blew my gearbox saturday :) (in the cefiro), now i gotta find another asap :woot:

You have to be softer on your changes young man :D

UPDATE: I still have to pull the motor out of the 32 :) so i haven't really progressed any further than last time :(

Having no wheels and no money bites the big one :)

Well an update for me, hole in one of the welsh plugs in the Apollo and it needs a hose kit. Cause i dont have the $700 they want to fix it im now officially car less and thats 4 cars in the drive now that done work :huh:

ROCK BOTTOM meh...

well i pulled my diff out to take the shim that i had put in out because it was to tight. im mate got a bit hasty putting it back to gether and started hitting things with a hammer and ended up braking a sir clip on one of the half shafts. oh thats righ i go a new clip from nissan whent to fix it and hed broken the other on to. so another day waiting for parts. dam it.

Cheers mate, pretty happy considering it only has minimal engine mods and a tired old motor! I guess she still has a little life in her yet :wave:

Mods: (RB20DET) FMIC, Bosch 040, Gizmo EBC (14.5psi), 3"Ex + Dump, Pod and an R34 Neo Turbo

dam thats good so you didnt need injectors??? im gessing the stockies would be getting pretty maxed. did dr drift tune it for you? oh nad thats a fair bit of boost i thought you could only run like 12 throught thoes neo turbos. whats it feel like toddy i wish i could go for a ride id like to know what near 200 in a 32 was like.

cheers guys... yeah, pretty happy with it! goes very well, I think it has been tuned a little more for top end as it has a bit more lag but still not too bad due to the turbo.

14psi is fine on the turbo, wouldn't go anymore but it should be fine. This one has steel wheels and holds strong!

Update for my car. I' ve finished pulling off the old intake manifold and turbo manifold and have drained al the coolant out of my block. somehow managed to get coolant down throu the valves. luck the rings were in good condition because i didn't get much fluid in the oil at all. should be all up and running by the end of the week

Well im stuck in 2mind sets at the moment with what i want to do with the 32. First thing first is to pull the motor out and strip it down to see what the damage is and go from there :ninja:

Part of me just wants to get rid of it and be done with it for a while as there will always be time for more cars/toys.

The other half wants me to rebuild it better than before, fit the parts i have and see how much potential it really has :(

205rwks with a turbo, FMIC and dump on 14psi mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm imagine what it could do with forgies, cams, cam gears and 21psi :happy:

Update for me, got a few bits to try and make me look better at the drift day next weekend :(

Hicas lockbar

D-project tie rods

D-project castor rods

D-project subframe bushes

D-project tie rod ends

D-project lower arm brace

looking forward to seeing how much difference not having HICAS makes

    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • 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.
