The Racetractor. The End.

[Piggy]

205 STDT rad would work. All the connections are the same size (or near enough) and they're twice as thick as a gti rad

it's thicker...but it is smaller in dimensions. 

I'll be ordering the 200sx rad tomorrow after measuring it up today

Had some tinker time today...

Took intake pipe off to take starter solenoid off...which went well and no starting issues now...but I found this...

Basically little pools of gearbox oil. So my leak was not from the n/s shaft seal. Appears to be from the breather as it hasnt flicked from or to anywhere. very odd  Open to ideas, but only one can come up with is over filled, so I am draining it dry and measuring what I get.

next up was o/s driveshaft...

dead. very dead. not smelt something so bad for quite some time. Annoyingly my spare is a different length with different sized bearings. So have to order a new one. doh.

My oil catch system is too restrictive I think and was causing some back pressure...so temp measure...

And finally found out why the new replacement EGt gauge stopped working...

Been like that since the wednesday before FCS! Would explain the high pitch whistle at full boost, I just assumed one of my bad welds again! Thankfully found a new olive in my bits n bobs drawer.

So need to order new shaft and hope that the gearbox was simply a little overfilled.



Tomorrow also ordering:

Rebuilt rear axle tube
200SX rad + pipe
Some more lexan for some window sliders
Paint for FG bonnet which SHOULD arrive early this week!
