Bit of an odd question but has anyone on here wired an rb26 engine to run as a standalone? Or kno where i can get the info? Have tried lots of searching and really cant find an obvious solution only got a few days till my car has to be finished and stressing a bit too much at the moment to sit down n figure it all out for myself. Any help would b greatly appreciated.

Anyone keen for a meetup this friday night or perhaps on the weekend? Recently moved to Newcastle and wouldn't mind meeting some new people!

If you are driving an import in Newcastle i would suggest picking your meet point carefully! I probably wont be around Friday but possibly will be on the weekend depending on the weather etc...

If you make a meet up let me know and ill see what i can do :)

Will probably be busy friday at this stage.. starting to work on my house this week so will be flat out for awhile i would say ha.

did pick up my new car on the weekend... got an evo 9... has nothing on the gtr for excitment and driving feel, but is quite comfortable for everyday driving and is abit of fun, and havent had a chance to take it for a good drive yet. It is dual mapped to run on e85 which it goes really well on, but im on pump atm as the closest united with e85 is bloody metford it seems... will do the job for a few years im sure and i think i will like going back to one car.

You can run Eflex... Its at Charlestown, Newcastle etc...

United is only Metford, Necknock and i think there is another one at East Maitland happening too!

Pics of Emo?

Yea its tuned to united e85 though... and from what i have heard the eflex stuff is usually around the e70 mark? and trying to avoid a retune/ getting ethenol sensors etc.. but will see how we go, going to head out to metford for the next tank i think, will see how much better it goes side by side ha.

If you are tuned on E85 you will get away with E70 (Itll just run a bit richer i think)... But you cant do it the other way around E70 --> E85 etc....

It will go a hell of a lot better on the green stuff :yes:

Many mods? Colour? Pics? :D

yea ok, i asked the guy and he said his tuner said its best not to push it too hard on eflex, but i didnt really believe much of what he said anyways haha... might need to track down the tuner and ask him about it...

yea i did the test drive when it was on e85, couldnt really open it fully up in surburban sydney but it felt very fast ha. supposedly has 275awkw on e85, and 250ish on 98, although i think it feels slower than the gtr i think which had 242... so im guessing it might be around the 220-230 mark possibly...

it has full exhaust, dump pipe, pod filter, injectors, fuel pump, rotors, clutch, ebc, bov, slotted rotors, all intercooler piping... think that is about everything, the guy didnt seem positive about exactly what was done, dont think he did the work to it. its black.. no pics yet sorry, will take some soon and throw them up.

Sounds good man, who is the tuner?

Haha, did you get kicked out of the QLD section and decide to come stalk NSW? ;)

Nah not kicked out, just nothing going on so I've been stalking around everywhere. Couldn't find the nsw whore thread so thought this one was as good as any

Yer it's going well man since I got the cam swap done. Had it out to downshift at Queensland raceway a couple weeks ago which was fun. Chopped a lot of cars and also got chopped a bit.

Here's a video: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QZmDEw66Ecg

And one of me racing a v8 m3 god it sounded nice: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zbD8-oxtWAU

Will be getting a gutfull of nitrous in the coming months ;)

How's your rig coming along man? That neo still holding together lol

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
