good stuff glad to hear that Paul and Stace have official RH9

thanks guys

Wow what an eventful evening....

only two passes, still having trouble keeping belts on it. Looks like the alternator has not been installed correctly as it does not appear to be in line with the balancer and water pump pulley.

ok

1st pass only used 20psi and launched to a 60' of 1.5sec, i didn't shift the car too well and when the alternator/water pump belt came off at 3/4 track rolled though at 128 MPH and ran a 10.5. had to get towed back to the pits...not a great start to the night.

We worked in the pits to try a few things to get the pulley's to line up properly and found the bottom of the alternator that attaches to the block not tightened...damn! Bolted it up properly, re-installed the belts and went out to have another run.

2nd pass turned the boost up to 25psi got it to really hook up off the line... 1.44 60'. The 1st to 2nd shift was also pretty neat (for my standard anyway) so when the belt flew off again at the top of 2nd (just past 1/2 track) i thought fu(k it and grabbed 3rd and kept my foot into it. Keeping my eye on the Power FC hand controller water temp reading (i have no water pump) and the other on the finish line went through the traps with the water temp reaching 87deg, but fortunately stopping the clocks at 9.998 secs with a MPH of 137.26. Unfortunately had to be towed back to the pits again, but the 9 was in the bag.

Big thanks to Jim Souvas and Croydon Racing for providing us with a monster engine and an awesome tune. After speaking with Jim this evening he is confident that there is a lot more to come with this set-up.

LTSjayce from Canberra gave me an envelope some time ago that was only to be opened in the event of a 9 sec pass.....

it contained two RH9 stickers...

they were put on in the pits while enjoying the moment with a few of the SAU boys.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
