i would so have sold the 34 and bought a gtr with the money u wanna spend on ur sc kit.

massive waste of cash imo

but hay each to there own i guess

Um, then doing any mods to a car is a waste of cash, your logic fails.

I'm in the process of doing a VQ30DETT into my R34...waste of cash? I don't think so.

no, that isnt the logic. the logic is spending the amount in question for a result which seems a little fanciful, is a waste of cash.

is your vq30dett costing you 30k? what sort of power do you think you'll be pushing once complete?

The VQ is costing me less than half of $30,000, from start to finish.

Power? around 500HP With a lovely torque figure.

It's all about being different. Would i put a VQ30 into my R34 if it was going to cost 30k? Yup.

if you want a supercharged skyline, throw an ls2 in there and charge that... wont cost 30k, will be 400rwkw

Or even better, get your hands on an LSX from GM. 7.5L, 620HP, 800nm, and factory warranty too.

I dunno if you're aware, but Nissan stroked the RB engine to 2.6L and added two turbos to it about 20 years ago.

AFAIK stroking an N/A to 2.7L and adding a supercharger to it is the most f**ked up thing I've heard. And doing it to be different just reeks of someone trying to be a hero. So please, don't be the kettle that calls the pot black.

Supercharging your car to be different.??

Get some attention for doing something worthwhile to your Skyline, most people would love to be able to spend that amount on their Skyline, not waste it on unpractical ideas.

There is a reason you don't see any S/C lines around and believe me its not JUST a money issue.

As for 700hp+ Good luck, think you might need even more of that endless cash pit

Why do you need that much hp, surely if you were after power you would not go down the path you have??

What exactly are you trying to achieve??

If you wanna S/C to be different do it in a RR not RB

Go the supercharged RR LMFAO!!!!!

MISSR34, can i ask where you got this figure of 500rwkw from? seen a few V8 commodores with that charger or similar, keping in mind they roughly double the capacity (or more) than the motor your building, and i havent seen any of them make 500rkw.... that said i havent been actively looking for results

guys alot of you are missing the point with Cara, she is trying to do something different. Obviously doesnt care about the cash but wants something unique. Good luck to her and the SC is what i say.

thanks dude. much appreciated. in the end i have researched my butt off to make sure im doing the right thing! and i know i am...sure its 30k but i know its gonna be worth it in the end lol :D im happy with my decision.

There is no point to be missed. She is missing the point that she is wasting her money! But she doesn't care and doesn't want to take on advice from people. I bet her 3 'friends' that are giving her the thumbs up will be more than willing to take all her cash!

I am sure there is a fine line with being unique and throwing your money away.

If it was that beneficial then everyone would have done it a long time ago.

i have all faith in the 3 people that are the main "boys" of my build, my tuner, my engine builder, and the dude im getting the supercharger off of. all 3 actaully know each other too which is a bonus, and all 3 have said i will make the power with no issues. :D
i guess it also comes down to what has been done to the engine aswell. im going all out! im storking to 2.7L ive got custom cams being made to suit the supercharger to help with max performance levels as well. the entire engine is being built around the specs of the T Trim and what is going to help make the most power it can.

i have all faith in my 3 main boys that they will get her at about 500 rwkw.....

I think they all saw you coming and its no coincidence that they're all encouraging this bullshit fantasy build at your expense. Misplaced faith I'd say.

500rwkw is a lot of power. That is bleeding edge stuff, similar to what some of the best big single turbo, race engine RB26s do.

I think you'll find that its not going to happen for $30k either. Had any thoughts about the gearbox, diff, driveshafts, brakes, wheels and rubber you'll need to contain that 500rwkw?

Cams and 200cc aren't actually going to make an enormous difference.

Ok so lets just say that "hyperthiticly" I'm considering supercharging my r34 skyline as im on my p's,will a sc14 supercharger make enough difference to bother with and would it be hard to hide,I'd plan on setting up a hiden on/off button so i can use it when im on the track and then turn it of for daily driving :D

What will i need? other then the supercharger and do i need to add anything,would i be able to do it myself without any hasel's?

My advice, wait until the school holidays are over and then concentrate hard between 9am and 3pm. "hyperthiticly" you will make much more progress in life by learning to spell than you will by trying to illegally modify your car, well concealed or not you are guaranteed to have "hasels" with the police.

Bingo.

Cara you sound exactly like my g/f stubborn as all hell and wont listen to reason. You have a plethora of people telling u this wont work with experience and examples to back it up and your not listening to rational reason. Why would all these people be bullshitting on you? Do u think jealosy is an issue when people are straight up mocking you for this idea?

Best of luck I say, not with the car but with life in general with your attitude. No offence.

alrighty

i showed this thread to a friend of mine last night. he works at sabaddin automotive and before that at the original rank rotary he has many years experience working with serious hi performance car and has built many 500+ hp cars.

he said ur a dreamer (amongst other things) and said ur pretty much getting ripped off. u would need to more than double ur budget to get to anywhere near ur goals. and ur using the wrong motor for it.

and to the op ur a dumb flamin mongrel seriously

i dont want all the wheels to spin just the back ones :) ,and i dont want to give up something i love doing just because the police dont want me to.

You will get caught.

And then you will pay " Stupid Tax".

By the sounds of it you will pay alot of stupid tax.

What sort of performance advantage, track times or purpose are you selecting the 750hp supercharger setup for?

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
