oh what a nissan feeling! Posted February 15, 2008 Author Report Posted February 15, 2008 Yeh, ive done a bit of searching as well, found nothing much, except that theyre damn old. probably not too difficult, as its already wired to suit a 12a, so i think i will just get a diagram for that and cross reference it over, she'll be right Quote

oh what a nissan feeling! Posted April 29, 2008 Author Report Posted April 29, 2008 I get my licence back in 2 weeks, so i drove the old beast out of the shed to get her cleaned up for rego again. The problem is, i didnt realize exactly how stuffed the auto was :rocknroll: even after the oil top up, it got stuck attempting to get up the driveway, and started to roll backwards..... Sooo ive been tracking down some trimatic parts to do the conversion to 3spd, with my 5k. Much thanks to Corollaandy for the trimatic, and I'm underway. This is my assistant elf......hes getting old...... out she comes Too small even for a boat anchor.... Scrubbed the engine bay with some sugar soap, so now, after a quick sand shes ready for some paint. Have worked out a real easy way to do the efi pump setup too- but thats tomorrow. :jamie: Quote
JiP Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 Your car is looking sooo good. Loving the work. J. Quote
ScottKE1X Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 You love to paint... don't you? might as well, seem to be good at it. is that engine bay gonna get the treatment now too?? Nice work! Quote
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted April 30, 2008 Author Report Posted April 30, 2008 I don't really love to paint :jamie: I like mechanical a whole lot more, its just the results that keep me going.... I spent 3 weeks on one rear quarter on the ke30 :rocknroll: i have no skills...... just persistence. anyways, yeh i am painting under the hood before the new donk goes in, so it should look nice in blue. I have a deadline to get all this together to drive for when my licence returns, so i have to get my crap together, or else i have to ride the zx10 to work in the freezing cold :y: Better get cracking......

PMP020 Posted April 30, 2008 Report Posted April 30, 2008 * add motivational thing here * u don't need motivation, ur a machine. just get it done :rocknroll: cheers, scott Quote
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted May 2, 2008 Author Report Posted May 2, 2008 :cool: no worries! I got the engine bay painted today, Just got to put all the junk back in now, Also hooked a bit of power up to the 'super advanced microtech ds4' today too, from what i can tell it seems its might work, which is promising..... I got my fuel system finished too, i just mounted a hose fitting into the drain hole of the tank, and mounted the high pressure pump and filter under the car near the wheel well. Its just gravity fed to the high pressure pump, will add a surge tank if i need it, but i don't think i will. Here is my fittting in the drain hole.. No pics of the pump underneath, i should have took them before i let the car down again. These early rollas are cool too, cos they already have 8mm metal fuel lines! From memory the old ke30 had tiny little fuel lines, so thats a bonus. ;) Quote
PHATKE20S Posted May 2, 2008 Report Posted May 2, 2008 I got the engine bay painted today, AWESOME that is all that needs to be said ;) :dance: :dance: P.S. You're an inspiration to us all :cool: Quote
radrollaz Posted May 2, 2008 Report Posted May 2, 2008 Love your work matt, keep those pics coming :cool: Quote
