Bummer, but as others have said - I'd normally have expected a phone call if there was an issue so I am guessing they are still behind schedule. Hopefully there is some progress today :)

So just got an update. Was a delay in getting some silicone joiners to complete the install so didn't make it to dyno yesterday. Not sure of new scheduled date as yet.

Tune in again next week? Haha.

Haha! Trust me it's not on purpose. Still got my fingers crossed that might see results by end of the week, but I guess depends on when it can get another dyno slot.

Anyways, will be sure to update when I hear more.

Cheers lads.

Only a minor update. Car is back together and has been fired back up without drama. Galvsport are currently looking into when they can get a spot on the dyno. No news on that as yet.

I'm guessing (desperately hoping) it will be by mid next week.

Looking likely that tune will happen on Wednesday... Going to be a loooonnng couple of days :)

Man it's going to be a long couple of days for me too.

Been waiting for these results and also waiting for transformers to come out haha

Good to hear it's moving forward

Haha, you guys are hanging out? It's been just over 6 weeks since I dropped the car off now, so really hope the rest of the work goes smoothly... and that it comes up with a decent result...

At any rate, will post up results as soon as I can. :yes:

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
