Nice work guys, looks like she's going to be a sleeper engine bay.:ph34r: If you decide to get any of the exhaust ceramic coated down the track; let me know, I know a guy who's a perfectionist.:thumbsup:

Lol @ "Daleo magic" ; I thought you & the missus were looking the other way while I was shagging your manifold. Mmmm, cast irony...:3some:

looking forward to the finished article.

passed by last night just before 7 as i was in the area, only to find the gate locked haha. Thought u guys must've been exhausted and hit the sack already.

looking good so far! obviously not as staright forward as my supercharger setup, but look like this kit will be pefrect for PM35 aswell!

Well, did a little bit more on the car today...The ECU harness is now out of Medium/well done territory, heat wrapped and out of the way of the exhaust, as are whatever else could be moved from the back of the motor. Re-assembled the coolant piping, and trial fitted the intake which looks good. Bad news is that the Fabricator is in Fiji until next week, so that slows process down. In the mean time I'd like to sort out the rest of the intake, intercooler, and whatever bits and pieces are left over. Cannot fit exhaust - will need fabrication. Also try and dump my ECU for sending over to Abbey motorsports for Uprev.

Looks the goods. Have you got a power ballpark you're expecting when its done?

Is it going to be tuned on 98 or E85?

Its going to be dyno'd RWD, on 98 (there is no E85 within 40kms of me....) Power- we'll just have to see. 240rwkw would be nice... but who knows. Thats what a 350z that had the kit just got. Dynos can read so differently, its more about how it drives- and I suspect it will be a torque monster!

Well, Intercooler is mounted up, with the intake piping post intercooler OK. Quite neat. I'll get pics when I can.

Was fun buzzing a hole in the front member to fit the cooler.... whistling.gif

Custom parts should be sorted early next week, so hopefully it'll be on the road by mid next week.

Spotted 4 NM35's at Stagea Garage this morning! Good to see Spoolin back on the road!

Nice work mate, you must be very pleased!

What custom parts have to be done?

Nice work mate, you must be very pleased!

What custom parts have to be done?

Just the turbo piping to the intercooler, and some work to the exhaust. Should be pretty straight forward.

That turbo to cooler pipe is a pain, especially getting around the driveshaft. Probably best to fabricate it from stainless for strength mate. Its coming along nicely.

How is the tuning side going?

Agree- Stainless is a good idea, I'll mention it to them.

Tuning, nothing much really. Enquiring if some tuners will use the Uprev software. I don't really want to dump the ECU until the car is back running. It needs good battery voltage to do so, otherwise the process won't run. Having a driveable car is a priority!

Well, today I dumped the ECU with the UPREV software and cable. 3 and a bit hours of waiting! Oh well. its done now. I have emailed it off to Abbey Motorsports in the UK. They are going to tell me if I can use the uprev software, which I am almost certain I can, and give me something able to be tuned and flashed!

Ever wondered how big an ECU was...?

The file I have is just 1mb of binary. For a very complex machine, the file is kinda small I thought....

In other news, I'm still waiting for this fabrication to be done....rant.gif

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
