Oh okay.

I wasn't after a massive power gain, as my plans are only for a full exhaust system, SAFC, Fuel pump, fuel regulatoir and a intercooler. Just thinking if the VG30 could make things a little more interesting...esp at $450 vs $1800 for a hybird/hiflow option)

just though if you can get a resonable gain from the VG30 Turbo it might be worth while and still get it all done for around the 5200-5500 mark...(note...labour is free, bar dyno tuning)

Thanks

Okay...

To satisfy my curiousity, how hard can you boost teh stock VG30 Turbo ? Does it still have the ceramic wheel as the Hihatchi Turbo in the RB25 ???

The 1 800.00 was for the standard turbo to have its oil galleries modified, T04 front housing and upgrade to steel wheel and high grade bearings.

Thanks

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
