    the point made of plain bearing is that if the engine is shut off instantly and the oil feed stops, there is a chance of bearing failure. theres is nothing more or less to it
  2. paulr33
    read the FAQ

    the active Lsd model is known as GTS25TML

    remove the safc completey and restore back the afm wiring correctly. then make sure you follow the self idle learn procedure correctly otherwise you may be stuck with a start-stall tune on the powerFC. the FAQ in my signature tells you how to perform the self idle correctly

    happy birthday

    For $960 you can have all these features and much more

    i like your idea but why re-invent the wheel? its been done by various vendors and are proven well working implementations. each with a good sack of tuners to suit as well.

    me too dave we could go cut sick on the weekend in some big car park if you like c'mon footage peoples

    please write up a faq then bounce back to tutorial/howto

    are you referring to the articile i wrote up sewid? i have some suggestions on securing the car; cut signal to TPS cut signal to water temp sensor cut signal to crank angle sensor cut signal to eccs pick any number of important sensor in your corresponding engine and put a kill switch where you deem necessary to break the circuit. the car wont start or run.

    perhaps some of this should be moved to a Plain/Journal/Bush Bearing Vs Ball Bearing as some of the dicussions items have nothing to do with Slide's product. I guess its a bit like building a new system server with good hardware and then installing a Pentium Pro 120mhz with 8kb cache. Kinda a bit 1980's style really but again some of the drawbacks may be acceptable for others, other may not

    mine is a really quiet fan chopping/slicing sound its not a backfire, pop, fart or bang or anything r31nismoid has heard it on my car before
  13. paulr33
    all the info you need is in gary's post, he clearly states the drawbacks offered from plain bearing turbochargers. i have seen auto cars stall before. it also come wind up as quick as a ball bearing unit, i think a graph showed a 2~ second advantage to the ball bearing unit, which is a long time or "lag lag lag" waiting if you get what i mean
  14. paulr33
    with that line disconnected you are running unlimited boost you need to rectify this is your will experience failure immediately. make sure the line is connected and take it from the same location, get a nipple fitted
  15. paulr33
    my stock turbo does you can hear it chop as it comes on boost no harm done that i can see of. i dont see pressure bouncing however when mine does it
  16. paulr33
    sure sure
  17. paulr33
    is it int gate or ext gate? does it bolt on stock manifold? does it bolt up to standard dump? does it require different oil and water lines? does it fit only in highmount mode? does the standard afm to turbo duct fit on? drawbacks; as above with lots of extra lag
  18. paulr33
    you appear to have some of it wrong, the larger turbo would need to spin faster as its has a larger compressor wheel, larger means more lag and more intertia to get it moving. i suggest a read of turbobygarrett.com under the tech 101 section and read all the areas to cover the basics of turbocharging and how compressors work it will cover any uncertain areas you may have
  19. paulr33
    im on the stock turbo still
  20. paulr33
    if you are maxing out the stock afm and want to upgrade perhaps its about time you consider a stand alone engine management ecu instead of piggybacking on the stocker. theres a world of great tunability locked into a stand alone ecu that you can't achieve with the safc. 400 load points to tune I've tuned around 90 of mine and the car feels fantastic and is good on fuel economy too
  21. paulr33
    the airflow meter maximum amount of airflow it can show the ecu. 0% is no airflow currently going through and 100% is the maximum amount of airflow the meter can show to the ECU. its a 0.00v to 5.00v scale, with 5.10v being the absolute max
  22. paulr33
    have you done a standard ecu diag? perhaps a sensor is dead and intermittently is causing a problem, takes only a few minutes
  23. paulr33
    why are you so adamt on what boost pressure to run? who cares how many psi you run, its airflow thats important work out how much power you want to make, the choose a compressor and turbo to suit
  24. paulr33
    yep im with ash, get afr's checked, make sure its safe then find out what hardware you've got you should find out what turbo what ecu what injectors what fuel pump
  25. paulr33

    Nos!

    paulr33 replied to ardie's topic in Victoria

    yeah man i got 150hp nos stock ecu, smic, exhaust, injectors everything i made over 300rwkw
