crunk81us Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) Update.. I have got the wiring harness, fuel rail etc in and connected. I am fairly happy with the layout, only a few things i would do different next time.. The harness would look better.. meh. Mounted the coil on a piece of angle on the valley cover bolt holes. Thinking I should earth it?? Edited December 12, 2012 by crunk81us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunk81us Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 update.. just finished fuel system and wiring, and was testing the fuel pump. 'crank, 3 sec of pump..crank 3 sec pump and repeat 10 times'... and it just started, no cough,no splutter, and idled away. still need extractors for the o2 sensor that i think is making it hesitate a bit when revved? have some pics and vid to upload later. right now i am playing with my car a bit more :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

altezzaclub Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Nice work- you make it seem so easy... but I'm sure there is a lot of problem-solving in there beforehand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It helps that i understand circuit diagrams, and managed to find most of the info i needed beforehand) people on here have been helpful too.. thanks guys! oh and my previous clutch woes were fixed with a new slave! works perfectly. Driving it seems so close now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crunk81us Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Cooling system was straight forward thanks to some flexible silicone hose (top hose), and 2 silicone bends, 2 thermostat adapters as joiners with sensors in them. The flexible hose is cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunk81us Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Backed out of the shed, thoroughly cleaned, and driven back into shed. I accidentally did a small burnout.. This thing is gonna move! :D Mostly masked for some paint. Edited January 10, 2013 by crunk81us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doogs Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Good work mate, keen to see the rest of it take shape! What brake/diff combo do you have planned in future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunk81us Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I have a 2 x standard open, 1x welded diff centres to use up, and 10+ stocko skinny rubber to destroy. I hope the diffs last the tyres out haha After that.. i havent made plans. I have seen a few combos, not sure on the right setup for me yet. Ideally a strong but not too heavy lsd extractors are my next hurdle to a proper test drive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunk81us Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 "accidentally" did a burnout?????? yeh.. who knew a half throttle clutch dump would do that to a 155 r 12 :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordain Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 hey mate, ive got a ke20 with a 4a and i use a stock diff.. its lasted 3 months of abuse every day... if u don't use tyres over about a 185 it will last... Just weld the centre... needs a welded centre or spidergears explode. the right diff to go in is a T series from an ae86 sprinter or a H165 DATSUN ute diff with the ae86 LSD centre ( fits in without much work read on datsun1200.com ) ae86 JDM brakes up the front pulls mine up nicely with a pajero mastercylinder too.. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
