The car is nearly there, still on track to pick up tomorrow. Super happy with how tucked the exhaust is:

It all is higher than the rails.

intercooler piping will be completed today:

Don’t worry, I will have an airbox. This will be another item that I have taken inspo from @Dose Pipe Sutututu, so will look very similar to his..

But more importantly, is that a Super Turbo in the background?

I don’t think so, but I could be very wrong!

the body lines don’t look the same to me..

wow... look very OEM+ 

Looking superb!

The airbox cover is real nice, it goes down and seals up against the pipe work too!

Thanks, though I did steel the design from you. I literally gave one of your pics from here to the fabricator…

I have noticed today that the trigger wheel is just touching the sensor, causing a not so nice noise (which made me panic). Anyway, the kit comes with shims, chucked one in and it won’t start… obviously the sensor is now spaced too far from the teeth and can’t pick up a signal for the haltech.

@Dose Pipe Sutututu and/or others with the same trigger kit, is there a setting in the haltech software to adjust the sensitivity, so I can space the sensor out?

Bring up the scope and/or just look at the trigger voltages and crank the car.

Now see what it's registering at, and adjust your trigger arming voltage table so it's a little below the voltage at crank.

I'll send some screen shots tomorrow when I'm at my desk.

Haha wouldn't say it's stealing, when other Skylines also have similar designs.

Inspired by one another

This is what you need to adjust, ideally you want the trigger arming voltage to be a touch lower than the actually voltage read at the cranking RPM.

I would setup a screen similar to this, and then cranking the car and see what you need to adjust the trigger arming voltage to be at.

Awesome, thanks!

unfortunately I have misplaced the shims between the workshop and home, so I’ll have to just go with as it is for now for the tune tomorrow. I’ll order more shims and adjust the voltages myself.

I did a final once over tonight. I pulled the injectors for an inspection, as I remember one didn’t go in so smoothly (my error). Turns out I bent the tip slightly. I’m not sure this is a major?

no biggie, as I ordered 2 spares when I purchased (I like to have a spare of most things).

Other than that, car is 100% good to go for tomorrow.

I also purchased and installed the gktech bash plate, as I’ve always hated that the underside of the engine was exposed.

Tuning went well!

Car made 420hp at 19psi at the hubs. Full boost by around 4000rpm.

IMG_1002.thumb.jpeg.a3d382073692cd826290b3eff9f29721.jpeg

Base boost pressure is a nice streetable 10psi with 3 different settings up to 20 (via keypad).

@Dose Pipe Sutututu, the tuner said he barely needed his big fan with the FPG kit, as it could hold it solid at 82deg through the power runs.

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
