Picked up a white '97 GTS25t on Monday in Melbourne, got home and spent most of yesterday giving it a good clean (was in pretty dirty condition) needs another polish and to fix a couple of minor body blemishes.

Just sorting a few mods and will post some pics.

Only a couple of pics from tonight as the battery went flat and I'd had enough in the end... the new BMS R33 that will be used for some R&D and daily transport - for now it has bolt on FMIC kit, Apexi N1 exhaust, K&N pod, R34 GTR rims and a few other things with more under development. My wife is thinking of giving it a run at the Baskerville Hillclimb in Aug, if not her I certainly will as the RX7 is far from finished with the engine still needing to come out...

hiuhih the SX4 is getting an exhaust, the cold air intake is being made and the ecu is on order, i knw it, 3 weeks on and i already want more power.

Saw the odl girl in a sory state last night at the dealer, dam it they arn't looking after it very well.

very tidy skyline there T01

Yeah its still go a ways to go before I'm happy, but nice for sure. Although I think it would go well with the rims I'm not sure if a CF bonnet be look a bit much?

Well I don't post much on here but I thought I would cause I'm bored lol.....

Some of you may know of my Cressida . Anyhow I have been royaly stuffed around with a few parts causing me to rethink the whole project. I am now going to remove the 1jz in favour of a 2jz with a gt35r turbo - can't wait :thumbsup: . If you wanna know what business's not to deal with, shoot me a PM as there is a pretty big list of some well known companies.

In the meantime, so I can get out on the track, I have bought

r31 to piss fart around in :P Don't expect me to scando the straight though lol - Small steps baby haha

Cheers Dan.

P.S. Does anyone know how to get my user name changed to Drifterdan like it is on the other forums?

Wicked 33 Stu!

I LOVE the rims!

Jealous much? :P

Yeah it presents well hey... although its keeping me from spending on the RX7 the 33 is coping some more upgrades including Splitfires, new seats and some Nismo tidy up stuff.

I reckon 34 rims on your blue 33 would look pretty awesome.

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • 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.
