to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it

Took it for a drive to do some logs, I’m pretty sure my voltage issues and electrical noise issues are gone, I’ve sent a log to Adam and am waiting to hear back with confirmation

Can I be your first customer?

I would like hard lines done for the fuel system, 8AN up and 8AN back and the underside wire wheeled and coated (brush or sprayed) with that black tar shit.

What alt kit is the 180amp one? FPG?

that’s the one there, I couldn’t use any of the ls1 based one due to the oil pump

Decided we would get it tuned before gtr fest, due to some delays with other cars mine went on the dyno at about 6pm Friday night.

98 tune done we start flexing 10% 20% 30% all the way to 80 and then it’s time to give it hell aaaannnnd miss on number 4 😔 change plugs, still there, check coils, still there, decide to swap injectors to see if it moves, rev clean!! Try again, revs clean?? 

I made the call to pull the pin anyway because if it decides to play up with 35-40psi of boost in it and 7,000rpm, it will torch a cylinder before you’d even realize it had done it and I’m not risking it for a $200 injector. So new set ordered 

we did make the car drivable so I could take it to gtr fest. Finally got to drive it on e85 (slowly) its even better then it was! It’s so responsive, with under half throttle it cracking gate around 3,300 but mind you it is only 10-12psi at the moment

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
