    The Stagea bov's fart when they get old and worn, I think it is the valve plate worn where it joins the shaft, or like Michael mentioned, the diaphragm might be damaged.

    There is no material left on your clutch packs, the auto is in need of a rebuild. You can either swap a S/H box in there, or rebuild it at a trans specialist at a cost of 3 or 4k.

    You makin a washer bottle Dale?

    I have the V35 sedan wiring diagram open at the moment, what do you want to know?

    In my opinion a variable geometry turbo kit is unnecessary due to the large displacement of your engine, the VQ35 will spin up a massive turbo very early in the rev range and allow more flow than the stock motor could ever ingest. Check out the new BW range, early spool from the Ti wheel and flow like nothing else for their size. No other moving parts to fail and free flowing large split housings to lower manifold pressure and heat. Unfortunately they won't fit in the confines of the V35 engine bay.

    Bosch can't sell them due to 'contractual obligations' but they are coming out soon with stainless internal 1700cc injectors of the same design I am told. The price will come down quickly once they have a little competition.

    I have seen 500kw through a cotton panel filter in a stock GTR airbox, unless you are looking to squeeze every last kw out of your setup the stock airbox will work fine. You will need to upgrade the rubber intake though. If you lay a paper element out flat, it has over twice the surface area of a pod, or K+N panel, so any flow gains from a less restrictive filter material are lost due to the larger/less pleats.

    Whole site was rooted. But were back... for now.

    Yes, AFM is still in place. I have also had a lot of work done on the auto, extra clutches, heavy shift kit, increased line pressure and triple lock up clutches in the stall converter. I think my auto would be one of the strongest RE5ro5a's on the planet.

    I run the Greddy infometer touch, it displays all ecu parameters as well as oil pressure, oil temp and boost. I also use the analogue input for the innovate wideband. The only other gauge I have is the exhaust temp, mounted just before the turbo in the manifold. None of it goes through the fcon, as the wiring for that is complex enough. I don't even have the narrowband sensor plumbed into the exhaust, so my economy hasn't been the best. I do have the HKS pressure and intake air temp sensors plumbed in, so I can use MAP sensor tuning, but the AFM has to stay in place anyway for the auto.

    Can't you get the hacked software and get a local tuner to do it?
  12. scotty nm35
    Sounds like the AFM may have dry solder joints on the plug connection inside, or a blown cooler pipe perhaps.
  13. scotty nm35
    Yep, it should, your engine is OBD2 compliant. Any OBD2 scanner should work. The question is, will it diagnose the other 6 computers in the car, or just the engine codes.

    Nice one Erop. Now to find the other $1000us of parts to get it running.
  15. scotty nm35
    Yes, but you can't use the petrol version with ethanol obviously. The e85 pump is fine with both fuels.
  16. scotty nm35
    Sounds like the plugs might be fouled. Could be anything realistically, start with the basics, fuel, spark, timing.

    Yes Jarod, PM me about it if you like. We have done that recently and it worked quickly, other than shipping times... it isn't much work for me. He likes to check them after welding I think, just to make sure, but the last one was fine I assume Stao? I would also need the gate, Vband preferably. Do you have a local fabricator that can do the screamer?
  18. scotty nm35
    Like I spoke to Josh about on the phone, I have had raw alloy as part of my fuel pump assembly sitting in ethanol for 4 years or so without any corrosion, it's just as clean as the day it went in there. In my opinion is is fine to use the rail with the ano removed. I doubt you would get Proflow to admit it's a good idea though. Too many misconceptions relating to Methanol imo, ethanol doesn't attack alloy like that, and it also has corrosion inhibitors mixed in from the refinery afaik, just in case some water mixes in with the fuel.

    AWD will still win.

    Would you order something worth that much for me with a small deposit? I think they are the ones taking the risk, of you not paying the balance when they arrive, and getting stuck with them. It happens more times than you would think. Never dealt with them myself.
  21. scotty nm35
    Injectors are a lot cheaper than a 6boost, and you will see more gains with ethanol than upgrading the manifold.
  22. scotty nm35
    You can use bicarb soda I seem to remember, to get the anodising off. Don't hit it with sandpaper or anything.
  23. scotty nm35
    They will lose brightness over time, but seriously, how many hours a day do you use them on average? They might last years longer, and at the price of OEM burners I would keep the old ones a little longer.
  24. scotty nm35
    That's what I was led to believe, so 33 pistons in a 34 neo would raise the compression by a substantial amount I would guess... *Goes to Google image search.

    If it's sound you want, an alloy intake and pod will have your ears bleeding on boost, louder than the exhaust.
