My car's been of the road for 2 months now.. hopefully back on the road in a month if not 3. So I know how you feel (slightly :thumbsup:)

Left her at 240kw.. will come back with 320kw or so on run in, and 400kw when finished..

Can't wait. Have fun tomorrow!

jeeeezuz i waited 6weeks for my s15 and was already planning an assasination of the mechanic.

You must have had the engine built.....obviously. Any details on the specs? turbos, internals and ECU

but the question most of us want to know is......................what shop did you take it to???

Does most of you have more than 1 car??

how do you guys mange to do your daily stuff when your only car is in the workshop for like couple months.

I understand it is alright for people who has a secondary car, but for others -- Public transports?

man I am so hanging to get mine, should be one day next week hopefully.

I bought it from Japan on 28 August, it finally arrived in WA and I took delivery of it complied and registered at 5.14 pm on October 21 with a genuine 58221 kms, set of M's pods and a kakimoto N1 Premium cat back system on it. At 5.33 I dropped it off at x-speed and I have not had it back yet......

The mod list is extensive, they promised me 3 weeks and it will be returned.... stay tuned. Let's just say the guys were pretty excited with three boot loads of aftermarket goodies I dropped off for them to install.....

friggin hell i cannot wait

Ive waited 11 months! Still waiting.

Not the workshop though. I sent it to a specialist engine builder who dragged the chain ridiculously.

Cant complaint though, just meant I could pump more money into the rest of the car while I waited.

It will be back any day now and I chewing at the bit waiting!

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
