The answer to all your questions there are, no idea :(

I will be pulling it out when i put the new turbo, and ecu in...so 1-2 months time. As for cost, no idea how much they go for, plus i may hang on to it for regency issues. Power wise...Krishy i think is still using a stock series 1 afm, so about 220rwkw, maybe a bit more.

very very nice power figure Dave specially when its untuned.....R33 AFM's are good for about 250rwkw's and that would be most likely maxing them out at that point....i am going to get the car tuned with the stock AFM and see how much we can squeeze out of it before swaping to a Z32....i am only making 211 atm.....Saturday should tell :(

can someone help me out ?

i bought an engine off this forum which was apparently working etc etc and had been pulled apart and put back together professionally but after putting it in the car and

being compression tested it has low compression (waiting on exact figures).

the guy i got it off said that when i picked it up it had a timing belt on it and the timing was set to tdc but ive come to find that it was missing idler and tensioner pulleys , not to mention

it was also missing oil seals around the back of the cam pulleys and its missing bolts off the intake manifold.

it also had heaps of missing coolant lines...

what can i do ?

ask for my money back ?

ask him to pay for repairs ?

shit mitch your situation is getting worse day by day mate.....well you can give the seller the 2 options and see what he says in regards to it....goodluck with it mate....just cant wait to see your ride back on the road

you and me both man !

so over this crap

but i got some good news this morning

got accepted into tafe to study Cert II in Automotive Mechanical , starting jan next year :)

makes me think about my power figures....when i first got my car tuned..it still had its n/a fuel pump and reg...but had a early darkhalf rechipped ecu (before realtime) and rb20 redtop nics injectors...it pulled 175.4kw at the treads..but leaning out big time in the top end....this latest tune it had a bosch 040 pump and a vlt reg...but only pulled 150.....my first tune it was still using the same AFM as when the car was on lpg n/a and had it blown apart a few times.....i dont get it....when it was first tuned....it had the same fuel filter and plugs from over a year previously....me dont know...me too little

Dave, get in touch with luke

he still has his GTR pump, and glenn has a Z32 that he'll no longer need, solves both problems then

Correct, got a nice GTR fuel pump sitting here with your name on it. And Glenda has a Z32, problem solvered

messing around with the valve timing without knowing what you're doing can definitely have an effect on compression.......very easy to dial in and dial out compression by varying the valve timing slightly.

Might be running like crap though but if it's not running yet, be careful of any valve to piston contact

you can ask for anything but your chances of getting it are minimal since it was a private sale so it's a case of buyer beware. that's why buying engine off wreckers will cost you more because they generally come with a start up warranty, so in this case you would have been covered.

I'm still waiting for you to clear the air about your claims about TT. you read the post that SLED made and yet you didn;t see fit to reply.

SCANDY;

S1 R33 and R32 AFM will support around the 210-220rwkw, but the SII R33 (pink sticker, 3 wire plug) will support around the 235rwkw mark. i wouldn't pay more than $100 with the plug for one. I paid $55+20 for the plug for mine and if you look around you can still find them for that price.

how far down south do you live Daniel and how soon do you need it on the road?

Me or Matty could tow it up for you possibly.

if i had a winch on my trailer we'd be right..........but i dont :) and i dont hav my winch on the car yet (or a front towbar point for that fact)

nice. how much? :)

awesome. cheers dale. ill see what i can find.

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
