I will do my best, I’m going to the car tomorrow for the weekend and hope to get it finished, then suspension setup and MOT, if all goes to plan will be a close call.

The only pipe I have seen recently on doing my engine there is the EGR vacuum pipe, turbo water pipe on that side is facing straight up. I have deleted all those pipes. It is a fiddly job but undoing some bits you can get your hand under the brake unit, if the metal pipe is broken you can take a pipe from the EGR directly, but very fiddly depends on your experience.

Shame good luck

Welcome to the club, Z looks very nice.

One of the ancillary belts is more likely can make a real noise.

I was 5 and on the Madden Voyage of the QE2 to New York.

New GKTech High Performance Engine Fan (60% More Air Flow) and adapter plate, I ordered from CPZ but overkill for my car. https://conceptzperformance.com/gktech-high-performance-engine-fan-60-more-air-flow-nissan-skyline-r32-r33-r34-240sx-s13-s14-s15-z32-300zx-clch-fanx_p_39497.php Adapter plate is arriving in a week so will post both when it arrives. £80 INC P&P

Found I had E3 & E4 on the PTU the wrong way round so fixed that, now running on all cylinders a bit lumpy but nice and quiet, that was the reason I pulled all the lifters to re build them. Tomorrow or today being past midnight, was my suspension day with Kent Motorsport then MOT, while running the engine there was an oil leak at the front, I had changed all the front seals and the crank one has started leaking when the engine is running, so at 10pm gave up, I needed to return my mums car, real shame so gutted so close to finishing. I will now rest for a few days and try again.

Been working hard on the car last few days, managed to get it started, I was surprised seeing all the wiring I did, no lifter noise, but it looks like cylinders 3 & 4 are not firing, plugs wet they are all new, all coil packs have power, so maybe I made a bad join on the PTU, will try again tomorrow too late now.

Good luck hope you can sort it.

I will put myself down for this. 1) Bigh (Howard) 2) Funkysi (Simon) 3) Chris 300 +family (Chris) 4) AndrewG 5) Richard (and Julia) 6) Markyb300 7) ianl 8) therealnips (hoping to get both cars there this year) 9) Bones28 (Tony)

Hi sorry I’m out can’t get the car finished and suspension set up now before next week and MOT is next Wednesday, I will need the weekend to get it done.

Welcome to the club, nice looking Z.

That was a back breaking day, I have delayed my brothers car going to the body shop till Thursday so I have till then, do or die. AGM? All wiring connectors finished, maybe ready to fire up by tomorrow night. Still no sign of my front bushes just hope they turn up.

I would not do it again getting to old for this. Point of no return

I went a very long time ago it was fantastic but so expensive, would love to go again one day.

Hi been working hard last few days trying to get finished for the AGM. Rear suspension together, I’m still waiting on a bush for the front. Most of engine back together and some wiring done, going to move PTU to under nose panel while I’m at it, being an S2 unit has the conversion loom, so I will cut old cracked connectors off and connect new type to existing loom. I am taking my brothers car in for some bodywork tomorrow and will be left without a car, so not sure how I will be able to travel to the garage to finish it in time.

Happy Birthday :happybday:

Yes it was a Gates belt.

Well my order came today expressed it. I had luckily added an OEM timing belt. Thanks Jimmer I can’t believe it, was easy to fit and gap stayed at 4mm, the other belt was tight when fitted that’s why I ordered both tensioner and belt. As people have said in the past OEM is the only way.

I have ordered one will try that first. Thanks

Oh well I just could not get the timing belt adjuster to stay at 4mm, it kept going to 2mm after two turns of the engine, so I have ordered a new one. I can get on with putting the suspension back together.

Happy Birthday :happybday:

That’s really crap sorry to hear that.
