You want to buld a 400rwkw car on a tight budget? :(

Unfortunately money does almost need to grow on some tree's if you want to build such a setup...

As you have seen buying a cheap I/C core could well be your issue here... could be something else, that's the fun of a 400rwkw setup - it takes time AND money.

Where are you referring to ?

There is more than one company in the land of Oz that makes I/C cores you know... :huh:

Long ur for a update but here it is

Intercooler pressure drop - <2psi

Exhaust back pressure = < 1psi to redline on load

ValveSprings replaced with brand new ones

Seems like all was fine however we found that the cas does need to be replaced. The timing and injectors are a bit off and after a stab of the throttle there is misfiring.

Thoughts?

Will check back when that's done. Any advice in the meantime will be great.

Told you there was setup issues mate.

Glad to hear you finally got around to sorting it out, rather simple in the end :thumbsup:

its a great feeling after its all been resolved. it be good to see what we can do with e85 now.

what was the issue the cas was doing?

From what i understand, the back of the cas was actually being stripped away by something. The actual thread was completely gone. My mech said it possibly could have been due to the fact that the old cas didnt have any spacers. Because of this it was giving incorrect readings to the cam timing which caused all types of dramas.

hope that helps.

Im pretty sure It gets stripped away by the 4 bolts holding the camgear on. If you bolt up the cas with no timing case it doesnt have enough clearance. I think from memory its around the 3-3.5mm mark it needs to be spaced out.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
