I'm on a 457 so discussing it with work. Until then I need to keep a reasonable cash reserve.
Not much news.
Serviced the car.
Had boost leaks again, joys of turbo car ownership.
Huge T-Bolt clamps, wont leak now. (may have overdone it but it makes me feel better)
ECU back from repair from Haltech so should get a chance to start wiring again.
Also fixed the speakers in the car so I now have a fully working set wired properly.
RB swap still on hold, but i signed up for a welding course to keep myself happy.
Went drag racing:
Broke turbo now have a T28r
Wired in knock alarm
Also heat shrink and soldered all the radio wiring the last owner bodged.
Fingure crossed its the turbo and not more or im in trouble.
Would you sell your RB25 part collection?
Won't sell it as I am still going to do the swap just when things stables visa wise.
Until then the sr will be my learning platform. Where I can make mistakes

457 nice. So what are trying to sort out now 186 or a renewal of the 457.
Have you kept a list of the different things you've fixed since the last owner??! You must be up for an award for S-body resurrection at this stage!

Update time:
So I have been continuing to collect bits and getting close but still have some way to go.
Birthday present:
Maintenance:
Leaking banjo is a pain
So as it is a modified car nothing is done right.
In order to stop the battery relocation to the boot burning the car to the ground i rang an auto electrician to fit a breaker as i don't want industrial crimping tools.
I didnt have a spare key so now I have a consolt usb adapter to code keys and diagnose problems.
Swapped the fuel pump, nervous about that job.
Had an aftermarket pump but was crimped badly, had been putting this off for a while as I didn't want to set myself on fire.
The high flow pump then caused the fuel lines in the engine bay to piss fuel so they got replaced on a Monday morning.
I learned to Mig and stick weld in an evening course. Something I needed to learn. Need a bit more practice.
My birthday present to myself Defi Din Gauges. Wont be fitted till RB
Other:
Conversion wiring harness ordered. For RB25 NEO.
No going back now.
AN10 Braided Hoses and fittings ordered for oil cooler and catch can hose looks like its about to melt so, swap before fire. Will look better two.
Braided Brake lines ordered and R33 braided clutch lines for conversion.
Rocker cover gasket for Sr20 is leaking so that is on order two.
On the hunt for a R34 flywheel next, but that's my parts budget spent for this month.
Car is driving spotlessly now.

3. Engine

The plan is to order a twin scroll divided T3 .78

Had some garden hose looking stuff as vac line for the catch can.
It was a little melted and leaking vacuum. So i overdid it and now it wont leak.

Not bad for 10PSI on a stock map
Pulled the car apart to do the manifold gasket.
Went great until I tried to refit the oil feed for the turbo.
Threads gone have orded a time cert and a set of flexy lines.
Car is off the road for a week.
Suppose I'm getting what I asked for when I wanted to learn. I spend more time fixing than modding.

Job done over a three day weekend.
7 layer updated Manifold gasket.
Copper Gasket used on the gaskets
Silicone gasket maker used on the cold side turbo gaskets.
Had to cut a nut off (pun intended)
Threaded insert in block using the re-tap time-sert kit.
Used axle grease and heavy duty magnet to pull as much swaf out as possible.
Dump pipe gasket is leaking but that's a quick fix tonight when I have light.
No leaks, oil changed as well, so should be good for a couple of months before the motor comes out.
Haltech e11V2 rb25 Neo Loom.
I'm out of items i can buy and store at this stage before getting a shed.
Waiting on finding a new place to live now.
Ill get some slim pusher fans and be done until i'm in the new place.
