Thought I'd stick the build pocess of the second evolution of my 260RS.

My car came off the road in February after an incident involving 2 blocked injectors, an incorrectly added 8 degrees of timing advancement, 30PSI boost spike and 8,500RPM.

So I left it off the road to do the car once and for all (audio, aesthetics, power).

I have this thing for stainless steel. Every bolt in the engine bay is stainless allen key head cap screw. Every nut and washer stainless. Whether is is for the engine, guards, brackets, clips, whatever, it's all stainless. The doors are held on by stainless bolts, the interior panels throughout the entire boot are stainless, so too is everything with the audio. I needed to make a battery clamping system. I had several ideas, then binned them so I could use stainless.

Yes, I need to go to Stainless Anonymous...

The wiring nightmare....

This is the charging system and sub lines. It's kind of messy, but at least this way it is very easily tracable for all the wires (IGN, ACC, front battery, rear batteries, EQ's fibre optical lines, EQ IP BUS line, solenoid, voltmeter earths, ammeter earths, fuse breaker earths, fuel pumps relay system, system remote relay system...) The list keeps going...

At least it is all hidden...

DSC00295_.jpg

The front is back on. All parts repainted or replaced. Stainless cap screws as per usual...:

Door panel made. It's been dropped off to get covered:

Stereo all works. Rather loud... Needs a serious tune though. I'll do that when the car is finished

Making a cold air box (template) that seals on the bonnet itself. There is surprisingly little room in an engine bay with no engine in it. Height was the issue really...

Feet...

Like a glove:

There a couple of mm spare to allow for the sealing system:

Templates getting cut then thermal procoated.

The intercooler is kind of deep (115mm):

So I modified the bumper:

DSC00494_.jpg

Figured I may as well move the oil cooler again, and will modify the bumper more by adding a side air scoop / duct for the oil cooler:

And now the bits that bolt onto the plenum are shiny too:

all those photo's make me dizzy. :P

shall be one hell of a 260RS (and debt for that matter) when its done however..

that engine crane is a bloody good idea!

i assume it lets you adjust the angle of the engine? i had issues as i dropped the whole engine and box in mine, and the angle had to be steep to get the box under the tunnel, then i struggled to pull it back up and drop the engine on the mounts.

PS: what are you lurking down there for dale? still trying to clean up the mess you made? >_<

AHH superb project Simon!! Nice to hear from you again. The photos makes me HIGH!!!! LOL!!

Very good. what is your expected final Kw at the tune? Give me your address too (kidding!!) Damn how i wish i was an engineer!!!

Ohh Ilike the "ASS lube "too. >_<

Most of us here own a Stagea, but this is undoubtably THE Stagea to rule all!

Good work - that's gotta take a hell of a lot of dedication, money and sanity.

There was a heavily-modded 260RS for sale on J-Spec a few weeks ago, but it's got nothing on this monster!

    • 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.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
