Morning mang

Im guessing here, but i reckon the 88/88/80 is the amount of dish, and the 51/39/31 probably has something to do with how much brake clearance you get...

EDIT: Or possibly the other way round...

Cool thanx :)

It's still 5.7L's of pushrod shit.... If you'd want a v config motor that's kinda unique go the vq30det. 210kw's and 386 Nm @3600 rpm from factory :)

Such hate for the LS1s I never understand. Old donkey tech but it works well and it's pretty well packaged for what you get.

Can someone please look at this picture and tell me what the highlighted areas represent?

the A B C numbers refer to the disc type of the wheel which is related to brake clearance and the 88 88 80 refers to the amount of dish.

No tractors, no emos, no SAUQLD peeps, no boats and no gabnrs :(

Just a croat and some etcs. f*cking weak effort guys :D

Right the first way round.

f**kin wicked thanx mang :)

I'll never understand how someone can rate an old oil burning, pushrod piece of shit that feels like it has turbo lag despite being a v8 (seriously drive an early model VT one) yet bag an SR

I bag SRs cause I know you guys like em ldo. Driven later modeled ones and they didn't feel laggy to me. I haven't driven many other v8s other than dads xr8 and a couple of dirty commodores but they didn't feel that much different. Dad's is a quad cam 32 valve v8 and it's a bit weird. It never feels like it's really going until you're up around 3500-4000rpm which I think is weird for an 8 but it still pulls hard.

I think the positives outweigh the negatives for the LS1 it's a pity they've never put it in a decent car. Opinions differ on this point obviously but meh.

I only bag the SRs coz I secretly like them :)

IF (and I stress the IF) I was going to put a 4 banger into something, it would either be an SR or FJ.

stoopid poms... :D

It's always about engine size with you boys :(

Boys and their donks...

If i was going to V8 anything and i couldnt afford a BMW S62 from a M5 i would have to use a 1UZFE, 6 bolt mains FTW

+1. VH45s are also nice if you want to keep it nissan

    • 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. 
    • 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).
