  1. Your Nismo ecu. With the stock one in place it runs fine yes? Time to stop stuffing around and Emanage the thing.
  2. Hesitation usually signifies lean running, which can damage your engine. Don't worry, I have a spare VQ25det here.
  3. At least I am safe.
  4. Greddy thermostat adapter, Torques UK nylon braided lines and fittings and a large Vulture Motorsport cooler, with a 14 inch thermo fan strapped to the back.
  5. I made 250kw on my old Sierra s1 highflow, and over 300 swapping to ethanol. There should be another 40-50kw in the GTRS if the tune is pushed, and with the amount of second hand injectors floating about he could probably convert for bugger all. Saying that, I sell Walbro 255's for $100, or VDO pumps are even cheaper at around $70. Both should get there flow wise. You can get Siemens injectors pretty cheap these days... The main cost is in the tune, but that is inevitable when chasing power. A larger turbo is not going to feel as good on the street and is going to cost heaps more.
  6. Turn their nose up at Fcon. lol. Might want to revisit this if you already have the Fcon, you can get english Fcon Vpro software for certain versions if you have a search around, it works very well in my Stagea... Just no online support so you need a good tuner, which sounds like it may be a problem. We need pics of your turbo to help. Otherwise, go with the Hypergear, proven performer.
  7. What is so hard to work out? Tim laid it out for you on a platter didn't he? Quote.

  8. I heard similar Mick, and seeing Holden have dropped e85... I guess there is no industry left to support.
  9. Because Osirus only works on VQ35's.
  10. It's a bit pointless, especially when it reads 40kph out like my Nismo when it's pinned, but it's the only speedo I have to judge anything by for braking at the track. The Informeter doesn't see past 179kph due to the speed cut defender tricking the ecu. Shame as it stays very accurate.
  11. Like tomorrow?
  12. It obviously works well in Brazil. Perhaps we should send some politicians there for a taxpayer funded holiday... Hopefully they would learn a thing or two about sustainable ethanol production. I can only see a green party member even giving a toss about the subject, and they would rather we were all riding pushies.
  13. To some extent. The codes should be similar, and the manual flashing MIL process is the same, but it should only be used in emergencies imo. It doesn't dispense with the need for a consult3 unit, just helps if you are stranded without access to a dealership I guess. The flashing MIL only picks up the engine fault codes. The other 6 computers are ignored.
  14. And your oil will take half an hour to warm up.
  15. So we should kill an entire renewable fuel source because it has a bad name, and has been managed and controlled poorly, mostly by oil companies that want it to die anyway? Still comes back to government incompetence imo...
  16. I have never seen a turbo timer wired to a park brake before, and it wouldn't help much in the event of an accident now would it. As above I would get it removed professionally. There is no need for a turbo timer on a water cooled turbo.
  17. Agreed. Vic section is that way ^ Hopefully your first post is legit, not just pushing one of your products... Owners of GTR's would usually have a higher post count as they constantly need repair. I was interested enough to google the company and didn't find much info.
  18. Exactly, but with no profit margin that innovative design won't happen. Using electricity to process the ethanol is a waste when it can be done much cheaper utilising solar stills and other renewables. As this would require new technology and massive refineries it won't happen unless there is greater incentive, which the government would have to push. I use ethanol for many reasons, the least of which is engine power.
  19. We can only import the turbo M35's, luckily they are the best bang for buck power wise. The direct injection motors have much better economy, but they also need extensive internal engine cleaning regularly due to their EGR and direct injection design, plus the power is fairly low for such a heavy car. I would probably go for the 3.5na if you want long term reliability.
  20. I have your cooler hoses, fittings and that Greddy thermostat adapter here Tony, when are you going to buy that super oil cooler core you are raving about? Track days coming....
  21. I do want Nistune, but they only make it for old cars worth less than my turbo.
  22. I can probably count on my hand the amount of manifolds in Melbourne that have been externally gated, perhaps you might find a stock wrecker manifold around and find a good fabricator to modify it, but these manifolds are getting harder and harder to find as they start cracking and warping. Hopefully you don't have too much drama finding a good one and keeping it that way after extensive modification. You know I can externally gate the turbo housing for you instead right? Cheaper and much easier to get a good result imo.
  23. Just remember, completely different setup above, no clutch fan and the shroud has thermo's instead. I don't think you can compare it to the NM35 for ease of fitment. I would want to fit one before saying it was drop in, as all the aftermarket radiators I have fitted haven't been.
  24. You are in NZ? I guess considering a complied car here is going for 8k, you are looking at a 4-6k car? And you are worried about it's longevity and service history? These engines are built and designed fairly well considering it's a French design. Could have been much worse in that department. Most Nissan turbo engines are built stout, and the VQ25det is no exception. I am pushing 3 times the wheel KW on a stock engine. Try 30psi force fed into a 202 Holden 6 and see how far you get around a track. There is no set amount of K's the turbo will explode, although I think Nissan recommend 100,000k replacement. Many have gone much further. A simple $800 highflow service should give it another 100,000k's, the hassle is getting to the turbo, it's in an awkward spot to say the least. Parts aren't a problem for me, I have my second wreck in the driveway.
  25. Ethanol has a set price in the market place, it is based on some Singapore fuel index. Unfortunately there is also a large government excise on it now, so it doesn't make the profit margins it should. Quite often I find I am paying nearly as much for ethanol as 91, which considering the energy density is wrong on all levels. As a 'green' energy source it is being shat on imo, we have the chance to make a carbon neutral fuel from rubbish essentially, it's something the "carbon tax' should have been helping prop up, not silly solar schemes. Instead Ethanol and LPG have been lumped with the excise, meaning these greener fuels just can't compete.
