Do you guys have a dyno down there? .... I'd sure love to dyno my car while it is still fairly standard .... before the LS1 dyno day (when I hope to have my exhaust etc on by then).

What sort of dyno/dyno-tune deal could you get me? :D *cheeky*

Yes we have a dyno. I'll speak to Tim, and get back to you regarding a dyno run on your S15. I'm sure I can twist his arm regarding a deal for you Andrew and all the Skyline Aussie members.

Or otherwise give RPM a ring at 82772266. And ask for Ivan from next Monday.:D

Ivan,

You'll be seeing me from time to time then mate :( I've had a number of modifications done by (or in conjunction with) Tim, Mick, & Steve.

Come to think of it, you'll be getting your hands dirty on a 1UZFE (4.0L DOHC V8 Soarer eng') transplant into a Hilux Surf very very soon :uh-huh: My father in-law is booked in to have his turbo diesel Surf given some mumbo!

I'll be seeing you soon myself, I've got a few basics I want to get done before the dyno day, gotta’ squeeze those last few rwkw :D

Cheers,

Matt.

Andrew Nightcrawler, we can do the power run for u for $40, we can 'tweak' it up to get more rwkw for your 200sx.

If you want a dynotune it will be $137 plus parts. Ring RPM and we will fit u in before the LS1 dyno day. Mention Ivan.

Thanks Matt and Aaron. Will be looking forward for the hilux!!

Thanks Ivan .... I'll definitely take you up on that!

Congrats on the job btw .... I'll bet you can't wipe the smile off your face - get to play with hot cars all day *lucky bastard* :(

hi. just wondering what the cost is involved with that?

thinking of doing it my self.. did you use a crown engine or a soarer?

thanks,

Dave

Ivan,

Thanks mate :) I just want to do a basic once over, change fluids (diff/box/eng/filter) I'm too slack to do it myself & with the hoist it's much easier :( I've already got all the fluids/parts so it'll be a pretty simple. Hopefully I can drop in around the end of the month?

I'm also thinking about trying a set of NGK Iriway7's too? Nobody stocks them on the shelf in Adelaide yet (to my knowledge?) & Autobarn want $30+ea!

For those that didn't know: Iriway/Iritop/Irimac are the newish range of NGK Iridium plugs designed with performance, high comp' & boost levels in mind. They only come in 7,8 & 9 heat ranges. According to AB & NGK rep's HKS plugs are re-badged versions of these plugs?!

For more info read here - http://www.ngkspark.com.au/bulletin_SB01-1.htm

dAVE,

Give Tim a call @ RPM PC, he can give you a good run down as he put the package together. The engine they've sourced was from a Soarer.

I suggested the conversion to the Michael (father in-law) & he said, "Yeah lets do it!" The whole package drive-in / drive out will come to ~9-10k, that includes the g/box, clutch & flywheel set-up sourced by Michael via Melb'. I'm still working on convincing him to add a supercharger :uh-huh:

Cheers,

Matt

Matt,

We can do the plugs. But I would recommend the NGK BKR7EVX which is a platinum no7 heat range plugs for mild 1/2 serious street car.The Iridium ones are good for SERIOUS race applications but they are proven no better on the dyno for HP than the BKR7EVX.

When Tim was in Brunei tuning some cars for street drags, there were some cars over there which were running the Iridium heat range 8 and 9, thay were TOO COLD for daily driving and were fouling up. They were then replaced with the BKR7EVX and were running clean all week and were not missing at all.I'm sure the Iridium are a great thing but you will probably end up favouring the BKR7EVX for your car.

The Iridium and the BKR7EVX retail for $30each and $22 each respectively. But I can do them cheaper if you ring me at the end of this month.

Hope this helps,

Ivan.

G'day mate,

Really appreciate the help dude!

I'm actually already running BKR7EVX's so I guess I'll stick with 'em :) I've noticed a few GT-R owners have mentioned they use them too, & we all agree they're an excellent plug! I guess it's a case of, "when it ain't broke don't fix it" :)

Hope Corey's rail runs some good numbers next weekend!

My car is going in to RPM this Thursday.

Make sure you don't use the powerwindows.. New tint is going on Wednesday Afternoon :D

Fixing up the thermo's.. I need 2 relays for the Twin Thermos.. :)

I was going to get it tuned but I've got it running pretty well now, I've dropped the timing to std now that I'm making 15psi up at 7000rpm, don't want to risk pinging in the hotter weather we are coming in to and i've also wound the Fuel pressure Bleed all the way in as i don't like the idea of it leaning out at all in the mid range.

Anyway it feels quicker than it did when it dyno'd at 156rwkw.

Turbo is coming.. soon.. :) Then I'll get the ECU re-mapped and bring it back to tims to get a possibly final Dyno Read out :)

I'm aiming for at least 200rwkw.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
