Hey GTR.Maverick, she's looking good! Looks like she's got a good home...thank you :) I loved this car! The guy who I sold it to (Chris) didn't have any trouble with it but were you the guy that bought it from him? I heard it had engine troubles somewhere along the way....never skipped a beat for me though. What's she got at the wheels now?

Been a while since I checked in here, sorry for the late reply. I bought it off Chris and maybe 4months later the head gasket went so went to GT Garage when Nick Summers owned for an engine out rebuild,

- new N1 block 

- Nitto rods and CP pistons

- Koyo 52mm radiator 

- custom fabricated intake piping by Jake from Weld Logic

- Haltech platinum pro ECU

Few other bits and pieces and then Nick custom tuned it, makes just over 300awkw now. Could've made more but the system couldn't keep up so we set it at a safe level. It's overdue for some more work but holding off til I buy a house and can justify the spend.

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
