    I had the same idea a while back. I decided against it because it costs about 4k. Why do you want a manual anyway? Get a shift kit and valve body beef up. supposed to handle 300rwkw. Autos all the way buddy. Boost holds better in a straight line aslo.

    What color wires do you have for knock 1+2 , when i did mine r33 S2 i had a clear colour sheeth for both knock sensors. i checked it 3 times but no reading at all. i just gave up in the end, when you get it going let me know what color wire you found it to be.

    I have the same car and it sounds like you have the same problem I had. Get some splitfire coil packs. fixed my missfire on idle and also no more backfire at 4500 rpm. The old ones will be shorting through the plastic jacket.

    I would leak test the system first mate. Its illegal in this country to simply re gas refrigeration equipment. If it lost its charge there must be a leak. Get the job done properly and make sure they leak test the system. The figure you mentioned about charge weight sounds about right. You should be looking at a coil TD of around 10 'C across your evaporator coil.

    I fitted splitfires to my R33 yesterday, i can run higher boost now without the flat spots at 4500 rpm now it revs all the way to 7000 without a cough n fart. I have also been using NGK bcpr6 copper plugs at 0.8 gap. I found that all the stock coilpacks were shorting through the plastic jacket, you could see the burn marks obviously. Its just a pitty splitfires are so stuffen exspensive.

    The best way to do this is as follows. Steel your grandpas blood pressure monitor cut off the squeeze pump at the end. Get yourself a boost guage with a psi range, tee it into line with a tee fitting and connect your control to the other end of the tee. Set the control mid range, squeeze the pump gently and keep an eye on the guage when you hear it let go check the guage this is your boost pressure.

    I used my pneumatic guage and squieze pump. The turbotech was opening at 9 psi straight into the wastegate actuator. Best way to carry out this simple test by far.

    Is it 114.3 7.5x17 does anyone know?

    Just unbolt the rack its quicker than doin each coil pack, you have less chance of crossing a cylinder. Down gap to 0.8 use NGK bcpr6es they are ok for about 4 bucks ea. Leave BOV on intake pipe undo hose fittings only. Also remove your cross bar if you have one.

    its probably just some religious dude under the bonnet causing the knock.
  22. crofte

  23. crofte
