I'm up for a cruise, be nice if the rain would stay away!

I've installed my catch can, braided lines & anodised fittings, & finally transfered over to SA rego' with personal plates ;)

Transfer was fun NOT! but the only thing they knocked me back for was the MOMO! WTF!?!? I didn't argue though, it could've been a lot worse :) A quick swap back to the stockie & I was done ;) Then the c/can was then fitted :lol:

Joel,

Did you get a FMIC before & after dyno?

No I didn't Matt Unfortunately.

I know before on 12.5psi it made 152rwkw with a std intake & filter 3" full exhaust & fuel pressure bleed kit.

When I had the after dyno a quick check a boost up to 14psi she made only 153.8rwkw.

The fuel ratio was around 11:1 and I saw black smokes coming out the exhaust on occasions.

There was however a heap more in the mid range, boost seemed to come on a little slower also.

For some reason it was really flattening out up top. ?

BUT...

I got home wasn't really that happy honestly so I started to fiddle removed the origional cold air intake and plumbed a ~5" duct to the origional intake in the box, I also removed the AFM mesh.

I know the removal of the mesh & cold air intake made boost come on 300rpm earlier. I did the test on Flagstaff Hill in fifth gear from 2000rpm with a flat foot before & after in the same spot.

Drivability has improved heaps and up top is heaps better now.

For example 60kays in second with no throttle, i flatten it with the 225'50 F1's with 28psi in the tyres and it starts to spin the rears then it begins gripping after a second or two.

First gear is horrid like basically it will lite up with just a little more than 1/4 throttle.

I've only done it a couple of times but with a couple of v8 commo's i've clicked in to second a little to quick and it can spin for like 4 seconds in a straight line.

it is quite fun to drive now but I need to take it easy.

I will do a dyno run before I fit the VG30BB Turbo and boost that to 1 bar..

Oh yer..

I will have to meet up with Bugalugs again and see how he goes with the 255's.. ;)

Hello 190rwkw I hope...

Hrmmm that sounds like i've been thrashing the car..

I havn't but.... well ermmmm maybe a couple of times but only to see what she can do. :)

I can't wait for the up top performance of the VG30 terbs..

I can see what ppls mean how the std turbo's run out of puff.

Sounds good mate ;)

@ the 215+rwkw mark I removed my AFM screens & it didn't do a damn thing! I was way out of the AFM voltage range by that stage anyway.

You'll really start to see the benefit of the FMIC once the VG30 is fitted @ tuned.

It'd well worth getting your ECU re-tuned by Tilbrooks straight after the VG30 is installed (~$500 I think?) You'll really unlock the extra grunt then! Unfortunately Tim doesn't do stock ECU re-tuning so Tilbrook is your man.

With decent grip you'd give 'Bugs a good look @ your tail lights ;) With the VG30 & a re-tune you'd probably give me a good look too! Unless we do a 3rd gear rolling run :uh-huh: :)

I need some 265 FM901's, with the Falkens I get w/spin all through 2nd.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.

      Looking for someone with a R34 front bar

      Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
