No one really cares but i will keep adding anyway. Had another motorkhana day today where i gave it plenty of stick with an 8,200rpm rev limit and 18psi. The ambient temps were up around the 28deg C so warm day. Still in one piece. I was even shifting hard and the box survived.

Sky30 has been good enough to part with his cams. So in the new year i may just waste some more money on the old girl and put the new timing belt, water pump/idler/tensioner etc on it and get it retuned with the cams and the new Shell 100 fuel. (Decisions-decisions)

The car was only ever tuned for 17-18psi, and found out recently its getting up a little over 13:1 A/Fs when i run 21psi. So best get it tuned at that boost level if im going to continue to drive it at that boost.

don't tell me you've still using the wrecker timing belt it came with are you? :)

Ya gotta remember that 100 octane isn't available in sheppaton & philip island so getting tuned for it may be premature....

I normally fill my car so i know how much fuel is in it then drain the tank into jerry cans so i only run around the track with 10kg of fuel...why take a passenger load of fuel around when you dont need to. So when im driving it in anger i will have the fuel i need to run.

When the motor was swapped over in my car the old timing belt off my original motor was used. So that makes it 80,000kms old. I have no idea what water pump, oil pump, idler etc is on it. I know the crank / harmonic balances is shagged as it had a small hiccup with a half inch drive being left on it when driven out of the workshop. So as far as spending money on it thats something thats in the back of my mind that will one day fly apart and rip thru my bonnet...hence the whole too many unknowns and starting on the bitsa motor im putting together.

And yesterday was a bit of a high water mark, big 2nd / 3rd gear loses where i kept my foot planted resulting in popped rear tyres on the limiter...the engien took it. LOL its making this power all too easy, need to lean on it with some real boost :)

Yeh, you saw my engine bay...not too pretty. :) Just couldnt be farked with it as i know as soon as i put some effort into it the shadows from its past will come back to haunt it. I had a whole lot of silly things go wrong with my car the first few months i was in Vic...highs and lows and swings and roundabouts...you can take it easy on the track and still have a whole lot of fun. Drive like a lose nut and its an absolute ball :)

Things will be a bit quiet on the car front for a while...need to get the diff in and get back to drags...would love to get a 12.5 or so, its a reach but may be possible

Wow this is a huge thread!

I managed 205kw at 6500 rpm at my first dyno session with my RB20DET but stopped after the first run as it was running on 5 cylinders due to a spark plug failure. Hard to say what it makes on 6 cylinders at 7500 rpm but its got to be about 230+ at least.

I've run the 1/4 mile 3 times in it, and my times reflect my bad driver ability. I was still learning to launch the car with the twin plate and had some running and anti-lag issues. My best time was a 13.8 at 116.9mph when I stalled it off the line, but managed to not screw up shifting gears after that.

The car does go pretty good. With 4 people in the car and launching it on anti-lag I can smoke all 4 wheels and break 2nd gear loose on a rubber coated surface. Did this at a recent go to woah event at a local car show. Air temps on the day were about 32-34 degrees.

The engine is internally stock but I've done all the bolt on's:

Custom plenum

GT25BB400 0.64/0.7 hot/cold on a high mount, 20lb boost

440cc injectors, 50psi pressure at idle

Wolf V4 plus ecu

MSD CDI with 3 coil waste spark ignition, BCPR7ES plugs

600x300x76 intercooler

GTR gearbox

nismo gmax twin plate

remote oil cooler and filter

I suspect its going to die if i keep treating it like I do, so a strong as 30/25 is being installed inside a month.

And just because im a camera whore and love gate action, and to show the car isnt being treated with velvet gloves. Someone caught me being silly on dead tyres, which delaminated after the first spin meaning it was very taily and easy to spin up

...i never said i could drive :(

And GTST4Newbie, you certainly have some good mph.Goo dluck with it

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
