You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

I was behind GTRRKT on the way up. And that was fast enought for me.

But I drive like a grandma :D

Oil temp went up to 125-130c on the run up though. Was getting a little worried...

Your oil weight is too thin.

Go for 10/50 or 10/60 at next oil change and better do it ASAP cos real summer's coming shortly.

Mine is approx 85-95 degrees (factory gauges are useless compared to Nismo units *sighs* more thing I miss...).

Which number is the weight the lower or the higher one? I can't remember?

I run 5w 40 Motul 8100 fully synthetic.

What sort of oil temps should I be worried with the rb25? And what are the consequences on the engine if the oil temp is high?

Just did an oil change :(

Weight is higher.

5 is good for quick warming up. That is what Nissan recommend. 40 is bit too thin for summer climate, I'd go 50 or 60 though.

I went home via the Esplanade again, get held up by Subaru Outback for 4 minutes, aargh! Luckily he/she pulled over to some spot.

Lol I was just cruising up...I had that stock blue S15 in front of me.

My oil temp was only on 86c on the way up.

Yep, I was hidden in amongst the three white boys I had in my car.

Last night was good fun. Great organising Tony and great turnout.

The only problem is now I want a R34 GTR so I can go fasssssttttteerrrrr...

The uphill was awesome and the drive home was heaps of fun. Great to see the Ae86 starting sideways at the lights...

Fixed for accuracy.

the 50/60 is the protection of the engine or highest operating temp

and i think the 0-15w is the cold operating temp or something like that

I forget, its been a while lol.. but my uncle is a lube specialist at Mobil and has previously said anyone from SAU can call him anytime to ask questions if you like :)

the 'weight' of the oil is for the lower operating temperature, as the other number represents the part of the oil with the higher kinematic viscosity at the same temp

edit: im a dipshit, must read all posts before replying >_>

Indeed. Was chasing him, he can drive that is for sure.

If Michael (miguelone) doesn't slow both of us up, Chris would kill me both in Esplanade and Arthurs Seat.

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By R34_GT to Turbo · Posted

      Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
