Hey,

I want to put my car on the Dyno although, I'm not too sure where I should take it too. Anyone have any good suggestions? I live in Logan.

I think all that needs to be fixed at the moment is the timing it seems to be just a tad out. The car hasn't been Dynoed at all and thats even after the rebuild which was only a few months ago, so I'd like them just to check over the car as well, just to make sure everything is fine.

Engine / Car

- Nissan Skyline R33 GTS25T 1993 Series 1 RB25DET Forged 2.6L

Modifications:

- K & N Pod Filter

- Cold Air Intake

- Forged Pistons

- Strengthen Conrods

- Blueprinted

- Balanced

- Port Polished

- Metal Head gasket

- Spitfire Coils

- High Performance Timing Belt

- High Performance Spark Plugs

- Gready Turbo Timer

Everything else is stock on the car at this stage, so stock ECU, stock boost etc.

Also, how much would I be looking at roughly? Cheers! :P

Hmmmm, best sort out the ECU problem first, get a new one, PFC, HALTEC, name your price, then go for a tune, roughly for full tune, depending where you go, 500 and up, plenty of recommendations on tuners, matt spry down the g/c to allstar up north side zilmere, ones i know of, but plenty around but not to many decent ones that will do a decent job. but yeah, if your running stock ecu exhaust intercooler, maybe you should balance the list on which way you may like to go, best sus those out then move to a tune, to check if fine, as it has been rebuilt just remember it may be running on the lean side esp. because of the stock ecu.

Power runs are $55.00 and up at many dynos,

But it never hurts to get compression and leakdown test if you really want to check things out.

Cheers

Aaron, you cant re-tune the standard the ECU as they are "self learning". I got my car put on the dyno at Allstar 2 weeks ago to check all the appropriate ratios and voltages. I would recommend that you look into getting a new ECU as this will enable you to change all the fuel ratios and timing.

Beacuse your car is an Auto you will need to look into getting a piggy-back ECU like an APEXI SAFC or EMANAGE/EMANAGE ULTIMATE or HALTECH. I have read that if you change the valve body in the auto then you can get a PowerFC but because they are not made any more then it might be hard to find one. My vote is for either the Emanage ultimate as they can adjust the timing or a Haltech. Talk to Richard at Allstar Tuning at Geebung ( www.atsperformance.com.au ) ans he will be able to help you out. Either that ot Matt Spry at the gold coast. There are also other places like Mercury Motorsport (talk to trent) and GT Autos at Newmarket/luttwyche that could give you pointers.

You already have the basis for a fantastic engine, now all you need to do is get some good hardware to go with it.

Cheers

Chris

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
