Hi Guys,

Dont know if this should be a thread or not, but have to brag every now and again (not like pauly who does all the time), but if you have a copy of the lastest ZOOM #63 and turn to page 81, there is a photo of the my car as I showed it for AUTO EXPO (with HKS 'rice' stickers on it) :). Since then I have been contacted by Rick Mcdowell who is the Journo for Express Publications and he is going to do a photo feature of the car for ZOOM and HPI. It will then make its way to PERTH STREET. Yeah pretty happy about it and hope to push Rick to taking Photo's at PAS of all the Skyliners that will be there and SAU members. Anyway, Thanks for letting me have my Five minutes of glory.

What parts of your car are mainly being featured in the magazine?

Good news! Well done!!

Thanks dude,

All I know is the for ZOOM it is more about the Performance side of things as they have good looking liners coming out of every hole, so the engine mods/stats and inside of the car will feature most I think, he did say that some others (overseas mags) are happy with just the look type of shots, but Rick said he to spend a couple of hours on the shoot including a couple of drive by shots, so looking forward to it and of course it is FREE :)

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.

      Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
