Hi,

Have the following ugrades:

-K&N Induction

-3 1/2" catback Exhaust

-Apexi PFC D Jetro

-GT2871R Turbos

-Turbosmart Boost Controller (set to 1.2 bar)

The power is not as good as I hoped it to be. Any advice?

Have just purchased a Nismo fuel pump and 600cc Injectors hoping that'll make a difference.

Also need help tuning the PFC since am running it on the base map. 

HELP!

You're going to need:

- Exhaust Gas temp gauge

- Wideband O2

- Datalogit

- Dyno time..

or pay Unigroup to tune it for around $500~$1000

Base map and upping the boost = trouble

Thanks for the tip.. Trouble is living in Africa proves to be abit of a hassle when it comes to ordering aftermarket parts. Many ppl don't ship here.

As for tuning experience, I have a tuning shop here and have produced fairly good results with evos & stis.

Had a Supra RZ just before I got the GTR and that was a breeze to extract big power out of. The GTR seems to need alot more to make serious power.

Yeah a better designed cylinder head and an extra half litre capacity will do that.

Have you done any head work?

Also, why 600cc injectors with 2871 turbos? That combo should be good for over 700hp so 600cc injectors aren't going to do it justice.

How much power did you make at 1.2 bar?

Dan.. I guess ur right about the Supra.

Haven't gotten any head work done yet. The thought of dismantling that head worries me abit.

As for the 600cc injectors, was looking for drop-in replacements by Nismo and that's the best I could get. The others were sard and tomei but needed modifications or new fuel rails which I didn't want to venture into at this time. Placed an order with greenline 2 weeks ago and still awaiting goodies to arrive.

What kind of power should I expect with the setup I plan to run? Was hoping for something in the region of 600.

The absence of dynos in this city make it difficult to makeout exact horsepower. But the fact that I manage to keep ahead of the Evos & Stis, I assume I should be in the region of 400

I hope you are talking 400kw? Standard turbos can do 400hp almost. That setup will see you to 600hp at the wheels but make sure your tune and fuel system are both up to scratch as these two items will let you down if you're not careful. 600cc injectors are a tiny bit small for the turbos so monitor your afrs closely and make sure you don't push it past their capability.

Guilt-Toy confirm what equipment I'll require for the distance tune and what you charge for it?

Was thinking of purchasing the wideband O2 sensor kit from Innovate motorsport and the pfc datalogit.

Suggestions anyone?

Make sure the wideband device you purchase is a good one, and has 0-5v afr output so we can connect it to Datalogit.

the price is about $350 usd to tune this car. if you fly me to your country I can bring everything with me. the datalogit and the wideband sensor needed to tune your car. I am in Georgia in Eastern Europe so it will not cost too much to fly you there. Maybe you can find other cars that need tuning as well and we can work something out.

I normally charge $300 - $500 usd for a tune. Remote or not.

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
