Hey zoom appreciated hearing your experience with the GTX mate sounds like its a good thing cant wait till next week to get my car back and see how hard it pulls.

Sounds like your car spins wheels a hell of a lot haha just wondering what kind of diff and suspension mods u might have? Have u had and boost control issues with the smaller actuator?

No diff work just the suspension, just as whiteline swaybars, whiteline pineapple kit, camber upper bushes front and rear, tein super street (setting at 345mm front arch to wheel center). The rear camber i set to -0.5degree and toe in 1mm to give me more traction, while the front -2degree with 2mm toe in and maximum castor.

Never had any problem with the garrett 1 bar actuator. my old hks ecv3 seems to hold the boost pretty steady to redline, may drop like 1psi. It seem like come on boost reasonably quick.

previously when i installed the pomcams while with the gcg highflow, i have gained 400-500rpm. I don't know if the big actuator can actually bring the boost on earlier.

Got my car back yesterday unfortunately i didnt get a dyno sheet because ive got a boost control issue that i need to sort out and ive also got an idling issue :rant: so the tune isnt finished yet

Yuvaz said i made 270kw @ 20psi which was a lil disappointing number wise BUT it feels unreal pulls like a freight train is very responsive and the sound is amazing!

Does anybody know where i could get my hands on some English instructions on how to setup a HKS EVC boost controller?

Haha nice!:rolleyes: 320kw its a big juicey number but how long is a unopened rb25 gunna last with that kinda power? I have heard that the 250-270kw zone is the safe power limit? (so to speak)

mate some are good some dont last long..... i am from a drifting background so u can understand how we treat rb25s...(badly)

some of the racing guys have been making 550hp atw with unopened RB25, e42, gt35r, plennum and cams for 2 seasons... and i know of a couple rbs that have been making 450hp on pump fuel for 4 years....

its only like $1500 for a new one every 4 years.... but its a fun 4 years

Thats not a bad number at all Micko. Remember its just a number.

What is the idling issue? Is it mixture related? Remember it was playing games with us when i did the quick road tune

Hello miss sexy :P yeah the number doesnt mean a thing when the right foot goes down mate cos its a beast now haha! I didnt have the rocker cover breather plumbed into the suction line so its probably sucking air from there so thats something i gotta do this weekend to try sorting that idle out & so the process of elimination begins :blush:

It feels really good considering its not tuned properly Yavuz said hes got some holes to fill down low in the tune yet but once ive got the boost controller sorted

i set the controller to 15psi and i get around 19 or 20psi boost :spank: and that breather line hooked up it should be an hour on the rollers away from the tune being finished properly :banana:

Well ive had a few days of fun at this stage lol and im nowhere near those numbers so hopefully it will be 1 of those good ones that hangs in there for a while!:whistling:

Thats unreal 550rwhp on a stock motor thats awesome!

Testimate to how good nissans little RB's are!:worship:

Haha Andy exactly! Who cares if you got a car that drives like a million bucks on and off boost and puts the power to the ground nicely????

Its all bout the number isnt it?:blink: HAHA!

You can't dick schwiiing unless you have a bigger number Mick.

Who cares how it drives....sif that matters. :nyaanyaa:

well its not much fun telling people you have a 4 inch dick,

even if you can use it...lol

Haha now that would be impressive! yeah should be interesting i think you need to jump behind the wheel of my car when u get the chance Andy

4" across the eye?

Hopefully we can overlay our dyno runs in about 2 weeks.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
