I have a EFR 9180. I want to max my turbo and see what she makes.

You should be able to hit 450awkw as long as the tune is spot on.

Hopefully man! I've started this project last year on the 1st December, so if I can finish it by December this year I would be a very happy man!

Do you have a build topic? 

Hi all,

Back again with more questions ?

Is this something I have to get it fixed now or? Can I get away with leaving it for now and replace it /get it fixed when the car is in running condition? 

Also ordered new transmission cross member bushings as mine weren't looking that great

UPDATE

The picture below was taken on the 9th Oct. A lot has been happening in the past week whilst I was away. Ordered all the fittings, and the fab work started. (It is starting to look like a car now!😆)

Will be uploading another progress picture later today when I go in to check it out.

Fab work is going well. 

Ordered the following parts:

-Haltech flexfuel sensor, oil pressure, fuel pressure etc sensors

-FPR2000

-Will be ordering the Frenchies baffled in tank twin pump set up this week.

UPDATE;

Ordered the Frenchies baffled twin pump fuel system kit including 2x Walbro 460 pumps.

I think we are tracking well to finish the car early December. 

What is remaining;

-Complete the engine bay (fittings, hoses, catch can set up etc)

-Plumbing is still on going

-Frenchies system to go in

-Custom 3.5inc exhaust to be made and fitted

-DYNO

Any reason you're going 3.5' exhaust and not 4'? I've just gone from a 3.5' to a 4' system on 98RON. This allowed me to run more boost (Ignition timing was close at only 18psi using -5's with the 3.5'). With the 4' exhaust and 4psi of boost added, I gained 40kw at the wheels. I'd definitely be going 4' if you're paying for a custom system anyway.

Could do 4' as well but I personally prefer the 3.5'. I think for the power I am chasing which is mid to high 400 kw's. You have a valid point tho.

In my opinion, no need to overkill.. the car will be run on E85 most of the time even tho we're going with a flex fuel set up, so we don't see the need for a 4' to chase a few extra kw's. I think it all comes down to personal preference and the power you'd like to achieve.

UPDATE:

FPR2000 is installed.

Haltech Flexfuel sensor is installed.

Catch can and the pod filter pipe will be painted gloss black this week so the engine bay should look a little more nicer.

hey mate, I know you have! you've helped me with this build as well (especially with identifying whether I had the long or short nose crank collar) appreciate the help🙏

My mechanic's welding skills are on point. Hoping to get the car before xmas so I can start on prep on the rest of the body and paint it during my xmas break!

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
