_FNQ_rolla_ Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 So you were able to squeeze the Toyota brake reservoir onto the Holden master cylinder with that manifold. BTW looking good :y: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted October 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 So got some stuff done, i ran out of reasons not to bolt the front together. The front bumper will cover the intercooler better so it should be pretty stealth. I still need to buff the front gaurd before i put the bumper on. I probably should get it rechromed first anyway, as the rear one has been done. Pulled out the nos stuff for the grill and shined it up, decided not to fit it yet though might wait till all the paint is buffed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oh what a nissan feeling! Posted November 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 I made some mounts for an extra swaybar i had here, its made by kmac and mounts to the control arm supports. the old brackets were pretty crap so i made these out of alloy and some rubber bits i had here. I put the badges and trims on the grill and guards, looks pretty good i say. Tailshaft loop arrived Made some new clear screen for the factory gauges, used some 3mm clear acylic i bought off ebay, the factory ones weren't real clear anymore. Mounted the electric heaters under the dash on each side for demister. and put the dash in finally. Surge tank arrived 5 litres, still waiting on tig to arrive to do some mods to it. Pulled sump pan off engine again, it hangs too low, so will do some mods to it to lift it up a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asirike20 Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 perfect...... :yes: factory speedo's lens is conical..... isn't there anyway to get a conical shape from that acrylic?? :hmm: keep it up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted November 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 cheers! It wouldnt be too hard to get the acrylic in a similar shape to factory, any shape really, just get some 1mm thick acylic and put it in the oven. Never really thought of it.

oh what a nissan feeling! Posted December 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Hi mate, 100mm between radiator and front of harmonic balancer, and radiator is 70mm, so 170mm from back of rad support to balancer. I will include a pic for you in my next update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oh what a nissan feeling! Posted January 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) I have missed a few updates here it would seem. bought a ktm 525 shim kit to do the cam shims, have done the inlet cam so far, Will still have to order the grooved type shim for half of them once i have the thickness right. welded a flat bit of ally to the cooler pipe and tapped some 1/8 npt thread in there for wastegate line, and spare hole. Made a fuel rail mount for top feed fuel rail to gtir quad throttles. finished the boot wiring to battery and pumps, pumps arent wired yet though cos not mounted, Made throttle cable mount out of stainless, works well. Mounted gearbox oil cooler under car, ends up 130mm off the road so maybe a bad idea. cooler is 400 x 250 so fair sized. painted some stuff, the clamps i had were only zinc so needed paint, and a few other things, tailshaft loop, fuel rail mount, ect. so i bought a little lathe, can swing a 15" wheel, but no larger. still need to clear a spot in the garage for it. put sr20de plate into cas and modded to work with ecu. shims arrived today. I have been putting some of the lines together, i bought the alloy shifter off ebay america, was quite surprised when it came, really good quality. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/350666738346?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 final undercoat Edited January 31, 2013 by oh what a nissan feeling!

oh what a nissan feeling! Posted March 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 tailshaft loop. shims done, clearances all good. new fuel lines 1/2 inch aeroflow hardline black anodised. I had 10mm lines in there but the fittings i used to join to the speedflow sucked badly and would never have sealed, so since i had to change the fittings i went to the bigger line. The new fittings rocked up today too so i got to finish that off, much better fittings with the olive type joint. Also fitted a billet trans dipstick as well, had to shorten it though as it would have been out the bonnet! Tranny cooler lines done as well, had to hunt down an extra factory 90 degree fitting as things are pretty tight in the tunnel. radiator hoses on. rang around for a tailshaft, looks like $1200 will be spent, yikes! Not the cheapest quote i got, but this will get tranbrake so may as well do it once and right. consists of: 1350 unis billet output shaft 3.5" tube custom rear yoke. Had to go 3.5" tuba apparently due to 8000revs across the line. test for 3.5" in tunnel I have been practising tig alloy welding a fair bit, need to get some skill before i start on the fuel sytsem of the car, still a few weeks away yet. pics from today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
