Stock FPR

R34 GTR turbos < Terry's old turbos :whistling:

Nismo 555cc injectors,

Walbro fuel pump

Power FC

AVCR

Z32s

Greddy suction kit and cold air box with factory snorkel

HKS 264 deg cams

HKS cam gears

HKS hard piping kit

Yoshida Garage custom ported head and port matched exhaust manifolds

Greddy extended split dumps and front pipe

Fujitsubo Cat back

Gutted cat

N1 oil and water pumps

312.5kW at 16.5 psi

272kW at 13 psi

yep, the jaycar kit, works perfectly. Just tapped the speedo wire at the dash and hid the box up behind the hazard light switch. It's been in there a while bu I had to adjust it because I've changed rim/tyre size recently.

Nismo dash is the main reason I had to fix the speedo. A big digital speedo is just annoying when it's wrong!

Drunkan, you've fixed the speedo, but the tacho looks like the reading is out of whack too. And what wheels and tyres are you running now? Pics please?

Oil change (my last bottle of GW Sougi s6000), and a yearly inspection of the turbo oil feed banjo. Was enlarged to 1.5mm last year.

Sparkly clean as usual; but 15 minutes well spent.thumbsup.gif

Looks like I'll be changing to the new GW SYN-X 6000 for the next one.

I checked my banjo this week and it was squeaky clean. I didn't enlarge the size of it though.

Whether or not to enlarge seems to be a personal thing; to each his own. There's no question; it's cheap insurance to remove & inspect.thumbsup.gif

Nice Build, bet its great to drive

I was just wondering how the Power FC goes with the 260RS, Im assuming you used the one specific for the R33 GTR/RB26

Did you have any issues getting it to work, does anything not work as its meant to.

from what i have read it "should" work fine in the stag but i have not asked anyone who has actually done it,

Thanks

No problems here

Drunkan, you've fixed the speedo, but the tacho looks like the reading is out of whack too. And what wheels and tyres are you running now? Pics please?

Yeah mate that tacho is wierd....lucky mid 90s LCDs had such crap resolution. It consistently reads 500rpm high, not like the speedo that was a % wrong (ie wronger the faster you go)

I've got R34 GTR rims (finally clearning the brakes properly) and 255/40/18 Federals. No pics it's too wet :P

Also fit Z32 AFM today, total fail. SOmeone has played silly buggers with the Z32 AFM curve on my Powerfc and it's not running properly. I'll probably put the standard AFM back on until I can get a tune.

I am running a R32 GTR PowerFC and the car runs fine, an R33 PowerFC would also work.

I Run a R33 PFC (on a R33 RB26) with almost identical setup, minus the inlet and hard piping kit, but I'm still around 20kw short of your power. Guess its time to order those Z32s and the Greddy kit then... thumbsup.gif Good to see whats possible with stock bottom end and turbos...

Found a little cubby hole for a oil catch can today. Hopefully will minimise the amount of oil going out the end of these bloody VQ's. Have to go to pirtek tomorrow and get some real hose- as usual the stuff they give you is massively shit.

Had fun packing that mother full of steel wool!!!!cool.gif

you need one from an RS with hicas, or an ARX. but only vq25det

Not true. Pretty sure Craig said 350Z 5MT rear diff, but I'd have to check.

I think the VQ25DD front diff is the good one though, haven't double checked yet.

    • Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?
    • Look, realistically, those are some fairly chunky connectors and wires so it is a reasonably fair bet that that loom was involved in the redirection of the fuel pump and/or ECU/ignition power for the immobiliser. It's also fair to be that the new immobiliser is essentially the same thing as the old one, and so it probably needs the same stuff done to make it do what it has to do. Given that you are talking about a car that no-one else here is familiar with (I mean your exact car) and an alarm that I've never heard of before and so probably not many others are familiar with, and that some wire monkey has been messing with it out of our sight, it seems reasonable that the wire monkey should be fixing this.
    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
