Im working Saturday too but should be home around the 4 zone id say give us a buzz and hopefully our timing is good because im curious to see what u think having driven many turbo set ups

hmmm Saturday I am out your way....

Motor is completely stock no cams mate dont know bout anymore boost im running around 21psi now so i think its fairly high for a stock motor lol it did spike up to nearly 27psi for a little while before i noticed and backed off but it didnt ping or anything so should have plenty of fuel with my Tomei pump and 850cc PE's but it did spin my 255's in 3rd gear at bout 90kph haha it felt awesome!:teehee:

just want to compare to mine in regarding to the air flow rate. Are you intending to run higher boost? do you have cam?

Gday Harry :nyaanyaa: yeah it did fix it mate CHEERS! found some english instructions now so im bout to go have a play with the controller because its still running high for example its set at 15psi on the controller now but goes up to 19-20psi but its stable and not spiking like it used to so i think its to do with the boost offset settings or the likes but ill be back on soon when i have play and take her for a squirt :cheers:

Did gravity fix your EVC or what Mick?

You never got back to me with a full result :rolleyes:

with cams it will bring your boost on earlier and give you atleast 10kw everywhere. Yeah, i've been running 20psi with gcg for the last 5 years and now with the gtx i'm running 23psi on the stocker. Finger cross! lucky i don't drive alot. Maybe 255-275 semi slick time for you!! :thumbsup:

So what is your rpm when you hit 20psi?

Haha yeah i dont drive mine much either ive had my car for 12 months now and done about 2500-3000kms. In second gear its bout 4000rpm and it really starts to haul ass all the way to 7500rpm 3rd is probably around 3700rpm maybe slightly less :whistling: been seriously thinking about poncams to help with lag because after being used to the 200kw and stock turbo response the lag was really noticable even though it drove much nicer off boost though i must say! But when it comes on now my smile is probably 2 inches wider now its simply alot of fun to drive now. :banana: So if i could get it boosting earlier it wouldnt really be that far off stock response that would be UNREAL!

Believe it or not my car doesnt really spin wheels mate even in 1st gear when you put your foot down! it just hooks up its awesome! When my boost controller settings are sweet ill probably put 25psi into her briefly and see how that feels or get an E85 tune which i initially was gunna do :thumbsup: i love it!

Mate that is a sight better than what mine did the other night and ever since I put it down in 3rd. It slipped the clutch and smashed the limiter as soon as it came on boost in 3rd. Even driving from no boost to full boost it starts to slip.

You must be stoked with your car now, I know I am with mine (apart from the clutch) My grin is just like yours biggrin.gif

Thats bit of a bummer mate but once your clutch is sorted the fun will begin good luck with it!:thumbsup:

Yeah i am stoked with it but she only fried 3rd when my boost hit 26.6psi haha on 21psi it just sits down and boogies i love it!

My blitz gauge only goes to 1.5 bar and i watched the needle fly straight to the bump stop! the motor didnt make any noises it shouldnt but i backed off anyways lol!

The smile is what its all about mate and if your smile is like mine you are very much a happy man too :cheers:

More lift + more duration = less gas velocity at low revs

So even if the actual RPM that max boost is reached is lower, the car will have less power off boost

Something that does help is VCT, don't think it brings on boost any earlier but gives it more off boost pull.

You could do something funky with retarding the ignition timing massively as that will get you boost in idle, but you'd want it switch controlled otherwise it will be horrible to drive and f**k you economy.

Well i dont want it any doughier off boost so that rules cams out for me! It feels good the way it is and once my tune is finished it will be better!:merli:

My car is a 97 33 so itd have vct yeah? I bought HKS cam gears and timing belt which arent installed is there any benefits to installing them apart from them looking pretty in my engine bay??pinch.gif

Its not as simple as doing this, you wont make boost on idle, the engine just isn't producing enough exhaust gas just sitting there. Rally cars that have anti-lag require a fair amount of revs and basically misfire certain cylinders and play with fuel and timing. It's not real great for the engine either I dont think but they throw a new engine at the car every rally

All R33 GTS-t's have VCT

I thought the anti lag set ups worked by basically pumping fuel into the exhaust manifold? I guess thats just probably 1 of the set ups they have played around with :blink:

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
