See the blue plate on the second pic its just round to the left of that, the pressure switch itself is laying just in front of the sandwich plate, I'll get a better pic if you want though.

Would be helpful if you could,
There you go gerry, hope this helps.
Glad to see ur starting to do some things again! I'm overloaded with mine atm looking like this!
Look similar on the other sode too!
its fixable matei made a plate up and bought a piece of tube cut a hole in the panel and welded it half way through to save a cooler pipe constantly moving in it.
Ye have seen that being done need to figure out where they will go through to weld the tubes in
Many thanks for taking the time.
Gerry.
shes slowly taking shape, hoping to have the engine back in for the beginning of April fingers crossed. Bought a set of supertech valve seals so fitted them today also cleaned and bled the lifters. waiting on valve springs and a head gasket now.
Got my Brian Crower valve springs so fitted them today just basically needing to get my head gasket sorted out and thats the engine ready to go together and back in! still thinking of going with the Cosworth 1.5mm.
Time is getting limited as the sun came out the other day and now everyone wants their bikes serviced/repaired so ill need to see to them first as they are in the garage and my car is outside
I've just bought a set of those springs and got a cosworth 1.5mm head gasket a while back they seem very good quality and got discount as I bought from japspeed and turned up day after!
i might get on to japspeed then, cheers bud
Here are the photos of the progress
difference between the springs, stock on the right.
HLA's all bled up and fitted along with springs and rockers
All the other stuff thats holding me back
Maybe holding u back but does this not create funds to spent on the Sx!?!?
Oh and ye think it's around £10 u get of the price for being a member on japspeed
yeah but it means my cars got to sit outside next to the old 4x4
great build there, must make you feel good when you see the car progress, good to see you take your time and do things right with proper parts, great painting skills, i need to finish the bodywork on mine next, plenty of filler me thinks.
cheers mate, i hope it keeps going the same way without any issues. it'll get thereOriginally Posted by ex-ctr
Gasket arrived....eventually ordered it last sunday! arrived today
So wasted no time and got it fitted, almost time to get it back in the car i really cant wait! busy couple of weekends coming up though! so might be a wee while
Tonight i got the exhaust side all on just waiting on inlet gaskets and plugs then thats it.
like a plonker i spent a while looking for the top chain guide in the head, i never knew that Nissan stopped fitting these after 98.

Well this weekend has been a bit productive, engine back in and got the majority of it back together. waiting on a radiator coming and should be able to fire it up.
Radiator arrived today, so i spent tonight hooking everything else up. left the cooler hoses off as il crank it over and make sure theres plenty of oil flow to the filter, and then the head before i actually run it. all im waiting on is oil now and should be here tomorrow or friday.
So hopefully the next update will be good news
Good news!
took it out for the first time today, around 4 miles up a back road but was good to be back on the road again
its a little rough on idle, still to put a cross in the inlet by the afm to help that hopefully, a blow from the flexi on the downpipe and a healthy dose of vvt which is annoying to say the least. it never had it until it ran low on oil on the way to Horsham last time, since then it has rattled at idle it seems noisier than before altho hard to say as it was so long ago.
wondering if the stronger valve springs are possibly to blame for that
