So, in the event of rain, shall we postpone or just suck it up?

Suck it up, I need to practice my rain driving :P

After the hillclimb yesterday my tyres are exactly how they were before I entered, even though they were spinning 90% of the time... that's one hell of a way to save money on tyres :P

right back at you.

Yeah heaps :ph34r:, though I can still take victory as its my car :P.

Oooh , r34 , specs?

Its a pretty much standard R34 (stock intake/exhaust/internals), slightly lowered (Tien S-tek springs), nistune ECU @ 175kW, RDA gold slotted/dimpled rotors and EBC greens.

diff is fixed, thermostat is replaced, tow hooks on, battery reloc done, killswitch nearly in, oil flush tomorrow, car is pretty much set! yay! bring on 61's! gonna skip past the 62 lap time mark :-P i got a certain red starion to beat!

yep nice , out of curiosity , what sort of power was it making before the nistune? i only ask because mine feels rather soft (it probably isn't , but the last turbo car i had had 200rwk+ ) , that wouldn't be the silver one i see getting round claremont-ish now and then? .

I might even bring my black snotter out sunday , see if it's faster than the hq pinch.gif , i'll see if i can find smaler diameter wheels for it :blush:

Sunday 14 August

Min 4

Max 13

Morning fog.

Cloudy. Patches of morning frost in the north. Areas of morning fog. Light winds.

Sounds like the perfect day, hopefully no rain but some nice low intake temps for your turbo charging pleasure :D

Yeah, I'm out Austin's Ferry way so that'd be me. It was about 140kW standard, ~ 150kW on 10psi pre-tune.

yep cool , i live out that way too :) , i thought they'd go a lil better than a stock 33 , mine seems about the same as one :unsure: not that i've revved it past 5k :happy:

what a day hey!

Huge turn out, met lots of new people.

Did anyone manage to beat their old PB?

I know Tim got a 68.

Dan got a 72 in the 33 and a 69 in the 34

Leesa got a 76 in the R34

Old mate in the starion pulled out an awesome 61.3!

Funz you were hovering around the 63 mark yeah?

Thanks to everyone that gave me a hand today with my very sad skyline (especially toffy for lending me his car\trailer).

.... I guess I have heaps of bits to sell now if anyone needs anything :P

Might be curious for brake setup and 5 stud conversion for my S13 maybe, or even the motor. Just waiting for the sale of the 4 door.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
