hey guys getting my rb 26 built at moment in wa at crown engines with help from paul from red r racing

i was wondering what type of fuel pump should i use it has an aftermarket one in it now but am unsure of what it is ??

would i have to run surge tanks for 600 bhp or close too ??

and how do i go about setting that up , i plan to do some track use as well from time to time

for a street car a single nismo in-tank will support 600hp (enough fuel for 700cc injectors). You don't need a surge tank to make that power. however if you are going to take this car to the circuit a surge tank is a good idea. simply because it'll mean you can enjoy your car on the track right down to an empty tank. without one you will get fuel surge at anywhere from half tank to 1/4 tank. but if you are just going to the track for fun (ie not competitive) then the simply solution is just keep it over 1/2 tank for each session and you'll be fine.

if you do just get the nismo intank i'd also upgrade the wiring with a direct power feed from the battery (through a relay). tomei (and I think sard too) even sell kits to do it for about $100 if you are not electrically minded.

Hey Danny,

Did you manage to get a hold of Paul at all?

Cheers,

Lukas

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
