Ok guys, i have posted a few questions in regards to this before but need some more advice, there is a very limited knowledge of this stuff in the NT.

Firstly Car Mods

Rebuilt Motor (In Progress) RB25DET

Arias Forged Pistons

Eagle Rods

Cometic Metal Head Gasket

Tomei 256 Poncams

Tomei Cam Gear

Greddy Inlet Plenum

Garrett GT30R Turbo

Bosch 040 Fuel Pump

Nismo 555cc Injectors

Nismo Adjustable Fuel Reg

Apexi Power FC

Now we are looking for 300+rwkw

The car currently has the stock ECU etc.

(1) Will it be safe to bolt everything in once the motor goes back in, like injectors, fuel pump, power fc etc & run it around on the base map on the power FC to run in the motor for the first 1000km. The reason i ask is i have spoken to two local import mechanics up here, one said bolt on the new turbo & run in the motor on the stock computer, the other said the stock computer will shit itself with the cams.

(2) How strong is the R33 GTS-t running gear, ie gearbox, tailshaft, diff, will it handle 300+rwkw.

(3) I have seen alot of skylines with this power running multiple fuel pumps & surge tanks etc, but i have been told the 040 will be fine, is that correct.

(4) Anyone know if i have overlooked something.

with regards to running it it, it should be fine for only 1000km untuned.... you only have to bed the rings in etc but your cold start and running will probably be shyte. Should just run it in on the dyno

Will the Bosch 040 be sufficent for 300 to 320rwkw, i kind of want to do everything at once and never touch the biatch again lol :mellow:

from my experiance this method gives the best result.

100 kays of light duty reving. (traffic but not much ideling)

drop oil. and filter

500 kays of "normal driving" on low boost with shit oil.

drop oil and filter

next 500 kays of normal driving with a resonable oil of the same viscosity as what you want to run. on moderate boost. say 1 bar.

so after 1000 kays its readdy to rev and be given a hard time. dont drop the oil for 2000 kays.

after that its gonna be bedded in nicly. and not use oil or blow smoke or have heaps of blowby (depends what clearances your running)

at no time should you limmit revs to a pathetic 4k. if you do that you run the risk of scratching the bores one you rev it up.

what happens is as the rings bed in a very small lip is formed at the top and bottom of where they run.

and as you rev it the rods stretch a tiny amount. efectivly making the pistons travel further up and down.

if its only used to 4k for 1000kms and then give it a bootfull the rings will get dammaged.

so after the first 100 kms slowly bring the revs up to your max revs over a period of around 150kms. once yove eased it in to that you need to just drive it normaly and give it some moderatly loaded revving. like back to second to overtake etc etc.

for a referance our race civic motor we put it together and installed it. started it up,bled the coolant and went straight to the dyno.

after 10 mins it was hitting 9 grand without issue. doesnt use oil,no blowby and doesnt turn the oil black in 1 race lol

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?

      Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).

      So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      By tsuokun · Posted

      Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.

      Got this r31 silhouette flood car to rebuild.

      By 25RBGT · Posted

      Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
