Nice work man, looking the goods!

[shift_rook]

Doing well! Nice work on all the photos, i always get half way through a conversion before remembering i should take photos. How hard was it modifying the S13 pedal box?

[ridemx21]

Doing well! Nice work on all the photos, i always get half way through a conversion before remembering i should take photos. How hard was it modifying the S13 pedal box?

the pedal box is actually really easy. in the photo the pedal box behind it is standard and the one infront it made to fit my car.
all you do is put it on a diet. cut alot of one side off so it all fits in. then used the spacer off the s13 firewall so it sits in the right position. Its not 100% finished. i want to weld another bracket on it so the pressures not all on the firewall when the clutch is engaged, also will put a return spring on it as you have to cut the mounts off from the standard spring. Other than that you just have to shape the pedal to fit and i also flattened the firewall a so the master cylinder sits up flush

[ridemx21]

found someone i know with an r31 so told him to head round today and i swapped out the lca's to get rid of a bit of track. still thinking i might redrill the lca mounts to push them in a little more which will give me more room to move as far as wheel go.

sorted out some adjustable camber tops to suit an ae86 (same as ke70)
and decided to get the loom out of the halfcut
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/401208.jpg
also still trying to get an extended adjustable castor rod length if anyone can help me with that?

[ridemx21]

got some s14/r32 adjustable castor rods today
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/401634.jpg
and camber tops are in the mail so front suspensions close to being finished

[ridemx21]

Does anyone know of what tie rod ends are used with r31 control arms and s13 rack

[ridemx21]

made myself a gearbox crossmember the other day, the mount sits in a similar position as standard so i started with the standard corolla mount cut a section a welded the centre section of the nissan crossmember in.

My dads home from work at the moment so i took the opportunity to get started on the wiring. I ended up using the whole body loom out of the 180sx halfcut, so first started by cutting holes and mounting the fuse box

being cut from the middle of the car we got started on wiring the back half of the toyota loom to the nissan loom
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/403443.jpg


also got my ae86 cambertops so put all the front suspension and steering together including shortening tie rod ends and rack ends to suit r31 control arms

I ended up buying this yesterday for a diff;
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/404649.jpg
the rest of it will be wrecked so if anyone needs parts...


Also tried the steering column from s13 and was more work than it was worth so continued to wire the corolla switches into the loom, so far i have managed to get the ignition and headlights (park, low, high, flash) all working so still have indicators/hazards and the wiper stalk to do.

[ridemx21]

Been a while between unpdates but Uni is finished for the year which should hopefully give me more time to spend on this as I haven't touched it in a while now because I've had exams and stuff.
During the week I picked this up

http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/408391.jpg
will be using this as my lift pump to surge tank 129lph low pressure pump.

Had a look over my wiring tonight and realized the interior light and the handbrake light on the dash were not hooked up so spent some time wiring those up. So the wiring is more or less done now, need to tidy up a little and that should be it.

[ridemx21]

didnt spend as much time on it as i wanted to this weekend, just tidied up a bit of my mess and finished off the pedals

Is that the standard ke70 castor rod I between the s14 ones?...
nah that's the standard s13 castor rod, Toyota use a different setup to the Nissan ones

[ridemx21]

Been a month or two since ive really done anything on this. Have been waiting on a heater core that I ordered which turned out to be the wrong one and then couldnt find another, so ended up just buying another wreck
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/503778.jpg
So pulled the heater core out of that pressure tested it, fixed the leaks and put it in. So today i started assembling it all into the car and piece the dash back together. I also ended up cutting my new stereo into the top of the dash and wiring that up
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/503779.jpg
plan is to spend some more time on it tomorrow. Want to start getting work done again!

[ridemx21]

http://youtu.be/J__qKmgewnc
No real achievement as the car been at this stage for a while just hooked a fuel pump to the battery and a jerry can to test if my a/c compressors getting power, which it is not :( but still feels good to have the engine running in the rolla for the first time

[Skid_KE70]

i love this build

[ridemx21]

Bought a set of 16's off a mate so I wheeled it out of the shed, pulled the rear springs out and took a few photos

[ridemx21]

Realized that the R31 diff is 60mm wider than the ke diff and the wheels were definitely not going to fit so started rolling/pumping the guard which ended up being a mess as they needed to be re welded, bogged and painted. I've got them done now good enough to put the new diff in and see if it will fit but they are still going to need some work before they are perfect. Also cant decide whether I like the wheels better in black or white....

got some s14/r32 adjustable castor rods today
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/401634.jpg


Not sure what going on with this pic.. is that S14 on the left and S13 on the right? i just know that using S14/R32 castor rods with the S13 setup you are limited to about 6 or 7 degrees castor when maxed out as the rods S14 rods are longer then S13.

you've done a good job of using the parts from the Cut.

is it running yet?

