Hi all discoverd a leak on previous tune/dyno run. Pipe leading to the idle assembly. 1.3 Bar tune at 275rwkw. Tried 1.5 Bar however needed to take too much timing out. Interestingly it tried to use the same map which ment to tune at 1.5 bar messed up the tune at 1.3Bar. This 1.5 Bar run was done taking 2deg out using the HC ign correction. Maybe with Toluene I can keep the timing and see how it goes. Can anyone shed any light on the PFC using the same map (sydneykid). Microtech for example can sence what boost is being run and use the approriate map enabling different tunes at diff boost levels. Microtech dudes correct me if I am wrong.
Greg.
I am interested. However was looking for the style with the two rear vents. However could be worth a look. Does all the standard latches etc bolt on to this style of bonett.
Has anyone had any problem with these BOV leaking. Tried setting to max hard. When on boost it sounds like it is open slightly. Maybe a leak else where. I noticed a screw hole in the side of the body. Should this be blocked?
Thanks
I have been quoted from two places that the minimum thickness for R33 GTSt front rotors is 30mm. Two other places say 28mm. Mine are 29.1mm is this still good or not. If not then DBAs I guess.
thanks
After having done a search is anyone using a thermostat with their oil cooler setup? Wondering if without one does anyone have troubles getting their motor up to operating temp especially during the colder months? Any Pros and Cons?
Thanks
Compared to a standard turbo it has a little lag however not far off the stock. Mainly feel it after gear changes. It is a great setup for driving the hills. The boost is more progressive and maintains good throttle respnse mid corner. I have been in a RB25 with form memory a TD06 20g which had a lot more lag. I love it. Its a joy to drive. Oil cooler and brakes to go and shes nearly where I want it.
Had this problem with mine as low as a 1/4 of a tank especially on the track. I believe I have fixed the problem (havent been back to the track) by moving the pickup 90deg to the left. Looking in the tank there is two sections seperated by a small rib. I think standard the pickup goes straight down and into a well to the right. Here I would get fuel surge. I moved the pickup left 90deg to the other side of the rib to the larger area of the tank. Theoretically I would have thought the smaller area would have acted like a surge tank. I tested it on the sharpest corner I could find on empty with no surge. Previously I could get it to surge every time.
Yes mine is noisy after having being worked hard. Idealy you should keep a quater tank of fuel to cover the pump for cooling.
Hope this helps. Not making any promises.
Let me know how you get on.
Here is a larger pic of the engine bay. Silicon bits are actually more blue. The exh manifold is from Tilbrooks. All valid replies on here. It only had the one tune on over 30deg day and yes I have AFR questions however it was done for safety. When cooler weather hits I will get another tune. I dont run that boost all the time however with 10% toluene 28 deg day the worst knock was 21. However seat of the pants it comes on hard with little lag and holds up to 7000rpm+. A mates car with a garett turbo making 250 at 17psi thinks it feels quicker than his. Yet to do some side by side stuff and get on the dyno at the same time. As I was lucky to get the car back for Christmas it probably could use some more dyno time particularly I want to do a run at 17psi and see where we are at. Has stock internals hope the larger injectors and Toluene for track/drag days hold it together if not rebuild time.
Here is the dyno results of a HKS 2835 ProS Internal gate. On pump fuel at 1.65 bar. As per avatar also have a Greddy Plenum, after market exh manifold, and Sard 550cc inj. PFC computer and Q45 throttle body.
Having a few problems with my A-B car a R31 Wagon. It fuel surges going around corners with less than a quater of a tank. I have checked the lines removed the pump (pic included) and cant see anything obvious. Looking in the tank where the pump sits it appears quite open. Thought there would be a surge area. Has anyone had such problems?
Thanks for any help in advance.
Its for a motorcycle.
Seriously I am having my plenum put on as we speak. I will let you know how I get around the washer bottle problem. There was talk of using a 180sx bottle mounted low in the bar somewhere.
I am in Adelaide and it would cost a fair bit to send the bars each way I would think. If not let me know or if we can negotiate a price which helps the hurt of postage it would help.
Also are you going to sell your bonnets. I belive you were looking at selling them when you had a mold.
