real men run 2 bar gate pressue on base maps!

i reckon.....

you call yourself a tuner guiltoy and it cant hold 2 bar on a trailer tune .... pfffffff

thats so 2008!!!!

im sure you gave him rotational idle and anti lag so he can sound tuff on the trailer.

New fully rebuilt engine, new ecu thats only programed to start the car and drive onto a trailer / dyno.

He won't be driving it.

ohh yes i will be driving it...and have

the new (rebuilt) NPC twin plate is nice and bitey. Also to my amazement the modified Nismo mechanical 2 way rear diff doesn't clunk...must be the special oil its running or im not doing tight enough turns at low speed.

The gate has a 20psi spring in it. :D

This car does NOT need rotational idle to sound tuff.

So...is it E85...or BP98 tune?

I say we do a sensible street tune on BP98 for starters.

Then we fill the tank with CSR's finest and turn up the screws! Will fit the sidepipe for this tune so bring your hearing protection Guilt-Tripper.

that will be an interesting comparison, 98 vs E85 vs sunoco or some such back to back.

and its not like its hard to change tunes DI setup to a toggle switch and it can change fuel and ign maps at the flick of a switch.

Due to the price of Sunoco exceeding $10/litre im no longer running it...but will have some E85 v BP98 figures.

All over the toggle switch set-up.

Nah it's shit...

and stop inflating his ego :D

to be honest Guilt-Tripper knocked the nail on the head...he said to me "you have no idea how awesome this car is" i said "yes i do" he replied "no you don't, you can't, because you own it" I thought about it and agree, other people appreciate this car a lot more than me...all i see is its faults and things id like to fix or change. I saw a genuine Nismo R32 GTR today, it was bog stock and had 31K original Klm's on it...i was drooling over it more than i ever would over my own car.

Yeah he can be a wise man when he wants to be... and to be honest, I've noticed that, you've never really appreciated the car that you own, it always seemed like work... the only time you were actually happy was when it cracked 500kw :D

You have literally built a legend.

The car has come a long way since i bought it for Stace to use as her daily driver. It replaced the HR31 coupe she previously owned. It was stock except for a HKS cat-back exhaust and was the cover car in the HPI GTR special No.1 and was used as the test car in the 'buying used' article that they used to run in the mag each month. It had 39,000 original klm's on it and was imaculate like a new car.

It is spoken about at home just like a living member of our family would which is a little strange. Even the unit development we built at Soldiers Point had Spark Silver two-pack kitchen cupboards to match the cars paintwork. Yes its a worry.

Im so glad nobody came up with the $55+K to take it off my hands...grossly undervalued...it was a great oportunity for someone smart enough with cash to secure a bargain at under 1/2 the build and development cost. To build this car again now with the Yen as it is would cost 1/2 that much extra.

The PPG straight cut dogbox is not as bad as i thought...pretty smooth to shift up...down is a little tricky but ill get used to it. It has a nice whine to it too.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • 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.
