I respect all your opinions guys but at the end of the day "Security" Has pretty much summed up why I am going this root and besides everyone just chucks the M3 in there.. Time for something new! It is N/A for NOW; Later once everything is sorted I will save up again and whack a snail or two on the side of it.. kristafa, Your car is a BEAST! I have looked at your work mate.. It has already helped me ALOT! One thing I hope you can help me with is the wiring? I tried to sign up to performance forum to see more of your work but my email is banned for some reason, I have never even been apart of that forum before in my life? I emailed them and have got no reply..

Thanks for all the comments guys, I picked up the RB25DET motor last night from a member on this forum, Quickly chucked it in the bay to see how it would sit and as expected the sump fouls everything, So yeh im still in the process of hunting down either a sump off a Z31 or the RB30 Carby motor that came out in a patrol as they are a reverse sump.. Hard to find though..

Cheers for all the comments guys, Keep it coming!

kristafa, I just had a quick look through that thread.. You are like a god lol.. You answered so many questions i had! I wasnt sure on what direction to go with the mounts but you sure cleared that up! I hope you dont mind if i copy that idea? You work is A1++ Dude.. You should be so proud of what you have done, I hope my build can come remotely colse to what you have done..

Cheers!

EDIT: Does anyone know why my thread doesnt get bumped when there is a new post? hard to tell when people post something up you know..

Cre8toR, glad a fellow bmw owner approves of the transplant!!

actually got it started the other night which was a bit of a thrill, rb26 sounds menacing with just dump pipes attached!

Go ahead on replicating my engine mounts/xmember.. that design just made the most sense to us at the time.. getting the standard loom hooked up and supplying power to the ECU is a breeze (when you finally work it out!) just PM me when you're at that stage.

christo.

      TPS voltage RB25DET

      By BASHERnissan · Posted

      Hi guys my TPS voltage is reading over 2v at idle.  My Haltech ECU is reading around 40% throttle position at idle also which is really strange. Note the actual throttle position sensor is brand new…    anyone have any experience with this or know how to calibrate it on Haltech ?

      Cas issue

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      The OEM disk will not work on any AEM ECU, you need to use the one they made. You shouldn't have to flip the CAS or whatever you were describing, if you set the ignition sync offset correctly it can't backfire. Make sure you're using a spark plug lead on coil 1 instead of the timing loop to avoid weird issues with the timing light. Double check that your timing settings are actually correct, like is the 24 tooth configured correct or should it actually be 12 teeth for 1 crank revolution? I also found this: 305817248-AEM-Undocumented-Settings-v1-2.pdf

      Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.

      Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.

      Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).
