Fair enough

PM me if you want, keen to know. Not saying they are dodgy, just would be nice to know in case I ever want to take my car there

Shaun knows his Microtech's, I'm sure he will get it how you want it. Freebaggin has had his Microtech for about 3-4 years now, had great success with it, with stock turbo/injector setup to now with big injectors/turbo etc. 300+rwkw out of a stock RB25, Shaun must be doing something right!

Might pay to go and have a chat with him and get his opinion, he has all the laptop stuff there for Microtech. Even pay for a quick dyno/afr run and see where your car is at, might be ok

HRthirtyone,

Head down to Boostworx, tell him its running lean blah blah, chances are he will charge you stuff all... If it takes 1hr then he will charge you 1hr dyno time. So it might end up costing $100 or so.

Dont be upset if the boostworx dyno reads a tad lower, it has a tendency to do so.:P

BUT for a simple power run you can't go past blackwood auto and dyno.. $35 is stuff all.

yea i rekon im easy to convince... ill drive past one day after work & have a chat.

I may have over reacted a tad because it would cost over 2grand just to change the setup to power Fc, and i dont exactly drive it every day anyway...

Chris32-it says in ur sig that u were @ boostworx dyno day, i was on my way down there to check it out about a month ago, when i broke my bloody clutch bracket in 5 lanes of traffic!!!!! had 3 nosey/helpful cops pull over, and about 5 pass me in the 45min i was waiting for a tow...... i was sweatin up about getting defectd but it didnt happen! you wouldnt read about it!! but yer 191.4kw there is like 215kw @ tilbrooks

Yeah, it mine makes ok power for the turbo it has. I'd like to run at tilbrooks just to see what it is on there. I'd always like more, but meh, got other things to spend my money on ATM!

If you can, drop by and see Shaun, he's a top bloke and a decent tuner too. One thing that is for sure, the ECU is only as good as the tuner, and Shaun is good. Since its not a daily driver I'd keep the Microtech, and get the tune sorted. You already have a decent ECU, why bother swapping!

If it is running that lean, I'd take it pretty easy, you can't tell if its knocking with the Microtech, so its up to your ears to hear it

Whatisname also runs a Microtech tuned by Shaun, makes around 300rwkw also

      Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.

      Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.

      Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers

      The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.
