Thanks mate. Your responses are as fast as your car.

you can just see pauls head gettin bigger :D

what steve said is right, put the exhaust on and have a quick dyno run to check the AFR's. if theyre rediculously rich then maybe consider an AFC. you can get one of the older series ones for around the $150 mark

I can't say that the map I used when going to the dyno was any evidence of a good tune. My afr's above 120kmh in 4th were super rich. I did mean to make them that way to minimise the ping issue. Otherwise the afr was around 12 which aint bad for a road tune.

The dyno resulted in 230 something HP at 130kmh, whatever that is in rpm (I am guessing 4700rpm) before the ping comes in.

I've got a 600HP fuel pump in now and things seem a little better coming onto the throttle than before too.

aftermarket management would be the way to go and possibly a boost controller, then before u start playing with bigger turbos, have to consider, upgrading fuel system, and rebuild engine with stronger internals so it can cope with the power level and higher boost levels that bigger turbos produce :)

if you don't want a full on ecu, get an apexi safc or safc II which is a piggy back air fuel controller, i just got mine unitl i can afford a full on ecu :)

adrian :P

adrian, how much did the apexi safc2 cost you and what better performance are you getin out of it?? Wheres the best place to buy one from and who do you reckemond to work on cars, i took mine to Tim Sleko to get a GFB boost controller put on (now at 10 psi), and take off the fuel regulator cause it was running too rich.

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
