I'll do mine the day E85 is readdily available on the North side, that is the only thing holding me back. it is still (for now) a daily.

Hopefully they will bring it closer some day... When mine is running i use it as a daily more than i really should

My wife will kill me if I swap to fuel I have to drive 80k's for no matter how much fun it would be to have extra HP to play with. I will need injectors too and probably a surge tank and lift pump.

I would like E85 too but replacing the fuel system seems a bit of a pain in the ass at the moment.

I get away with only an in tank pump at the moment

If you are doing Crank trigger you might as well do it if only to prepare for the inevitable itch to pump moar power into it.

One step at a time! Install Link, then crank trigger, then Flex sensor and fuel system. But between crank trigger and flex sensor comes new daily.

I forsee lots of expenditure in your future...and lots of smiling when you start the GTR

Pretty much! I took it for a careful drive on the weekend actually, it sucks not being able to give it the boot!

Its a Walbro 460 E85 one.

Just read through your build thread, your old tuner was doing you a major disservice. With the same turbo also on 98 I made 260rwkw at 14 psi and 328 or somthing like that at 20psi on Richards dyno. Glad you made the switch!

i was actually quite depressed with the original figures from Mercury when it only made 260rwkw's after turbo upgrade. I thought it was really underpowered and thought it might be cause i kept it low mounted and internally gated that i lost a bit of HP.

Similar thing with my old Tuner, Richard has some Magic fingers when it comes to tuning and he is straight up with everything too which is a major selling point in a Mech / Tuner for me.

I was the same, stock exhaust mani and internally gated turbo

He is good!

Do you use Richard as well Andy? Top little workshop he has there i reckon. Two hoists and a dyno. there was 7 cars including mine there today. Its only him and a young fella who are working there too.

His knowledge is great, specially when it comes to explaining things as I know a decent amount bt am no car wizard. Think the young bloke there owns a cressida with some quality stance. Seen it there every time i go

I used him before Dan and Sean came along. Now Dan is gone I will use him should I need a mechanic again.

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
