Well it looks like theres 9 interested parties for ESP. I will give them a call next week probably to see if I can sort out a date. Need at least 10 for this they said. If theres not enough then it wont go ahead. Any people got dates that wont work for them?

I'm trying to think about what track days are on so we don't clash with them. Add to the list if anyone is aware of any other track days on a Saturday (many are on Sundays)

Autosports track day - Wakefield Park on Saturday March 15th

SAU NSW are talking a Wakie track day on a Saturday late in Feb.

Dammit - still waiting on the new turbo to go in. Looks like it'll be done by the end of February. I'd be interested after then. Ultimate Tunes has an awesome screen and display and friendly guys. Autotech had a titchy little screen - lame. Dunno about ESP. Anyone know what their setup is?

Ok talked again to esp we do need at least 10 cars for this. ESP ideally needs 4 weeks notice before the dyno day, best to start at 10am or earlier, can do either on Saturday or sunday. So at this stage if theres enough interest would be sometime in march.

I need genuine interest and whether your available sat or sunday early march.

Don't know much about ESP apart from their dyno being awd. Some other people have been there before, maybe able to tell people more about them.

Ok at this stage will set a date for Saturday Morning 8th of March (maybe open to the 9th if enough people are interested.) Will start at 10am, better to have it at that time, as cooler temps. Not really good to do it in the arvo.

So Speak up if your in or out. For either days that weekend. If I don't have at least 10 by next monday its off, as the minimum is ten, alternatively I can try and arrange something with autotech, but that is 2wd only.

Do you reckon the the dyno at esp can handle the Starlet? I should prob go last, just so you guys get a go before the dyno breaks.

im out, unless it changes to sunday, but my car might still be able to make it?

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • 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
