I think you'd find it ok with any of those cars as their power band is so late that you'd just have to control the car on boost.....tight lsd's would make them predictable and they'd mostly just spin the wheels through the gears and leave tough lines :) Traction would be non existant....but in real terms you wouldn't be running a "race tune" all the time. You'd have a street tune with lower boost and lower fuel usage so you didn't foul the plugs 24/7 and need to stop off at the fuel station every 20k's.

So what you are saying is these guys "can" make 1000 ponies but their street setup is more like 6 or 700, hmmm. Give me the gtr any day.

I have finally got my car going again. It was the bloody spark plugs.,Fouled up real bad.

Im glad it wasnt to serious.

good to hear...your car must be overfueling pretty bad to cause them to foul to the point of the car not even starting or attempting to start....

Yeah thats the mircotech for you. They were iridiums only 12000kms old $120 bucks. I will stick to the coppers for $20 a change better in the pocket.

lol this is a great example of why u shoudlnt run dear plugs, as they foul soo easily!

I was told the plugs they sold me were the wrong ones anyway so what ever you do dont get the BKR5EIX-11 wrong heat range and gap.

Well it is for my car.

The recommended ones are the BCPR6ES all ready comes with 0.8 gap.

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
