I reckon screamer and see how you go -
Engine efficiency issue?

Do you have photos of how your EWG is plumbed back into your exhaust system? Also, your goal of that power isn't far fetched. My car (many moons before the 3rd engine) ran a prototype ATR43SS2 (smaller than yours) with a 100cell cat, and EWG plumbed back after the cat and made 372kW on a Mainline roller dyno. I can't recall how much timing (might have been about 21 to 22, can check when Lenovo sends me back my laptop) but I did have about 1.65bar through it. -

Record a video and pop it on YouTube and drop the link back here. -

Sounds like you need an e-throttle, better control than the cable stuff. Brap cam, A/C, big turbo, etc. will have superior idle control, low rpm/speed maneuvering. I have brappy cams (I know I know) and I have none of the problems you've described. Sounds more tuna related than anything else. -

Take off the timing cover, are all your timing marks correct? -
@Kinkstaah And yes, the exhaust is so quiet you just hear plenty of injector noise and solid lifter noise.

Pissed off the random Raceworks fitting on my car, was fitting when the new motor went on. Not sure what happened to the original Speedflow one before the motor went bang.

Somehow I managed to snap off the coolant sensor wiring when I pulled through the loom, then at the same time managed to also snap off the coolant dash sensor plug too. To make things even more fun, I thought it would be nice to recrimp the ring terminals for the earths, to only find out the terminals I had at home were too small for a M6 bolt to go through. Anyhow, managed to fixed the lot yesterday during lunch, installed the e-throttle. Slow and steady, but we are getting there. Next is to tidy up the harness with some trusty race zip ties and then install the starter.

I second this, try use a thicker oil. I have an obnoxiously annoying KAAZ 2 way in my shit box, however I'm running a 85W140 LSD oil and it seems to make it a bit more enjoyable https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p/penrite-penrite-gear-oil---85w-140-2.5-litre/342307.html#q=Penrite%2Blsd%2B140&lang=en_AU&start=1

The future not so bright for Recaro and BBS!
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to PranK's topic in General Automotive Discussion
Recaro Japan is fine though. -
@nicr4wks I have a rear oval muffler, a mid muffler and a 100 cell 5" body catalytic converter (that barely does anything useful except helps shoot massive flames on decel). FWIW, I have Android Auto and can have a conversation with the windows up whilst driving without yelling or maxing out the audio.

Here's mine for context, 3.5" turbo back, SP Mufflers and you can hear the solid lifters over the exhaust lol. I still believe I have the quietest R33 Skyline that's over 400kW.

So I decided that I wasn't happy with how I originally wrapped the loom with fleece tape. I didn't factor in the new intake manifold/plenum so it always sat a bit funny. Yep, I decided to unwrap it and redo how the wires would branch out. Added in a light twist too, here's hoping I didn't snap any 30 year old wiring because FML if I did. Took a few more photos of the shit box too, needed it for Enthusiast Insurance as they wanted photos to justify why my agreed value was above market by a fair amount.

Never ending fuel pump drama

I blame the crimps -

Crimps are looking better, yashimash. -
I didn't expect it to be this dirty though! That I don't disagree, but it's the dirty and old pipe work it needs to travel though before reaching the tap for consumption.

Working from home, means clean filtered water, access to beer and opportunity to refresh the twin water filter in the kitchen. I keep hearing Australian tap water is clean, good dis dat. Anyhow, these filters are less than 11 months old. LHS is a 1 micron filter, RHS is a 0.5 micron, ignoring the RHS, the LHS one tells a very different story about how "clean" our tap water is.

Straight into the bin, was going to keep the brass tube and T, changed my mind, all in the bin lol.

How does the air regulator works ?
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to bigboss59400's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Unpopular opinion, rip all that junk out (AAC, IACV, TB, Cable throttle, etc.) throw it all into the recycling bin. Go DBW throttle. Superb idle control, throttle response, cruise control, and all the fun stuff like throttle blips, rev matching etc.
