Yeah, more or less I don't want to risk the motor just yet. It's my daily car to get to work and I kinda need it :P more or less I told him to play it extra safe up top, so he took as much timing out as he could without letting exhaust gas get too hot, and then added fuel as you can see by the 11.5:1 AFR. He was trying to get top end power as low as he could, while still getting the response in the mid range.

Looks like your tuner's trying to stop it from going over 300rwkws. Never less good result

More like the boost drops off.

It's boost control, not tuner IMO.

17psi --> 15psi :P

Nah it's both Nismoid. I was running NO boost controller, so that boost curve is entirely the actuator. If we had boost control set up, we would have it hold a flat 17psi....fact of the matter is, my tuner really didn't want to push it too far on an internally stock '93 RB25, so he did try to get the peak power as low as he could. Like I said above your post, he removed as much timing as he could before it started to have a negative effect on exhaust temps, and made it relatively rich on 11.5AFR.

He doesn't have as much confidence in stock internals as a lot of other people (inc myself) do, which is a good thing imo. He's making sure that it's not going to snap a rod bolt or something when I ring it's tits off lol

it would definitely have seen over 300 with timing and a tad less fuel up top. That's why I posted the AFR chart too.

Your AFR's looks abit too rich thou... The green afr looks more healthier. Once you bleed out some of that fuel it will give you lot better power curve all around. I mean unburnt fuel burns inside your exhaust which can also cause high exhaust gas temp, plus they can thin and carbonate (make it black) your engine oil.

I wouldn't worry about the engine at 15psi as long as its tuned detonation free. Factory pistons and con-rods have no issues handle 300rwkws detonation free.

I would get it retuned to about 12.3~12.5 consistent AFR with bit more timing. That saves you fuel, improves driving ability, won't carbon coat every thing and do the enviroment a favor :P .

Richer AFRs will drop the combustion temps though which is a good thing.

lol if the fuel and timing change, I'll do it myself. Since I don't know how, they're staying there :P I can't afford to pay for another tune lol.

I'll see how it goes after a couple of tanks....once I'm 100% there's no further issues with how the car's running, I'm going to be looking into E85 anyway. Then I'll be taking it up to Sydney for the tune I spose.

Detonation isn't the only thing that will kill a motor mate.

IMO his tuner has done a smart thing.

On a built motor, ye lean it up a bit once its all running nicely... However a stocker motor demands the respect of owners wishes

Good to see another way of doing it!

However, for the guys with larger turbos I am sure it would be beneficial to go straight to 3" as quickly as possible from the turbo. I know its the not exactly the same but its sort of like a bellmouth if it goes straight to the largest diameter. Thats my theory anyway.

Here is my intake pipe! I am very happy with how it turned out. It took a few cuts to get it right. It fits in perfectly. I forgot to get a photo with it installed. Tao gave me a spare bov hard return line which I cut and connected to the port welded on to the intake pipe in the photos. I have neglected the pcv connection as its not required functionally. I might go back later and do that as well.

Car is booked in for tomorrow to get the tune adjusted, cant wait!

I was pretty happy with it!

I was shocked that the 90 deg bend was the perfect fit. Even if you had some pipe that you could mould, the 90 deg bend is still exactly what you want. Cant wait to see the results tomorrow.

Trozzle, can you go for a drive in 4th gear and record rpm vs speed...

As in at 4000rpm you are doing 115km/hr?

Sorry I'd completely forgotten about this!

3000rpm looked to be about 88kph...so, 122kph = 4159rpm, which is where I achieved 17psi. I'm sure this response would be greatly improved if I were using an electronic boost controller of some sort. I believe the boost control in the ViPEC works in a way that as soon as it hits Xrpm (2000rpm in my settings) it begins pulsing the actuator with the intake pressure or something. If I set it to hold 17psi but not start pulsing until 4000rpm, this may improve my boost response and come on a bit earlier.

Run a $50 adjustable ebay exhaust cam gear. That will help with response.

I'm producing a small batch of 5 Ceramic ball bearing ATR43G3s in .70 and .82 turbine for trail at the same price as our regular ATR43G3s. In case they fail, you will be replaced with a standard sleeve bearing ATR43G3.

This will be the Duel ceramic ball bearing version of below:

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh NOOOOOO, just as I'm swapping over to a RB25 you do this!

Pitty I'm running out of money, I'll just have to stick with my ATR43G3 0.63 rear :)

You can stick this in my turbo if you want :)

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
