Don't worry, won't be long till @Old man 32 GTR puts in a RB34 with a Samsonas

Poor Fuel Economy on RB25DE
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to _scott's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Correct, try unplug the idle plugs, unplug the TPS and adjust the idle screw till it idles just a tad under the target RPM. At the same time, you might as well check your base timing and also set your TPS. (All the above is complete waste of time on an aftermarket ECU as you can offset the lot, except when there's too much air allowed through the IACV). -

Try closing up your IACV a bit, could be now there's too much air being bled back via the IACV and your factory ECU is shaving timing to keep the idle at target. This is why I love DBW, you piss off the IACV and AAC air leaks. -
MLR's Bogan cruise ship
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to The Bogan's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
In theory I know how to set it up, and know how to adapt different strategies to manage torque such as reduce timing on wheel slip (and ramp the time retard as wheel slip % increases), and/or apply the same on the DBW throttle body as wheel slip increases you decrease the max amount the throttle can open. For boost applications you can even trim duty cycle etc. Then all of that you can even throw on-top random cylinder cuts to reduce large amounts of torque. I'm planning to install either a front wheel speed sensor OR (lazy way out) a GPS sensor and calculate slip % then apply whatever strategy above works most effectively and efficiently. Just avoiding the full cut traction strategy of boring A to B OEMs. -

Wot, damn... Money they couldn't resist I suppose. -
Slow 180sx VQ30DETT
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to 30ed32's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
I'm guilty too, I whinge and whinge but the heap of shit is still parked in the garage with a felt car cover and a CTEK on it 😅 -

My apologies @GTSBoy, won't happen again! -

Slow 180sx VQ30DETT
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to 30ed32's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
You sound like every other jaded and cynical Nissan owner, this is why a M2/3/4/5 makes so much sense. Throw on semi slicks and you'll carve out sensational lap times with a chai latte in one hand, classical music on and climate control regulating your race environment. My car is finally kind of done, and I don't want to even drive it now. In 3x months I've driven it 5 times, shit box. -

Man what is with these Nissans? All they do is rob you of time and money lol -
Took months to sort this out, just time/motivation/priorities but managed to replace the stuffed Haltech/Ti Automotive 10bar pressure sensor with an EFI Solutions 10bar stainless steel sensor. Hopefully it lasts longer than the previous one? I was going to replace the faulty sensor with a Bosch item, however interwebs users reckon the diaphragm dies and you'll have fluid pissing out of the connector. Wasn't keen on seeing an oil fountain so just replaced with something similar with the same connector. Sensor check appears good now, also decided to stuff about with the Ignition Zero Demand table to give the car more street credit at the lights, will start it up on the weekend and record a video to prove I'm cool with braps lol.

This would be a great temporary, temporary permanent work around until your new gasket comes. -
Hose for turbo water line
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to Duncan's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
You know me Duncan, OEM++ methodology now 😊 not to mention the amount of times I've had things melt off/blown off/explode. I borrowed the bender and flare tool from my mate who runs Yez Racing. Took a bit of time and wastage to get there but did it in the end. The oil drain was too hard at the time but it seems you can adapt oil drains from turbo charged heavy machinery onto the turbo. Job for next time. -

Depending on your level of boredom, you could make hard lines. I did this on the shit box when my position was made redundant at my previous work. Extra money and time 😂 -
Then Artec brings out a full cast manifold with no welds. Game changer, I'm waiting for their twin scroll single gate RB manifold and maybe I will donate more money to the Skyline gods/vortex/debt collector

GTR I just got one!
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to Old man 32 GTR's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
Blame Murica, they're too busy doing twin turbos on everything they can find. And from an educated guess, they're the world's greatest consumers of turbos and soon RBs lol. -

Do you have access to a smoke tester? The one that has a pump and can add a bit of positive pressure to things? Good way to find leaks
