HELLLLP t67 right on top of my bmc - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

((sr)) kelly · 07-04-2008, 03:04 PM

i made some shims today so maybe i can raise it up 1/4 inch on that side to help it get off the bmc.... i have nismo hard mounts.. do you think the engine will still hit all the way over there even tho it torques towards the intake side? doesnt it torque towards the intake side?? lol

Jtuned_andy · 07-04-2008, 03:12 PM

looks like that won't work at all

*1QUICK4* · 07-04-2008, 03:13 PM

It does torque to the intake side

((sr)) kelly · 07-04-2008, 03:19 PM

with shims and an engine damper i should be able to get it to work

((sr)) kelly · 07-04-2008, 03:45 PM

anyone???????????

Clowny · 07-04-2008, 04:22 PM

id also be worried about the heat comin off the turbo that close heatin up the brake fluid and then there goes your brakes. yikes.

Sileighty_85 · 07-04-2008, 04:29 PM

Cut and re-weld manifold accordingly

gotta240 · 07-04-2008, 04:32 PM

GOOD LUCK stopping!

*downshift_sideways* · 07-04-2008, 04:35 PM

Might want to re-adjust that fitment.

Or super wrap your brake reservoir.

If the shims can sit it a bit higher, you should be okay, but you'd have to install it and boost it to see the flex.

((sr)) kelly · 07-04-2008, 09:54 PM

yeh im going to wrap it..

but you guys do know they sell racing break fluid that wont boil over right.... its 80 bucks a quart

burnsauto · 07-04-2008, 10:03 PM

hows that "awesome manifold design" working out for you

but on a serious note kelly, invest in a turbo blanket for that thing.

Team DET · 07-04-2008, 10:17 PM

time to make it rhd lol

DOT 5?

The rubber in the BMC is still going to melt no mater what magic fluid you use.

They sell spacers that have an angle cut in them. Almost like a wedge. So you can angle it more.

Clowny · 07-04-2008, 10:53 PM

/\/\ what he said. dot5 brake fluid hasa higher boil point yes, but its not totally boil resistant. and that turbo will heat it up high enough. plus there are the rubber seals as the above poster mentioned, and the resevoir made of plastic that will melt. be careful dude.

((sr)) kelly · 07-04-2008, 11:03 PM

problem solved...i made my own spacers... i got a 5/8s thick washer and gut a slit in it so it would slide though the lowe engine bolt...

i jacked the other side of the motor up to see if it woul reach back to the bmc.. and it didnt even budge.. i love nismo hard mounts

the brake fluid is actually dot 5.1... and im getting gold film and a turbo blanket so i should be straight.... thanks guys!!!

((sr)) kelly · 07-04-2008, 11:40 PM

depends on how much give your motor mounts have.. im sure itll be fine tho... if anything get a engine damper

*downshift_sideways* · 07-04-2008, 11:41 PM

thats not bad..That will work.

You might want to think about getting a shield around the brake resevoir alone. Just a few simple bends will help reflect heat..that plastic WILL melt.

ROIDMONKEY · 07-04-2008, 11:43 PM

You need a heat shield like the megan racing type. other wise u gonna melt the brake fluid container. happened to my friend , believe me, like this one

projectdrifter · 07-04-2008, 11:44 PM

it was never that close on my s14. and i ran a turbo blanket.

((sr)) kelly · 07-04-2008, 11:50 PM

im getting a turbo blanket.. so itll look pretty bahahahah
