Congrats mate!

Amazing results

Get a vid for us to see how it comes on

Vids coming tomorrow... The full power runs etc were held up as the fuel pressure was dropping so they are doing a few things then running it up tomorrow.... I'm pretty pumped, the few people that have heard it said it sounds awesome!!!

Fuel pump out of flow? It would have to be close to the limit?

Yeah it wouldn't have much left in it.... But they said there is a restriction too, they are going to mod a few things and see if it improves.... Then just tune it so it's safe....

It must be an awesome feeling to finally have it going after 2 years of slowly getting everything done!

360rwkw is a shite tonne of power for a stock bottom end rb25det!

What size is your exhaust 3.5 or 4"? I couldn't see it in the build thread...

Thanks Lithium.... Real happy!! :yes:

Mitcho, the exhaust was a surprise, I figured it would hold the power back a fair bit so I unplumbed the gate etc, but it's only a 3" from memory.... The whole time I was worried but it didn't matter, apparently it may be the cause of the boost falling off and a bit of lag BUT it's a 90db exhaust so I can't complain!! :)

360rwkw thats a f**kload of power man, congrats..! I cannot see your sig from my iphone, is the engine completely stock or just the bottom end?

Completely stock with just Tomei Poncams.... It's all just bolt ons, awesome ecu and tuner and E85 working its magic... Stock headgasket, bottom end etc.... See how long it holds up....

Just read your sig, I've got 20bux on the clutch going first ;)

So have you taken it for a good drive yet? After this long it would feel like a new car, a very quick new car lol

I'm actually surprised it held up on the runs... Shouldn't jinx it as its got more work in the morning.... Tunes not complete, so no I havent driven it...

It basically is a new car, suspension, diff and power setup is all different.... And an extra 110rwkw for good measure!! :D

that's one clean looking engine bay, I like the kinda stock-ish look

It was my goal to make a high mount as stock looking as possible... It was only possible with the help from Alex @ Plazmaman and Craved Coatings, oh and Bronx for the airbox... It's everything I wanted... What the best thing is, I retained the quiet 3 inch exhaust which is legal DB so in 5 mins I can plumb back the gate and be legal.... ;)

Are you expecting any more top end from the final runs or is it just tidying everything up?

The boost was dropping off, so with the turbo and exhaust at their limit I'll be more than happy if it reaches that number again safely... The clutch would also be struggling I reckon...

Basically the runs will be to make sure the fuel pressure is safe as it was a concern I think... So glad it's with JEM tho, I know it's in good hands :D

The 3037 should be maxed at that power I think!

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
