Jumping camp.. i.e. moving to a toyota


Recommended Posts

i get about 300kms to a tank in my 33....but its bouncing off limiter round most corners.

the magnas are not a bad car, and look pretty good too. the only problem i do have with them is they torque steer like crazy and you sit really low in them, or the window level is really high....its hard to see out the windows....and im 6'2". but they are alot better than camrys and other mid size fwds. the toyota passenger cars are good, but unless you get a sports model, they are very grandpa-ish.

by far the all round best drive car is the Subarus....i had a 2000 Liberty RX wagon. dumped on 18s....looked phat, super nice to drive, all the creature comforts, good power, good torque, lots of room. awesome car, sometimes i wish i still had it.

cheers

200kms out of a tank!!!! thats running terribly rich, or you are bouncing off the limiter around every corner!

I was getting 400-420 out of my stock 33 gtr, and when my girlfreind drove it it would be closer to 500?

llewah gets more than 200km in his 10000000hp gtr

its not stock. very far from it.

and i drive on the freeway every day.

see andrew.

you should have let me have that car instead of you.

:D

good luck with the sale. But i certainly wouldnt get a 4cyl is200. at least get one with a stock 1j or 2j in like shane's is200. i think he as selling for 35k.

Just curious,

if you drove a high powered GTR off boost all the time, would it get the same K's as a stock GTR?

Does bigger injectors and modified cams use much more petrol if your off boost?

I manage to get 510k's out of my stockish R32 GTR the other week off 66.45litres.

hey mick, i do think i plan to keep it.

i'm just trying to set up a small business idea at the moment. and it needed a bit of funding to get a kick start. the 35k i would have been asking for it would have kicked me off very well in the right direction. but i have decided to start off small. and work my way up instead..

this being said. some of you might be interested in my wheels :) they may need to be sold i am sure the car will be happy on a set of bricks for a while. and then i wont have to worry about theft.

but mick i was after the jap spec is200 (altessa).. i have herd they are fine. and something like i was looking for with a bit of modification should be sweet.

and i have r34 n1 turbos, cams injectors, hksfconv pistons, rods etc etc..

oh true. lots of little bits need fixing at the moment.

going to rebuild the box, (std one) cv boots, oils throughout, and any other little things i can find.

haha i'm unlicenced at the moment hey. so i doubt i'll be down there with the car.

but i might pop in and say hello.

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • 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).
