im with rb20lagwagon, i have just been watching in the background....

perth is the only place where wolf is used so much....and its mainly because of SST and ants power beast :D

i realise wolf is still a huge upgrade and its good for the price but is there better options? why are people all over the eastern states not heading down this track?

LagWagon, You can individually trim the injectors to run richer on 5 and 6.

Fane, You obviously don't listen very hard, Wolf was huge well before Ant. But I agree is is good that both ND4SPD and GTAAH both use wolf and make over 650rwhp each:D

IMACUL8, MOTEC is good, but $8k for a decent setup, even John Munro doesn't think it was worth it;)

I'd have to say from what i have seen. Get a R32 Rb20 and then rom the sucker !!!

Cost you about the same

Wolf installed and tuned = $2k

RB20 R32 = $2000

ROM = $500

Sell old Engine = - $1000

Install bits = $500

total = $2000

You will end up with a MUCH better motor, more power, better economy etc etc etc .......

What are you really gaining by running the wolf exactly ???

If you insist on staying with the NICS, get an AFC ... cheap and done !!

8K my ass Paul ......

Paul - I strongly disagree that Wolf was huge before recent times - hell from people I talked to the early Wolfs per a piece of shit - its only since the V4 has come out that they have gained any respectablity.

IMACUL8, Price it up:D Once you have all the options you require to run at a level that ND4SPD is, it is about $8k. Wolf V4 had been out for quite a while before Ant put on in ND4SPD, and alot of Skyline owners were already choosing to use it.

Bah to aftermarket ecu's

There are so many people around the world running fast on factory ecu's and having daily drivers its not funny.

So why then do people even consider a wolf ......

Is it because factory ecu has no hand controller ?? is it about the rice ??

Yes in this guys case rom not availbe for NICS but like i said get a r32 rb20 better all round and can rom :P.

Arguing about which Engine Management is better (Autronic *cough* :P ) is a little off topic... But results speak for themselves...

I'm certainly impressed with the 1.8L Honda making 775HP @ flywheel...

Personally i would research what you need and what you can afford and what you want to do with your car and go from there... Personally i went with Autronic because it had all the features i wanted... And also if and when i get time i can finish developing the digial dash i started... :rolleyes:

Propoganda aside time

Back on subject

No matter how good your efi is ....... your hardware is a turd

for the same dollars get a 32 eccs rb20 then safc or rom tune it

the nics has too many draw backs and theres no point sending good money after bad

On Topic: MrMayhem:werd:

Off Topic: Paul, i listen quite fine thats why im asking questions....

The biggest promoter for anything in terms of mods whether it be a turbo, a set of injectors or an ecu is that fact that someone else has already got it setup.

With a test car like ND4SPD putting out huge ponies and times down the 1/4 always in the spotlight....its easy to promote the wolf because everyone goes well Ant runs it in his car....

"If ant can do it with a wolf why cant I?"

The question that i want answered is all the people that chose ecu's before ant and all the people that dont know of ND4SPD(eastern staters) why didnt they choose Wolf? and why do perth's other top cars not have wolf's? whether it be the speedworks gtr with an hks f-con or gt51r with the autronics...

Had autronics, now ask yourself why it doesn't and now runs a Wolf.

Some of the eastern state guys are starting to run them, but there are plenty of good ECU's about, just have to have the right tuner.

hhahah Paul - and now its got a Wolf, ask hoim why he swapped it. And i hear the new r32 will have a motec ..... hmmmm so ask yourself. ;->

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
