Skyline Got New Bits,intercooler Finaly On


Recommended Posts

yeah i recon the gap does not help. What plugs did you buy, splitfires? I finaly got my bits together for my wasted spark. When i pulled my coil out to see the spark, i could hardly see it. LOl. so this will definatly help.

I have no CAI, yet to make it up. But i have some good ideas as to how i want to do it.

AS for the bonnet thing, well no, i don't like the look of it, but hay.

Can't wait to see the water sprays, i'll pinch your design. LOL.

Keep us posted

i bought standard coilpacks with ngk iridium 9s, i didnt see the need for splitfires as im not aiming over 200rwk and i can get the standard ones for trade price which is $50 cheaper than slitfires each coil. i didnt end up hitting the dyno because my plans on modifications have changed a little :O , ive decided to take my time making the cai and im about to pm gmb to ask him if he still has that old smic that came off his 32 along with a water spray kit, i can tell you now how to make a water spray kit cheap:

go to a wrecker and buy the biggest squarest window squirter bottle you can find (being in hobart ill suggest hobart truck spares because they have 4x4s and such, make sure they have the pump on them though as this makes it alot easier). next you buy the hosing (in my case because im using a smic im gunna get some 2nd hand stuff with the bottle) next you co to the local hardware store and buy a garden spray kit (the nozzles and whatever associated to plumb them into the water squirter) then fit it to the best possible spot you can find on your car and wire/plumb it up i might take some photos and do a diy thread for it?

as for the bonnet lifting, if you dont want to do that then look under your bonnet and think how else you can flow air through there to keep temps down, im sure thered be a way :)

pics will come soon :D

hay toffy, so how much was that a coil??? Is the any chance if the price is right, you could get more coils???

I have an R33 SMIC if they are the same you can have it. I have all the piping ect.

As to the water sprayer kit, yeah i will make my own too, just need more time and money, lol. TIME is a bit short with a growing family.

Jaycar make an excellent water kit controller, it works soooo dam well, you can run it of temp, MAP, boost ect ect, it's $60 for the kit, here is the link.

I have used this before in a different application, but very good kits.

As to the sprayers, d not use the plastic ones. Go to a farm supplier and they have 180deg spray nozzles for $5 each, they are great, not sure what the name is though.

Here are some good links too

hay toffy, got a template for an R33 CAI and all the instructions, i can also get the material ALCUBOND from a contact i have. All up a carton of beer for material PM and i will get you the details of the template. The template is not mine so i can't take credit but it looks good so far.

I should have mine setup over the next couple of weeks.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
