G'day all,

Thanks for the 'votes' for my car. I wouldn't say my car is a typical Autosalon car but I guess it has a few of the major areas covered.

Andrew (nuttsHunglow),

I've never had my car in a full feature in a national publication. If you, and more importantly your editors think that my R33 is of the required standard (and is what you're looking for) I would be honoured to have it in a magazine.

It sure looks clean under the hood Matt........very nice ride.

Who did the mods on it?

see to the left hand side of the radiator there is a decal :D;) starts with B ends with X

Thanks Steve, I must need glasses.

I'm wondering if Shaun at BW only had a small role in the mods or whether he did the lot......sticker tells me maybe the latter.

Shame he hasn't got a 4WD dyno because he's only up the road from me.

He tuned andys R34gtr and ryans R32gtr with very nice results

I think Shaun or Troy did most or if not all of the fabrication work, but most of the bling bolt on stuff would have been done by himself i think/would have thought!!

not wrong about the 4WD dyno bit and a bigger more open premises on dyno days gets a little fumed out for my liking

I think Shaun said his lease was running up in a year i think, so i believe he might be looking for bigger premisis!! He is always flat out and needs the room for sure!!

G'day Pete, thanks. Yeah as the boys have said the majority of the work has been carried out by Shaun and Troy @ Boostworx, with a reasonable amount of time and effort put in by yours truly.

Hey all

I am sorry that I have not responded or stayed on top of this thread but I have been busy not just with the volume of email but also personal things. I am slowly going through the PM’s and I promise I will get to you shortly.

Andrew

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
