Hi i recently bought a r33 s2. i owned a BT1 Vl Turbo before that, tough car though.

any way

it came with a HKS F-Con V piggie back computer,

Hi flow turbo,

3" turbo back system

afc an old on single setting +-10,

front mount and that's all i know.

i had a look round the fuel lines and fuel rail but cant see anything interesting. don't know if fuel pump/s are done.

previous owner said it used to run 16 psi

I'm still getting my head around skylines, i have a lot to learn.

i have been browsing the forums but i cant find anywhere that tunes HKS in oz.

what kind of performance am i looking at getting. the car goes good on 7 psi but

i don't wont to boost it till i get it tuned and also i have to give the car some general maintenance Filters/oil

i also recently bought a GReddy Profec B boost controller. not in car yet.

Should i buy a APEXI S-AFC SUPER AIR FUEL CURVE CONTROLLER

what other cheap mods could i do to achieve reasonable power. 200rwkw would be nice

Any help appreciated. Thanks..

BD4s is the only official HKS Power Writer on the East Coast of Australia; XSpeed is the official HKS Power Writer on the West Coast. Anyone else claiming to be able to tune these units is most likely 1) borrowing the tuner / software from the two mentioned places or 2) using illegitimate hardware / software.

To actually become a tuner for HKS is a very involved process; it's one of the many reasons why the whole HKS Pro line of products is hardly mentioned anywhere.

On that note; if anyone has an ENGLISH copy of the manual for the V Pro; PM me :/

      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.
