To be honest, ive melted plugs with the tune shaun had done at boostworx. I had alot of damage done to my bottom end once the head was taken off, i was told my car was leaning out. Car wont be going too boostworx ever again.

Hmmm never ever had trouble with Shaun's tunes on any of my cars ! Current tune is not done by him but many others have been . It's a funny thing I had a tune done on vz ssz by a workshop here in sa that so many ppl on sau rant and rave about, but even though it made good power it was detonating that bad on decel when throttle was snapped off it cost me a head gasket , and the big old dinosaur engines are there speciality

Cool, let us know how the new tune goes anyway, and if you have any back to idle problems with cams/nistune

All right looking at sun April 28th gives every one three weeks to get organised " including my self " so spread the word lets see of we can get a good turn out the best we have had in the last couple of years is 22 at a start point. soooo I see so many tissue boxses around these days lets get on it !

Might be interested in popping in to say hi - not keen on cruise - maybe just the start point or lunch depending on what is where, hopefully getting car back from 2 months off the road due to crash and an oil pressure problem - plus on the Monday I will be doing a 2500km trip up to near the NT border so I dont want any last minute issues before then.

    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
    • Well, I had an Edward Lee's special edition odo windback car/motor with a RB25DET S2 and I put down 372kW with a good amount of track abuse for 1.5 years before the ring lands decided it didn't want to stick around anymore 🥲 But probably didn't help I kept on smashing try limiter on the track and a few skid pans.
