If you need Nistune hook ups you know who to ask :)

And congrats on finding a new job, I should start looking myself. Already have had 2x weeks of unemployment, don't think I like it lol.

lol yes I know

As if I would buy all that fruit for the bottom end and head then run it on a Nistune 

I might cheap out on the turbo yet, but I won't cheap out on management. 

 

Nistune is very capable, full ethanol blending, boost by ethanol concentration. Compensation cranking fuel tables by ethanol concentration.

There's a critical issue though. 

Nobody here wants to tune it. Getting the Silvia done was a bit of a pain last time, and I can't say I was impressed with the result (which may say more for who tuned it). If I can't get good results with one locally, there's no point.

Would rather go with what my tuner likes and recommends.

You're kidding me? 

You mean I shouldn't just assume everything I read here is fact, do my own research, and come up with my own conclusions anyway? 

Because I have certainly never done that...

I'm not sure what I'll do about the backwards engine just yet, but I'm sure there's a box to fix it.

When Nissan parts don't fit too well, borrow some inferior Mitsubishi parts :)

(Mitsubishi makes those awful CAS units for the RBs, which to be honest are gaids)

ignore the red hoses for now, they were from my temporary and last minute PS cooler which somehow became a permanent fixture.

Lines all nipped up, all fluids filled in motor, bled coolant system without engine running (will bleed it again once she starts up).

Fitted inconel studs and locking nuts to manifold/turbo as well.

Looks like it's ready for fab soon!

Can you hurry up and turn the key ffs. 

Here's a shot just then, it's a bit dark.

I assume car won't dose as mad as it did with the Hypergear ATR45SAT 6+6 VL ulleh spec cast compressor, but fast is best.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
