mine were maxing before it cut.

so my informeter told me anyway.

so i was forced to baby the car around lol

emanage can clamp the aiflow at 4.6 as mine is.. anything after that is mapped by a boost sensor plugged into the emanage.

Yeah the Informeter suggests I max my injectors out without the suction.; hardly have to baby it - its first/second gear at 5k where I get into the upper region.

But yeah - mapping the extra airflow via boost sensor sounds fine to me. Its just clamping it at 4.6 WITHOUT the emanage that sounds like danger to me

So the suction pipe doesn't max the injectors just the AFM? If that's the case wouldn't a fuel cut defender fix that by clamping at say 4.6V? If the injectors are maxed then obviously needs bigger injectors.

If you're gonna cut fuel what's the point of flowing more air?

Am I missing something here?

I've got the MAP sensor installed but doesn't seem there's a need to use it...>_<

yeh it probably is a bigger danger doing it without bigger injectors.. which cant be done without an EMU

lol fuel cutdefender in this case would be used to clamp the voltage of AFM to 4.6v.. allowing it to rev freely without an air flow cut.

it adds fuel to the map if you have more boost.

ie. cold whether more boost - the map sensor will add fuel to keep it safe. get cihan to set it up

Ironpaw had a tune done before the map sensor was installed, so after 4.6 volts, cihan guessed the mapping, which he is really good at.

when he goes for the next tune, cihan will integrate it with the emanage

Whats wrong with your 3 dials? My boost gauge isn't working, but I found a thread on Scotty's soldering fix, so I'll do that, get it working, then think about changing it :D

mines an RX, only RS had the dials and the relevant sensors/loom etc. so if i cant get it working, ill be selling all the working bits and going a double DIN

the voltage readout works lol and i think if i change the BCM ill get the attesa working too. the boost sensor is missing the plug in the enging bay loom. but i rekon the wiring is there

i think there were tests done and raising the back of the bonnet doesnt really work. bonnet vents are the only real way to get air out :(

did you run a line from the battery directly to the pump? then its 14.4v already :P

Would creating a vent at back of the bonnet by timing the plastic trim on the back of the bonnet?

Depends what else you do while raising it....trimmed some plastic out so it can flow/get dragged out.

I used a 12v relay...so it's 12v at the moment....If I need to step it up I will use the other one I got from Scott.

Did you want a factory boost sensor Iain or did you get one from the wreck?

Well that sounds like verdict is rip it off until I have done injectors, emanage and fuel pump? DAMMIT! And I was so looking forward to dyno day!

Wouldn't have thought a standard car with plenum spacer, exhaust and suction pipe would have maxed out the injectors?

I would leave it on until and see what the tuner can get out of it.....remember he will lean it off....you may get away with it running at about 92% duty cycle on standard boost!

I just spoke to Andrew, he was recommending a tune just with the exhaust. Sounds like I can do it without doing injectors etc, but excuse my ignorance can I get it tuned without going Emanage? I've only ever had one car tuned, and that was the R31 after I did the engine rebuild. Not exactly sophisticated so it was just done at Ultra Tune.

Unfortunately not on the stock ECU. Unless you send it to Japan.. :whistling:

Exhaust, Sierra S1 and stock boost you should get away with no injections with the E-Manage tune....or Exhaust, Suction Pipe, standard turbo and stock boost!....maybe!...anything more and you are pushing the envelope like I did!...not fun!

You will be in the 90% duty cycle mark more than likely.....so make sure your injectors are alway's clean!

Yep. No tune for u unless u get an emu installed...or a fcon...

Lol at ultratune 'tuning' cars!!

Yeah agree, but it was just timing, nothing complex! Thats my excuse and I'm sticking to it!

Off to buy an Emanage then... any suggestions where?

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching

      Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.

      Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.

      Regardless of neglect or incompetence, fixing either is tedious and annoying. Most of the neglect on my car is definitely rust. I hope I can at least pass inspections later on and they won't fail the car due to slightly corroded hardlines. I was generous with rust converter and wax and it looks ok, most lines in the rear are hard to see properly anyways.  Definitely will test them though to make sure they don't rupture under pressure, in that case the car isn't going anywhere this year.
