if im getting the ECU tuned can i run bigger injectors then?

say maybe some GTR injectors or something? whats the easiest and cheapest option when it comes to injector upgrade with tuned ECU? I mean its a not a huge turbo so i wouldnt be expecting more than 320rwhp out of it... so what would enable me to safely run 300rwhp (220rwkw)? or will my stockies be able to SAFELY handle such power?

The tuned ECU will only handle the same impedance injectors, which can limit your choice. I believe there are resistor packs you can buy to modify the impedance to work with the stock ECU.

Injectors are expensive, a fuel reg isn't:D

yeah well like i said the reg has already been ordered so i will be running it, i figured if it was easy to upgrade injectors when getting the ECU tuned i could grab some 2nd hand GTR injectors as ive seen them advertised on this forum pretty cheap.

Ill see what i can get out of the pump with regulator first then maybe tune the ECU.

Problem is ive already gone over budget and dont want to spend anymore!!! NOOOOOO but hey its addictive!

bbenny, that turbo is an awesome combo on the rb20, injectors can stretch to 230rwks no probs with a decent fuel pump and pressure reg. Several guys have been running that sort of power out of them for years with no probs.

It may be worth getting a metal afm to turbo pipe, as I have seen them start to choke at about 200rwkw.

Paul, once its fitted, the cost will be forgotten:D (or at least excused:p )

steve: 230rwkw is awesome! are these guys running std computer? i hope i can acheive that sort of power!

Nissky: Procar is in Cromer (northen beaches) the guys there are really nice too, i had never been there until recently on a dyno day. then booked it in last week and was suprised how cheap they were! so i dont mind making changes and getting it back on there.

But they dont burn chips for ECU's so i need to find a good place that does.

Thats what i like to hear :)

ill be very happy if i get anything over 200rwkw but 230 is just awesome! well i pick up my new pump and reg tomorrow so hopefully ill fit it all after work and see what i get on the dyno.

Your doing better than me Benny.

I got my car tuned at Procar and hit 251rwhp at 0.8bar on my rb25t. My AFM is the problem at the moment so the other day I went down to Envy Imports and bought a Z32AFM + plug for $260. Hopefully now I can get it tuned at 1.1bar or so (aiming at 300rwhp).

Out of interest, who put it on the dyno? Paul or Jake?

Mark

Neither paul or jake actually, i cant remember his name, a young guy Gorban or something (it was an unusual name) nice guy and knew what he was on about.

the guys at envy are always really helpful, thats who ive ordered my pump and reg from. are you running std computer?

What about SAS? Silverwater Automotive Services.

Local chiptorque agents!

They are Chiptorque agents so should be able to help.

SAS did a friends car, with good results. They also help out with a lot of the Horsepower heros cars at the Summernats, so obviuosly know their way aroud tuning modded cars.

However knowing what they charged for friends car, and what they quoted me for a re-written RB20 chip they are expensive. I suppose you get what you pay for.:)

bbenny i was eyeing off Chris' 2530 as well, dont be too happy with it, youll make me jealous:D

GT2530 Turbo Is Good For 220rwkw to 250rwkw got one myself on a 96 gtst.

Having problem though seems to give off a popping sound in between gear changes the sound is comming from the rear (Travelling Down The Exhaust). Sounds like a misfire but is very faint sometimes it is louder but no where near a bang. Doesnt happen if i change fast and get back onto the throttle before the revs drop.

Also doesnt happen when the foots down or when above 4000rpm roughly

Need Help PLz

Yeah the 2530 doesnt usually make over 250rwkw, but remember it has a pretty fat mid range - so its a wicked setup for the street. extremely quick!

Im picking up the bosch pump and sard reg tonight so hopefully ill stick it in tomorrow and throw it back on the dyno to see what happens.

then get the ECU tunned.

Roy: yeah ive heard pretty much what you are telling me about SAS - they know their stuff but charge twice as much as most. I was quoted around $1300 from them a while ago and decided against that and to buy a new turbo instead to make the power.

But looks like i have no choice now

anyone know reasonable tuning shops in sydney? someone that knows skylines maybe...

    • Thanks for posting, your engine bay looks tops. I'm fairly sure you posted the wrong video though, I think you were supposed to upload the one from your "private test road" where it's banging off the limiter with the gate open?
    • This is something to be careful of. I did a bit of digging on the NM35, as I spend a lot of time on near brand new cars and CANBus related stuff, which uses the same "OBD2" plug for a fair chunk of making my life easy. The NM35, does NOT support OBD2. The data pin is actually on Pin3, which is a manufacturer specific pin, and requires Consult3 to connect to the NM35. Your low voltage, is either because the NM35 doesn't have 12V to the constant power pin on the J1962 (OBD2) connector, OR, it is attempting the standard comms, (CanBus, K Line, etc) and can't see any voltage on those pins. Some people have had success accessing SOME data from the vehicle on OBD2 specification, using a module that supports KPW. My assumption, like Duncan has stated, it will likely actually be JOBD, where there is some cross over with the OBD2 and JOBD standards. Note, lots of "OBD2" dongles, do NOT support KPW, which is what you need for a lot of Japanese vehicles of this era (And even up until recent years!), EG, Subaru, Suzuki, etc.    The end of this thread is probably worth a read, as some people did find a way to get a display up in the NM35 recently, looks like someone implemented all the stuff needed to make it work. (The right protocols).  
    • Depending on the purpose of the car, and how much more fabbing you want to do, and what clearances you have, you could look to raise the motor, which will raise the front diff up. Likely would mean altering the chassis rails etc etc, hence the more fab work you'd need to do. However, this can create issues, not just in clearance with everything fitting under the bonnet, but you've also raised a LOT of weight up in the car, and this will DEFINITELY alter handling characteristics (But, so will how much weight you've already added to the front end). You'll also have to deal with the fact the gearbox to rear diff is now out of alignment too for the tail shaft, and alter the angle of the diff, or deal with a bit of potential vibration. Raising the motor an inch up, is effectively the same as making the whole car sit higher by not lowering it as far. So one inch higher motor, theoretically means you can drop the car an extra inch lower, and maintain the same angles in the CVs. Again, depends on the purpose of the car. If it's a just cruiser on the street car, maybe won't be an issue. If it's meant to be a time attack car, I can see you not wanting to raise the motor. This is just for you to ponder as an idea.
    • Have you not seen geospy.ai? It can now give GPS co ords to within a metre from a photo, even if it's a random photo you take inside. Supposedly at the moment only the government/law enforcement has access to that... Supposedly...
    • I've got the rear ones, they're certainly beefy. I need to take them to my driveshaft guru to check over, he's very fussy about the quality of components so I'll let you know if they are made of cheese by a blind man.   Are you in Australia? A mate just had a set of EN26 shafts made for his K20 Lotus by our fabricator which were quite cheap (compared to Driveshaft Shop) so if you can procure the CV's and draw what you need he'd make them for ~$800 for the pair.
