hahah we used to go through 1500L of diesel in around 6 hours in the Tanks when I was in the army, 1500hp + 60Tonnes = Bad economy lol

Spoke to Yavuz last night.

Steve, he mentioned you had issues with the CAS when the big power runs were being done about 6000 rpm? Did you just leave it or did you do that harmonic balancer thingo? He said its about 2K to do... Not too keen on that!

Yeah bloody hell that was annoying. It still made 400rwkw by 5000rpm though lol

The problem was the signal to the ECU. The balancer thing he's got is the way to go without a doubt though, i tried to do it the way SAS do it (who said they'd done it to hundreds of cars etc), and that was a complete waste of money and time. Hindsight is a prick, in hindsight i wouldve got the balancer Yavuz sells and been done with it.

End result? Wasted $550 on a sensor that hardly works and can rev to 8000rpm. I used to love wringing its neck higher but not anymore until i get one of those balancers from him, and I will do that one day but to be realistic its putting down enough power by 8000rpm anyway. How far did you want to rev to?

Yeah well if it comes down to it i will do it. But seriously I am so sick of spending money on this thing. Haha. I have never heard of this issue before.... either here or on the pommy forum. Could it be something to do with the 30 block and being taller then the 26 block? The extra length on the timing belt flopping around? Maybe?

I have my limiter set to 8500 just so i dont hit it and I never rev it harder then 8 on the Nismo dash. Yavuz did spin it to 9 when he tuned it 12 months ago and it was still making over 370 rwkw... which was it's peak just over 5K (i think).

take it to 9krpm stevo & paul :P

Shush you! haha. 8 is enough. I still have the junk arse N1 oil pump in mine. Its done 20,000 kms....I would hate to smash it to bits and cost me a engine!

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
