lol...

so fuel hose ( what size ) and speedlow fittings :-)

Do you run it underbody along the old line ?

From memory, Dash 6 fittings, they bolt straigh to the pump and 9 mm ID hose.

Under the car using the standard fuel rail clamps.

I use the standard feed pipework as the return and remove the standard return pipework.

On the R32GTST, I used the HICAS pipework, it was there, in the right place and plenty big enough.

:rofl: cheers :)

yes Im going to do as Gary suggested before touching or upgrading pumps.

I want to go over 500rwhp even if just for wank factor :-)

Im getting a scanner tomorrow so should have something up over the weekend

Are you going to try run bigger fuel line?

Get that scanner working, im keen to compare...

Just got back from mercury before we ran the car up with kyle and with a few little adjustments with no water/meth on 18psi we got 340rwkws out of it.

Gotta change a few things like wastegate spring is too weak (7psi spring) and boost is dropping up high to 17psi, so going for 14 and 7 for 21psi. Im hoping that with the extra boost some more timing and the water/meth injection which should allow the extra timing/boost we can crack 400rwkws, even though it aint knocking yet. Im guessing with a full tune without water/meth we can get to 370 and then the last 30 with the injection.

r33 racer well picked up....you are on the ball, but it was just to say well done since i hadn't heard anything and was keeping an eye out on the thread with his updates.

Its always good to see a car up and running. You would be surprised how many people have a collection of parts in their garage/cupboard.

haha ISL33P actually i already knew he had one on his car previously. I just said it like that so it seemed i was highly intuitive. I can relate to the amount of parts in the garage though, we are upto our necks in spare junk.

Yeh the problem was from a boost leak where the i/c pipe went into the silicon hose on the tank of the i/c - inlet side. The whole system wouldnt hold 5psi. So i fabbed up a new inlet i/c pipe which fixed that. So we are outta the woods for now. At the moment were getting full boost at about 4500rpm, which is a big difference in lag, we should be around the 3700rpm fullboost, which will be 21psi. Were hoping to just control boost with springs and nothing else, as the wastegate is now directly running off our turbine housing. So hopefully on the next tune fullboost will be achieved earlier then 4500rpm. I should have got the print out and posted it on here.

whooo hoo - you must be a happy chappy having finally sorted it Michael.

Its always a process of elimination with these things, its just the frustration of having to sort through all the variables to finally find the root of the cause. I know it was driving me loopy trying to find my problem.

When I get some tyres sorted drop around and Ill take you for a spin.

Thanks Ariel - Your plenum obviously works well :-) Highly recommended

shit yeh brad...its good when problems get sorted. Dont have to stress anymore about any wild theories which would end up in engine pull out to fix.

And shit yeh to the spin...woot. Its going to be a headspin machine for sure.

Ok Guys after reading alot about oil setups, i'm a bit worried about my sump, i am retrofitting a rb30det into an old Lc gtr torana, the sump has been modified dramaticly to fit, it looks like this

sump1.jpg

sump2.jpg

sump3.jpg

Now the front of the pan is pretty thin i am worried about not being able to fit any baffles(not enough room), so i might get a fair bit of crank dipping, also the oil may take it's time getting back to the pickup area (which is quite small doesn't look like it can hold much ) does anyone know if these are going to be an issue? the motors going to be putting out around 500rwhp

Ive been looking at dry sump setups just incase. and i have an idea... if i run a scavanger pump from the bottom of the pickup area in the sump to a remote tank situated above the engine. then at the bottom of that remote tank have a large pipe gravity feeding to the exsisting n1 oil pump pickup,

Will the n1 pump have enough suction to pull oil from the top remote tank.. it will be pulling basicly strait down, so gravity will be on it's side..

Is the sump going to cause me problems?

Or does it look like it's going to be fine

Bought some Toyo R888's today - holy crap what a difference. Its like driving the millenium falcon now, all the power gets to the road with barely any wheel spin.

Awesome !!

Probably break something in the drive train soon now :-)

New tyres make the car a whole lot faster hey Brad.

You get a scan of that graph??

As far as I know Wiesco only make one type of RB25 piston - so you have no choice.

If you are going to use there RB25 piston you need to work backwards and calculate the comp ratio you will have with them, then figure out what thickness head gasket you will need to achieve the comp ratio you actually want.

PISTONS:

i want to clear this up, if I use weisco rb25det pistons, what compression should i order, of the shelf version, suggestions?

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
