Sold Skyline and now have new toy


Recommended Posts

I sold my Skyline 1 week ago and with $30,000 grand to spend I went shopping for a new car. My original plan was to get a 4wd but I would only really use it 5% of the time. So I ended up buying a fully worked VR Commodore Clubsport converted to a VS with Hydratrack. I know it doesn't handle like my Skyline but this motor is a 366 that's 6.0 litres with 100hp NOS System Installed. The car is in Showroom Condition currently producing 235rwkw not bad for NA. The car only cost me $14000 and has $50000 spend on it in the last 6 years. I still love Skylines but I couldn't insure mine for a reasonable price. Plus I often carry 4 people. It leaves me with a lot of spending money though.

The car is getting the auto box rebuilt though with stall convertor and heavy duty clutch packs and stage 2 shift kit controlled by ECU fully adjustable. As bad as auto's can be the T700 can be turned into a beast that you can shift at your lesure. Plus take offs will be quicker for drags. At least now I have a 250km speedo instead of the silly 180 I used to have and clock all the time.

30k not high consider this I just lost 20k in 6 months. New Motor 3.0 new turbo new intercooler new Haltech E6k new exhaust New Bodykit front side rear + Wing but I knew this when I was building it. But new project already runs 11's ant half price and NA still might supercharge it and bam instant 600rwkw.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
