Hey guys....

Happy Festive seasons !!

im having to drive around some niggling problems at the moment...RPM is capped at 7,000rpm as there is a apparent ignition breakdown that needs to be addressed above this point and its also half throttle out of horseshoe, last turn and gears 5 and 6 to prevent breakdown.

Looking at upgrading to some LS1 coils :)

i have noticed that keeping it in the lower gear means the car enters the corner alot more eagerly vs the higher gear which settles the car and gives me a chance to process whats happening :P

i will definately pencil down these pointers but figured i need to put together 11 turns and a clean lap before i start to push

harder at certain points :cheers:

GOAL is for car to break 1:02s by August 2012 - all input greatly appreciated!!!!

Plan is to increase revs to 8000rpm, increase stroke :) ,increase boost (currently low boost), reduce some more weight and sort out the suspension further!!

I have to ask.. the fitting that goes in your oil filler hole.. what is the point of that?

It cant be a catch can return cause oil doesnt flow up, and even if it was why would u return trapped oil in the head back to the head. dont mean anything rude or offensive it just has been baffling the crap outta me for weeks

It was something i saw on a fellow members car (Stuart's R33GTR) and his rationale made sense.

Apparently all his breathing issues resolved itself when the oil cap was tapped and turned into another 'breather' point.

Idea is under G-forces, oil is pushed to back of motor. Having a hole at the front, helps the breathing for the motor and

prevents oil getting pushed out from the back

hope this makes sense :thumbsup:

Hey lads,

the stupidity has begun!! Tomei 2.8L stroker goodness is on its way :P

Head is getting a full pamper treatment as is the RB oil surge/blow bye issues :P

:cheers:

    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
