Ooo, the car is looking great!

How is visibility out the back with the wing that aggressive?

Thanks, visibility isnt the best, however it was never great anyway as the rear view mirror has a tendency to vibrate in my car and tilt down all the time 😆

Side mirrors still work though, and im barely ever looking behind me!

How did/does the yelsha trigger kit work for you? Looking like I might get one. 

I haven't got around to fitting it yet, i bought a couple of different timing belt covers, new bolts etc, then i was missing a gasket. so i ordered the gasket and just haven't got around to fitting it all again.

Thanks for the reminder though, might be something i investigate this long weekend!

Haha no problem. Let me know how it goes if you get it working for you. I hope it’s straight forward

Just waiting on my timing light to be delivered then i'll be fitting the kit up. will take plenty of photos of the process as it will be a learning curve for me with the haltech settings.

in the meantime though i ordered some carbon fibre ganador style mirrors the other month. fitted them up and pretty happy with them!

Had a prang a few months ago and badly dented the Offside Front Guard, so you'll be able to see the difference in the paint!

and also some a photo's that were taken at the border battle car show in Albury back in october - some of them actually appeared in street machine february issue.

That kit is similar to the NZ Wiring Trigger kit, this is what I have for mine (your offset might be a little different as the plate, as I'm sure each manufacturer has it a little different)

I do have the filter slightly high, might drop it

You're a bloody legend! so i just basically turn off fuel, lock timing at 10 degrees, and then tweak the TDC angle until the timing light shows 10 degrees too?

instructions state a rough trigger offset of 97which im assuming is in relation to slightly different positioning of sensor?

Pretty much, once the car is running, check it again (with the engine running) :)

That's for a Link, I can't recall the reasoning, however if you take 97 and minus it from 720 you get 623 degrees :)

ah that makes sense now, thanks for explaining!

Managed to get it all installed, along with a carbon timing belt cover, made sure to use the correct spacer to ensure there is a 1.3mm gap.

having issues with it not starting now, checked the scope and there are no wave forms whatsoever. I’ve followed the pin out correctly. However I’m wondering if the pinion may be different as this is a Neo in a 32.

read up on haltech tuning tips and it says to swap ecu pins 1&5 and 2&6 around.

will have a look tomorrow arvo at where to swap these pins around in the software as I don’t want to mangle the connector trying to change them round in the loom. Anyway a couple of photos for the time being.

Looks like the connector itself on the trigger kit is pinned funny. 

Make sure you're not wired to the +12V, it should be sensor GND and back to B1 on the Elite 2500 (need to find the post I wrote years ago).

Corrected B2 to B1 at OP request

yep, looks like the wiring guide has me wiring white to Ground and black to Trigger 1 (on 34 wiring), even if i went off the 32 wiring, the sensor is still wrong isnt it? white to trigger 2, black to 12v.

I'm assuming black is ground and white needs to go to trig 1? so just a case of swapping white and black around in the plug.

I think so, I'll have a look when I'm home later.

I wrote a post on the now defunct Haltech forum detailing this, very useful they deleted it lol.

Absolutely baffles me why they deleted the forum. the facebook group can be kind of helpful, but you get too many bellend's spreading the wrong information.

Went home at lunch and swapped the white and black around and still nothing.

When i get on the laptop later today or tomorrow i'll see which pin leads to what colour wire (have a wiring specialities harness)

That should clear up any confusion hopefully.

For the NZ wiring kit (which Yelsha copied) the black wire is + and the white is -. For me (according to my wiring notes) I have the black (+) connected to pin B1 and white (-) pin B5. Hope that helps?

Thanks, yeah the yelsha just uses a cheaper (non bosch) sensor i believe. if thats the case then the way i had the wiring the first ime should be correct. definitely going to have to consult the pin locations for the ECU. otherwise we are all just guessing!

This!

 

@Duncan can you please edit my 2x previous posts to say B1 (just incase someone reads it and gets confused)

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
