hey... sorry to continue this topic but i didn't want to start a new thread and wanted to attract the same people....

just wondering... does anyone noe where i could source out a wiring diagram for the NICS engine, or a 1986 200ZR????

Any info would be awesum!!!!

Fanx heaps...

does anyone know where the butterfly actuator is on the nics manifold?

can the silvertop intake manifold be bolted onto a redtop head?

no you cant use a silvertop plenum on a nics or redtop head as they are a 12 port head and the silvertop one only has 6 ports, an the butterfly rail is right next to the head, you need to remove the whole plenum to get them out

hmm all very interesting. I have a 88 cefiro. It has a silver top rb eccs. But i've heard it has a different ecu to a r32, it has a 128 bit ecu as opposed to a 256 in the r32.

The plenum and rest of the motor looks identicle to a r32, but i suspect it has a slightly smaller turbo, has it didn't quite pull as hard as a mates r32, and its rated at 150fwkw as opposed to 160 for the r32.

Anyway, what i'm keen to find out is how you guys with the early rb20 eccs, like mine, got a tune. Cause can't get a pfc, did you's replace with a wolf or microtech, or just get your ecu flash tuned?

""can the silvertop intake manifold be bolted onto a redtop head?""

Um it actually can and is a popular mod in Japan. Just because one head is a twelve porter and the other a six doesnt mean a thing. The RED top eccs has a 12 port head but only has a 6 runner inlet manifold.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
