mine is highflow OP6 (GT2871) on 25Det Neo - 245rwks at 17psi

not sure there is much more in them to be honest.

best go for optimum not maximum (bad shit happens when maxxing)

uncertain what E85 can achieve tho

Yeah I would prefer to be running a more optimum boost through my turbo but it wasn't possible because it was supplied with a 20psi actuator.

I'm going to be pulling it out of the 33 and putting it into the 34 when I get home. Before that though it's going to get sent to hypergear to get a lower psi actuator put in and upgrade to his most recent model of it.

Nice wide powerband by the looks of it. Thats faster than a big peak. I dont think peak power matters, its the band of revs you use from gear to gear that makes you go fast.

Radius rod brackets fitted, removed brake backing plates and fitted new air deflectors.

Bleeding brake fluid as well while im at it. Those vacuum bleeders dont work because it sucks air in through the bleed nipple thread and i know there is an air bubble behind the nipple now.

A remote controlled foot on the brake would work the best................... Invention time. :yes:

Saw the Green Beast today, it's gonna look Amazing when assembled and shiney. :yes:

Did some more Dodge touchup paint patches today, painted the inside of the front indicators with Chrome paint for extra Reflecting Brightness, Cleaned the inside windows better and applied a few more stickers, also stuck down some of the loose window seals with some black silicon.

Went for a little drive and got some Shiney SkyWagon pics.

(also, some dude in an orange ute did some circle work right in front of me.)

Today i adjusted my hand brake and checked the brake pads on the rear and while i was doing that noticed that one of the bolt in the driveshaft i missing so fixed that and checked all the other bolts at the same time

Good stuff Chris wasn't game enough to go to Sydney because if had an issue I'd be stuck.

Thanks Bryce. Yeah I have family in Tascot which is only 10 minutes from Jez's workshop. So I drove up Friday night and stayed there which was convenient for me

Did a skid in it.

Doesn't appear to be any more broken than before.

success

This is a damn fine thing. :D

What did I do to my SkyWagon today?

Drove it and admired the Shiney.

oh and got a compliment on the cleanliness.

Washer bottle fitted, new sway bar bushes going in next, old ones are out.

The front D bushes... i just put all that stuff on, only to have to take it all off again to get to it. Doh!

Window net brackets gone, much safer, but i have big gaps chopped out of my trim.

New (actually second hand) ones arent easy to find, maybe ill just fibreglass and re-cover the old ones.

Tried installing a Cusco lower triangle brace (goes from caster arm mounts to front crossmember).. in the process managed to fk a socket and round the bolt.. so will be buying a mini butane blow torch tomorrow and getting rid of those stupid bolts.

Also in the process of fixing up my dodgy cooler piping.. ahh wish I could drive my car again :( Had to put the trickle charge on the battery today.. sad sad

Adjusted the drivers door.

Passenger door is fine. Which is nice, cos i had to take off the guard to do it.

Took a chip of paint off the edge and a small scratch up top.

Oh well sht happens, im not really bothered, considering the old paintjob had about 6 chips and 3 or 4 scratches.

Might touch it up with a little brush, maybe after its buffed, dunno, it doesnt really matter. Scratch might buff out too.

New rear swaybar bushes are in, front were wrong, so im waiting for them.

New shift detent springs ready to go in, and brass bush to go on the shifter, but i sealed the top up with something real good, it doesent leak anymore..... but i cant get it off. Tme for the prybar and mallet.

Fitted some new wiper blades, going the Trico aero style ones this time around. Going to be a big improvement particularly from the passenger side one that I had was bent!

Picked up a new jump starter pack at the same time cause was 50% off today. Now I'm cooking Pete's lunches for during the week and I've convinced him to polish up the windscreen with Rainex :D

Was looking at the aero wipers today.. what's the quality like for the trico ones? I was actually looking to get some bosch ones, but can't find any in Canberra..

Yeah I went hunting for Bosch but had the same problem with finding them in Canberra. Only place I didn't check was Auto Pro but no dice at Repco, Supercheap or Auto Barn.

I'm not too fussed though, good mate of mine has 2 cars with Trico on one and Bosch on the other (same reason he couldn't find them at the time of buying the second set) and said he can't tell the difference between them.

I'll let you know what they're like next time I get caught in the rain! I have some bugs on the front bar from my last road trip but GTR is mostly clean so I didn't wanna test today!! :)

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
