:woot: Wow 20/100?! On eflex my economy is around 15.7/100 ;) but id imagine the higher the ethanol content the higher the consumption

My economy went to crap with the switch to United and these cold starts aren't helping. More cranking enrichment, twice the fuel at under 20 degrees and it still isnt perfect. It takes a lot of fine tuning to get it spot on, I don't know how Trent does it so easily.

greddy type s coilovers (6/8 on hardest setting), castor bushes, swaybars, pineapples and nismo 1.5 diff

tyres = 235/40/18 Nitto NT-05

I have done all my suspension but i think its a bit stiff in the rear, i also have the Nismo 1.5 way (amazing diff), i guess a decent set of tyres should do the trick by the sounds of it!

Nice I have done all that an a few other things, do you reccomend the types s coilovers, mate had them in hos 34r but haven't been in gtst with them

Nitto nt05 is a great tyre, I couldn't get them in the right size in 17 diameter though so went with Yokies ad08. Grippy as all hell.

I'm hoping to join the club in the next couple of weeks, my WMI kit has arrived so I'll install this week and get it tuned soon after. Should nudge me into the 300 club ;)

haven't you also got no camber on the rear Joe...??

castor bushes wont make any difference to rear wheel grip.. :rofl:

lol... i wrote camber and castor, and then realised that we aren't really talking about the fronts here so i deleted it.... must have deleted the wrong one.

i only have camber bushes on the rear. it's not flat, but it's reasonably close

How can you people get such good fuel economy with 300ish rwkw? My daily driver R34 200rwkw ALWAYS gets 19-20L/100kms, it is seriously REALLY f*ked. My right foot is not too bad, just the ocassional squirt to 5-7k rpms in 1st, 2nd and 3rd lasting less than 10 seconds.

Haha ive seen how u drive. U should buy a prius

My right foot is not too bad

Yes, yes it is. Either that or it's the tune.

There are only two factors really, but im guessing it's a foot problem.

And my figures quoted earlier - that wasn't using the O2 sensor. That was with it disabled and the tune adjusted to suit.

400rwkw rb26 would be more appropriate as 350kw is about the norm isnt it

I actually thought that may have been the case. ;)

aalright after my embarresing 35r result ive scraped that setup and now got me a 3076r 6 boost and tial 44mm will be ran on pump results shouldnt be all that far away

I run a 6Boost, tial 44mm and 3037.... Car only made around 311rwkw on 17psi, so you should be able to get in the club ;) or just run E85 as it made 340rwkw on the same boost etc ;)

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
