i'm in but at jem they said i had some high end pinging and that thing sitting at the front of the rb25 engine had to be moved clockwise by a mm or something, the guy just loostend the bolts and tapped it around a few times with a spanner and said that should be it...... he didnt re dyno it to see if the pinging did go away....

if its not it and the guys at uas says there some pinging and that thing needs to be moved around again will they do it???? it only takes a minute to do but you need a dyno to know if the prob has been fixed..... i really dont care if they wanna charge me for another dyno run (id rather they didnt charge me for another run) aslong as the prob is fixed because at the moment i'm advised not to let the revs get past 7000rpm or risk damage to the head gaskets or something.....

also should have a fmic by then, mabey a boost controller

if youve got logs of your car pm me and I can have a look at your logs and ecumap if you want

lol no you wont ill be on a skidpan instead

Get your boat ready!

I was thinking of trying to sneak a bottom end build in before this but even if I have what is called good luck for me I might get it back 2012 :wacko:

See you near the frying pan

I made a post saying I'm interested in this, but am still fairly clueless has to how a "dyno day" actually goes. Do I just rock up with my car and put my name on a list? What happens next? :>

Edit: Just to clarify, I know what a dyno is. What sort of knowledge can I come away with from a dyno day?

Yep you show up whenever you want, then see one of the people with an SAU shirt on (wont be hard to miss, one will be holding a clipboard), so over and say hi, then its basically a case of "join the back of the line" :P

You pays your money and you gets your car puts on the dyno. They runs it 3 times and then gives you a print outs of the power and the AFR (air/fuel ratios) and the boost. They tells you if it is running ok or too rich or too lean or pings so you knows what condition your tune is in. You gets to see how much powers you gots and if your boost holds steady. You gets to see how rich or lean your AFR's is.

Dont like my chances of winning, do like the idea of setting my rears on another dyno to confirm the performance results.

Can we have highest highflow category? lol

I don't like the idea of creating a category just so I can win it. :D hehe

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
