In draw through you can run what ever you want. Just need to size it correctly and play with the jets.

The limitation will be what carb you can get cheap and what adapters you can find/bodge together for cheap.

A single side draught weber will work, ditto dellortos or any other side draught type carb.

I think the old Werritt special sigma turbos ran a single 1.5SU. Those kits pop up occasionally for cheap.

I've seen holleys used but it's ugly as the carb is designed to sit flat so you need this 90 degree bend/adapter thing. Plus the holley premium...

I reckon it'd be cheaper trying to find an old analogue microtech fuel only comp (ah the memories) and run the original injectors.

Emanage blue running 2 1000cc injectors? Cheap as chips. :)

This ..

probably wouldnt cost much more than a webber would anyway

This,

wouldnt work, as i'd need a factory ECU to run the Emanage off

Lol yeah Matty, toying with some ideas

Had a quick flick through, but has anyone suggested "boxing" the carby?

For terms of simplicity and dirt cheap cost, you could run a smallish single injector that comes on with boost, rigged up to the distributor for switching/duration to match the engine speed, but obviously will require a high pressure pump and some electronics....

Not room to box the carb, and doing that still never works quite right, because the Carb then has no laminar airflow running through the ventruies, as its basically just stagnant air.

Also doesnt solve the issue of the boost pressure forcing fuel back through the metering blocks and into the bowls.

      R35 GT-R production ends after 18 years

      By Rezz · Posted

      Order for the 2025 model R35 GT-R were accepted from 3rd March and 26th August the last order rolled off the production line at the Tochigi plant. Concerning the R35 GT-R replacement, current Nissan CEO Ivan Espinosa said "Nothing has been decided about the GT-R at this time, but we are well aware that everyone is waiting. The GT-R will evolve and reappear in the future. Please be patient until that day comes." Nissan has a lot of issues with management and finances so take Espinosa's words with a big grain of salt. From what discussions I've had and read about here in Japan, not a lot of people are confident about Nissan's future, let alone the next GT-R.

      Thanks. We getting some parts along too so he will be solving the speed issue like next week so i will let you know what he came up with.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By MBS206 · Posted

      21 is explicitly the coils detected as the issue. Is it guaranteed the actual issue? No. Just the ECU thinks it is. When you say rattling, describe it better, get an audio clip as best you can if possible.

      Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
