There well supported but a tad basic for street R33(Stinger version) and waste spark etc.You would need the top model to do it right so best to look for a plugin like PFC or Wolf etc. You need Idle speed,VVT,, boost, Aircon request,and closed loop minimum for a nice road car, Stinger uses it outputs for tacho,fuel pump control etc leaving you short on outputs.Ive seen fuel pumps hard wired cause theres no outputs left so if going EMS look for their topend model,and as your saying the price is cheap i think your talking Stinger.The real upside it EMS are fantastic ppl to deal with.

Thanks NIB. I think in the end I may go Wolf, just a shame the dashes are not availble until they find another supplier. IMO PFC's are not really a good choice considering what they are and feature for the prices people are asking, you need to run Z32's with them which is an additional cost and nothings guaranteed because its all 2nd hand now. In comparision (for cost) there are many better choices, the only thing they have going for them is the support for tuning.

Anyway my intake/turbo setup is..

HKS GT2530

SARD BOV

3" Turbo back exhaust (inc stainless steel dump/front)

Hi flo cat

Pod

With an ECU i suppose i should get around 300rwhp?

stinger is a great little ecu for a basic setup converting a car on a carby to an efi setup.

For a nissan it's not a good move.

how come??

my car has made over 400 hp@ 27psi on NIB's dyno with the stinger. stock internaled rb20...

my best mate converted a series2 rb25 into his r32 with gt30 and stinger and that made close on 400 aswell

there an awesome bang for buck ecu, u dont need to wire it up as a standalone it can be pickybacked aswell meaning you keep a few outputs.

they have just realesed a whole new range aswell which would be worth looking into

I like the stinger myself , I had one not long ago running a turbo efi converted A14 in a datsun 1200 ute.

Power numbers themselves aren't a measure of how good an ecu is, the setup is a complete pain in the ass compared to things on the market that have plug in abillity to suit the RB nissans. But If you like mucking around then why not?

hows the fuel ecconomy on yours?

yeah true i can understand the wiring up as being an issue to some, but it made life a hell of alot easier to me (managed to ditch most of it from the exhaust side)

agreed on the power thing but 27psi on the internal map sensor... no need to upgrade to bigger sensor unlike some of the more expensive ecu's on the market.

fuel ecconomy is like any hard tuned car,I see 350km to a tank with light driving and with full throttle hill runs type driving (on off on off) ive seen up to 400 a tank :rolleyes:

You must be kidding. Is that even possible with such mods? I find it hard to believe man. As bubba said, must be a very generous dyno.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
