Just got back from the workshop. Trouble looming. Council tied up his afyternoon sprouting by laws and regs re noise (I told yall it was farkin loud)

just about done all the low and midrange tuning, I have never seen anybody so meticulous. Hes dropping the car off shortly, then It goes back monday when the animal will be unleashed. Very sedate 300rwhp at 8lb atm. Found an extra 50 hp just playing with the inlet cam. The idle sounds off the planet. Mick asked me if i wanted it smoother as he would alter thye cams to suit, i told him if he touched it i would kill him, twice, it sounds farkin haaaaaawwwwwwt!!!!

For those wondering why this is taking as long as it is its really simple. When i questioned the magic man re the time frame he told me straight up. If you want a tune like 90% of tunes going around atm then fine, I'll do it and you can have the car in a couple of hours. But what you will get for your money is a large hp number and a car rich as all shit to keep it safe, If you want the tune to unlock the potential of the build then Farkorf and let me tune it in my own way and my own time....I farked orf. :)

I understand the time required for a decent tune, but wow. Is Mick working on your car in between other jobs or just taking a farking long time on yours alone. I'd be scared to see your bill for the tune....you'd want some serious power/response!

the thing now pulls harder with the current 300hp than it did with the previous 340hp on the run in tune. and oh my son of rajab, that camy lumpy idle is just sooooooo porn :ninja:

rofl, I'm with you Matt. If he was seriously spending all that time on mine alone i would want a veyron at the end of it.

Due to illness and some other issues he has only spent 3/4 hours on mine. Patience grasshopper, it will be worth the wait.

man i am so unlucky i was at ipswitch like 1 -2 hrs ago...and i missed yah...bugger.

sounds like it is going to haul arse on 1 bar...cant wait to see it on 1.5 bar.....mmmmmm..

noel's busy as a mofo so i'll update you guys

it aint making anymore power than 440bhp, dont matter what boost, 18psi, or even 23psi. we think the cats collapsed.

also its now not holding boost, it's spiking. but i believe thats because the exhaust gases rnt escaping quick enough (collapsed cat) and the gases are backing up against the wastegate, forcing it closed and then increasing the boost.

he's also had to change fuel rail (got my tomei rail on there now) because the injectors werent sealing to the rail and had to change boost controller (now running blitz spec s) as it wouldnt allow any adjustment over the 9psi wastegate spring

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
