  1. KNock sensors
  2. They only run richer because air that has been measured is being dumped. Fuel is still being pumped in for the missing air, ergo a richer mixture. No dumping of air, fuel amount is correct for air going into engine. Simple
  3. PM sent

    Wtb

    I have one here from a series 1. $60 delivered. What is the part number off yours, i can check with FAST they they are compatible.
  5. That is the correct ECU for a WC34 08/98 to 08/99 with a manual. I am currently fitting a 3 bar map sensor, so i have my ecu sitting on floor. 31 has nothing in it. 42 (next to it) is open as well, pin 24 (other side of 31) has a green wire.
  6. Doesnt it shit ya when people ask for help with a problem, fix it, then dont pass on the info that could help someone else.
  7. Gizzmo EBC and tech edge WBO down on left, ecutalk display just sitting on the dash. i love double sided tape
  8. A friend of mine is interested in these for his libero, can you send PM me your phone number so i can pass it on. Thanks
  9. 4 new speakers today, sounds a lot better
  10. HEY, i just had a thought, can the arsehole councils that are now charging photographers a fee to shoot PUBLIC landmarks able to come after these guys if they didnt pay a fee?
  11. Z32 08/90 to 08/92 manual, vg30dtt it was running the sr20??
  12. Looking through a catalogue it seems that the condenser on the R33's is the same as the Series 2 stagea. Anyone have one laying around?
  13. i have a 1/2" SIDCHROME set, they wont get int there. 1/4 or 3/8" is needed, end of story
  14. you will need a 1/4" or 3/8" socket set. 1/2" wont get there.
  15. when do you need them by? Shoot me 10 bucks for postage and ill send 6 down to ya, off an rb 20 but they shouldnt be any different... Cant believe someone closer doesnt have an old set laying around.
  16. I ran 18psi daily in mine, 230kw. That was with a GCG hi flow, GTR injectors, z32 AFM and nistune. still goes, but a truck and a roundabout put it off the road.
  17. Smaller leaves more energy for longer spark duration, but it lack and spark area. Larger gives a bigger sparking area but has a shorter duration. Like most things its a trade off, need to find a happy medium. Higher boost, especially with standard coil packs it would seem that around the .8mm gap works. The coil would start working with temp as heat makes things expand, a broken internal wire for instance doesnt touch cold, get some heat in and now it contacts.
  18. Most of you were partially correct about the reasoning behind closing up the spark gap. High combustion pressures does mean more resistance across the gap. This will obviously as stated earlier require more energy to get across the gap. From here is were most went wrong. It doesnt leave some power over for the next fire, it doesnt make the next spark build quicker. Dwell is the time the coil is turned on, and has to be long enough to reach full coil saturation. This means the the full power the coil can deliver. Obviously as engine revs go up we have less time to achieve this, so our ignition system has what we call dwell extension. At higher RPM the coil is turned on EARLIER, which means the dwell is longer (cant be turned off later as when coil is turned off it fires, this would affect timing). Most coils with dwell extension (ALL since contact points went) will always reach full coil saturation. This means that if our coil can create 50,000 volts at idle, it will do it at 7000 rpm as well. Now, larger gaps, or high resistance in the leads, HIGHER compression pressures and leaner mixtures is going to use MORE of that 50kv to get the gap to ionise, that is, become conductive, so the spark can jump the gap. We have 50kv there, but we want to use the least amount possible. The reason for this, is that whatever is NOT used to jump the gap, keeps the spark burning for a longer period of time. More ionisation voltage means LESS spark duration, or time the spark is actually there. The longer the better because the air fuel mix is moving due to turbulance, the longer the spark is there the better the fuel is ignited. im bored, having a sickie lol Questions?
