Just a quick update Finally got some dyno time and got on top of some little issues with the car.

I was having some boost controll issues that were holding me back in getting the tuning done.

I originaly had the motec running the factory boost solinoid wich turned out not to be up to the job. Borrowed a boost controller of a mate that and thougt that would have sorted the problem but the solinoid in that boost controller ended up being stuffed as well.So put the good old trusty bleed valve on the car temporarily and problem solved.

Ended up getting a preliminary tune up in the car the map is still a little bit fat and still need to trim the maps up a little but will get this done once the new boost controller goes in the car as no doubt the the boost curve will change once this is fitted so will need to fine tune everything to get the best out of it.

We got the boost up to around 20/21 psi with a safe tune in it the car is making 557.9 all wheel HP at 7100RPM. The RPM limit will be around 8500/8800 RPM. we didn't push it any further on the dyno as the car was starting to squirm around on the rollers a little but as can be seen on the dyno sheet the power was still climbing so I would estimate that it is probably in the vicinity of 580/590 all wheel HP at max RPM.

Will hopefully get the new EBC fitted and get it back on the dyno towards the end of the week or over the weekend and get a bit more boost into it as the HKS turbos only seem to really come alive and get into their eficiency range at around the 25psi mark going from previous experiance with these turbos. so hopefully will get some slightly better results once this is all sorted and the maps have been cleaned up.

So glad to finally be seeing some light at the end of the tunnel :) . Will have another update with a few pics of some nice new suspension parts in the next day or so as well.

F'N awsome Darren! Mat might get the idea to run some boost now.

Thanks for the comments guys I am looking forward to finnally getting a few laps in the car.

When are you going to be back up this way Richard will hopefully get a track day organized next time so yourself Mark, Russ, Myself and a few other tuff GTR's can all have a bit of fun.

how good are the ikeya front LCAs dazzmo? they are THE front LCAs to get. a much better design over others that just mirror the factory ones. and how farken huge are the castor rods. they never look big in pics but in your hand they are about 1.5 times the diameter of most aftermarket ones, and the way they mount into the LCA is so much better. you'll love them. :P

Hey Richard the ikea stuff is definatley the go well worth the extra coin and as you said the lca castor rod combo is definatley the best on the market. Have fitted all the arms now and what a difference they make a bit harsh on a average road but awsome on the smooth stuff and turn is is a massive improvement. Lucky for me I got a good deal on all the suspension gear as it is generally pretty exy but one of the best bang for buck mods you can get for a track car as far as lap times go.

Will be good to catch up again for a chat tommorow Paul just hoping we get a dry line on the track even better if the rain clears up for us but it is not looking like it. At least for me I am just treating it as a test session as I wont be trying to set a lap time or anything. Will only have 7000rpm to play with as am trying to sort out a ref sync issue with the ecu at higher rpm.

Angus I am putting a Getrag 6 speed in the car just standard gear set as this should be more than up to the job. Just waiting on a carbon tail shaft to turn up (not an ACPT after the debacle from the last group buy) I have sorced it from another company in the states. Nearly all the tuff R34GTR's in japan either run a stnd Getrag or a Holinger so should be able to handle the power without any problem.

Nice! i have a 34 Getrag in my 32 and i love it!! you wont be disappointed i somehow scored a nismo imput shaft with mine (tho finding a clutch was a pain) i'm going for fairly big power when i get it back on the road, 450kwatw + i hope. i herd that the weak link is the synchro's, which i've gotten in contact with someone in the States for aftermarket synchro's, if i was to ever go down that route. (obviously you know its the same box for the supra)

I still have my acpt shaft here.. hopefully it fits when the time comes! what a shit fight that was to organize...

cant wait to get it all together d day is approaching!! thanks for keeping me inspired!!

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
