Ahaha, not to worry about that, my future list of planned mods (*cough wish list cough*) is WELL under construction :thumbsup:. Moar powah indeed.

I think stock is usually closer to 160awkw from what I've seen though. But still good gains for $in for sure.

Have been lurking many threads :P

Can't wait.

Still a long wait to go though, haha. *continues the dream*

Edit: Also how's the steak shop coming along? Feeling like a steak soon... when do you guys open? :P

Edited by kaitoukid

I was out there earlier actually. Looks like a restaurant now, plaster is almost finished around the place so rest of the fitout should be done in 2-3 weeks.

Hope to open end of Jan and then be in full swing by mid/late Feb (won't open to capacity right away). Liquor License won't be ready till Feb anyway so it'll all fall into place nicely

brought a pioneer vsx-527-k, great a/v reciever, very cheap, 397, but took it back cos the media streaming / internet radio interface was sub ordianry

if you have an old a/v reciever and are keen to upgrade this unit is a bargain at 397. its a shame i wasnt so keen on the streaming/internet radio (even with DLNA)

the interface was clunky, cumbersome and just slow for my usage. back to vsx-522 and media monkey

its all in the gearing and final ratio that makes up for the lag

how else do you make so much power and midrange from a 4cyl 2 litre with a big single

this

with the bigger turbo, my skyline made full boost at 3200 and the evo makes the same at 4000 (dyno - 4th gear) but they both feel close to the same and the evo is a tad more responsive, despite making boost nearly 1000 revs later

Power commander and BMC filter installed.

One step closer.

What's left?

Glad I got mine running today, f'ing thing, wasn't what I wanted to spend the day on.

Damn it sounds good with the aftermarket exhaust though

Yeah for every Skyline gear change, EVO is doing about 1.5 gear changes. Such a nice gearbox though, punching 1st to 3rd so seamless

Waiting on the o2 sensor eliminator, and the replacement indicator wiring adapters to arrive.

Once I've got those I can put it all back together and it should be good to go. Gotta get down to Vicroads and get a new plate for it too, cars etc can all be done online but for some reason they make you go into a branch for bikes ffs.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
