Hey all, I'm bored at work so I figured I'd make a little build thread to document my new 32.

Here's how it sits currently (Got new black plates though which look 1001234500101 times better)

Car was tuned by no other than DVS JEZ who managed to pull 307kws on about 18psi outta her

When I first bought the car I was a little concerned about running this sorta power on a daily but my mate I bought it off had been doing so for over half a year with no problems at all and I trust him and I trust Jez's tune.

But fuuuuuk she was a beast to drive.

So when I first picked her up the speedo didn't work due to the 25 box in it so I went ahead and ordered myself a new navara speedo drive from my parts guy at work, went and bought a little blow torch from bunnings and within the week , voila speedo!

Brought it into my workshop a few weeks after owning it and did a full service on it pretty much, tried out a 15/50 nulon fully synthetic, genuine nissan filters, gearbox and diff oil. About a month later I assumed the 25 in her would be pretty much on 100k, so apart she goes, new timing belt, tensioner and idler in, new coolant and she was swell. Should have taken more pictures.

But I blacked everything whilst it was apart

Then one day it started smoking when it came on boost, like bad.. filling the cabin suffocating smoke bad.. I checked the oil and coolant levels and the oil smelled like burnt dick so I figured I'd change it and try another oil to see if it made a difference. Sort of toned it down a little, sort of. But then I took it out for a drive that night, hit boost going up a hill in 3rd, started sounding like a harley, spat the dip stick, spat oil everywhere, game over hahaha.

So currently in the process of sourcing a new 25 to go in it as I just want a quick and easy fix cause I want it back on the road ASAP and dont have time to mess around building it and shit, I am just that stubborn.

Got a box of presents the other day, just building up the things I'll need when this I pick this new engine up.

Just got a genuine oil filter, spark plugs and a new nismo reinforced clutch brake, as mine is held in place with rivets and is bent sideways which pulls the speedo cable out of the cluster if you aren't careful, which is annoying. Looks to be a really back breaking job that I dont really look forward to.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
