shaun was pretty happy with it being a r33 auto.

obviously the 3k high stall and trans is robbing a bit of its power potential, but all in all im happy.

its very smooth until you here the turbo start whistling.

past that its actually a bit crazy.

Very Nice, was a touch warm today also. Nice cool day and you'll see that 300rwkw. :stupid:

Turns out I have a few questions.....

The 11 power runs? Did Shaun have a fiddle?

Did you get to the bottom of the lack of top end? Suspected torque converter?

not sure i wasnt there.

i think he did two runs one after the other so heat soak and molten tyres would show up.

299.9 then 296.8

its at a constant 24 psi which shaun thinks is a good happy number on shell 98.

the afr is now in the low 11's once boost starts, to redline in a constant line, which is something that John never managed to achieve, and knock is maxing out at 18. but averaging 12.

im not sure if im still missing 50 kws or thats all it has in it with the standard nissan head gasket?

with the 3000rpm high stall it will do a 11, so for a daily driven shopping trolley i might leave it alone for a while and just enjoy it.

cheers

Charge takes only an hour or so. :(

My sister currently has the video camera but I can grab it easily.

RE: The std Nissan gasket. I have no idea.. Its doing pretty damn well. its not o-ring'd I presume?

I've seen cometics around pretty cheap ~$200-$250.

how come you took it to shaun this time and not john?

mainly to get shaun to fine tune my pfc boost ccontroller setup as he has had some really good results with them, and John thinks there crap/doesnt know how to set them up well.

also as my first visit to Boostworx i figured i should go see what all you guys rave about..

top bloke..

    • This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone
    • Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.
    • I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.
    • I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?
    • I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
