ok boys and girls

car has been booked in with the tuner and should be ready within a fortnight.

Current mods:

- PFC

- -9s with 18psi

- 3.25" front pipes

- 3" cat

- 3/3.5" catback

- Stock injectors and AFMs

made 270rwkw @ 15psi with a shitty compliance cat and exhaust on it... is prob making around 280rwkw at the moment

new mods (the major ones) will be as follows:

- Haltech ECU

- Haltech boost controller plugin

- Twin Intank bosch pumps

- 1000cc Injectors

- Aftermarket fuel rail

- de cat

- 3.5" catback

- EFLEX Tune (allows to run a mixture of both 98 and e85)

Plan is to chuck it on United e85 and wind the boost up to around 28-30psi and see what she makes

hoping for around 380kw

Stay tuned!

i think it will go bang!

no offence, but i doubt that you'll be able to push the -9's past 350rwkw (you'll probably have boost control issues especially above 24psi)

especially on a stock motor, i think you'll find that it'll probably spin a bearing

28-30psi standard engine/head gasket etc?

PT did another stock RB26 with -5s which made 410kw and is holding strong so far...

we'll see... if it pops its just an excuse to rebuild :thumbsup:

lets see what happens...

gotta push the boundaries every so often

Cool, do you know the size at the turbo end? Most seem to be 2.5 or 2.75"

Interesting to note Unigroup to like Link's whereas Powertune seem to like Haltech's. Each to their own I guess

I'd say it would be 2.75"

not too sure to be honest

those front pipes look chunky :)

are you gonna run the stock intercooler for that boost/power level?

yep if you boys want some let me know... they pretty good value too... think they set me back $300

running the stock cooler... was going to upgrade but have been told by numerous ppl (including the tuner) that it will be fine

Very keen to see this result!

Standard cams?

The whole flex fuel thing is awsome. Just drive around and not worry about a thing. Does the Haltech setup come with a Ethanol % display?

yep standard cams... wanted more mid range than anything else really

the Haltech doesnt have a e85 guage as such but you can monitor the % if you hook it up to a laptop

cant wait :banana:

I feel ripped off reading this :closedeyes:

I thought this was the end result thread lol... Guess we wait 2 more weeks :D

I'm with a few others, not so sure the -9s will hold 28-30psi. They generally always fall over so very keen to see end result

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
