lol.

I'll have a little run about banga by this dyno day so I might run that up as well.

Not sure what to buy. Thinking about an old 5speed CA20 Bluebird, reasonable sized, good on fuel and go fairly well for what they are. Not many around at the moment. Not sure what they go for either.

yeah Joel Bluebird ftw there great cars and they don't die plus there a 2lt ;) sr20det drops straight in or is that a little trouble the CA18det drops straight in my preference is sr20 :P TRX for all the options :D

won't put myself down for sure at the moment, not quite sure whats going on with work ect.

knowing my luck my car will break down in the middle of a run. If anything i'll come down and have a look and a bbq

lucky schutzenfest is the week before

hey~! sounds good. with the plenty of notice, i should be able to come down~!! hopefully i'll get a few mods done by then, and will be my first dyno day~!!

put me down plz~!

cheers~!

I should be back from my holidays in time to come check it out & sign up.

there is a Delete button next to the EDIT button

looks like this p_delete.gif

Think that option only appears for donators unless it's been changed since the upgrades.

No probs Simon. Keen to check it out. :P

Hillzy,

So your currently not driving your car?

If its going to blow up it will blow up on the road. If your worried about running it up on the dyno definitely do not give it a boot on the road as the road is not a controlled environment; you can't hear or see it pinging so you keep your foot in to it and BANG! :)

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
