just had an SAFC installed and tuned on my R32, made 271.6hp

my question is... what next? are there any bolt ons available to give me more power or have i reached the end of the road?

so far;

t04e turbo

front mount

bosch 910 fuel pump

all the other crap like exhaust, filter

blitz ECU + SAFC

thanks everyone!

Thats excellent news :D

Adjustable cam gears are a bolt on mod. You'll find maybe 15 - 20 hp from tuning cam timing. Nengun has light weight HKS ones for ~$185 each. RB20 can use 2, one for intake and one for exhaust cams. It'll need tuning on the dyno to setup but the s-afc won't need to be retuned.

If you're on a budget, the exhaust adj cam gear alone would provide most of the power increase (probably 3/4 worth).

For R33 RB25 ppl, only the exhaust adj cam gear can be installed cause inlet cam gear is integrated with VCT.

yeh i think ill go down this wednesday (30th) if not then in the near future. with 110rwhp more i think i can better the 14.6 of last time :burnout:

yeh adjustable cam gears i think will be the next.

anyone one which injectors will fit the std fuel rail?

im currently running a bleeder, would an EBC be worthwhile for holding boost above 1bar? (im running a HKS external gate)

wikid!

somehow I reckon you'll deinately be getting a better time than 14.6 hahaha :uh-huh:

what clutch do you have? that'd be a good thing to change, or else timing/cams/nos(:))

and if you're restricted by your management system, why don't you upgrade that?

:D

make sure you're there this wed!! I want some good videos :burnout:

tuning and fitting cost $150, the SAFC cost $150 (the older series one)

power went from 226 to 271 so 45rwhp. off boost its no different raly, the fuel curve is fine but on boost its been leaned out a little so goes alot harder there.

the problem is ive got a blitz ECU, HKS PFC which cannot be unplugged because no-one nows the wiring and its running off a MAP sensor which may screw things up. on top of that ive got an SAFC, so 3 computers:P

yeh i got ya pms ive just been too lazy to reply! :D  ill do it now...

Would it cost the same to tune the blue screen model SAFC as the one you've got do you think?

OK so for my R33 you would advise not to get a new cam gear for the inlet. So does this mean i should just by one cam gear for the exhaust? so at $185 each then how much for installation and tuning? this could be one of the cheapest and best mods yet if it gives 15 - 20 rwhp...

is there any set backs with light weight cam gears... pros and cons??

Yeah, 1 cam gear for exhaust. It may be possible to modify the orginal intake gear to make it adjustable but I haven't heard of anyone doing this first hand. I couldn't see install and tuning taking more than an hour on the dyno.

Don't quote me on the HP gain. Basically, go in expecting drivability gains (lower spool up time) and be happy for any HP increase. Your milage may vary :-) Not aware of any cons, pro of lightweight gear is less reciprocating mass on the head -> less engery lost in turning cams.

      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.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
