What area are you in? Its at a few places now, so if the skyline isn't your daily driver you'll be fine.

You're talking a 2.6L right? Mine maxed 1000's at 403rwkw but its an rb30 - capacity makes a difference.

I'm near blacktown... as far as I know the closest one is at richmond

and I dont have a 2nd car so the skyline is the daily... even though it doesnt get driven everyday

I see that stated a lot but can't understand why! Can you explain why would engine capacity makes a difference?

Because bigger capacity motors make more torque and hence don't usually rev as much to make the same power.

Oh of course - we really should be talking about what torque the injectors max out at since that will be related to airflow - not at what power.

Yeah it can be a bit confusing, being as pulse width is static all that changes is duty cycle. So even though at high rpm more fuel is being injected over time, less fuel is being injected per pulse. So if you have fuel pump issues etc you might see it leaning out at high rpm but fine at peak torque, but if the injector is the issue it will lean out at peak torque.

I think I've got that correct, also explains why injectors required to make x rwkw can vary wildly as seen in this thread.

Just out of curiosity do people ever play with the pulse width to try and get more out of injectors, or will that cause a drop in pressure? Or are injectors designed to operate at a specific pulse with, assuming I haven't got this all ass about?

Ermington might be a little closer? its 10-15 from my place (Parra/westmead)

so talked to a reputatble tuner (in sydney) tonight

he's going to be tuning my car going forward

i've decided to go with a Haltech for dual maps

BP98 shoud get be 320-330 all day everyday

and with e85 he said I'll be able to run 27psi and the motor should be fine (he said he's done a fair few unopened RBs with this much boost and its all fine)

and he also said it should crack 380-400kw with e85 :banana:

also asked him about cams and cam gears

with -9s he said there is no need for cams (which seems to be the consensus on here as well)... nor cam gears (which I thought was a little weird)

but I'm gonna go with what he says and see what happens

car should be going in about 5-6 weeks so will keep you all updated

P.S dont start bashing the tuner or me... positive comments only please :thumbsup:

Do eeeeet!!!

Graphs of two pls....with RPM

Thank you

Pls come again

edit...

An update this guys thread while youre at it

Hey guys quick question.

Is there any real need for a hard pipe kit at around 300kw.

Couldn't hurt could it?

Just gathering bits up for turbo upgrade and wondering if its a good idea.

Cheers

Luke

I think you'll find Rolls is just messing around, or forgetting this isn't an RB20/25 thread :)

Hard pipes are not required for 300rwkw. Spend the money on improving a different area.

    • LOL.... a good amount of people (not all) on that continent seem to know everything and like to measure things in bananas, football fields, statue of liberties instead of the metric system lol.
    • I assume the modules are similar enough, so if you've had no issues I don't see why I would. I have tried to find a wiring diagram for the FPCM / fuel pump circuit, but I can't find it anywhere. Otherwise, I would just do some wire cutting and joining at the FPCM and give the 12 V supplied to the FPCM directly to the pump instead. If you know anyone that could help with wiring diagrams, I'd be very happy  
    • If it dies, then bypass. The task isn't difficult. I have one running on a standard R32 FPCM. That's after nearly 20 years of it running an 040, which pull substantially more current than the Walbro. They're not the same module, but I'd hope it indicates that the R33 one should be man enough for the job. I think people kill them when putting proper sized pumps on them, not these little toy pumps we're talking about here.
    • Silicone spray won't hurt anything. And if it does, that's an opportunity to put some solid steel spherical bushings in, so you can really learn what suspension noise sounds like, If you're going to try it, just spray one bush at a time, so you can work out which one is actually noisy. My best guess is that if the noise started only since putting the coilovers in, then it is just noise being transmitted up through the top mounts of the struts, and not necessarily "new" noise from bushes. But it's almost impossible to know.
    • Are you saying the 34 is SUV height, and not that we're talking about an SUV here? (because if we're talking about an SUV, you don't fix them. You just replace them when something breaks. Not worth establishing sufficient emotional connection with an SUV to warrant doing any work on one). I wouldn't jack my car up on a short little loop of 10mm steel rod poking out through a hole in the bumper bar, front or rear end. I realise that we're probably not talking about that type of loop at the front, being the one under/behind the bar on a Skyline.... but even for that one, trying to jack up on what amounts to a thin piece of steel, designed purely for withstanding a horizontal tension force, not a vertical compressive force (and so would be prone to buckling/crushing) and, my most particular bitch about it - located RIGHT AT THE EXTREME FRONT OF THE CAR, applying a load up through the radiator support panel, etc, with almost the entire mass of the car cantilevered between there and the rear wheels? Nope. Not doing that. Not on the regular. That structure out there in front of the front crossmember is not designed to carry load in the vertical direction. Not really designed to carry any load at all, really. The chassis rail that the tow point is connected to would be fine loaded in tension, as per towing. Not intended to carry the mass of the whole car, especially loaded all on one rail, with twisting and all sorts of shitty load distribution going on. No, I will happily drive up on some pieces of wood, thanks. That can only happen on driven wheels, and they are at the other end of the car, and this problem does not exist at that end of the car. And even then, I have been known to drive up on at least 1x piece of 2x8 each side at the rear, simply to reduce the amount of jack pumping necessary to get the car up high enough for the jack stands. What really really shits me about Skylines is the lack of decent places for chassis stands at either end of the car. You'd think they'd be designed into the crossmembers.
