Car Finially On The Road Again


Recommended Posts

Guest INASNT

After over a month of my car sitting at ice with problem after problem i finially get to drive it again, YAY!!!

The 550cc sard injectors, 044 pump, z32 afm, Power Fc, Greedy Profec B Spec 2, 9 Puck Cermaic clutch with 1200kg pressure plate, Lightened 4.5kg Chromemolly flywheel, Pineapples and Adj HKS Cam gear are all in and had a light tune with the Power Fc and got around 185rwkw@12psi .

The new custom made 3037S with 45mm external wastegate and custom high mount exhaust manifold are going on in the next few weeks. Same guy making my turbo as who made leewahs.

First with the exhaust cam gear set at -2.7 degrees, the profec b spec 2 setup properly with the pfc tune and lightened flywheel I am getting 12psi by 2000rpm!!!. Secondly the new clutch is farking heavy as and the friction point is mm off the the floor which means i have to rev to about 1500rpm before i can take off or else it stalls, so if i take off at 1500rpm, 500rpm later i have the full 12psi boost kick in. Not fun at all in the wet as I come off the clutch at the lights with the wheels already spinning before i even start to move. Should be more drivable when the new turbo setup goes on.

I recommend the lighhened flywheel to anyone as even tho i got the same peak rwkw as before with the ligtened flywheel and pfc tune it accelerates just so much faster and i got soooo much more midrange power now than before.

Will keep updated when new turbo setup finially goes on.

nice..nice! that 3037 might just stretch those internals a bit too much though I have a feeling..

u should take it to Calder before they put the new turbs on...

Pity I have given up the mod-chase with mine anymore... my next project I have in mind however should give u a nice little run in those tropics :) I'll only need about 230-240rwkw to match you too..

Clutch will wear in and be nice .. at first they're a bitch... the last owner of mine changed it recently before he sold it. For the first couple of months was a pig to start, esp in the wet! it was either stall or spin stupidly..but it sorted itself out.

I been driving around automatic hire cars the last few month so any clutch at the moment would be hard i guess.

The 3037 i am getting will be

Comp

56 trim/57.0 Inducer / 76.2 Major. Hosing - 0.6 A/R

Turbine

Wheel 84 Trim - 60 major /55 Exducer

Housing 0.87 A/R

What power did your car make?

I hope it looses a bit of its bite. And yes we should try go to Calder again but i am flying back to cairns on wednesday morning and returning friday morning. Fark i been over in cairns more in the last 3 months than been in melbourne, and the roads up ther west of cairns about 200km are just dead straight for about 5 km's in stages, its so tempting to just go full throttle.

As for the internals i have already scoped prices on weisco forged piston/rings and rods, mild ported head work, 1.6mm HKS head gasket and 260 duration intake/ext Tomei cams. They cost a bit but not 2 unreasonable.

U cant change the intake side with cam gears as then u will loose the nivac. I should be able to retard the timing to about -4 once the new turbo is setup and a bit more time is spent tuning the pfc. The exhaust cam gear, profec b and the pfc tune helped i recon the boost to come on so low plus its a series 2 so it uses the so called plastic comp wheel.

Denham....are you working your car up for the track or the drag strip? How many times have you had it on the track or run it at the strip?

Most prob drag strip, as not much track action goes on here in mel

We got 178rwkw peak, didnt want anymore plus the stock cooler was heating up, last run was 172rwkw with a little less boost. This was during SAFC tuning.

Feels so much better

Hey Denham,

Seems like the guy working on your turbo does look like the same guy who did mine ;) Good work on it all mate. Your car almost became part of the furniture mate. Pity you didn't have a huge spoiler, I wanted somewhere to put my Maccas the other day :D

I got Nittos if you wanna buy some.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
