Hey Ben, Congrats man thats very nice power !! RB20s still rock ! 12 years on

One suggestion though, turn boost up a little higher say 1.3 - 1.4 bar.

On mine from 1.2 to 1.4bar really starts pulling hard @ 1.4.

cant wait to put the Rb26 cams and pulleys. Gotta do the clutch first tho..

yeah i plan to get it on the dyno again next week before WSID on wed night, I might just do one power run on high boost, but i get a little scared, this is my everyday driver so i need it to run reliably :(

But like i have said before, i need to have a dyno print-out with over 300rwhp and my name on it. just so i can say i have over 300hp

what does everyone else think about running around 1.4 bar? on a stock RB20 with std headgasket? i was considering running the 1.2bar when i race, but for everyday i only run between 0.8 and 1.1bar.

MRK25T you need to let it open up, these turbos are designed to run highish boost to reach their efficiency peak @ 1.3 - 1.4 bar...  

theres a shitload of power to be had from 1.0 - 1.4 bar...

The next owner can boost it more, I couldnt afford a new engine if it blew so got it tuned acordingly. The tuner at Procar did a great job with the car, it is very smooth. Notice how straight he got the AFR.

They are a great turbo, much better than my high flowed standard turbo.

yeah the A/F ratio is awesome on yours! i need to get mine like that.

was it Paul who tuned your car? he was very helpful and knows his stuff, he showed me some stuff on a 900hp NA V8 he recently built! imagine having an NA 900hp engine!

I really need to invest in a PFC! anyone got one cheap for me? hehe

yours will pull some awesome numbers once the boost is in mark.

No, a specialist tuner came in to do my tuning at Procar.

WHo was the tuner mark? Dont be shy.

Paul from Procar will tell you. He doesnt do any joe shmoe off the street. He tunes the car only if you are sitting in the car with him the whole time and explains everything. I dont know cars, but I did a fair few units of physics in my science degree and it all made sense to me.

The car is no longer mine, sold it this afternoon.

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
