Hi MrVspec, if you don't auto clave the parts, am I correct in assuming that you don't do stressed stuff such as prop shafts?

Cheers

PS your parts look very well made... you NEED to get your website up again! :rofl:

PPS can you do an R32gtr with Z-tune style louvres down the middle?

no we dont do prop shafts, only do stuff that can be tested in house before the product is marketed.

yeah the website is taking a long time hey, been onto the boss about it. He tells me it'll be up soon, but yeah who knows maybe a month or two??

the 32gtr with z tune louvres is possible, but you have to make a plug, then the mould then the product this all costs money, and with carbon being hard to get at the moment parts are very very expensive... i am doing my bonnet at the moment for my GTR all custom with vents and stuff when i'm finished i'll post up some pics.....

Hi Noy, from what i remember you guys do vac bag ur lay-ups?? If this is the case, dunno if u do know or not but there is a new pre preg out that is resin impregnated from one side and dry on the other, Good to use if u do not have an autoclave. Just vac bag and chuck into an oven.. Resin system is a VTM type so cure temps can be anything from 60-110 degree C.

I saw a sample part made from it today and the finish was really good (mold did not have a gel coat). If u do not know about it then get onto the usual suspects...(Lavender/advanced comp). Could be usefull for the stuff that you guys make n would be shit loads easier to lay up as comapred to a wet lay up. cheers.

Hey SK, I rang around on Monday all around australia, and nobady has any pre made, I then rang around to get some made and everywhere in sydney is short on carbon. So i rang the guy on here custom carbon in brissy they are making me up a big panel of it give them a try on 07 38652014.

Thanks and yes it is getting difficult to buy. I will give them a call.

:D Cheers :P

Gee i'm a bit late at replying but thanks for the plug...

Any updates on this setup yet?

Work is flatout mate bonnet is almost done, woking out placement for the duct, then start working on the airbox plug.. should be in the next few weeks... sorry for keeping ya hanging.. should look sweet though.

dont know if i'm gonna take it to jamboree yet ??? it will definately be done for brisbane auto salon.

I'm putting custom vents in the CF bonnet that duct straight to an enclosed airbox. no more hotair for me

Just a quick one on this:how are you getting around avoiding water ingestion(IE: what happens when it rains...)? If it's something you'd rather keep quiet design wise,then OK;maybe PM me for a 'general' idea?

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
