i was actualy looking at goin 600cc nismo injectors.. wolf3d (**** that afm off) and yer mods to go along with it

You need a job first warick, removing the AFM isn't always the case!

P.S who's tuning it up here!

Had a wolf before I got the power fc, wouldn't recommend it, as it was send really high coil charge time causing car to misfire constantly at high boost and fry most of the coils that why I got spitfires, also idle and cold start where really bad compared to power fc's but if you have really good tuner might be alright.

nat maybe mind your own business and no ones tuning it up here.. wouldnt let anyone up here touch it no matter wat computer i put in the car ofcourse a trip to bris will be in order by the time i get everything in so yer..

I've heard stock injectors are alright under 250 rwkw and 1 bar should be under that without cam and coils. You'd also need a Z32 air flow for more boost anyway, also might be worth looking into 2nd gtr injectors as my 555cc injectors max duty are only about 70%.

Sweet cheers. I have to buy a new turbo anyway, but can't afford to do the clutch, AFM, PFC, injectors and pump, FMIC and GT-RS all in one shot.

Does it sound silly if I get what I can afford (basically everything but the AFM, injectors and pump) and use an R33 actuator on the GT-RS to keep boost right down just to get the car on the road, even though it won't be all that special until I can afford the fuel etc upgrades? As it is at the moment I don't have a running car (other one was written off) so the fact it won't be running anywhere near potential won't bother me.

Reedy - thats because of the actuator that HKS supply with it. As I said before, I I'd like to run an R33 one on it - which is sprung to around 7psi. That way, in theory - the minimum I'd be able to run would now be 7-8psi :P

my understanding of the stock r33 turbo system is the spring is 5psi and the dual stage boost solenoid it uses opens the boost level to 7psi after 4500rpm. is this not the case? my r33 came like this and many others have too and theres an easy way to bypass that as well. with my hks evc turned off im stuck at the spring level which is 5psi

correct me if im wrong i just thought that was how it worked

The least I ever managed to get mine to was 7psi (the R33 electronic boost solenoid raised it to just under 9psi at 4500rpm). Not 100% relevant anyway, I want to know if it'd be safe like this :P

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
