Was it just a knackered turbo in the end dude? I'm still so shattered I got rid of the 180

Edit, I was the previous owner, here's a little info on the bloke who built the engine for me....

When tuning the white 180 Sam from Dr Drift said he was amazed with the clearances etc on the build, so it's a decent little performer

hey man yeah that and alot of other parts needed to be replaced on the car to make it roadworthy so i spent a fair few months slowly fixing it all up and getting parts in. hope you dont mind the pink on it looks pretty mean i think.

i love driving it to has alot of kick to it

thanks heaps for that extra info

Haha each to their own i guess mate! I did however consider painting the rims, bright green or orange would look amazing.

You should probably whack some more photos up.

Best of luck with the sale tho, i absolutely loved that car, the new owner will have a ball in it.

  • 2 weeks later...

has a brand new t28 turbo from hypergear which is made with garret internals, braided lines, new splitfire coil packs, some new gaskets and hoses around the engine bay and little bits of wireing fixed, new battery, new tires done hardly any ks, just put brand new fully adjustable mdu coilovers in (will probs come with the jic golds tho as im thinking of putting the coils in my 31), a shit load of small parts under the car like bushes and arms to pass the roadworthy also has a non hicas rear cradle in it few other parts just cant think of them

so does it have rwc/rego?

What was wrong with the JIC coils to have them replaced?

I seem to remember a car very similar to this for sale for $3k not that long ago, now I can appreciate you have spent some money on it but if it is the same car then the price rise is quite substantial to say the least.

I am in ACT and am looking for a car to have some fun in so my question is, how negotiable are you on $9k?

  • 1 month later...

fc and running s2 rx7s are gone now sorry I haven't been on here for ages

180 is now 8500 with 3 months rego and all the spare parts I have for it ( rear cradle and arms, 2 sets of stockish suspension and an almost full interior and a spare gearbox as I am replacing the clutch at the moment and needed a new bell housing)

pink was a colour that stood out and I was bored while waiting for the new turbo to arrive

thanks

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
