looking good simon, and wow that is lots of hacking. i like it.

are you in contact with cazman atm by any chance? need those R32 rear camber arms and toe rods but he's not replying :S

Hehe we were drifting together on GT5 yesterday.

^^ just for s14's? or like a universal kit?

more or less a universal kit... tho to suit an r32 there may be some extra trimming involved.

heres some more progress pics... i pick it up this arvo and then its off to Garage 7 where we will wire the bitch up :D

and now for a little sad news... Pulled the engine apart after all the drama;s i had with it boiling and running hot at G1... looks like its got seriously hot which it did as logged from coolant temps getting up to 135 degrees in a flash from 100;..Anyway head off and its melted plugs 1 and 6. Cyln 6 piston crown has melted and the ring land cracked due to the alloy changing properties. number 1 also got a bit hot but not as bad.

few other bits and pieces but yeah... needs repairs and a cooling system that works.

before people bag the tune.. its not tune related. running same tune for last 12 months of endless thrashing... it was the boiling coolant and high chamber temps that causes pre ignition :(

135 is super hot : (

can you put a coolant temp/intake temp ignition trim table in the ecu? get it to just flood it with fuel down to 9:1 as well if it ever gets that hot again?

call race radiators in vic. they suplied the radiator in our targa car and in a 600kw circuit 32. they can make them any shape and size but the important thing is that they make them cross flow as that makes a huge difference.

i think im right in saying that this wouldnt have been possible running a re tuned rom. with the haltec this should be easy.

nistune does have temp protection in the form of rich and retard.

but it all happened so quick :S

Yeah you have to set the coolant temp tables up more aggressively though, so that if it gets over 105c it just pulls all ignition and dumps 100% fuel. Do you know if they had been touched at all?

yeah but evidently not enough.. something the haltech should have a lot more control over.

got some other cool things happening// getting some carbon parts made up. Bought an RB26 head. got new pistons and rings on the way... motor should go back together soon

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
