bah did he have the bar :D

i dont have net at home anymore nismo girl so i could not check what yah said till today :|

Well my car went to chip Torque yesterday to get tuned.

got good results...better than sub zero did they just said to me yah engine or turbo are stuffed and left me with 197 rwhp :( even though it went in with 220 rwhp :|

Chip Torque tuned it and got great results it runs perfect now...no stalling no over fueling no pinging, perfect

They got it to 240rwhp but it pinged right on about 7k so he turned it down a little and put it back to 235 rwhp and no pinging, oil breath tank next and it will prolly fix that pingin prob.

They also put some iridian plugs (thinks that how u spell it) in it.

I am happy with that power now for the stock turbo but i did lose what feels like acceleration or it seems to spool slower..i will call em bout that today..but other than that SWEEEET.

I will be takin my car there a fair bit more now.

Sub Zero are great fabricators and for performance mods..but i think i will leave the tuning to Chip Torque.

240rwhp is pretty impressive but i would have expected more with the sub zero plenum on. my dads getting about 250rwhp @ 1bar of boost with the standard one however hes got the EMS duel sport computer which makes all the difference.

i've heard alot of good things about that sub zero plenum, the fastest GTSt in australia runs one and sub zero claim they can build anyone a 10s car for around $15 000 using the same technology.

what sort of computer r u running mark0?

i dont think much more than what i have can be expected as the stock turbo wont go that hard... once i put the new turbo on then the car will get figures it should be at...but its all money.

I have a microtech computer in mine, car is running pretty smooth now which is good.

maybe a little fine tuning needed but it is runnin heaps better than before

yeah, that plenum was designed to run big boost, the stock turbo will only go upto 1bar so ya cars got plenty of potential. I think the sub zero GTSt runs 30psi :eek:

Turbo upgrade is an expensive move, i'm looking at budgeting $5000 for the GT25 turbo upgrade on my car, but thats a big power increase.

5k

what are you getting

Turbo, Manifold, Fuel, wastegate setup what else

i am going to get a bolt on turbo with an internal wastegate they are about 2500-2700 all i need will be the oil lines for the turbo which are about 150-200 and it will be good to flow up to 400 hp...not that i will flow that yet..i want around 280-300rwhp when i do that excersise then later on down the track do some internal work and fuel setup..i will prolly have to get a bigger fuel pump with that turbo anyway but thats like 400.

GT25 turbo,

custom adapter plate to stock manifold,

custom lines for turbo,

bigger injectors,

500hp fuel pump,

300zx afm,

dyno tuning for 450hp

all for 5k :P

went for a nice crooze with belgarion tonight, checked out his new ice green r33 2 door. Its really nice, very tidy.

got grilled by the cops at asply, tried to book belgarion for having his battery in the boot :lol:

well as mick said, i have my skyline on the road.

spent most of yesterday installing the turbo timer i was given, the fact that the owner in japan decided hed leave his old one shoved up under my dash for me made things a little easier, bit of testing with the multi meter and it was all good.

it needs a good clean all over really, still got stickers and crap all over the windscreens and that "super fine coating" crap on the back windows too.

    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
    • The video for the servicing and fuel filter change can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44 One of the main jobs I wanted to do before the car officially went on the road, was to remove the awful looking blue silicone hoses. There's nothing wrong with having coloured silicone hoses, but I realise as I'm getting older I prefer monotone engine bays with a splash of colour on the engine cover(s). I cover this in a lot more detail in the Youtube video, so unfortunately there's limited photos of the process. The intercooler, upper radiator, boost vacuum and upper breather hoses were all changed to black silicone with mikalor clamps. The only blue left is a blanking cap at the back of the inlet manifold and the GReddy pulleys (which will be replaced for stock when the cambelt gets replaced) While the intercooler pipes were off I gave them a quick clean/polish too A before photo I do have a replacement air filter on its way. Fuse box covers were painted blue, they're now satin black Another job on the list while the bumper was off, is to add some mesh https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737966256_99b28bfa30_c.jpg[/img] I was hoping to use some thin wire to secure it, but it seems I've misplaced it and the wire I had was too thick to twist easily. I ended up using cable ties for the time being https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131882_c2b7989dcc_c.jpg[/img] Was pleasant to see this https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131627_8b2aab13b3_c.jpg[/img] The last thing to do was to fix the front grill and re-mesh that to match but I ran out of time The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FsF6tgizE&t=23s
