KiwiRS4T Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Not something I did to my car (engine is still out of it) but what I did today: went to Tauranga for an SDU (Skylines Down Under) dyno day. In the awd turbo class an R32 GTR made 501awkw, an R33 GTR made 381awkw and a 260RS Stagea was third with a first run of 300awkw on 14psi and on 18 psi made 324awkw (for those who remember Psymin's Stagea it is no more - he is putting all the good running gear in an R32 GTR and the car is for sale with an RB26... pretty much stock RS260). A 4wd V8 Adventra made 228awkw! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/342557-this-is-the-new-recipe-chat-thread/page/27/#findComment-5376612 Share on other sites More sharing options...

richzx Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Yes, such as an ecu write up? Maybe it needs its own thread. I want a Nismo ecu as well. Someone find me one and I'll buy it.

kjb_r33 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Friday, i fitted new clarion HU and Gizzmo EBC, removed split dumps, front pipe, hi flow cat and GCG turbo off my written off r32. Yesterday i fitted split dumps and hi flow to me new stag. Have my Nistune board here, just waiting for another ECU i bought from perth to arrive, then ill fit my nistune, hi flow GCG, z32 AFM (off the r32) silicon intake pipe and tech edge wide band O2 sensor. Then i need to sell my r32 (repairable write off, has nistune, injectors, coils and so on already fitted) to fund intercooler, injectors and coils for the stag. Looking good...

66yostagea Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Finally got to have a decent drive after fitting the front facing plenum. It still runs lumpy when cold but after that smooth as. Did 460ks on about 3/4 tank. Best I have ever got. Also while away picked up a pair of front guards, front bar with lip and some skirts. $50. They are spares jic.

66yostagea Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 On blowing IC hoses. During testing after fitting the front mount and running huge boost, the hoses kept blowing off the straight pieces of pipe, did not matter how tight the clamps. Simple solution was to drill 4 holes and fit self tappers. The heads stopped the clamp from slipping the same as a lip or ring of weld. Easy to do and inexpensive.
