, i just need to make the trip to get them

    happy with the way it will turn out, needs a coat of paint yet tho

     

    post-1114-0-29370000-1320222374_thumb.jpg

     

    started making the new wiring loom, just working on the bits i can without being in the car, so all the injector and cas and temp senors stuff

     

    post-1114-0-07372600-1320222466_thumb.jpg

  13. And after a few days working on the manifold, match porting all 8 runners to the head, and matching the round port of the throttle bodies to the once oval manifold, knife edged the split in the port i was finally able to bolt the quads on and the trumpets on and smash it on the motor for some, what i would say are some what horny photos :dance:

  14. finally a decent update

     

    mate that i was getting the welding done by's welder died, so had to find some one else to do it

     

    have a friend a the local 4wd custom shop (4b fab) and he did the welding on the manifold for me, they did a top job, and only cost a cool hungy

     

    post-1114-0-58863100-1319974579_thumb.jpg

     

    welded around the inside too

     

    post-1114-0-32683600-1319974677_thumb.jpg

     

    grinding it out to make it all pretty again (i have since smoother all this out, just don't have photo ATM)I've done a lot of port work, and has taken some serious time, i will never ever wonder again on why porting is so expensive, because with the hours i put in it sounds cheap lol

     

    post-1114-0-93787700-1319974763_thumb.jpg

     

    heres a pic of the work that was done in the head

     

    post-1114-0-85310300-1319974887_thumb.jpg

     

    i also got the head back finally, had it shaved down by about 35 thou, which will give me a healthy 12:1 compression ratio, cams and cam gears are in
