so ive been working on my rb build for about a year now and had a few motors in this 240sx. i first got it running back in Jan for bout 3 wks but the transmission broke so sourcing parts and research took awhile so i just bought one. then while the car was down i desided to put another turbo in it. i went from a 50 trim which i made 520 whp to a turbonetics T72 turbo which i have right set to 15psi (dont know the exact hp) i had 880 injectors and replaced with 1000's (im on e85) the other motor had a lil bit of a porting job when i got the motor, head gasket, greddy timing belt, head studs, r34 rb25 n/a short block. now that motor was ok on power(at the time i thought was really good) it was a lil bit sluggish in the off boost parts. well after i had put the new turbo and injectors on that motor i had took it out and not knowing one of my fuel pumps failed and BAM there goes cyc #6. so i got a new motor completely stock in put it in there with the same aftermarket parts with the same tune and this motor rocks hard. so far on my tune im getting that turbo to be at full spool on 15 psi at 4800 rpms an redline to 7k( will raise when i change the belt, its loose). idk the power but it fells ALOT better than the other setup by far i dont much pic of the car but ill show you the work over time and what happened to it after the last motor blew, it caught on fire. i will post new pic of my new setup prob tonight

this is at the car show in Jan old setup

^ lol :(

As for the power/turbo 385rwkw/520rwhp with boost (only 15psi) coming on 4800rpm - did i read that correctly?

If so, that's fairly average mate.

Also did i read that it's running on a stock motor as well?

What trans did you use? 25box?

I'm not sure any rebuilt SR box will take that for very long

I did come across the original build from some US car forums, and she's the actual mechanic who made this happening from scratch. Pretty amazing for a chick.

Bit sexist yeah?

I know chicks who rebuild 800hp twin supercharged diesels in tanks way better than what I could.

I loved watching the Dutch birds, nothing better than a blonde big boobied girl hanging out the top of a tank whilst she drives it around trying to look menacing, even war stops to watch..........

Looks good, should get it up on the dyno and post up a dyno sheet.

2nd girl in those pics is....yuck lol.

and i like the wheels, what sort are they?

sorry bout the delay, i was very sick. the wheels are called venaci they come out of the same factory as rays and are from japan

^ lol :D

well on 15psi is prob around 500whp but the motor is stock and the tranny is an rb25 aswell

nice looking S14, and I don' say that often :D

thanks im working on making it better looking.

i just turned up the boost to 18 psi and boy was that alot to handle. i love this car. it feels like it still has room to go but i like her to have alot of life in her.

I think I have an .96 ar housing or 1.09 ar housing on a t72. The Q is, what size should I go down to to make it spool up round 4000 rpm. It spools now at 4900. I was thinking somewhere around a .81 r .84 but didn't know know if that will be to small

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
