Im still the winner so far!!

With a plain bearing internal gated dinosaur from 1987 :(

But when carls is finished it should be a serious piece of gear. Glad to see someone throw some serious coin at an RB20 and share all the details as well. For that I congratulate you and wish you all the best..

back in your box. you lucky devil got most of the good gear from the factory (manifold, turbo, fmic etc)

I cant help but wonder how cool RB20s would have been if Nissan kept with the GTS-R theme with the R32 and Touring Car racing. We would all be driving cars with the grunt that yours and Carlh are makinh :thumbsup:

final assembly done...motor is due to go into car tommorow with any luck it will be done.

brand new nismo motor mount modded to clear compressor inlet, its a tight fit inside the car.

proly gonna have to replace these lines, supply water to and from the turbo, but shifted and took some heat from the turbo manifold.

Im with mattsr and cubes!!!!!!!! Give it some real boost. After all, that GT30R is only having fun at 22 psi and you have engine capable handling more now. Bring it on :)

I have been watching this thread. Beautiful work. Cant wait to see the results.

BTW where did you get the turbo from? I thought the "real" GT30R still werent available in Aus....

You know that you now have wet our appetites with pics :) , so we're gona want some audio clips when its done :(

Ciao

thanks for the kind words...going to school and trying to rebuild a car is hard, so its taken a while to work and save money to fix the old girl.

im actualy in the USA, so i got the turbo here no problem, www.phoenixturbo.com was the place where i got mine and they were great to deal with...

i look so much fatter than i am, damn baggy shirt...

chromemoly flywheel, guy i got it from put it on drove 5 ft and took it off...

infamous xtd clutch, better not let me down as my last one was amazing.

oil line clearance

clearance of fittings and said lines in the head with motor in the car...

turbo clearance against r32 xmember, mount kits proly would not work...

Awsome work Carl, looks top notch and should make some awsome numbers. what was the head stud kit worth? what head gasket did you use?

Damn HKS low mounts and tiny engine mount clearance, my 2871r with a .6 cover only just fits aswell, make sure you get some tough intake piping to stop it rubbing through when your engine bucks. :happy:

I hate those clips you can’t save them (very GOOD sounding rb20):(

if its youtube or google vid then you can. Google something along the lines of "saving youtube videos" and there is a script to install on mozilla :P (shit quality, but hey)

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
