Hi Everyone!

Oky so This weekend we got the motor in, with so much trouble, made alot of noob mistakes.

But the only thing that matters is that it is in, I have too do a few small "shit" jobs, then hopefully I can start it the weekend.

list that needs to be done:

Fuel lines.
Wiring (aka plugging everything in

)
down pipe and exhaust finding each other in the dark mists of the car to be together for all eternity.
sifter needs to be put back correctly.
fiscus van.
FMIC.
Battery.
checking fluids.
Prop shaft.

Not hectic, but will keep me busy for a while!

In moet hy in, al huil ons altwee vanaand!"

I can honestly say that I enjoyed working on the car... Its a bit awkward, but you get the job done eventually...

Whats wrong with the fuel lines buddy?

Oky so this weekend was productive and not at the same time...

I wanted the User manual to verify if all the wires was correct (dont trust my own judgment if it comes too wiring) SO pulled out my laptop, and my windows installation is screwed, search for my windows CD, no where to be found.... not nice.

So I did the best I could, The only thing that needs to be done is the injector sensors, and the FPR, and to put my std IC back

, Then I can start it this weekend!

I have a little surprise with my "Old" CA, First have to meet with some professionals, then I will be able to verify if I am gona do it or not! But the power rebuild is still on with that!

Lol, oky, so I have driven my car nou for the weekend, had some radiator issues, we did a temporary fix, but will get a upgraded radiator soon, next on the list:

Warlbro Fuel pump.
Fitting the FMIC.
Thick core radiator.
Boost, water temp, oil temp and oil pressure guages.
Dropping viscus fan and going electric.

Well thats on the reliability side, performance is kind of a secret, so is the cosmetics

So ja when i drove it the first time, the turbo started to spool on 2500RPM and was on full boost (1 bar

) at 3000RPM, had no fuel starvation what so ever, and it was, whats the word for it... um awesome! lol.

Yesterday i had some fuel starvation and it just became worse, and if its idling and i ref it, the pressure drop, so Charl suspect the feul pump is shot, hence the warlbro.

more updates will soon follow

Oky so I have done some small jobs:

new lights:

new radiator:

new against old:

and my sound is in!

And just 2 new Photo`s of the White elephant:

and for a nice Datsun fan:

So I have worked out my budget at last! For everything on the car to be done like I want it! So now the real work will begin, Will be showing off at the year end function a bit hehe. Just joking!

But like I am feeling now, I have to make a choice on the "power motor".

I will be doing a swop in the near future, but have to decide on what still. But is between 2 motors!hehe

The BEHR radiator cores are some of the most efficient cores known to man.

Please use a SR20DET

djtreble · Post by **djtreble** » Tue Aug 10, 2010 10:43 am

The sr rad's inlets are on the opposite sides to that one

Got it from a Silverton Radiator shop, Cost R1,111.50. Made for Nissan Sentra STI, code AARA-3200212.

Only thing, the bottom pipe is on the other side, but not an issue, just some plumbing hehe, but a nice upgrade
