Roofracks and bike carriers back on

Almost had to use them the other day!

Also, turbo hunt has gone cold

No matter, I'm off to QLD today (flying) so maybe i'll have a hunt up there for one

but everything you have written in your above post scares me that your a tuner builder.

Hmmmm everything that scotty has written is fact ,if your scared it should be from the realisation of the fact scotty is correct !!!! I'm not bagging the potential of a well set up 26 at all , I love them! But they are def not the be all and end all of rb's .

Go for gold scotty on 3.0 will be watching with interest , a " similar" set up to what heading for on the c34 ATM.

He is correct is he, I find it funny what he wrote, so out of all the rb's the rb26 has oil issues, interesting, maybe i should get ride of the 26 out of the autech and put a 25 in it, :whistling: maybe it's a bit of a fanboi love of scotty and rb25's lol want a 25 over a 26 please :yucky:

o on the plus side, engine is now in,

ready to drop of tomorrow, fly out on Saturday so hopefully get a call in a few weeks months to get it sent down to brisbane

Ha ha your as funny on this site as you are on Calais turbo !!! Just keep your auto abuse up and your misguided opinions to ya self !. Let us know what massive power you make out of your godzilla 26 , lol no fan boy here mate !

Ha ha your as funny on this site as you are on Calais turbo !!! Just keep your auto abuse up and your misguided opinions to ya self ! Afford lol have a close look at your builds champ . Let us know what massive power you make out of your godzilla 26 , lol no fan boy here mate !

how am i miss guided, and funny on this site as i am on calais turbo? my builds I like to spend money where it's needed, yeah we built a slapped together 26/30 with a spare head and a bottom end and parts that where lying around, everyone made out it was extremely hard to do, took a weekend! Have you? previous to that i've had a mild reon rb30 head on na rb30 bottom ends, considering my car was in burnout comps etc, I didn't really see much reason to put a massive built engine in something that has the potential of getting cooked, that perform very well pissed in 11's with 220kw, So i have better results at the drags on less power than most people but i'm miss informed, Abuse who did I abuse, I was told that the 26 was over rated and I should have stuck with the rb30 lol or better yet put a 25 in it. I'll let you know more probably of what 1/4 it does over what hp it makes, currently my stock 26 powered stagea seems to perform very well to most people modified rb25 stagea's lol and m35's, once again i'm miss informed.

Track rb26 as they have a little more development due to the group a era.

....400m and burnouts rb30! Either way you will always do better with hp development with the rb30!

In saying that if I had a car with an rb30 in it I certainly would not be going back to a rb26! But what do I know....

For the money you could have done a turbo ls1!

yes i know and that was on the cards, even had an ls1 there, but time is the issue and moving interstate is the next 4 days is the next one

as i've got a forged balanced rb26 in the shed, i would choose that over a standard na bottom end 30, and now i've got a goal to beat 4bidin down the 1/4 with an unopened 26! what have u run down the drags 4bidin?

I'd run a 26/30 all day given the option. Might have been able to power the old wagon into the mid 11's and below, either that or put that nos kit on that I had on the shelf.

oh and, this section has gone to shit

Unproven on the 1/4? Drags are for kiddies, as it all comes down to the launch, not any skilz... Airport runs would show a different result you would have to agree.

Come back to us when you have suspension that doesn't bottom out when you dump the clutch, and can make it around a track in a decent time. ;)

Drags for kiddies, least it proves power not a happy tuner! Car didn't bottom out either so as it's a heavy car and doing 1.80 60 foots I was extremely happy with what my standard 26 did! I'll have to get it on the dyno see what power it makes! What do u do Scotty to fudge the figure? Air temp near the exhaust?

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
