Fuuuuuck, cars on the trailer ready to go. Had some 'issues' with fitting the R33 GT-R wheels on the front as they just knicked the strut *ffs*

Anyone coming out to Mallala tomorrow that could bring out a pair of bolt on spacers I could maybe borrow for the day?

I possiably have a mate that is going home to try n swap his bolt ons with a slip on to make sure all clearances but just covering all bases!

Love you all - hahaha

Thats why i run 27mm bolt ons on the front of the ceffy. Rubs on the strut like a bitch.

Heyas

Well a few of u guys know that I've been having "issues" with my gtr for the last year or so

figured out it was due to incorrectly set factory TDC value on the cams, which had been hacked in the ecu to get it to run right (thanks Century20...asshats)

heres a rundown of the last few months

Firstly, Car had std everything, was pulling 210kw at 14psi when i bought it, which was normal. after a couple of years the stock injectors started to leak, and that forced me to buy new ones, so I figured a cheap upgrade would be worthwhile - 575cc upgrade was cheaper than 444cc, however this necessitated a retune and for a retune to be possible, a nistune daughterboard was required.

Before I had the nistune, my mechanic reduced the fuel rail pressure to lean out the flow so it wasnt running so rich which was great. I got some economy but it was still running too rich to get decent power... this did 180kw but it was running stupendously rich - this is the tune I went away to loxton on, dion and krishy can attest that i was blowing tonnes of soot out the rear end

Then I got the nistune daughterboard installed and took the car to boostworx for a tune, shaun's standard gtr image was loaded and adjusted for the bigger injectors and the nismo afm's id installed the day before. he said that he felt the cam timing was out, perhaps by a tooth... best he could manage was 130kw

took the car to road & track, they took off the head and discovered that the TDC marking on the cams were between 3 and 5' out and that the previous ECU tune (before nistune) was set to compensate for this - so the current tune isnt quite right - the timing shaun had to adjust to fix the prior poor cam timing needs to get retuned to stock, and im fitting N1's within the next fortnight, so that would also require a remap - in short won't be getting a retune at boostworx till everythings mechanically sorted however I'm back to similar power levels as before and the response is shithouse, loads of flat spots in the power curve - in spite of that, i can hear the turbos spooling up MUCH quicker than before which is always a good sign - in either case, the adjustments to the cam setup at road and track got me back to 180kw while running rich - we're going to fit the n1's and see how the fuel map scales from 0-20 psi as opposed to 0-14psi

to break it down

2007 - bought gtr, 14psi = 210kw

2009 - dynoed after injector replacement, 180kw (put down to rich mix)

2010 - after nistune, 130kw put down to totally munted timing and enrichment map

- cam timing reverted mechanically, 180kw at 10psi with same tune as above

- estimated 210/220kw on stock turbos at 13/14psi (wont bother with this)

- estimated 300kw on N1 turbos at 20psi with correct ignition timing and correct fuel map

more info to come as i mod the bugger

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Cas issue

      By nash47 · Posted

      Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
