ah i was going thru hanaldo's build thread and watching his video's and he was saying that he wasnt making enough power and even with extra boost it wasnt making more, probably wrong section :ph34r:

looking at hanaldo's vids and dyno, wondering if its the turbo thats maxed out, cause with the garrett, well my one, seems to gain 10kw every 1psi, no dig just thinking or has it changed lately?

Is possible. But given the size of the turbo, and other results achieved with them, it shouldn't be. Just a matter of crossing things off the list now.

Can. Not. Be. Farked.

They spend just as much time in each others build threads. Same same

:laugh:

The car in this thread works better though, my thread is full of pig.

  1. Buy more springs
  2. Agricultural piping to intake
  3. ???
  4. Profit

LOL you are a special kid i give you that much :P

Martin just enjoy it for a while man! You deserve it after the effort you've put in.....

So big weekend -

So the clutch went in pretty sweet, Another thanks goes out to AGGRODAVE for the torque setting, much appreciated :thumbsup: Rear gearbox seal just arrived at my desk so it will go in tonight and will degrease it all down... Filled the box with the smurphs blood (Redline lightweight shockproof stuff) and fir the exhaust, we fit the new 100 cell venom cat, no noticable change it exhaust not etc at this stage....

Whilst at it i also fit the front coilovers and sprayed the strut bar (Thanks to Kurtis34 for suggesting) and it came up pretty good -

Not sure what to set the coilovers too but at the moment the front is 24 and the rear is 16... Will see how that goes on the road... It also sits about an inch lower now :)

I noticed at Texi the lock on the 34 sucked for the one run i tried to do a skid so i added some steerting spacers and loctite the rods back in to make sure they were secure after doing some research online

Doesnt seem to scrub or foul on anything however i will need to try again with the splashguards back in.

Rolling the guards was much easier than expected, there is no sign from the outside that they are slightly pumped, when you look close you can see the guard angle change but it looks sweet -

It was my first attempt but was a pretty easy job with the roller and hear gun :D

This is how the rear now sits with new coilovers etc -

JEM gave me a new tune to put in to try diagnose the E sensor issue, they have been fantastic as always, am going through it tonight i hope :yes:

Was good to see it all lit up at night, the globes are thanks to 666DAN on the forums a while back

So after the first initial drive to turn it around my opinion on the Jim Berry clutch is absolutely AMAZING :woot:

I got excited and took some happy snaps, paint is crap but it still comes up OK for a nugget! Cant wait to get the paint sorted and have a nice clean car again -

looks great, great when everything goes to plan.. im interested to know the traction difference of going from the tein's to the BC coilovers, looks like you have kumho's on there too.

im guessing it didnt squat much on the rear and the kumho's wouldnt grip?

So many updates!!! dude your car looks amazing

give it ere!

Was a huge weekend! Pretty sore but worth it.... Back at it again after work! Farrrrkin SAU NATS :woot:

I've changed tyres too but the 275's on it arent known to be the grippest things on the planet lol..... They only have a 2 week lifespan before the RS-R's go on for the Nats anyway.... Powerplay is going to be epic!!

Ive set the rear softer and am trying to get proper wheel align settings for tomorrow. That should make it nice and grippy!

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
