Thanks for that IanH, I'm a big fan of your site - what got me started on mine Good to know that the injector situation is not limited. As for the AFM, I won't be using one with the new ECU Dyno Graphs going up soon... be prepared for 16:1 A/F ratios

I was referring to "happygabby" - I think you should be the one reading and doing some thinking. If someone were to offer you $185; would YOU take $165?

Guys please don't post up obviously stupid offers... I've personally seen this gear and it's in top nick, I'm all into the electronic gadget scene and I was very impressed at what he could do with the HDD. Never pay for PSP games again

No such thing as old Peter; only older.... can't wait to see that 32 of yours in action - sounds like it's gonna be a monster Cheers for the talk as well - very exciting and influential! I might give Hitman a call regarding getting the whole setup from them!

Wow, don't even need to answer my questions Thanks guys, I'm currently looking into my injector options, doesn't look like there's too many at all

PM Received and replied... rims are now on hold

Thanks Robbie

I've been advised not to go near hi-flowing the standard injectors as there is no guarantee that the spray patterns etc. will be the same Better not to take the risk and spend some money on getting proper parts.

Show-off

Well in that case I think the 550cc injectors will have to do... The Haltech can be wired up to replace all signals to the factory ECU except the auto gearbox signal. This means it's pretty much a stand-alone whilst maintaining the gear shift logic. Cheers mate... BTW: anyone got a link to the 550cc injectors?

Latest Update after Tuning Well I took the car to Hitman - Injection Tuning on Saturday morning to get the current setup tuned to the optimum output (pure power tune, not economy or anything). Just wanted to see what type of numbers we could reach just from latest round of goodies. If you want to see what we have put in, click on my signature photo and go to the Modifications page on my site. Initial base run on the dyno came out at 166rwkw with A/F Ratios at 16:1!!! Yes, very dangerous levels indeed - much too lean! This shocked not only the tuner, but also me and my mechanic as the previous tune had the A/F ratios set to a straight 12.5:1 This goes to show the following: 1) The new setup has drastically changed the car and knocked it out of tune big time. 2) There is a massive difference between the amount of air flowing from the old turbo setup to the new turbo setup (new one flows almost 250% more). 3) Hub Dynoes are "very happy" and the reading from the last tune (194.6rwkw) can now be disregarded. Anyways, next run was done with no SAFC2 interaction - all settings to ZERO. The outcome was 182rwkw! Yes that is right, a major increase just from turning the computer off. That is to say that the SAFC2 was actually doing my car more harm than good when we first drove in. Again this was very very surprising and at the same time kind of unsettling! The next step was to engage the SAFC2 and re-map the A/F ratios based on this run. All the settings on the SAFC2 were revised by Hitman and fine tuned until we hit 189rwkw - this was still at 9.5psi of boost. Once the tune was all settled, we tried to up the boost... the absolute max we could crank it up to was 11psi, anymore than that and the factory protection systems kick in and shut the car down We had come to a massive barrier. Basically it was explained that the new turbo is flowing that much air that it's completely off the scale when compared to the factory ECU readings hence the "rich and retard" protection kicking in so early. At 11psi of boost we were peaking at 198.2rwkw - on a hub dyno we would be looking at 233rwkw which would be the same ratio of increase if we had took it to the old tuner. When we asked him why he didn't play with the Air Flow Ratio on the SAFC, he said that he wouldn't go near it as it would knock a lot of the other settings out of line making the setup unstable ~ We had a look at the timing and found it to be 4degrees retarded (at 11) so we advanced it back towards the factory 15 mark and that alone produced a 2rwkw gain. A/F ratios were tuned to an average of 12.3 or 12.4:1 which is a little leaner than what we wanted but it'd still be ok for now. All 11psi is reached at about 1,800rpm which is bloody awesome - absolutely no lag at all There is power throughout all the gears and it is a very linear power curve. Things I need to do for the next tune (hopefully in a month or so): 1) Get bigger injectors - 750cc should do it 2) Haltech e11v2 with on-board boost control Total of $4k just for these two mods With these two items, and the current setup - it should see me happily get to 250rwkw (capped due to gearbox) but potentially 280rwkw (turbo at 100% efficiency range). At the moment we are running 0.74 bar of boost or 11psi. The efficiency range of this turbo is between 15psi and 22psi so there is much improvement to be had here End Note I'm going to take my session at Hitman as a learning experience; it shows that thorough research does pay off. Even though we were capped at 200rwkw this day, I did drive away with a much safer and better responding car. Besides, it gives me time to get used to the new power Gains for the day = 32.2rwkw A big round of applause to the Hitman crew for doing such a fine job and at a great price (even though we had connections there ). 2.5 hours of dyno time and VIP service - what more could you ask for Overall I am very happy as it feels like I've driven away with a brand new car - there is just so much more power and response readily available across the entire RPM range - damn the drive home was fun EDIT - Dyno Graphs Added: (apologies for the bad image - taken with camera )

LOL @ James (lingering) Legend01 - you have to be there to show me what your new goodies have done... nice chat with you @ Hitman btw! As for me, unless some act of god happens... I'm not going to be running any great numbers, I've already maxed out my current setup and need that Haltech to go anywhere further = GAY! Doesn't matter, at least there's only one thing needed to unlock that power! Oh well, at least I'll be able to average out both figures and see where the numbers lie for now. EDIT: I'll try post some results of my day at Hitman - Injection Tuning tomorrow once I have the graphs scanned in!

Can you send me a pic of this manifold you have... I might be interested in taking it off ya hands

The answer lies in the differences between interest rates of the two... Trust me, it is a reccomended way to finance heaps of stuff, not just cars.

Haha, James and his DIYing.... must show me all the work you've done next time Anyways, you've got my number... help is just a phone call away bro!

Dunno if it's been mentioned yet but it's definitely not fixed... I'm only getting some of the notification emails, not all... and yes all my subscriptions are immediate (excluding the whore thread) S

BUMP BUMP BUMP Also have a set of R34 GTT rims with rubber on them for sale... one rim has gutter rash (quote $110 to fix) and the others are in top nick. Chasing $600.00 for the set with rubber. Will not post as I'm pretty sure I'll have no time to package and send so pickup is the only option atm. Thanks Stan

Are you willing to seperate the screen and the DVD player? I'm only after the screen... Let me know...

Is that "snip the wire" technique on ALL skylines?

Is the screen fully motorized?

If you did not hear TURBOS then you did not see him This thing sounded like a 747 on STEROIDS!!!

LOL it's the weekly spot SATANIC post I personally spotted GTR134 (R34GTR) on George Street; and wait for it TURBOS (R34GTR N1Spec) - the 1000hp Skyline! Had quite an extensive chat, made a small proposal and watched him do a 10k launch right outside Harry's Cafe I'm in heaven... Oh correction, make that 1150hp +

Meh, manual-spaniel..... only a few more hours till I see the effects of my new setup I'll cap it at 240rwkw for now... don't want to fry my gearbox Hope to hell it ain't a happy dyno too... otherwise I'll look like a fool when I put it on the dyno at UAS on the 11th

Dude they go for $16 at any Sony store... Possibly even cheaper now since this price was in 2005?!?

That's another 34 What was your last reading E_Lu-SHuN ?
