']wats the max power u can get from a stock turbo FJ? just curious.

and also wat management systems are you guys running? do u have seperate coils rather than sticking with dizzy n shit? (on FJ20s if ne1 has em!)

wolf 3D are good for the fj, they could also be able to provide a simple plug in and play system for you now, $1500+ tuning..

has anyone found info on r30s on any other forums?

There was some discussion on Skylines Downunder until the KIWI's got all funny.

Probably because it is their forum, but were out numbered by aussies, on all forum topics excluding NZ.

But absolutely nothing like this thread.

And there was a Nissan Skyline - Paul Newman sales publication on ebay the other day, that I think I beat crimmo to. By the sounds of the advert, it may have some interesting info in it that I will post.

Things like "wind tunnel tests" etc, on all 1983 > R30 models including DR's & HR2000GT ES & 4 dr's & Hatch 2000GT E etc.

1.  Mobil 75W/90 full synthetic is the oil. It performs as well as Royal Purple, Penrite, Castrol etc and is readily available for top up when necessary.

2.  My R200 4.1:1 is a mechanical CUSCO centre LSD with 80 odd lb preload and I have a Nissan 3.9:1 as a spare.

3.  No! the car is not on the road at present, but as soon as it is I'm heading your way sort of, got to see a mate on The Gold Coast.

1.Sounds good.

2.Good to know,as I'm sure the R32> R200's with the viscous lsd wouldn't need the same spec oil as the early mech R200's.I've ben wanting to confirm a good mech lsd oil with someone who actually has one,not a sales person who thinks an HR31 coupe is a fancy Pintara.

3.Any estimates on when it will be? You'll have to stop over in Port Macquarie on your way...you know,stop,revive,survive.....and so I can check out the '30! :cheers:

I had an EMS QI-4 fuel and ignition ecu running mine.Used the stock FJ dizzy.The EMS was good,could work with several factory pick-up systems.

I'd like to go multi-coil in the future though...

Only problem with the wolf that i know of with the FJ dizzy is u have to get it modified...Bit of hassle for someone like me in SA where if i get defected then i have to try to find a standard FJ dizzy...I am considering going for the EMS 8860 seems like a good piece of equiopment!!

Ghostrider i beleive that u might've beaten Crimmo to that, i was talkin to him last week and he was telling me about that book seems like its quite a handy piece of gear to aquire!!

Yeah the 8860 sound as good as a Motec on paper,and you couldn't complain at $1600.....

If you try getting in touch with EFI Hardware www.efihardware.com they have a programmable ECU (HAWK) and has been working on plug & play systems.

The Hawk has had some pretty good reviews from Zoom when they last did a comparison.

Cost is only $1300.00 or there abouts, but don't know if anyone does them in Adelaide. They seem to be Haltec mad in Adelaide.

Wolf do the V4 Plug & Play ECU which is $1395 for the ECU itself then install and tuning take it to around $2200 ready to drive away. but then i think u have the cost of the multi coil setup added to that so it could get pretty expensive :D

but todd off these forums with white dr30 here in perth is happy with his he is running Wolf V4 with multi coils and making 360 odd rwhp quite happily!

i was hoping for a cheaper sortof alternative like microtech or something is all. wondering if anyone has gone that way. i only earn 200 a week doing nightfill so was hopin there mite be a cheaper one that'd do the trick! that EMS 8860 i guess is $1600 just for the ECU, then tuning install etc would run it out a few hundreed more expensive that the Wolf V4 p&p i guess.

ah well i dont have 2k+ for an ECU atm neway, but i guess it seems Wolf V4 is gona be the way to go in the end :) :) better hope santa brings me a big wad of cash this year haha

Yeah thats what i rekon to!! My mate is currently having it setup on his series 4 and its a pretty wild motor in there so once thats all done then i shall decide, but so far im impressed with it all! :aroused:

Ghostrider : not everyone in adelaide is haltech mad, but the majority of people here are..If not then like PFC al depends on who u go to really, so many people deal with the same ecu's so its not like deepnds on the workshop u goto depends what ecu u use cause most of them will use 99% of ecu's available

.75 degrees sideways, just bought a r31 with an rb20det in it running a older wolf3D, version 3 i think, the bloke who had it before didn't know that there is a locking system that requires a pin number to start the car if active. my mate went to change the pin and the car wont start!!! had to sent the computer to sydney to get it changed to the new pin so it will work...poor bastart had the car for 24 hours then its been sitting there for the last 48 unable to be driven!

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