So thats the s14 adjustable rod of the left wound out to where it reachs
the standard s13 rod in the middle
the s14 adjustable wound all the way in on the right

where i have mounted the swaybar/castor rod mount is further forward that where it fits in a silvia so the s14 rods are need just to reach. This is because the engine is moved forward 50mm on the crossmember so the swaybar hits on the sump in the standard position. Still dont think ill be able to get much more than 6
or 7 degrees before the wheel starts hitting the front of the guards. Yer my aim was to use everything i could make fit from the halfcut. It can start i post a video up before but not properly, fuel pump isnt hooked up, no cooling system, intake, exhaust, diff or tailshaft.

[sundee]

Right i see. look forward to seeing some updates

[ridemx21]

started on my diff...
cut mounts from r31, was going to keep panhard rod and swaybar, panhard rod was going to make things more difficult so got rid of that but will still use r31 swaybar.

Easy as that huh! Nice! Might have to look into doing this conversion!

[ridemx21]

got myself a vl manual tailshaft on sunday (both ends fit up). Pulled it all apart, serviced the cv joint and made a bracket to fit the centre bearing and will be shortening the rear half in the next few days.

got a heap of stuff done in the last couple of weeks, but mostly just finished off small incomplete things. connected up brakes and bled them up, welded up the cable mounts for the handbrake and put them together. tightened up all the suspension and steering. pulled the engine back out cut the shifter hole a bit bigger and made a plate to cover the rest of it. changed the oil pan to a tomei one i had, changed the oil and oilfilter pulled the turbo off and changed the gasket and gave the engine a good clean. also cut out the front a bit for the radiator to breathe a bit better, mounted up the power steering reservoir and ignitor and neatened the wiring up a bit. put the engin back in. put an exhaust up that im going to modify to fit. got my intercooler and started trying to see how im going to make everything fit

nice work on that tail shaft dad ;)

[ridemx21]

Did some work on the fuel system the other week, had to change the pickup and return im the tank to 10mm and 8mm then run a 10mm line through the low pressure pickup pump the the vl pump and run new 8mm hard line out of bundy tube to the engine and for the return. Once I did this i made an exhaust to just before the diff rigged up a quick,dodgey intake and took the car for its first drive. Since then ive put the dash all back together and interior is mostly back in and have assembled a few other bits and pieces; rear window, right guard, etc. decided the other day that im
Going to move the battery into the boot so i cut the tray outof the engine bay which gives me heaps more room for washer/overflow bottles and cooler pipes

[ridemx21]

I have put a fair bit of work into the car since the last post. Battery has been relocated to the boot, a new top water outlet was made so i could fit in a hose, bottom hose was shortened and radiator has been mounted. Also found some heater hoses that have a reducer built into them as the engine outlets are bigger than heater core and cut them to fit. tidied up the wiring which allowed me to remove one of the relay boxes (the 180sx one which mostly consists of headlight retract relays) and mounted it all up. Got an intercooler off a friend with stainless piping to fit an s14 so we cut it up and made it all fit in, piped up all the vacuum lines and charcoal canister and basically mounted everything in the engine bay and started making up a fan shroud. need to find a new drivers seat and do some rewiring in the interior as the connectors i used aren't that great and have been causing me problems so ill go through and just solder each wire in. Then the engine will come back out to tidy up and paint the engine bay so everything can go back together to stay.

pulled the engine back out and painted the engine bay, put some spot lights on it to help it dry but had a problem with mosquitoes thinking it was a good place to rest and dying in the paint but brushed them off after it dried and its all hidden anyway so didn't bother much with it. change the clutch to something a bit more mild for the pits, painted the box and all underneath the car.

took the car for a bit of a road test drives well. calibrated the speedo but just having a problem with tacho not working, seems like a problem from the ecu signal. Got a set of s13 stockies for it to get ready for the pits. also finished flaring guards and gave the car a respray.

