There's alot of talk of cranking over an engine without actually starting it to build up oil pressure.... noob question, but how do you do this?!

Unplug your crank angle sensor mate and crank it with the key, it will crank over but not fire, hopefully building some oil pressure....it probably wont build enough to read anything on the guage however...alot of people do this when a motor has been rebuilt and they need some sort of oil flowing through so they know the oil pump is primed.

Ok just got back from Dyno. Boost controller having trouble holding boost as it spikes to 25psi and by the end its at 19.5psi.

1st Run wheel spun its titties off so Pete had to tighten the straps more (made 279)

2nd run right up the top off the torque range it lost traction again and the graph fell away (made 323.8)

3rd run the heat had set in but still managed 323.2 and still wheel spun a touch up the top of the torque.

If i can get the boost to hold more stable who knows possible. I will post the dyno graph in the RB25 upgrade thread sometime today.

I owe all this to AD (aka180or200)who has done an absolutely brilliant job on tuning my car. Your a legend mate.

Needless to say i'm stoked with the outcome.

Loving the new found torque also

luke when ur 25 its even cheaper :)

i hate this dam weather so hot

and im still waiting for my bitch to get back so i can put her new shoes on my 360rwkw 4door build up track/drift mainly no more street car for me

P.S got back from wallaroo and caught some small snapper etc was nice there if i had my car back i would have taken it to 1/8 lots of squid snook gar tommy ruff and sharks etc.

got 50 pound braid on my snapper rod and the dam big arse snappers snapped my 50pound braid lol.

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
