Just something silly to keep you amused until i update this thread properly with what is/will be new........ :woot:

Nice 34 mate! Just checked out the Ringwood vids - my 3076 setup on E85 makes 300rwkw by 5.5k rpm - getting it to the ground in 1st or 2nd is practically impossible - that's probably what it looks like when I take off hard! ;-)

I was going to go the ethanol sensor / flex fuel route, but the E85 from Caltex here in Adelaide has been consistent all year round so far, and with the wideband it doesn't seem all that necessary. How has it been working for you?

How much have you spent all up do you reckon (if you don't mind me asking)?

Thanks :) 5500rpm? That is pretty laggy.... Are you sure?

The Sensor is great as the car is full flex fuel so i can use 98, E85 and anything inbetween....

Spent? Basically 3 years of everything i had spare lol.... No idea but its a lot!

Its certainly thinking outside the box, I've personally never seen it tried on an RB25, but I'm sure the results will be spectacular :D

Hmmmm have you got a DIY thread on how to do this? I see gains to be had :P

Actually while I'm in here...

Hey Mat. UPDATES!! I know you're keeping secrets! :domokun:

Updates will be coming soon! Its getting the tune finally done with the bigger injectors :yes:

300kw by 5,500rpm laggy? Or are you just kidding? Lol. :P

The dyno sheet you posted (page 30 I think?) shows you are (or were) only just making over 300 at those revs - and I still have factory manifolds and a low mount internal wastegate turbo...! There's also a restriction somewhere, as it hits 300 and then just holds to redline on 18psi - adding more boost just makes the intake temps soar and the power drop. Theories are either the non-split dump pipe or the internally gated exhaust housing... Not really keen on spending any more money to find out though - the only time I can really open her up is when I head up into the hills anyway, it is a daily driver after all. Trying to get the power down now around town is just about impossible (as you'd know well) - There's a reason why GTRs exist... heh. 3rd flat out is an awesome feeling, but you're in serious loss of license territory by then! ;)

Your car sounds exactly the same as mine, but then again I suppose it should since it's the same turbo! And it sounds freaking tough by the way. :yes: Anyone that knows Skylines would know it's not stock.

I went with the Haltech P2000 as well - awesome ECU. People freak out when I show them what you can do with a laptop. It's amazing how many people have no idea what's going on behind the scenes with modern fuel injection.

I'm thinking of moving interstate this year and will probably need to get rid of the car (booo!), so I actually added up all my receipts the other night - imported the car 100% stock in 2007 for $23k complied, and my receipts for all mods (including wheels but not tyres or servicing) came out to around $27k. Not as bad as I imagined really... over 6 years it doesn't seem that bad. Oh, if anyone's interested in one of these toys pm me, I'd probably be 'happy' to part with it in the low $20k range... :sleep:

    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
    • Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3 
    • It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
