  1. It depends if you get the external sensor harness, then it displays oil pressure, oil temp, boost pressure, wideband o2 analogue input as well as the usual (accurate) speed, timing, injector data through the OBD2 port.
  2. Because ethanol.
  3. I had a similar issue a couple of years ago, wastegate line popped off and it ran 3bar+ for a few days (no idea how much as that was the sensor's limit.) It caused the head bolts to stretch and split the head gasket. Still no det, just masses of torque.
  4. I haz no build thread... Someone sledge me via PM please, I feel left out.
  5. The informeter tells me I hit 2.86 bar between shifts, when the auto fails to find the next gear in time for the soft limit. Generally 30psi pulls fairly solidly though. Stock VQ25det FTW.
  6. Glad you're happy Abz, I was actually surprised how quiet the system ended up being, for two straight 3 inch mufflers. That should keep you out of trouble with the epa, if the rumors are true they will be cracking down in December with mobile detection setups.
  7. The reason thin walled china manifolds crack is due to expansion, they would crack just as easily if purged imo. If the manifold flange is split and the turbo/exhaust weight is carried by a well designed bracket of some sort, the manifolds would probably last for years (on road cars at least.) I only purge exhaust pipes when the die grinder can't get to the back of the weld, this isn't food grade exhaust I am working on, and at $300 a bottle of argon I'm not going to waste it back purging unless I need to. I have never had any dump pipes or exhaust returned from weld failure either, track cars included. One thing i can say, I definitely prefer to weld thin wall (1mm or thinner) while back purging as I am much less likely to blow holes and can crank much more current in. No doubt it is stronger, but this isn't a structural item we are talking about. Perhaps you get better pricing on Argon through your work Mick?
  8. Twin liquid injection solenoids per runner will fix that. I also have some highflowed liquid solenoids to fit into an M35 Stagea soon, as the stock ones maxed at 250kw, pretty easy to work out that 4 of the stock ones will max out pretty quick.
  9. It doesn't sound like dose Johnny, as the boost is so low and the intake pipe so long. The noise repeats every second or so, sounds quite different to anything else I have heard. The owner will probably end up running a venting BOV somewhere else, perhaps under the car and into a muffler of some kind was my suggestion, for the stealth.
  10. Nissan? Passenger side: 13270-AL612 Drivers side: 13270-AQ800
  11. There's a lot of bitchin going on in this thread, not a lot of progress. 22 pages dedicated to a 4 door, and still no turbo...
  12. They are boxed, ready to send mate. What a mission, 70kg including the box so you will need to pick it up from the depot. I will PM you about it.
  13. I have 60 treadwear for the track, 400 for the street.
  14. Fluck you. Kent. Solder your own damn wires.
  15. Buying new tyres every month isn't a life... Isn't that why you bought an AWD?
  16. Computerage? If that isn't a word Dale it damn well should be. lol. I agree, I have enough work to do making the DD ecu run the turbo engine. Don't give him any more silly ideas.
  17. 250wkw, I told him it's probably good for 400kw if he builds the engine. The most interesting part is the dose, no bov on this setup but the noise it makes is completely different due to the pressure reversion having to go up 6M of pipe and a 100mm cooler to hit the throttle plate and back to the compressor wheel. (and the fact it comes from under the back seat. lol)
  18. A 4L V8 with .82 GT35? Lag is non existent. It is a little less responsive than on the manifold, although it is a GT car so the power and transient response seems to suit it. Currently at 190kw at 4psi with an Emanage Ultimate, winding the boost up this week.
  19. Get it on some e85 and squeeze some more boost in Mattias. I hear ethanol is easy to come by over in Sweden...
  20. I love the freedom lobster piping allows for tight bends and spiral work. Here is a stealth boot mount GT35 in a V8 Soarer I worked on recently.
  21. It depends where the temp was taken from, and if there is no coolant flowing the engine temp could have been much higher... I have seen 130+ degree water temp at the track without issues, other than a little flash boiling around the bore. I have alloy block and heads though, so the expansion rates are probably closer than cast iron/alloy.
  22. I doubt it's the ecu, sounds more like a vacuum leak or it needs a throttle relearn.
  23. There is a HKS power tuner in NZ, not sure how close they are to you, or even if they can tune them any more but worth looking into. Aftermarket harnesses are apparently able to be bought from Perth, unless you can find one in Japan. There are a couple of other tuning options on the cards soon, as well as the Emanage ultimate which is not the best solution for higher power figures. Being in NZ, perhaps Link can help you out? I tried contacting them and didn't have much luck, they didn't see a market The G4 extreme will definitely run the VQ25det on a VQ35de map but there is a bit of r+d to get it in and working.
  24. If it is still blowing smoke you may have to drop the intake/dump and check the shaft play. Unfortunately I have seen this a few times with highflowed bush cores and on the M35 there just isn't enough oil flow to allow bush cored turbo's to last a long life. The turbo builder was right to be worried, but he sells bush core rebuilds to suit our Stagea without knowing the low oil flow/high oil pressure design of our engines. There are 3 x 0.9mm oil restrictors in the oil feed before the turbo, if any one of them gets blocked, even partially, the turbo will fail quickly. If you don't rectify the blockage the next turbo will fail also. I now drill these banjo restrictors out to 2.5mm to make sure oil supply is increased and the chance of a blockage is reduced significantly. If you drop the banjo bolt on the block and check the oil flow you will be surprised how little oil dribbles out, even after drilling the sump banjo bolts.
