What is it like driving a car that takes until 5k before the power really kicks hard? Is it annoying on the street or is there still plenty of meat below 5k? Looks like a solid 200kw at 4k, does it feel good at the lower revs?

It might give that figure on the dyno but I can tell you now i reach fullboost on the road ALOT earlier then whatever it says on that sheet!

It feels fine.... You have to remember a stock GTR makes what.... 180 or 200 kw at the wheels stock.... It might only feel like it has "not much" because 1000 RPM later your making almost double that! To drive around in traffic is no worries at all.

If they made them yeah. :banana:

looks like they make em too me mate, :)

285/30/18 only prob you would have is finding wheels with the right offset to fit 285 under 32 guards.....

interesting, Last time i enquired they were not available.

What offset is required (say for 18 x 10's or 10.5's)? +18 or +22?

Other wise 265/35's might be the way to go?

you can stick 285 on a 9" or 9.5"

def not +18 i got 18x10 +18 on my car, the biggest i think ill fit under it is a 265, as the lip of the rim hangs out past the guard.

id say +22 or bigger, even +22 it would be close, on a 32R it would def need some guard work, you can fit 285s on a 10inch wheel no worries dont no about a 9inch but.

Get your TPS sorted Steve?

Dude, what a day. Started off not getting any sleep last night. Then on the way there in the rain in rwd it was SO difficult to stop it spinning the rears. Too much low end torque, seriously I was counter steering just trying to get away from a set of lights at less than normal speed. There was a hill start on king georges road-it just slowly moved the rear to the left every time I tried to get up the hill. Sounds fun, was frustrating. Ended up starting in 2nd which was still spinning but it made it up the hill. Stupid rain.

Got the tps, $95 and the thing is tiny. Ripoff.

THEN the autronic has a Fu(kout and needs two sensors replaced. Which means sending it away for repairs (not the first time it's been broken), it's got a problem with the map sensor and the water temp sensor. It thinks, for some reason, it thinks the water temp isn't going higher than 50 degrees eventhough it's at 70 something. And the map sensor now reads 1.5bar as 2bar and the boost cut is set at 1.9bar so it's unable to rev out cause the boost cut stops it. And it thinks it's still not warm enough so it wont let you rev high anyway (autronic feature).

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!

PFC for the WIN :)

or if you really wanna get a high tech ecu get a microtech :banana: lol jokes.

deano we could run the 285s but just have to raise our cars just a tad..... like 70 mm atleast.

im soooo keen for e85, come on gossy caltex hurry up and finish the tank works :D

Yavuz just rang me, he's trying something and is about to take it for a drive. I hope he's leaned it off otherwise it doesn't have enough fuel to go around the block. Had half a tank about 60ks ago

    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
