r30 skylines

[rsx84]

drag combat coverage tonight on fox sports 1 if anyone has it.. looks like its going to be awhile before my cars on the road..

']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..

[Ghostrider]

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.

Could? Or they do?

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!

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...

www.wolfems.com.au some of there older versions have been used with fj's with thier newer versions they are going for the plug-in and play approach.. ask one of the 1600 places!

[Boof]

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!!

[0HR-30T]

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.

[[ant]]

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

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

[rsx84]

i was quoted $2400 for the LINK system fitted and tuned but thats for the rb20det though or getting the standard ecu rechipped and tuned for $700 from uni-chip..

[Ghostrider]

If needed I am going to try the new Hawk, but first I will use a Factory ECU that came from an R32 GTSt that had a RB25DET dynoed @ 245rwkw.

The Hawk fitted and running will be about $2000.00

[Boof]

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

[rsx84]

.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!

[PHaT MR30]

oh my mate ran a microtech DIGI 1 (or was that 2??) on his FJ20.

you can pickup alot of stuff second had cheap and on ebay and stuff, i know a few guys that have been doing so recently.

what ecu's out there are able to run in closed loop? i know my microtech doesn't

[Adam_RSX]

I want to run something that can be returned to standard really easily

[Boof]

So just get it piggy backed into the original loom Adam..Thats how mine is going to be setup, so i can switch computers in 5 min's or so easy as!!

[rsx84]

another topic: whats the off set for the r30? would it be the same as the r31 as these rims fit the r31 and i want the 17" for the r30...

[boyd1234_5]
