Thoughts on this .. G35-1050 pulsar result
GTSBoy replied to Butters's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Ahhah! I just realised I furked up. I dropped a bar off my thinking and was looking at the PR 1.67 territory, not the 2.67 territory. So I withdraw most of my original point. -
R33 power locks and windows stopped working

In the door..... -

But the OP's jigger is only doing 24 psi. -
Discontinued part on HR34(RB20DE NEO)
GTSBoy replied to Kapr's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Have you tried cleaning it? If not, you are likely experiencing about the 4rd most common problem with RB engines. -

I'm wiling to bet that this is not sufficiently true, otherwise you'd likely have found the problem, or at least narrowed it down. So, when you say you've checked, what does that mean? And, if there is power and earth where there is supposed to be at the door switches and control modules, then......likely that the problem is inside a door control module. They do die. They have electronics inside them that don't last forever. -

The 25% loss on roller dynos is not drivetrain. It's tyre-roller interface. That argument is long dead. If we do not want to have to confront that issue, then hub dyno is the only answer. As to the BSAC number.....look at the map. 80 lb/min is off the side of it. So even a lower number is in the region of low efficiency. -

600 rwhp is typically about 800 at the engine, is typically about 80 lb/min of airflow is right up against the RH edge of the turbo map that that relatively low boost number you report. -

It seems to me, from a casual inspection of the compressor map, that at ~80 lb/min and 1.65 PR, you are right up against, if not to the right of the choke line. -
Teach me not to send replies in the middle of the night.... In the above message, I meant to say "Well, ticking hydraulic lifters...."

Wheel loading of OEM 18x8" V35 wheels?
GTSBoy replied to Stratus's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
No. The AL400 and 410 will simply be because one is front and one is rear. They're not the same part because one has the stud. The specification will be otherwise identical. -
Well, ticking lifters is usually just a (lot of work) clean, soak in oil, reassemble, or at worst, replacement, exercise. But solid lifters can only grab in he bucket bores if something has been damaged. Scuffed, squeezed, broken fragments of something else stuck somewhere, etc etc.
-
Can be a sticky bucket - which in a solid lifter head is close to the worst thing you want to have happen. Well worth popping it open and having a look.
-
You know the meaning of the offset changes with the width, right? So a 7" wheel with +30 offset has different rim edge positions than an 8" with +30 does. An 8" wheel will have both the inner and outer edges 13mm further away from the hub mounting faces than the 7" will.

Wheel loading of OEM 18x8" V35 wheels?
GTSBoy replied to Stratus's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
If this is to advise an engineer of the load rating of the wheel so he can sign off on it for some bullshit technical regulation, then tell him to pull his head in. As Duncan ^ says, this is not a number that you will find available for almost any wheel. Therefore it is almost impossible to satisfy any requirement to provide that number. A pragmatic approach might be to say that they came off a V35, and so their load rating is going to be more than sufficient for the heaviest variant of that model that rolled on that wheel. -
Rb20det power steering pump on its way out
GTSBoy replied to SeanR32GtSt's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
What's your HICAS situation? You can't use R33 pumps on R32s if you still need to pump fluid around the rear steer circuit. If you have deactivated it, then going to a single stage pump means you can just pis off all the rear steer stuff. Sadly, I don't know if the R33 pumps fall onto the RB20 or if you need to futz with the mountings and/or pulley. I am reasonably sure though, that the question has been asked and discussed on here before, so have a search. -
Thank you. I'm here all week. Tip your waitresses.

Yuck! Why would you make an R34 look like an R33? 😛

RB25 No fuel after injector change
GTSBoy replied to the_dude's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Are we going to take bets on some sort of blanking caps left on/in the new injectors? -
Whilst there may need to be effort put into wiring up the Jatcrapco to the Haltech, surely we're at the point now where this is achievable, no? https://support.haltech.com/portal/en/kb/articles/transmission-control
-
Yes. The is about modifying engines that already have VCT and hence an internal supply. Your block doesn't, requires external feed added.
-
Yuh. They're ^^ correct. That is clearly mechanical friction happening. You do not want to push that pedal while the engine is running EVER AGAIN..... at least until it is all out on the workshop floor and you find out what is rooted.

Skyline v36 350GT sedan hunting on idle
GTSBoy replied to M.Y Mechanical's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
Consult is the name of the Nissan serial databus interface, and is extended by us all to describe any device that can talk on the bus to the ECU. -
No. The RB330 block is arguably weaker than either, because it is taller. None of the RB blocks are particularly good, but the 30s have a longer section up near the deck with very little reinforcement. There is little to no difference between a 25 and 26 block. There is absolutely nothing special about the 26 as a block or engine. It was just a mass produced engine. People go RB30 for one reason and one reason only. Capacity. (Which leads to torque, which leads to power, which leads to everything being better).
