Children....Children!!! :P

Anyway, to keep Mr Dave074 happy the car is now down getting ready for the tune :yes:

Wheels were a success and cant believe how they turned out considering it cost me bugger all -

They suit the engine bay and intercooler nicely -

Then we went for a nice long drive to its new home for a couple of weeks -

There are some additions that JEM has added to the list like Billet fuel filter, exhaust cam gear and turbosmart fuel reg etc but its main purpose for being there is -

Haltech PS2000 wire in and tune

Ethanol content sensor

wideband setup

cams and springs install

FULL flex tune for E85 & 98 pump fuels

This is getting exciting and nerve wracking all at once :woot:

Looking good mate :D

What's the reason for the change from Sard reg to Turbosmart reg??

Thanks Man!!

E85 compatibility, and its black :P

You wont have an issue and apparently there are plenty out there running E85 through these but they do not have the approval for the fuel so i THINK they are changing it ;)

God. Damn. It.

Water/meth injection is looking like it's gonna be the go for me, E85 is way too hard! Lol.

PS - funny thing, our cars make identical power with totally different setups :woot:

LOL :rofl2:

Must be all in the Plazmaman :glare: Lol.

Well it's about bloody time Matt :)

The rims came up really well man, I like them. Are they just a flat black or is it just the photo that gives them a gun metal hue???

Good luck with the tune mate, it's been a long ride for you hey!

Is e85 at the bowsers up at the terrace or are you gonna store drums? It's still not local enough for me down here so WMI for me I thinks..

Dibs on a ride when we finally meet up in person ok.

Haha thought that would make you happy :P

They are a satin black, they actually suit the car, although i cant run the original centre caps as the silver looks a bit silly so im not sure what to do there, BUT at least it replaced the hideous things i had on there before, ill keep the rims as daily street rims and get something lighter for the track, the XT7's weigh heaps!!

E85 is about 20 mins away on the Bowsers hence the reason for going full flex fuel setup, BUT i do have 200L ready at home too -

Sounds like the passenger seat is going to cop a work out lol.....

Thought we would have had a power figure by now :(

Like all builds/modifications, there has been issues... Seems my valve springs were a different height or something between inlet and exhaust... I haven't heard the full story yet but it sounds dodgy... It's in the best possible place so I'm

Not too concerned about the bad news...

Power figure will be OK, but will be heavily restricted due to the exhaust I think.... Will post up how it goes....

The exhaust I run is a full 3" system, have been told 3.5 would be better etc... But for the power I'll be running I don't think that counts.....

The restriction/limitation will be due to the Jasma rating, it'll be restrictive and hinder the power output....

My goal is stealth, quiet car... Stock looking, no obvious gauges... Just a stock daily to the untrained eye..

Just to expand on that, I believe the problem with the Japanese exhausts is that to obtain the Jasma approval, a lot of them are not true 3" exhaust. A lot of them step down to 2.5" just before/after the mufflers to help reduce noise, and these step downs can be quite restrictive.

    • Hi all, I need to get this HKS SLD attached to my stock ECU because I've now got the German autobahn and faster European circuits to contend with.  The car is a manual 2dr ER34 with an AT ECU and I've realised the AT ECU has two pins for speed sensor signals: Pin 29: Vehicle speed sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 2) Pin *58: Output shaft rotation sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 1) - *RB25DET A/T model only Before I go butchering this harness, is anyone sure of which pin is the correct one for signal adjustment? The attached document from HKS indicates pin 29 but I found this situation mentioned in the following thread on a different forum (R34 GTT Auto Trans Speed Cut Problem | Zerotohundred) mentioning pin 58 needing to be altered by member zephuros, albeit it seems to be for an RSM-GP and the info appears to be old.  R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-2.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-3.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-1.pdf HKS SLD Vehicle Pin out P59-P70 ER34-pages.pdf

    • People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.
    • What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.