Scat h-beam rods
Wiseco 86.5mm 9:1 pistons and ring set
Arp head studs
Cometic mls pro street top end kit
Timing chain kit
Permaseal Valve cover gasket set


My cranks been ground up and i gave acl race main and big end bearing, and the blocks been hot washed ready to be decked and torque plate honed

Today i decided to do a bit in the engine bay. Got rid of the maf and replaced it with a pod filter adapter, 3-2.5 inch silicon reducer and a piece of straight 2.5inch pipe. Also got rid of all the egr stuff from the engine bay and started re routing my wiring and ignitor through the guard

I'm rather devastated I'll be missing power cruise.. Hope it all goes well mate! Hope to see some footage of it!

[ridemx21]

Finally got around to setting up a surge tank the other days, just getting around to making a cover
To seal it off from the boot.
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/515225.jpg
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/515226.jpg


Also went to change the top hose and when i pulled it off so did the plastic barb on the radiator top tank so i got myself a aluminium one of ebay, made some new mounts and put it in
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/515227.jpg


Also took the spacers out of my front coilovers and did a wheel alignment and realise when i lowered it i cause massive toe out so i fixed that up and now it feels alot better to drive.
Also took a little more off the rear spring and got some
Shorter shocks off a mate who never used them. They are for a commodore wagon so they are much harder and perfect length for my springs

Shit! Didn't realise this was in W.A awesome work dude, looks killer

[Jakroyds]

How do the shocks feel?

Looking good though, would look sweet with some slimline/prestige plates, at least for the front?

cheers guys, yep in WA, would love so personalized plates but i just have no idea what to get on them!
shocks fell much better than stock but im going to have to look into stiffing up the rear a bit more eventually.



had some radiator troubles (after a week of driving the fan decided to hit one of the rad tubes) so went twin thermos and wired them into an auxiliary on my ecu. Got bored and decided to try my spare rocker cover which i painted yellow, but wasnt happy with it so resprayed the old rocker cover and plug cover in low gloss black and went over the writing in gloss black. think i will end up paint stripping the yellow one and colour coding it white, but I'm happy with the black for now. Also thought id do a compression test while i had it apart and was around 140-150 on all cylinders. Also was getting loud noises from my 044 so i started pulling my fuel system apart and realised the lift pump wasnt working so i replaced it with the goss pump i had

1. Does a good skid.

this thing is so sweet big ups for doin it all yourself

So the rattle didnt get any better so i called nissan and the old tensioner weree superseeded by a new part number so i ordered one in and they are much different. Put it in an so far no noises :)
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/516399.jpg

[NetworkFart]

I must ask, How much trouble was the wiring? and did having a whole frontcut make it easier?

[ridemx21]

I must ask, How much trouble was the wiring? and did having a whole frontcut make it easier?

Wiring just takes time, patience and a bit of thinking but its not too hard. I definitely recommend buy a halfcut, there are so many pieces on it that come in handy. you also know you have everything there running in the halfcut so your not missing anything to make it run in the new chassis

You will become addicted to the induction whistle of that turbo very quickly...

[ridemx21]

took the car down to the drags last night to see what it would do while its still stock. Had a bit of a problem with a miss at high rpm but still managed to do ok. Learnt a fair bit and would like to go back soon when i have issues sorted

3076? Mine is whistle central

[ae8zn6]

Apparently its those bleed veins on the inlet side that cause the whistle... Man they sound good though....

PS low 13 is good, especially given you were having a miss!

Should piss in 12s with the new turbo!

[ridemx21]

Put nolathane bushes in the trailing arms and panhard rod. Crappy job
But made the back end a lot more predictable


Had a powersteering leak in the pressure line so decided to cut the old line up and make a replaceable braided line with JIC fittings to make it cheaper to service in the future

Hey man been meaning to ask, what coolant neck is that on the head to the rad top hose? Doesnt look like a normal sr20 one

[ridemx21]

Hey man been meaning to ask, what coolant neck is that on the head to the rad top hose? Doesnt look like a normal sr20 one
I had to make it, basically just cut a flange out of some thick metal and welded a right angle to it. The hose gets too kinked up with the stock setup because the radiator sits so much closer. I think the hose i used is for a vn commodore v6 and trimmed a little

[gaspal]

Fair enough thx mate, was hoping it was off some kind of SR20 from a gtir or something. agreed theres not much room for a hose with the standard neck but I just ended up triming the rad support and moved the rad fwd to give more room.

Yer i spent some time at work searching for a front wheel drive setup and in the end was just easier to make one up. I also cut the front to make the rad sit further forward.

