so your saying to do what i said but forget the ECU, NOS and throttel?

No

Forget the loud exhaust. N/A's sound raspy with big open exhausts. Turbo exhaust will be fine. most importantly throw on adj. cam gears and get the ecu tuned........ as i said in my previous post.

Regarding the RX7.... Can you afford to crack the motor and have the seals replaced at a later date? Few mates owned rotors during my late teens. All did seals and all spent $$ building them up. Don't forget the poor fuel consumption. If that doesn't bother you then hell grab it.. Especially if its a 13bt dropped in to a S3 RX7, nice and light. :)

Good fun little cars.

true that n/a's sounds raspy with normal mufflers, but throw in a bit resonator and they deepen right up.

Extractors > offset mufler > resonator = Deep throbbing throaghty exaust, sounds tough

some possible improvements may be an RB26 head with hex throttle bodies, and instead of forged pistons look into those hypereutic ones...

Yeah i was thinking about an RB26 head, but i think the extra money that would cost, would be best spent elsewhere/maybe doing up the RB25 a bit more, whats the flow differences?

Its hard building a motor, as you've gotta find a happy medium between power, drivability, economy, power and cost....

i was thinking about a Q45 90mm afm & Throttlebody... have you got any info/links on the "hypereuric" pistions...?

haha yeah, an RB26 head is not something you find lying around... unfortunately...

agree, the happy medium is the killer - but at the same time you're just dying to have the best parts to do it. especially with an NA, where your trying to extract every last kilowatt. unlike a turbo where if you lose some power here and there, its just a matter of adding more boost to make up for it.

in regards to hypereutectic pistons, i dont know anyone thats had experience with them - but from what i've read and heard about, they are like a happy medium between stock and forgies, they are an aluminum silicon combo, and seemed to be raved about for NA motors...

edit: found a wiki link, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypereutectic_piston

actually you can pretty much google it.

bang for buck wise that may be true, but a few of the people here myself included are simply trying to build a well balanced driveable car that handles well, and has slightly more power than standard whilst maintaining reliability and keeping maintenance costs down.

you are never going to make big power or fast 1/4 mile times with an NA (in reference to a GTST), nor are you going to make big power with a GTST (in reference to lets say a GTR), nor a GTR (lets exaggerate and say a Zonda).

and while your points may be valid and true, NA cars are the base people choose have and want to work with. what i'm saying is that i'm sure most people here know about the futility of making big HP with NA cars and dont need someone telling them otherwise... and that is as a polite f**k off as you'll ever get.

also keep in mind that some of the faster cars around a track are NA, so while the fat chick cant do ballet, i'm sure she can try and do just as well.

p.s - i do not condone fat chicks.

with ya on that one mate :)

Hey I wiped off the rear of my 99 R34 GT-T and I'm selling the parts so if anyone on here is interested (the whole front end is fine) in buying my neo engine, gearbox, blitz front mount, nismo cluster, brakes, anything front end related drop me an e-mail at [email protected] and let me know what ur after n we can werk somethin out.

Oh also i got my plates if anyone wants them NSMO-34 black slimline.

Thanks!

Was that Turbo or N/A

Hey guys already sold everything!! Thanx for viewing anyways. Oh and yes it was turbo durr lol

Actually I still got the plates so if anyone wants them yea jus email me. But yea teh whole car is pretty much gone.

Thanx

Edited by NSMO-34

Sold the entire running gear (engine, ecu, loom, gearbox, n clutch) for $3,500. I threw in my front mount, brakes, gauges, cluster (Nismo cluster fckn siiiick) for another $1,000. So pretty much the whole car for $4,500....pretty sad actually when I paid $30,000 for it :_(

    • 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.
