At the start of the week I got a text from Piggaz... then decided almost straight away to rip up the handbrake on the build.

With Piggaz heavily involved now we have decided to take things to a whole new level. We are going big, the head is nuts so we need a hotside equally as nuts.  Micko is onboard, & Scotty from Insight is along for the ride consulting on all our ideas.

Anyway, had a big saday barbie with Micko/Piggaz, got tanked, and finalised all the details. Sent a few emails overseas then not long after passed out on the lawn :6_smile:

As of last night I've got more fuel system bits on the way, will be running the godfather of FPR's....& the don of fuel filters.

So now you're thinking, so all we decided over the BBQ was a couple of fuel parts? Wrong.

Tial MVS wastegates. BOOM. Manifold will be made in QLD by Kyle & we are speccing it up with EGT weld-ins for good measure. I'll leave this as the last clue as to what will be happening on the hotside, I'm sure some of you can guess which turbo I'll be running.... ;  )

Haha, I should've put money on you changing the turbo setup.

Good to see you making use of the head.

Will be a nice combo, even if it still sounds like dicks ;)

There was no way that GT Series, restricted head gasket popping ass end thing was staying on there. No need to be running snails designed in the 90’s when we are almost in 2018.

 

 

This will now be the first SR20 powered machine running the EFR7670 T4 1.05A/R.

Got on the phone to GCG, negotiated a price, and pulled the trigger. Will be ceramic coated and ready early January.

I've already had noob keyboard warriors claim the rear housing is too big, but that's just complete nonsense. The rear housing will take everything the head can throw at it, & the engine will BREATHE like its supposed to.

We expect that the car will be completely frightening to drive with a high level of response, especially when compared to 'one size smaller' Garretts/Precisions.

Yep, this is now a complete "HOLD THE F**K ON" build!!!!

Hopefully the SR handles the Alcohol better than the owner ?

1 rare breed and the grass was looking comfortable ?

HAHA!!!

Pls m8, was drinking you blokes under the table till the rare breed kicked in :4_joy:

We have a new logo for the build thx to piggaz...the badger will be eating the -5 variety GTR's for breakfast... :6_smile:

Come on dude ya shooting low looking to pick on old dirty -5 GTR's. Stock turbo Evo on E85  is chopping that junk ?

All this time and money to target GTRs using old school turbo tech like that's some kind of decent goal lol

So, you're saying that a lighter car with a much better turbo setup and an expensive head will be faster than a heavier car with old school turbos and likely a stock head?

No f**king way!

What's the real goal here? Low 10s? High 9s? Laptime at a given track?

Please don't tell me all you're worried about is chopping basic bolt on GTRs lol

We have decided to stall this build as hard as possible and buy a GT-R instead...

You best be given updates you f**k :D

Progress on the S15 has been slow, been spending a lot of time at the drawing board and just finished importing an R33 GT-R from Tokyo. 

On the exhaust side we've got the custom race dump designed & fabricated this weekend - EFR7670 TS 1.05, 304SS 3.5" downpipe & Tial MV-S 38mm wastegates. The rest of the exhaust will continue throughout the week.

After planning the fuel system in more detail to future-proof the car, we fabricated a custom surge tank to suit the Pierburg 700Lph brushless fuel pump. The tank obviously has a lot more volume than anything you can buy off the shelf. The Pierburg is a serious bit of pump & will help save plenty of operating current compared to running dual Walbro 460's. Plus, I'll be able to run higher base pressures for better fuel atomization. For the main tank we made a custom CNC fuel hat & inside there will be an Elixir 700lph Ultraflow pump w/ controller.  Everything has been anodised black.

Once exhaust fab is done, we will start on the fuel system. After we position everything, I'll make a shopping list and start ordering the Earl's Ultrapro lines & fittings to start plumbing it all up.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
