who made that exhaust for you?

Looks good but I don't like those round resonators in the centre position. They really need a smaller one or 2 like the Legalis or an oval shaped one.

Did you check the muffler bearings? Also, last time i was in your car; there was definitely a loose nut behind the steering wheel...

Haven't updated for a while not that I've really done much to it lately but did take it out to SMSP South Circuit again and managed to knock off another second off my lap time with a 1:08.26.

no worries :)

so why would i be sitting on 15PSI then???

do i need to go an buy a boost controller ??? :(

anyways ill put up pic's later of the new system :)

I think there's some variation in factory boost levels, eg my RS should "only" run at 12psi (or 12.6 to be exact) according to most sources, but my Pricol gauge had it at 14.x psi (dropping off to 13psi just before a gear change) on the stock exhaust. Now with full turbo back system it occasionally runs of the scale (15psi gauge only).

A typical boost controller won't let you run lower boost than standard. I think you will have to play with wastegate actuator springs or the like, to achieve that.

yep your right.. rs was 12 psi and axis n ARX were set at 14.6.. i think to pull the extra weight

Penrith City Exhausts did the work, he's worked on all my cars and a few of my mates....... does a top quality job!!!

Stock rear muffler?

yeah stock muffler atm i wanted to see how much better it was and how loud it was before we desided on a rear muffler......... probly gonna go for a EVO X spec muffler with custom twin tips.

19x9.5"? Lol, what size?

20X8.5" could get the 9.5" for the rear but i thought it would be better not to...........

gonna see how they fit on the car if i'm not happy that they fill the guards ill reconsider

also i'm told they will be skyline offset, R35 im assuming...........

If your offset is +30 to +20 you'll kill it, they'll look nice.

the skyline offset i was told should be +30ish....... and if ours is +20, then the wheel will sit furthur in the guard rather than out.

anyways im ordering coilovers while im at it............. pharck i need to get kickin on the overtime LOL

Your AXIS rims are +30 offset, so they'll go out 10mm.

Only if they are the same width rim.

Aren't Axis rims 8" wide?

If so, they should stick out ~15mm compared to the Axis rims I think

You're right ; forgot the new ones were 8.5":blush:

Axis are 18x8"

Yeah 16.35mm :rolleyes: , so the guards will need a roll, but not very much. Depends on tyre width.

Ok, sorry I must be missing something here. What offset did he say these things were?+20 or +30?

I had a quick squiz on the net, and could only findthose wheels in a 20x8.5 114.3 in a +35 offest. With a 120 PDC they come in a +20 or +40. Not saying there aren't more options, but thats all i could quickly find.

So, with a 20x8.5 +35, you will have 11mm less on the inner, and extend 1mm further out. No need for rolling or anything if it clears on the inside.

I'm sorry if i'm barking up the wrong tree, its late, but I just don't want him to be thinking he's going to be rolling guards/shaving wheels...:thumbsup:

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
