its only limited to around 30% under about 3000rpm

And its a pain in the arse to tune around. I still have the throttle restriction, my 0-100 time would be around 4.5 seconds but it could be much better.

I think it could be related to speed, under 30kph perhaps?

im wondering how you intend on getting around speed cut :?

4.5 is damn quick. what mods have you got to get those numbers?

(i just had a look at your Garage). You gave exhaust 6/10 and intake 10/10? Did you do a full exhaust turbo back? or just cat-back?

No more boost/mods to pull those numbers?

Plenty of both, I haven't updated the garage for a few months.

The previous exhaust was too loud so I bought a s/h cat back and fabricated my own 3.5 inch dump into a highflow cat.

I run a fairly small highflow at 20psi on E85. Current tune is 300awkw.

Hang on... a custom exhaust, some ethenal, a high flow turbo running 20psi and you make 300awkw?? wow thats impressive.

Can the factory transmission, ECU, and injectors handle all that?

(you have me very interested) :D

He has an FMIC, upgraded trans, 610cc injectors, Tomei fuel pump and is running an E-manage Ultimate.....plus a couple of other home made bit's all of which you will need.

How much all up you reckon Scotty? 6-8k? Pretty good value I'd say...

Then again a friend of mine got his stock 04 WRX to 190 awkw for 6k...all done at STI at Docklands...

Gearbox wiped out the budget, 4k there, Highflow was another 2k, the rest was bit by bit. I would guess 10k total with me doing all the labour/fabrication.

200awkw is about the limit of the stock intake, stock turbo will flow that at higher boost but will then fail. I would be interested to see what a stock setup would do on e85...

Really? I thought M35 had ~140 - 150 awkw...so exhaust adds 50 awkw!???

Yes, You are correct..

I think Cam is referring to adding an Emanage or something similar to produce a more efficient result that should be tunable to 190kw on the stock injectors.

Scotty, What mods did you do to the gearbox to cost $4K??

Valve body upgrade, metal plates between the clutches laser cut from thinner material so they could fit extra friction plates, Dominator 3k high stall torque converter. It was the first one they had seen, its not like other RE5's apparently.

I think I hit 179awkw on stock boost, if the standard turbo was steel wheeled, 200 wouldn't be a problem.

Yep, hence what I typed.

Bargain! :)

Should be able to get around that power level from stock with just an exhaust and tune on a VQ25det M35!

OK for the tv to work youll need a new tv tuner, whats available now im not sure that Asuka dont sell them (so i read)

getting the tv working while youre driving is not advisable and against the law, but if you HAVE to, there are override boxes that can do all this and literally just plug in. they come from japan, im surprised your car didnt have one fitted already!

check under the DVD tray andsee if there is a green light that is also a button. thats the override button for the tv.

yeh im pretty sure i dont have one.

looking at the Trans ecu it looks like something was added and then taken off back to stock. Both me and scott assumed it would be the overide.

where can I get a Tuner from? its it a simple Jaycar type mod or is it more complex than im thinking. I was expecting it to be like the FM Band expander.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
