Then send its mum to town, 2bar boost.

I think the old gt3076 will need an upgrade first. Once I've got these things sorted will get it on the corn juice and send it to make a decent number. 

Made a heap of progress today and got the car running again. Nz wiring trigger kit was easy to fit and after a few trial and error with settings got it fired up, trigger scope is stable and revs cleanly. Fitted a new aeroflow fuel reg too so pressure is at 45psi base now.

Got the realdash app working with the ecu, currently just setup off the tuning port but have a CAN to USB adapter so I can display some more stuff and switch boost by CAN. 

Found a wheel bearing had packed it in so now waiting for that to arrive before back to Dyno and roady Friday atm.

Car is now registered and done some small drives, it is really loud inside the car but quiet outside. Drives very nicely and no weird noises, stereo is good with Bluetooth music and realdash app going. 

Fixed everything and went back to the Dyno. Trigger kit fixed alot of things but Intercooler is not happy after a few back to back pulls with 60-70 degrees seen and pulling boost & timing but happy with results for doing everything myself. Will go e85 after rockynats and give it 25psi and extra timing.

Rockynats is done..... 

Car went well all weekend. Did 1/8th mile racing and got hosed by a lotus as absolutely no traction. Made 260kw at the Dyno and around 100kms of street driving and cruising. Confused many people what it was.  Pretty good event for the first one, even though it rained all today will definitely enter the next one.

Decided late last week I wanted to go to japnats at QR, couldn't go all that way and not drive the event so took the 370. Had a heap of fun but the automatic isn't really up for circuit duties.

Got the sil80 out for round 2 of the local sprints, put the Nankang Ar1 back on and sorted a wheel alignment. Car went pretty well bar the cooler pipe coming off the DBW throttle body, alternator playing up when hot and getting use to it again as only been 4 years since I last raced it. Finished 6th outright and 2nd in class with a 48.64 some very quick cars & drivers out there. Missing my fixed back seat and harness like the race car.........

Plan to get a throttle body to vband/clamp thing on and mod cooler pipe, corner weight, LS alternator conversion and re-align it. Cars got plenty of power so no point going e85 yet. It's around 4 weeks until next event.

Will get the gopro and film next event as was in a rush to get ready and forgot it

In preparation for next weekends sprints bought an aeroflow dbw adapter and Intercooler clamp kit

Was going to modify my pipe but wasn't going to work and look right so made a new one and it's a lot better than the original, a mate helped me out with advice on tig settings so welds are looking better.

So with that done had to go test with a quick run up the highway. Before heading off I'd setup flat shift and boost by gear. It all works as intended and it's weird not lifting going up the gears. So will go through and setup the downshift blip too. 

Spent this afternoon going over the car with a bolt & fluid check, rebled brakes & clutch and made a camera mount for the rear pillar bar. Just need to get the advans fitted and put in fresh fuel.

Stock 25 box, use ignition retard and throttle to reduce torque and Timer once clutch is disengaged. Testing the downshift blib tomorrow. 

For an older ecu the g4+ are great. Don't know if it will help lap times yet.

How do you plan on getting down shift to work? How will the ecu know you are shifting down? I suppose you could have a logic set-up with revs over a certain amount and clutch in to expect a down shift. Be interested to hear how you go.

Easy with a sequential as the direction of lever means up or down, not the case with h pattern

Using a virtual aux with tp, clutch switch and rpm as logics.

Had a little bit of success with down shift blip. Ended up using clutch and brake switches with AP% as logics. Got it to do 10% TP blip while I get it sorted. Sounds cool coming down the gears from speed.

What's AP%?

Aux percentage? which is comprised of clutch, tps, and rpm as you said above? 

Accelerator pedal, link ecu you can create virtual auxiliary outputs using a combination of auxiliary inputs/outputs. Got to be on the brake and clutch, be less than 10% AP for it to recognise a down shift condition. The only way I could come up with to recognise downshift with out a sequential box with gear position switch. Got an RPM limit to avoid over rev too. 

Probably not worth any time out on the track but have a the ecu and time to learn the features.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
