Very interesting old dude,

I am not currently in the market, but will be in the future.

"high flow r34 turbo stainless split dump and front pipe all in perfect condition"

Would you consider selling this as a package? (Trade in for stock L20et Turbo and dump plus cash?)

Estimated or if known RWHP of each engine and what car they were in?

The L20et is out of a HR30 gt RWHP not much factory 144 this has bigger injectors

bigger turbo and split dump pipe so probably a bit more.Good thing its all original

and in excellent running order also the ECU will go with it along with all the Factory

Turbo stuff.

The L28et came out of a 280zx so all factory turbo stuff except injectors turbo dump

ECU new clutch ass might even throw in the same side inlets front mount and piping

Clutch Turbo head have only done a few hrs work this also was in the HR30 after the L20

but like i said I'm going a total different way and what ever i get for it all will be

put to that.As to RWHP 250+ maybe not really interest in figures as there not big enough

to talk about but plenty more than the L20 and when it boosts it's fun.

I plan to, just wondering how difficult making pickup longer is and if there's anything else involved.

Edit: Can standard ecu still be plugged in or have pinouts been changed?

Hydraulic lifters or solid?

How difficult was sump swap?

Was only a case of elongating the oil pickup and bolting on a front facing sump?

It's not a biggie. My car's oil pick up (originally from a 260z???) has been cut, pointed in the opposite direction, and welded again to suit an 280zx sourced L28 with a C210 sump.

I can confirm that you will need to modify your oil pick up, but don't expect a major hassle. Better news, your front facing sump bolts straight up to the L28 block. The biggest hassle you might face is deleting one of your 2 dipsticks (a sawn-off dipstick should do the trick).

Again, from my experience, 144HP odd at the rear is going to feel like you're in a rocket compared to standard C210 arrangement... as for 250 plus... that's actually an awesome number, being near on double the factory output, but possibly waaaay more poke than the original C210 drivetrain and brakes are going to cope with for long. Fun though!

its 144 HP at the Flywheel.

My auto L24e with microtech was 74kW and went harder than a mates stock 5 speed L20et.

as for pinouts, each engine and series and release year and even continent has a difference or 2.

The later the release date the better, well nearly. You could get stuck with the ECCS with Oxy sensor and Cat convertor... meaning emissions compliant.

That's interesting!

My factory spec L20et 5 speed Paul Newman with it's 144HP, pulls up Mount's Ouseley & Kiera coming north from Wollongong @ 90kph in 5th without a care in the world with 2 up.

My old 7MGE MX83 auto Cressida couldn't do that with just me on board, unless I held it in 3rd to stop it jumping up to 4th & back to 3rd all the time.

And when I took it up the mountains the other week, it kicked ass going up Lapstone Hill off the end of M4 at Emu Plains.

Anybody that knows these roads in NSW can vouch that it is no mean feat.

Cheers, D

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.

      spot the stagea

      By AnimalGarage · Posted

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
