Holy shite! With a possible 700rwkw (we're talking within kickin' distance of the big 1000rwhp!) who cares if it's legal or not? I just wanna see it get up and boogy :P Awesome stuff Martin, bloody awesome!

Well to give you an idea Matt, we finished off a Crewman today, with some pistons, rods, small valve heads, and a rather big cam 240+ duration, running 11psi through a T Trim, on a stock 5.7l capacity, and it made 496rwkw at 6400rpm. Now factor in over double the boost (from a bigger YSi compressor), more displacement (C5R on an iron block makes 6.0l), decent fuel, much better manifold/heads, twin 4 inch exhaust etc. and you can see where I am angling from. 700rwkw isnt guaranteed, but its quite likely to be on the cards. The best part is that with the crank/rod combo I am running 8500rpm is the hardware ceiling.

Going to run reprogrammed factory management too. Give the old keyboard skills a workout it will!

About as street legal as most other cars on here you might say :sly:

6.0L, 25psi, 8500rpm, jungle juice fuel and enough air in and out to keep a diver on the ocean floor for a decade! That's worth a Big Kev - I'M EXCITED! I'm guessing Damo (Rogue8) is clued in on Tonners progress, yes? I'd love to be there when the tuning takes place.

So what sort of chassis upgrades are in the works? The torque this thing will develop would snap the stock chassis in half wouldn't it?

I have to say, I'm bloody amazed at the tuning scope of an 'edited' ECU. GM have dropped the ball in a few areas, but the ECU certainly wasn't one of them.

Street legal - my car is 100% street legal, dead stock, never had so myuch as a Gtech fitted to it :P

You would have to argue how far they really have dropped the ball Matt. One of our latest discussions over on the dark side revolves around a stock unopened engine manual VU ute (exhaust, filter, tune etc) that just ran 12.3 @ 114mph, Heathcote last Saturday. Thats getting there!

There wont be any secrets in the tuning. Will let you know if you are seriously interested. Real big horsepower cars are generally pretty manageable on the dyno. Just strap em tight, and lay in the boot. Cest la vie.

The factory computer though? Work of art. Makes ANY aftermarket system look like rubbish. Whats it do? Off the top of my head......

Wideband mixture feedback, positive pressure fuel and ignition tables (both high and low octane), programmable outputs (revs vs load vs temp), twin sensor knock retard (programmable attack and decay), long and short term fuel trims, adjustable injector scaling (able to cope with 8 x 1000cc injectors), closed loop idle speed control, twin cooling fan control, programmable traction control inputs, adjutable rev limiter (versus engine temp) for each gear, programmable shift light, decel fuel cutoff control, full auto trans pressure and shift control (should you not have a manual), 300 or so different error reporting levels, snapshot data logging, lean cruise algorithm, catalytic converter overtemp protection......and thats part of it

Best part is you can buy these computers for about $200 from spares shops :P

I agree with you Martin, GM certainly hasn’t dropped the ball from a performance perspective. My dropped the ball comment was more aimed at the piston slap and oil consumption issues that "some" owners have experienced.

12.3 @ 114 is bloody impressive from an unopened LS1. The 12.3 is obviously helped by a damn good suspension and tyre set-up, but the 114mph is amazing!

I am most certainly serious mate. I'd love to see the tuning and power runs take place.

Programmable shift light, data logging and programmable traction control, it sounds like GM had racing in mind when they sat down and started designing the system. And for the grand total of $200! Can it be made to run any engine? :D

I am most certainly serious mate. I'd love to see the tuning and power runs take place.  

me too...pick me pick me :wassup:

hehe could you please add me to your invite list as well martin?

I would love to hear the supercharger whine on this beast :thumbup:

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
