Day 6 - 15/4/10

1 can of VHT = stealth intercooler :)

Intercooler is all plumbed in now, the injectors are next, also got the Pivot gauges installed

The guys were also tuning the S15 for the upcoming World Time Attack, such a beast.

Good to see another skyline being done up for racing!

Dont want to rain on your parade for the times, but zebra is right. Its easy to get down to low 60's, to push past that and into sub 60's it jumps up exponentially. Not just in power, but suspension, tyre size and compound, cars weight, brake setup and a whole myriad of other things. Good luck to you though, hopefully you do get there. Ive found that if you go out there just to have fun and not worry about your times, you end up doing your best ones without it feeling like you were trying! Its great!

Hopefully will see you out there.

Hi 33_racer, thanks for your advice. We have no illusions about the cost and commitment that it takes to really go fast. To be honest, a 59.99 would be perfect! There is no way that we will be the quickest, as this car will remain road registered, but the Red 4 door GT-T we were using previously was almost totally stock and getting smashed on the straights. Hopefully, this will just allow us to be a little more competitive.

Back to the build - The Apexi Power FC finally turned up!

IT'S ALIVE!

:D

Day 7 - 16/4/10

Everything is back together and the Power FC is in! Terry calculated a basic tune and she kicked over first time!!!

Unfortunately we can't get it on the dyno today, but come Monday, we will be on the rollers and find out what gains we made!

Day 9 - 20/04/10

330HP ATW!!!

Here are the dyno sheets, the first three show the actual tune with a steady power curve. The last one is in shootout mode, just going for big numbers. Note the wheelspin at 4000RPM on the last sheet.

On the final pic, the green line shows where we started and the red line is the current output. Pretty happy with that.

unless the guy was braking then i'd say the rollers have more resistance judging by how fast the car slowed down.

Anyways iv been for a ride in a 300hp r33 and that was quick enough to impress me lol.

-------------------

Have you thought about getting a lightened flywheel?

Edited by R34 -_-

my car with over 300kw doesnt accelerate that fast in 4th from low revs. both the dyno and the car have brakes that the operator can use to slow it down after the run.

    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
