Ey i was wondering what 1/4 mile times you guys out there are getting and a breif low down on whats done to thecar?

The reason i ask is im takeing my car down to heathcote raceway tomorow with the cordia boys

and i wanted to c where abouts i sit in comparason

i've got a manual series 1 r33 rb25de

only mods atm are zorst clutch custom intake with poddie. cars getting weighed down a bit with a real nice body kit

Im in the process of turboing it and i have the intercooler all set up planning on running 1 or 2 runs with the intercooler running just to c what happens. i know there was at least one post about intercooling an n/a everyone says its not worth it n from the 10 mins of driving with it on i rekon i hasnt changed the cars power up or down but ey 1/4 mile trials will tell all of you out there that its prob not worth doing.

anywayz ill post up my times at the end of the day tommoz or mabye sun if i get home to late

Hey dude, with a big body kit and 17 inch "heavy" chromies back when it was a 2.5 NA i managed a best of 15.8 and 14.01 with a 75HP shot of gas, car had extractors, custom intake, 2.5" straight through exhaust and a home tuned SAFC, also had a big fiber glass body kit.

yo im back from the day out today can i say it was a mad day wiked turn out mostly old evo's and wrx's but all fun

I did my first two runs with the intercooler all piped up for anyone considering doing it DONT, i ran a 16.7 and 16.8

i did one amazing 14.15 which i think was an computer error

i ran two 15.5 runs @ about 88.92 mph

and i ran consistantntly 15.6-15.8

which i think is pretty good out of the n/a baby

i just don't understand...

so you have read the post about intercooling an NA... but you did it anyway????

i mean, don't just look at it, READ IT

we were writing these things for a reason - its just not going to do ANYTHING

thats not true it made the car slower.

thankz na r33

waz i read all the stuff and i knew it wasnt going to help the car i just though i would confirm it. The reason i had the intercooler on is because im getting the car ready to turbo it, i didnt pay for piping or anything it was just a test which didnt cost me anything and was fun to try out

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • 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).
