OK OK lol........ Well ill start talking bout the boring stuff first like how it drives off boost haha!:nyaanyaa:

Im actually very surprised at how torquey it feels off boost it almost feels as pokey as my FG falcon ute and oddly enough doesnt seem my fuel economy has really changed from 200kw-288kw in fact so far it seems slightly better now with an hour or so on the dyno and bit of cruising and giving it a squirt here and there i done a smidge over 200km on half a tank .

Now to the fun part BOOST! Ok so 1st gear doesnt really exist as you probably cover 20m before you are looking for 2nd lol in second gear it really starts to haul ass at bout 3800 now and is breaking traction at bout 4200 with my kaaz 2way and 255s and it doesnt stop pulling all the way to the limiter and if i stay on it into 3rd gear she chirps and spins for a second then hooks up and away she goes and my evc 6 is registering 22psi at around the 3500 mark! I havent given her a good run in 3rd as you can imagine you are in the bye bye license zone with some spirited driving in the 1st few gears with a few revs in 3rd there arent many numbers left for the needle to go on the 180km/h speedo. Id like to organise a cruise 1 weekend soon so if there are any sydney people reading this get at me and lets talk bout a nice drive to a nice destination..........:thumbsup:

Now mr GTScotT im thinking you should have a tinker with my boost controller when we both got some free time cos i think there is probably a little bit of tweaking to be done with that controller :thanks:

lol stop talking about the bloody HTTP and talk about the bloody car!

Cruise on over to Perth, I wanna see this thing :nyaanyaa:

It will inspire me to get my ass in to gear and get mine finished!!

Hahaha justo ill have to bring my tools and service gear to give her an oil change 500km outta Perth lol did u check out the video link wolverine posted up of 1 of the power runs on the dyno? Your car will be an animal with the forged motor and 30psi big fella so get ya ass into gear haha! The baby GTX is awesome when she gets spinning and the lb's climb so fast!

it whistles a little bit down low but is mostly pretty stealth mate if you go back a page and click on wolverines link you can see 1 of the power runs on the dyno i recorded on my phone :thumbsup:

hey does it whistle much or is it mostly quiet?

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
