Will be good to see some quick 32's around as well, give the R33 boys some competition

Hopefully power up plan stage 2 will commence shortly for mine, although 230rwkw will do me nicely for a RB20

reckon its great work to finally see alot of projects coming to completion, although as with all car stuff, I'm sure they are all a work in progress, good stuff :D

yeah joel i have a flywheel off the rb20, have a os tripple going in so its not needed, PM me if your interested

When finished i hope to have the power that these 33s have but with about 200kg less weight to move around

There will be a couple sleeper 300rwkw R32's 'idling' around adelaide soon also.. :D

 

Problem is I need a stock RB flywheel so Andrew can balance up the RB30.. Think I can find one.. No sir..

I've got one, I'll sell it to you for $5000 if they are that rare :wassup:

What a bunch of R32 floggs! Gotta be wankin yourselves! :thumbdwn:

Thanks for posting that up Matt, go the stock internals:)

Joel, get a twin plate NOW, and balance it complete - you will need it with all that RB30 torque:)

Twin plate = broken RB20 gearbox. :D

But you never know, depends how the prioritys work out if I come in to some more money. 1. Engine, 2. ECU, 3. Turbo, 4. Injectors or Clutch depending, my clutch should hold a decent amount when the front g/box oil seep is fixed.

I hope you don't mind Steve I borrowed your 9kw to add to my lawnmower. Grass won't be growing back for a few wks.

Hey I got ripped too! Lach used my 17psi tune not the 19psi one :) Gimme the 19psi tune you bastards, I need to exploit my strengths over you higher CR stockies hahaha :rofl:

But in all seriousness I agree with Lachlan, it's great to see so many 250-300+rwkw Skylines in Adelaide :) Makes it better for our more modestly power brethren, 'cause now potential traffic light opponents won't be too sure if they're about to get nailed or not :)

And now back to the thread....... talking about ME & MY STUFF :) j/k

I have to give a HUGE thanks to our very own Steve for setting up a damn fine deal! I now have ~35L of ELF LMS fuel in jerry cans sitting here ready for tuning, & then the Nats :D

ELF LMS is 102RON unleaded that was developed as control fuel for LeMans. A number of rally teams use the stuff too. The 102RON doesn't sound like a big deal but it sure packs a lot more oomph than it would seem!

Thanks to Steve I got in contact with Trent from Autobarn Mile End & he gave me 35L of LMS for the grand total of $0 Autobarn are now (or soon will be) selling LMS for ~$6.50L (35L x $6.50 ='s $227 for free - I'm happy:) ). My car will be sporting Autobarn Mile End sponsorship for the nats as a thankyou.

LMS is not cheap, but considering the gains, & how healthy it is for your engine, it's not a bad alternative to Nitrous. A couple of real world examples of how much extra grunt LMS can unlock:

Martin's HPI Soarer went from 288rwkw to 336rwkw from additional timing & boost all possible due to the LMS. The engine showed signs of less heat build up & NO sign of any detonation on the PFC.

The 10sec Morpowa Lancer was able to gain nearly 100kw via tuning on ELF LMS!

*Note* this was info from the engine builder.

The downside to ELF LMS (apart from cost - although not too bad as a once in a while drag/track day) is the massive headspins it was giving me while driving around town with it in the back of the Liberty!

I also have an Apexi wastegate actuator ready to go on. It came off an Apexi AX53B60 kit & although I don't know what bar it's rated at, I have found info from Apexi that confirms it is, "strengthening spring internal organs actuator", so if it doesn't fix my boost drop I can always have it surgically implanted to strengthen my organ :( Once again thanks to Steve for teeing up that deal (didn't cost a cent!)

Last but not least, I "MAY" have a deal on some R34 GT-R seats! Hopefully in ~2-3wks :D

Hey Matt, thanks, but dont thank me, seriously, thank the generosity of those guys who were willing to donate to a good cause.

Trent is a really nice bloke, loves imports, and fortuneately for us, gets the good gear in cos he actually knows what he is doing, unlike so many other auto parts shops around.

So when are you testing the ELF on the lawnmower, you will probably get another 10-15rw out of her yet.

:( Yeah Lach', Steve & I are just stuffing about, but keep the comparo' graphs coming mate, they're excellent.

Steve,

Very true re Trent (& Irish).

I hope you don't mind mate, but I swapped your 9kw for a Niki 650, pretty much a straight swap really :)

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
