Picked it up on Friday. It still needs a fair bit of work (mainly mechanical) but thats half the fun. For the records it's a 94 R33 in Lambo yellow (Very nice paint job). Has a GTR body kit and custom white leather interier. All the black vinyl has been sprayed white and the dash surrounds are metalic silver. It also has the white glowing dials in the dash.

Mechanically it's got potential. Car was originally a non-turbo auto but has had a 95 series II RB25DET and 5 speed popped in. So far for mods it's got cat back nismo exhaust, monza blow off, larger injectors and a GTR pump. It runs like a dog and you can smell the fuel it is running so rich.

It's booked into MercMotorsports for tomorrow. Going to get a FMIC and PowerFC put in right away so it can be tuned to at least run nice. Will look at getting the dump pipe and boost control done soon after. Seeing the car was an auto I may grab a new diff too.

Does anyone know an auto elect who can calibrate speedos in Bris btw? Speedo is miles out due to the Man-auto conversion. Ohh will take some pics and post them.

Ahhhh I've seen that car around my travels on the coast... Used to have a bit "COMPLICATED" sticker on it...

Nice :D You won't blend in, in that beast...

33 speedos can be calibrated... Not entirely sure how but there are a bunch of jumpers on the circuit board for the dash once you pull it apart... Or you could just grab a manual dash cluster?

FMIC and PowerFC sounds like the right way to go... Dump and boost next... Tick :) You've got it all planned out! :D

Car is due out of the shop on Friday. The guys picked up a nice big list of other items that I needed to get done and convinced me to get most of the mods done now to save dyno time later.

I replaced alot of the pipes and belts, did full service and tune including clutch and brake fluids, The powerFC is being installed and having a custom dump made up and highflow cat connected to the nismo exhaust, FMIC is in with nice polished piping and did brake pads and had disks machined. Looks like it had 550cc injectors and does have the GTR pump so hoping I will get decent power with the stock turbo.

In saving mode now for bigger turbo and boost controller. Was going to install the in dash LCD screen and DVD player that came with the car (still in boxes) but decided on just putting a nice MP3 headunit in. WIll advertise the DVD stuff at some stage just to get rid of it.

Anyone got an idea of how many KW I should be making after all this? LOL I am just hoping that it ends up being faster than my old 180 sx.

RACQ can calibrate any speedo, they do it for a fixed fee too, ask v8skylineman, the cop who gave him a ticket refered him to RACQ to get his calibrated when jason asked him about it.

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
