  1. I have a very similar setup. Nismo 555cc injectors and a K&N pod being the only notable differences. What AFR and what sort of timing are you running around the top end (if you have that information handy)
  2. Highest number I've seen. I only managed 325rwhp on mine. This is about the average from what I've heard. Can you list your setup? Interested to see if there's a difference
  3. It's a sign that youre either overworking your charging system or have an alternator on the way out Neither are a good thing
  4. Im keen whenever.....
  5. Not true, my battery has gone flat about 3 times in the last year and is still fine. Only a cheap compliance battery as well....
  6. Finally gonna do some work?
  7. Well I have a hand controller as well....... lol Just mine isnt for sale right now like yours would be
  8. I may have a power FC for sale soon...... I did all my supporting mods first (pretty much the stuff ben just said) then all I had to do was bolt on a turbo, get new injectors and a tune and was all ready to go Some people like doing it all at once No right or wrong way just depends on budget and time constraints But as I said I may have a power fc and Z32 AFM for sale in the next 2 months
  9. before pulling the starter motor out: Check your battery voltage, both just sitting with everything off (Should be about 12.6V or so) and then during cranking (shouldnt drop below 9v from memory, even 9v I think is getting to low) if this checks out, put the car in gear and roll it back or forward a bit (the gear for the starter might be jammed against the ring gear. But if this fails then I'd say it would be the starter motor as suggested
  10. Damn nearly forgot how nice this car was till you put the "before" shot up Ill give you a txt on the weekend might come look at some bits
  11. I think better quality fuel in Japan has a lot to do with it.
  12. The problem I think with the GT2835 KAI is with the anti surge slots. Stao from Hypergear PM'ed me about it and after explaining to me the theory behind the anti surge slots and how it could affect the power etc, I thought I would try a cheap fix for now so I came up with this: Now after I put this on the car went pretty fuely under boost, i expected it to go lean if I'm honest but anyway. I spent about an hour tuning the AFR's to be a bit better (still a bit on the safe side but dont want to push it to hard yet) and played with maybe 2 or 3 cells of timing (under load) I have knock sensor issues ATM which is why I havent added timing in. They give rediculous readings and I never hear a hint of pinging from the engine. Anyway, Conclusion from the front swapover - The turbo seems to boost a bit smoother (if that makes sense), drive better, I dont have the "surge" issue I was talking about anymore, and I managed a faster 1/4 mile time and MPH last time I went for a race. (13.0 @110MPH, although I think its easily got a 12 in it if I get a bit more practice) I managed 245rwkw with the old front, I'm waiting till I have some time to throw it on a dyno again to see if the front has netted some improvement to the power but from the feel of the thing I'd say it is better. Also the front is not sealed from the rest of the turbo. So I assume the high pressure from the anti surge slots that are now blocked may be leaking to the outside of the turbo(not to mention the possibility that this is causing turbuelence) As I said however, This is a cheap fix and if it nets a power gain I'll be getting a proper front housing for it without the anti surge slots, A Pro S housing would be ideal
  13. SF DIS-0001 or something is the spitfire number I think. Go on the nengun site and have a look it will tell you which one you need. Please note there is a difference between R33 Series 1, R33 series 2 and R34 RB25 coilpacks
  14. Cam Angle Sensor: used to determine where TDC of each cylinder so the engine can inject fuel and power the spark plugs Can also be Crank angle sensor getting the measurement from the crankshaft is some engines In RB series engines it is the silver thing on the timing cover (exhaust side)
  15. Yeah? I thought they were ball bearing as well..... Pretty sure 32 GTST turbos are ball bearing but...... happy to be proved wrong lol
  16. Ferrari 599 GTO just looks so right in black..... I dont think red suits the 599 as well as some of the other colours The F40 is an amazing car, but the front bugs me. For its time period but, its still a nice car
  17. What were the issues with fitment to the Greddy plenum? I just found these the other day on another site and was thinking of getting one...... Figured the holes would line up, is the rail to bulky?
  18. No more wiring running everywhere: Number plate moved:
  19. Practiced some light painting on friday night. Was alright for my first try until someone pointed out the shadow in front of the car....... Rookie mistake haha anyway: EDIT: Also I'll put up a photo of NUR33's N1 R32 From the other weekend. That thing is tough as, more photos/info in his build thread in the Projects section
  20. First car, at least it had an RB Put a rebuilt engine in with a slightly bigger then stock Cam, Painted engine bay + Engine. Was nice, fairly proud of it, but the Skyline is nicer to drive, faster, more reliable and looks alot better
  21. Pretty sure they are ball bearing
  22. Better off trying to pin-point the engine rather then the truck as alot of trucks have options of engines. Being Holset it probably came off a Cummins engine
  23. Had a bit of a play with light painting in some photos last night. GF got her new car so it was the test subject haha
