hey guys

been floating around this forum for a while now, mainly to sell parts from my previous cars (s13,180sx, another s13 and then an s14) and brothers skylines.

i have recently however got into the world of skylines with the quick purchase and strip down of my mates r33 gtst.. after realisation of it having bent chassis rails i quickly sold it.. luckily not long after i met another member on the forums "nur33" who was selling his r33 gtr shell.. which now brings me to today.

basically i plan to turn the old nur33 into a drag/circuit weapon and one like no other r33 on this planet.

this is where some people aren't going to like what i say next, but please feel free to hate haha

Engine is going to be a TOYOTA 2jz and i WILL be keeping it 4wd using the rb26 sump and r33 5 speed gtr box

yes yes yes, i am crazy!!

anyways the 2jz bottom end is already machined and waiting to be put together parts so far are

mahle pro series pistons

manley turbo tuff i beam rods

arp l19 headstuds

arp mainstuds

acl race bearings

standard toyota rebuild kit

head will be a full ferrea or supertech kit and kelford 280ish cams with whatever porting i can afford at the time i get it done.

im yet to start making the intake and exhaust manifolds but the turbo i have waiting to go on it is a gtx4202r and is accompanied by a trust 150mm drag cooler.

brakes are off my old s14 which are alcon 6pot 383mm x 36 fronts and 4pot 343mm x 34 rears of the top of my head, bought from an awesome memeber on this forum JAGR33

suspension is bc er coilovers for now with mostly stock arms all over

thats about it for now anyways, got alot more parts sitting there waiting to go on but ill talk about them when i get around to installing them.

basically i have been working on the electrical and interior/exterior side of things for now until more funds come in for the engine work

so heres some pics as it sits today,

got a long way to go!!

didnt achieve much this break off work as i had to go to brisbane for most of it. i did however decide to remake the dash and the bar behind it.. i wasnt happy with the height of the dash or look, want it to be very slim like the scorch racing s15 dash if you have ever seen it. dash is still yet to be folded up but the bar is mostly complete.

bought a set of standard mirrors off of krzysztof, highly recommended seller.. bought from him quite a few times now and everything has come packaged very well and communicates great, thanks buddy.

replaced the previous bonnet latches/pins with aerocatch latches

acquired a pretty much new condition arc prestige radiator from a good mate, thanks Chris!! to which i promptly welded on a set of -16 jic fittings

also gave my gtx4202r back to mtq for a trade in on a gtx4508r

i think i am going to struggle to find a good spot for the 45r to live in the engine bay, its just too bigggg!!

anyways heres some more pics

2j powered GTR = Sacrilege.

Would have been nice seeing the RB in there but hey 2js are built strong to start with!

You don't work in the Tile Industry do you?

Hahah sorry!!

Na man im a diesel fitter like every other person in mackay hah

This is going to be an awesome buIld can't wait to see more!

More soon, im off work this week.. Should have the new dash all sorted this break..

you far north queenslanders are crazy!!!

Thats one big mother of a turbo, what sorta numbers you going to be looking towards?

cant wait to see how this turns out

Just chasing more power than my housemates supra which is 903rwhp hahah.. His car was in performance imports 2 or 3 issues agoas a cover car, plates are 2scary

nice to see parts have gone to a toyota! :woot:

Thanks buddy, i like to call it a nitoyosan though hah

    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
