OMG my sump crashed into a big ally box with blue bits on it.

I can see me at super cheap from now on.....

"Hi I need some cheap oil for an oil change. 3 bottles of whatever is on special...

"What, 1litre bottles?

"No, 5 each, Brad promised I'd never kill another bearing this way

That's a challenge I really trhink I am up to :(

hey evil chris.....in 10 days.....thus the rush! Oran Park last weekend of May. Wathc out dinosairs

yous drunker than me. I can still type coheirantly when i need too.

There's fancy shit inside it too!

I measured it and you will need 3 bottles of the finest. thats a pretty expensive oil change but still cheaper than a rebuild. Actually it costs me less to buy bearings than it does to buy oil now I think about it!

Still a bottle or two short of my tank!!

If you do another bearing Im dry sumping it and shoving the oil pump up Guss' arse!

There is nothing else we can do about oil control using this stupid pump layout.

Myt welds on that sump are actually pretty straight, needed another crownie before I welded it.

Indeed - no other GTRs entering this round? :blink:

Looks like my chances of getting there are better - but still could be impacted on stuff beyond everyone's control. The motor is in the car and will be running with a couple of hours work - then she just needs a run in, check the tune and it's right to go. Fingers crossed.

haha, that's be the day to attend!

His new donk should survive, or it friggin well better cause we don't have the spare built yet.

Sam spent ages checking and double checking then I spent ages checking again before it was assembled.

Duncan seems pretty happy with the sump and external pick up arrangement. The sump only JUST fits inside the sway bar and chassis rails. It held just shy of 14 litres from dry!

good stuff jay. and brad for providing the location :( still a lot to get it ready for the weekend but at least shes running.

Chris - its qual and race 1 on sat, or 2 races on sunday. sunday is probably a better day to watch.

well actually, if you wanted to see my car run.....waiting until sat was too late.

oil supply issue to the head led to a snapped cam while running it in - so I've gone from just making this round to missing it by a mile :D

    • 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. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