[ridemx21]

so after seeing the price of a genuine garrett v band flange i decided to buy a $30 v band kit and turn it down to the right size and made up a dump pipe

[ridemx21]

Got the car on the dyno last night but quickly ran into some
Fuel issues before we got much done. So now i got some 1700cc injectors,
Ordered a holley 12-1400 fuel pump and am sorting out some 1/2 inch hardlines and a better surge tank

So.. 382.4HP with fuel issues? Farking hell

[ae8zn6]

lol, ill be lucky to get 280hp without fuel issues on my SR.

What rear tires are you running again? 205s?

[ridemx21]

Upped the fuel system
1700cc injectors
Holley dominator 1400 pump
Aeroflow surge tank
1/2inch feed 3/8 return

Once it got a bit of fuel back into it the power figures got a bit more realistic too

F*** this thing is getting serious! haha

F*** this thing is getting serious! haha
I might have got a bit carried away

[lappy]

Looks the goods man! You planning on drifting this?

[ridemx21]

Plan is to give it a crack at some stage

[ae8zn6]

haha, wow!

Do you get traction in any gear when you hit boost?

Justin was saying you are running the Link G4 right?

how do you find it?

[ridemx21]

Haha it hooks up suprisingly well, id like to got 4.11 gear ratios to tighten it up a little.
the Link is by far the best bit of gear I bought for this build. Originally i was deciding between nistune and power fc and got talked into this by a mate who had one and its well and truley paid itself off, makes things so much easier. Gets rid of the ugly maf, Have any issues you have data logs to look through, boost control is a matter of buying a $30 solenoid and works better than any other boost controller. When i ran my thermos i didnt have to run any sensors or anything just a relay and set it all up through the ecu with so much control over when they come on and off, with my holley fuel pump being a twin pump i have one wired as a regular pump then the other switch through the ecu with a certain parameters such as boost or rpm. you get other cool stuff like 2 step limiter and yer tuners like justin seem really happy when you tell them its a link they are tuning haha.

[ae8zn6]

OK Cool, thanks for the response!

Justin was fairly unimpressed by the fidelity of the Nistune even though he got the numbers I was looking for out of it.

Sounds like it will be the way to go though when/if I decide to get more of the potential out of my motor. Sounds like I could pull out the eBoost 2 and sell it on to get some of the cash back in my pocket.

The guys at Nistune have figured out the fan control stuff these days though too, so my Thermos are controlled by the ECU with new temperature switch values. I also wired in an override switch so that I can manually choose to turn them on whenever I want.

But yeah, MAF... ugh, just a PITA and always causes problems with BOVs and the like, more likely to cause detonation if you have something pop off and cause a big leak too.

Are you going to go to BDA3?

[ridemx21]

Possibly, when is it?
probably a good opportunity to get my driving up to scratch

[ae8zn6]

Late June me'thinks, entry forms aren't out yet though

[ridemx21]

The heavy duty clutch i was running started to give up so i bought a hhdb exedy clutch and picked up a blown rb25 box so have a play with while it was apart, seem too all fit in pretty well so ill look at rebuilding the box and replacing the 20 box in the future

[ae8zn6]

yeah, with the kind of numbers you are running you will likely need the bigger box... particularly with an aggressive clutch, but then again will also depend on the size tyres you are using and how aggressively you shift gears etc...


Does the bellhousing really clear?

In my car the bell is really the limiting factor by a long way, if I wanted to go to an rb25 box there would be a lot of cutting involved :S

its tight but will fit fine. moving the engine forward on the cross member has paid off a heap of times already.

[ridemx21]

put my new clutch in doesn't feel the best with a very high release point but im told these clutches can do weird things for the first 1000kms while they bed in so ill see how it goes

also had another couple of rockers break on me

http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/535183.jpg

had some hand brake issues so decided to strip the rear callipers down and do a quick clean and rebuild

and also found that the crank breather between the bottom end and the rocker cover is suppose to have a restricter in it so i pulled it out of the original pipe and put it in the new one

Went to order harder rear springs and this happened

Gone solid lifters now
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/540694.jpg
Procam 260 solid profile (slightly smaller than the bc264s i had)
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/540695.jpg
And a bigger map sensor
http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/1/5/1/6/8/540696.jpg
With some good results

wow i just read this from start to finish... good build man. has given me a few tricks for my build am going similar route (sr20det) very impressive mate.

[ridemx21]

For anyone interested this car is for sale,

[ae8zn6]

Did you ever end up fitting the 25 box?

Just interested to know how much further back the shifter would be compared to a SR bell on a 20 box...

[flower86]

Yea would also like to know how you went with the 25box ?
