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

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Shimmed or shimless, still solid, no hydraulic pump up stuff.
