I would be tempted to fit bigger injectors and lean on the stock turbo a bit. The e85 will give you more power whilst running lower exhaust temps compared to ULP, so it should reduce the heat load on the exhaust wheel. I wouldnt be surprised to see 220rwkw at 15 psi with a stocker on e85

Ok last question.

After the injectors are installed, a decent tuner should take how many hours to do a full map on e85? keeping in mind I have it tuned on 98 at the moment. Plus I read that fuel filters were getting changed every few weeks for a while after is that true?

Apart from that all else should be sweet though right.

Its all the same stuff.

E85 either comes from CSR or Manildra. Unless Powerplus are making it themselves which i doubt.

As we were going through installing the new fuel system all parts that were taken off the car were inspected, everything looked great :)

The injector O-rings are not brittle and have no sign of cracks or premature wear at all. I was comparing them to a new set that i have and i cannot tell the difference between the two.

To save you scrolling up on this page, here it is again :bunny:

Mines not the injector O rings that are the problem, rather the O ring between the fuel filler and the tank has swelled and no longer seals.

The car is a 1990 but even a brand new nissan o ring seems to swell up and fail to seal. Perhaps their manufacturing changed in the r33 series of cars?

didn't bother doing a cold start on mine....

it starts....

eventually

I jack up the cold start enrichment by around 25% at -10C and +10C, then 15% at +30C and finally 10% at +50C. I leave 80C alone, although some guys have found adding 5% works OK there as well.

You might want to have a look at the cranking time, it depends on your injector speed and type. Have a play, you can't hurt anything, after all E85 doesn't contaminate the oil like petrol.

Cheers

ok

1. gary... you're alive!

2. thanx man, would have a look but the car needs another tune on e85 anyway as we found a split cooler hose was present at the time of the last one... i'll pass those values on to trent.

wonder how much more my injectors have in them..... they were pretty far on 311rwkw with e85 cant remember the max dc atm (not 100 lol), but should be looking @ 325-330rwkw if they can make it...

740's??? mine maxed out at around 335 340rwkw

Haven't been on here for a while and last time i was there was talk of unavailability issues?

How's that all looking now? Who and where's stocking the good stuff?!?!?!?!?! (In Vic)

My car is going in in a month and i sure as hell want a re-tune on E85 but it'll be availability dependant!!!

Cheers!

when i go to hoppers i fill the tank and 2 x 20lt jerry's as well... that's right on $100

i also keep a 20lt sunoco tin with e85 stored on a crate in the garage so that i can change the map to e85 before i leave the house :P

740's??? mine maxed out at around 335 340rwkw

My 555's maxed at 337rwkw on E85...

I have upgraded to 850 Sards and am now seeing anywhere from 80-85 inj duty on my Power FC and making a consistant 350rwkw on E85 with a base pressure of 43.

Your 555's still have more in em on E85 joeyjoejoe imo.

Maybe the 2 Mainlines and 1 DD were reading high who knows but thats my experience so far.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
