My server is down @ the Moment

I will have it running next week

And if i got time i want to put all videos on the site

The car is still running and going but has lost comp in that Cylinder which tells me rings as it also has a bit of blow by.

I did richen that Cylinder up by 2 % in the Settings of my ecu but will prob have to run more.

I think it would of lasted if i wasnt trying to make more power yesterday but yeah

The new package will pretty much be setup the Same

the only difference is im going to run 4 % more fuel in that cylinder.i can also muck around with Seperate timing In each cylinder so i will also play with that

15 pages and no pics of broken conrods or holes in blocks. im impresed.

i have a rb30 (n/a convert) on std management and injectors (vl t bits) with meth injection making 253 rwkw witch is a fair achevment in my books now yours is more of an achevement but i dont have the abiliuty to tune mine as i have no dyno. ive been slowly steping up the power to the curent level and now have got the shits sold the thing and am going twin cam head, hope to get 400 hp out of the thing or ill cry.

good job lad. at least u setled down abit and arnt as angry now

Yeah its all good

You gotta keep Calm With some of these Keyboard Mechanics as i have learnt but yeah

Im happy with the Effort in the Motor. I WAS hopeing to get into the 9`z but yeah

gonna have to give up

lol

With the standard motor that is

OK

Here are the photos of the Engine While we are stripping it. The pistons are in Good Condition No detention Marks Or Leaning out Signs EG melting Edges.

The head gasket was a bit Stuffed.As you can see the Standard Cams are there.

Ill post somemore Photos Later and

With the new built RB25 engine are you changing any of the bolt ons like turbo etc? Also I gather this is more of a drag car then track why did you stick with the RB25 instead of building a RB30 which imo would be better suited to drag only

    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
