Well I finally got off my ass and went down to the plex. It's better than ravenswood ever was I have to say.

First run 14.3

Second run 14.3

Third run 21.99999 ---- smoke that clutch baby yeah!

Fourth run 20.00 ------ Bang what the %$#* was that!

Vacume hose blows off thanks to me cleaning the engine bay and not putting a clamp back on the other day. DOH! At least it wasn't my turbo! I had no clamp so I thought it might just blow off again at 10psi so I put boost down to 8psi to see if the next run it would come off again. I managed a 2.1 60ft tho'.

Run No. 5 --- 13.8 / 101mph / 2.2 60ft. Wooo hooo!

Run No. 6 ---- 16 , no more for the clutch tonight time to go home.

For those interested my car has the following handicaps:

1) me driving, my own BO also affects alertness.

2) 100+kg of paper in the boot ( I took some pics of it )

3) Stock IC , ECU (I have no additional fuel management of any kind).

4) El' crapo 205s all round on stock rims.

There you go . You CAN run a 13 with a pretty stock R33, so go out and have some fun trying.:(:D

well done mate!

Cheers guys.

I hope this encourages 'our team'. I won't be down the drags again (to race) until I replace the stock clutch (poor things done 90k) and get some tyres a little wider than razor blades.

For reference, I ran a 13.802/103.68mph, 2.378 60'. Its all in the 60'. You would have rocketed if that 2.1 (60') run had of gone through.

So, gonna get a new clutch to match that flywheel? :(

Yeah I was running 10psi as opposed to 8 so the 2.1 would have got me a 'fat bastard' time. I speculate the ol dunger could have got a 13.7 maybe a 13.6 (with 1bar ) then again it didn't so we will never know.

I actually got the flywheel to go with the clutch, the clutch has been on it's way out for a while ( I carry too much in the boot all the time and try to race people on private roads ). I thought if I'm going to do the clutch I may as well do the flywheel.

who's OUR TEAM?

Skylines vs World.. or

R33's vs R32's..  :(:D

You R32 guys have GOTBOOST running 13.7s, the R33 stockie team needs some revving up so we don't fall victim to every silvia that motors past. All the other R33's on the night were running mid 14's exept Rob77 he got a flat 14 from memory.

actually the weight in the boot may of helped the car squat more giving you better traction :(

you can't forget you diff kit, and refridgerated stock coola :D

great work. good to see another R33 in the 13's

Thanks mate.

In all honesty the extra weight in the boot probably did help a bit ( I had 3/4 or so tank of fuel too), the weight didn't help the poor clutch. But, really putting extra weight in your car to go faster is a bit wrong isn't it?

The diff kit is an interesting thing too , I have only got the back half installed. Due to my renowned slackness I couldn't be jiggered putting the front section in. It sure has improved things tho' none the less with only more potential to come if I install the rest.

The refridgerated ic I only switched on for the staging on the first and second runs, after that it was pretty cold anyway so I left it off. It was off for my 13 pass.

looking forward to a meet with a decent track prep

everyone was complaining bout traction last night.

that 13.6 or better is gettin near. 13.700 104mph

with heaps of wheel spin into 2nd.

new cooler is in and looks the goods.no more boost spikes

changed wastegate line from turbo comp housing to manifold.

I'm sure you can get the time down at least 5-7 tenths with that MPH, more if you got DOT street racer tyres (should be 12s)

Cheers mate.

I still haven't got the concrete in the boot yet. How about you?

You machine should get some nice low 12's with all that new power you have, either that or a good 1/4 mile long burnout.:(

can you explain your "refridgerated" stock coola thinggo ? What the ?

-Kym.

Peltier with heatsink 'devconed' to the bottom of the stock ic.

It's pretty good at cooling between boosted runs. So much heat during boost I can't imagine its any good at improving the HP curve on a sustained run. It's quite handy during hot days like today to minimise heat soak.

WOW.. someone using PC cooling technology on car's ?

Nice work Rev.

How much did that little system cost ?

Roughly how big are the peltier's ? how are they affixed to the coola ?

This sounds like a TOP idea.... you have any pics ?

I think I covered it pretty well on the freehorsepower thread on the SDU forum.

The peltier is a highpower unit but, still only 4x4cm. Its stuck on the bottom plate with bits of metal putty.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
