Hi! I've been reading this forum for a rather long time, but never posted here. I am fom Russia and I've imported my car about a year ago. I've already pretty much sorted out the suspension, transmisson and exterior. Now I'm up for a turbo upgrade, so I would appriciate if you give me a couple of advises. So, I have an HCR32 with RB20DET and MT. Currently I have a Nismo G-Max twinplate clutch, Trust cat-back, custom front pipe, Greddy Type M FMIC, HKS SSQV fitted. And HKS 2530 + HKS outlet (used, but in great condition), S-AFC Neo and APEXI pod filter - laying in my garage. Next I'm going to buy GTR injectors + resistor, Walbro 255 l/h pump, Greddy Profec b Spec2 Boost controller and 1.2 metal head gasket (in Russia the fuel is not that great, so it's adviced to avoid detonation). Then I will have my stock ECU remapped for my specs and delivered to me from a workshop in other city (yeah, here it's not that easy to find someone who can remap even a stock ECU). Now the questions :P I've bought a SAFC to avoid the stalling, apparently, caused by BOV. So, can I install it and tune it only to solve this problem (stalling), and later when I'll have all the above stuff fitted, tune it on a dyno? Am I right, that it would be possible to fine tune the car (with a remaped ECU) with a SAFC? And please comment on my specs (maybe I need something else).

aparently the SAFC NEO that you have has an option for off throttle fueling or something which should stop the stalling caused by the bov even though it would be cheaper to put the stock one back on.

anyway.

yes it is also possible to fine tune the car that has a remapped ecu, using the SAFC NEO.

Does anyone know what's this option and how it should be changed? And about going back to stock - it came from Japan this way, so I didn't have the stock one. I tried to find it, but failed. Anyway now I have the SAFC, so for me it's cheaper to tune it and leave the BOV.

    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
    • I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
    • Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?
    • Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.
    • Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.
