  1. "The biggest piss off for the djetro for me was lack of atmospheric correction capability, which meant if I went up the nearby range the car would run like crap."

    This breaks my brain a little. What am I missing? I thought that 15psi of post turbo mountain air would have the same o2 as 15psi of sea level air? Surely the map sensor is doing the atmospheric compensation you require? To create the 15psi of mountain air the turbo goes into a different efficiency zone as it is working harder now, you may visit areas of the map in the ecu you have not visited frequently and the waste gate spring will open a little earlier due to less pressure on the atmospheric side of it.

    What am I missing? It doesn't physics well with me.

  2. Thought I would share a fix with you guys. It looks factory and easy to install once the sub loom is made.

    Had a small miss which was fixed by gapping to 0.6 but car lost a lot of mid range throttle response. A new coil pack loom and coil packs fixed it mostly (now back to 0.8) but there is still a small miss sometimes under accel when booting it up hills (I am not keen of taking any more accel fuel out). I sourced some connectors for the coil pack connectors and bought a second hand gtr fuse box/wiring loom to rape some parts out.

    Made this sub loom to plug between the engine loom and the coil pack loom to supply fresh battery volts and a fresh earth. Done in 2.5mm cable.

    Install in spare space in fuse box.

    No more misfire!!

    Also chopped this bit out of the other fuse box and clipped it onto the existing fuse box to create some more fuses. Run one to the fuel pump for a remote relay and got some spares for later.

  3. Anyone got a dead R32/33 ignitor laying around? Happy to pick up and swap for a box of beer. I want to pull it apart to see if I can reclaim the plugs for extending the loom to an aftermarket ignition.

  4. spotted white 32 gtr on main road/fitzsimons lane round-about just before 6pm. Saw you give me the thumbs up last second

    That was me..... your car looks soooooo nice. Did you end up racing the ute? :)

  5. Only my 2c... (not an expert purely a tinkerer)

    You are judging whether the car can take timing by a sound through a set of det cans? The car is pinging at peak torque? Take 4 degrees out at this section and see what happens to torque? Does the ping go away? Then feed it back in and check whether the torque rises and then falls again and the ping comes back? Add more timing back in after peak torque?

    I have heard a lot of what I thought was det but ended up not being det just other engine noises.

    Maybe run the dyno run in a different gear to see if the ping goes away?
