ok all!

well tomorow is the day that my 75 hp Zex Nitrous Oxide kit gets put in (can take up to 2 days), then after that, the 12" Sub is going in along with the led tail lights,

and once that is all done, the girl will be going done to Southern Hi Tech Dyno to have the Apexi Power FC installed, along with some R34 GTT Fuel Injectors put in, and some special spark plugs that are needed to go with the NOS Kit, and then its all tuning, tuning, tuning

with the hope of some very good results, without the nos, and with :) we are hoping to crack over 200kW with the NOS)

will let you all know what happens.

sweet

wet or dry kit?

the interesting thing will be the torque curve b4 and after

the awesome thing about a nos kit is the torque they create - as power is generated from torque

and your exhaust is the right size too - a nos'd engine should have a decent size exhaust as it flows a damn lot when you hit that button....

i could imagine seeing a graph of 200kw and 700+nm of torque.....

Looking forward to this cara!..

I see you went down the PFC way.. Well its a good choice now you spilled the beans on the NOS too..

Just make sure your passenger footwell dosnt blow out during your first drag reace.. :w00t:

lol, "i think that hundred shot of nos, blew in intake welds of your mainfold" whilst the footwell somehow came undun and flew out the back of the car. great movie lol

Great work Carla, i wish i had that kinda dosh to fork out at once, should be a massive increase in power, will be great down a strip, how the rest of the suspention and breaks are going to be up to the task on the 1/4 or track, would love to see some results cause im not sure i've seen anything on any na skylines with nos.

What else is planned for this beast, i like wats going on atm but would love to hear some more plans, im a little suprised you chose nos so early would have though you would have at least some form of adjustable cam's first to ustilise some of the full potential of the extra oxygen entering the system, but as mentioned earlier the 3" exhaust will help heaps with your extra breathing

Haha classic!!! gotta love the ole passenger footwell comming loose!

How long does the wet kit last? how much does it cost to top it? Or have i been

watching too many movies...? haha...no clue. BUT it sounds nice :rofl: 200Kw N/A good

hope you get it!

nice work, certainly have been keeping that a secret. have you done your clutch yet? that would be a definite priority on the list.

the power fc should definitely come in handy. you're looking at high 13s/low 14s with a decent launch.

Cara you will love it!! 75hp is about perfect for the 25's and makes them a hell of alot more fun to drive :) as eug said with your setup i would expect very low 14's high 13's from it.

There a big stigma about NOS but i never had any problems with it, as long as it done properly.

the clutch is still on list.....wont be too much longer b4 i get....its holding ok at the moment, and cause im only using the nos for the dyno/track....i just wont go use the nos on the track until i have sorted out the clutch and flywheel.

my fuel injectors will be coming next monday, as that is the earlist the guy i am getting them from can send them, which is fine....

whats next???? hmmm.........defintely stage 2 cams are looking good, with bigger valve springs and getting the hgeads shaved back and bored out.

i concolidated my loan so i went for a little extra money to get soeme stuff done to the car....im glad i did cause it now means that i can focus on saving up for the cams etc over xmas and c what happens from there.... cant wait to see how the car takes the power fc, can get between 10-20 kW increase, maybe more though, and i dont really know about the injectors, i think the stock R34 N/A ones are 250 or 275 cc and the stock R34 GTT ones are 350 or 375 cc, so there is a bit of a difference, so hoping for the best

i dont need to get a bigger fuel pump yet, but ive written it down as on the things to get in the next few months.

ive been asked to go to the mildura drags one weekend when they are next one, will definatly see if i can go and see what kind of 1/4 mile time the girl can run, with and without nos.

i have a show next weekend (dec 8/9 and apprantly i am the only one with nos that is going on the dyno, even though i wont count for my final kW's, it will still be used to put on a show for the crowd.....

Sounds like you got everything pretty well sorted..

Are you sure you wont be needing a fuel pump?

When I did an engine swap with an RB25DET into an R32 with an RB20DET fuel pump, the car wasnt makeing any more power after 4K And thats with a 220 RWKW engine

So Im asuming that an NA pump will have the same if not less L/min capacity than a 2L turbo.

And cos the engines will have similar power outputs, from my experince.. the fuel pump will have to be swapped..

Where will the NOS be injected into the ingine? Mani? Intake? Direct?

well i spoke to my dyno guy yesterday (John is putting the power fc in, the injectors and tuning...oh so much tuning) and i asked him if i would need to get a fuel pump, and he said not right now. (nd he knows everything that i am getting done)

but i just found out that the n/a injectors are 259 cc and the gtt injectors are 370 cc

from what Phu was telling me (he is putting in the nos kit down at Emtech automotive) it will go through one of intake manifold thingos (see pic, its the area that is circled in blue). so it will put in directly.

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day  
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
    • Are you 100% sure this isn't tune related?
    • 140-150 across the board. At this point hoping the grounding harness fixes it. My grounds are all tied to the chassis and none to the battery. For SR and KA that’s never been a problem for me but had a few other guys here and Reddit who told me RB really like a very solid ground setup tied to the battery so going to try that next, I’m stumped if that doesn’t do it. Never had a car have spark and fuel and not fire off before. Only thing I can think is the spark is intermittent/weak because of grounds nothing else really makes sense at this point 
    • I am having close to the same issue. Can you help me with what wire you grounded to get your pump to trigger?
