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.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
