Hey mate i remember you, i told you to see matty for tuning as you told me you had problems.

On matty's dyno i made 340rwhwp yet on the weekend the car made 420rwhp with the same set up except blown manifold gasket and has gone almost 121mph with 4psi less boost of what it was tuned on.

I would say it could be your mechanics have either done something to your car or matty isnt tuning it right.

As much as you are sick of spending money, your going to have to spend more as there arent many profesional skyline tuners/ builders here in qld

if you want pm your contact details and il give you a call

harun

with a conversion i would also be looking for all air leaks first...everywhere intercololer pipes vacuum lines everything

check fuel filter

then look at cam timing if adjusted take back to stock then go from there on a dyno.

then check plugs and gap.

set timing to 20 deg adv at 1200rpm

remove exhaust leave just the dump

on the dyno check air fuel ration should be around 12- 12.5 to 1 for a good tune

run something a little better than a t piece but it doesnt have to be electronic just something a bit better..

check regulator pressure make sure it is aroun 35-40psi at idle

the halteck is a map sesor have you totally rewired or bought a plug in harness for it

check your map senso is a 3 bar item

check you are getting wot

some of these are drawing at straws and considering you have made strong power at lower level it leads me to believe there are two problems ignition or fueling....

check coil packs, check regulator and read you ignition maps on higher boost thats what a halteck is good for look at them on the pc...

hope this helps!!

Hey guys, thanks for you're responses. I have a heaps of things that need to be addressed by the sounds of things. Last night i was thinking about just ripping the halteck out and starting again. I will get photo's of the stuff you have asked for as I couldn't find an AR no. I am one of those guys that just say's I want to go fast, how much? fingers crossed they do the right thing.

irs not important as it is still pushing 22psi, which ever way you look at it 22psi is 22psi, only the characteristics of boost delevier and response will be affected by the ar no. on the turbo...

eg... 1.06 on my gtr came in a 5800

.86 comes in a 4800

on the same bosst it stil makes the same figures..

the problem is not the haltech they are fantastic computers, they just need someone that knows about haltechs to work on them.... i recomend you call this bloke

www.justenginemanagement.com

he knows about them more tha anyone he used to make them before starting his own business...

yeh boost controller can have somethingto do with it, not too likely.. but a mate had a turbosmart dualstage and its was just plain shit removed it and was 10 times better.

get a profec b or something similar ive have one and its seriously a good thing and fairly cheap

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
