ah k cheers.

I have asked CRD for an e-manage install and tune but they did not recommend it for my car...apparently coilpacks are known the blow because of the e-manage blue, so they did not want to take on the job, or risk it - even with the coilpack resistor mod

im not sure exactly where Croyden Racing Developments are, but they have done a lot of RB engines in the past

i would try find somewhere/some place that knows RB engines, so have a look around the site

check out some of the racing guys sigs and ask them where they would recommend taking the car, like Duncan, DirtGarage, Snowman etc etc

Silverwater Rd.

Drive slowly, its very easy to miss them..

They are awseome.. but you pay for it out of the ass..

lol gnna try DRC in greenacre too.

will give CRD a go after wakefield on the 21st.

im gnna learn how to install new brake pads next week:d woot....well trial and error.

thanks for all the help guys.

pretty sure its them..

PM. them.. their on their forums..

Saw their silver 32 track GTR.. :whistling: stunning shit..

If i didnt do all the work myself and had the money, it would be Advan or DirtGarage

OH!.. Try advan!.. Its onl silverwater too.. drive slow again.. very easy to miss..

Wow Eug!!! this went so far off topic sorry man, just wanted some opinions and i got a full blown argument going over Fi vs N/a...gah, my bad.

If you want me to end this thread to put it simply, i went and got a qoute for a LS1 V8 twin turbo set up, best of both worlds...cubic inches...forced induction...i can still play around with the engine as if it was an N/a engine before the twins...i can leave it until im off p's...the only thing i have to really wait for is the news on weather i can fit it in the engine bay, if i get the go ahead, thats what im doing. :/ If the engine bay has ot be modified then obviously theres the problem of Vic Roads meddling and EPA'ing the vehicle and stating that there has been 'structural damage' therefore my car will never be roadworthy, other than that, fingers crossed!

I do appreciate everyone that stuck on the ball and helped me out, especially since Eug pretty much wrapped this story up with me quite a while ago when the thread started.

Either way FI or NA the majority of us are Nissan owners with the same passions for our vehicles, don't loose sight of that and fight within the groups, cause i think we have alot more to offer than that.

Although for me now its the morals of changing over to a GM engine, I, don't think i can look at my skyline and go thats a skyline if i do it....and well, i love my skylines, it may ruin the experience of owning one, or it could open up a whole new door to tunning in my eyes...i just don;t know yet, but either way, my goals are to own a 34 GTR before i start a family, and thats a must on my to do list, so either way if i compromise on this one for the experience than i have patience to wait for my GT-R. I think it smore of an aproval im waiting for form other members to push me in th eright direction really. :wub:

That would be a near undrivable car on the streets.

Your looking at 400+ kw of pure torque then emense power.

Its simply a coffin on wheels.

As a pure track car/occasional weekend car, absolutely. But as a daily driver your looking at a stupendus fuel bill, a ridiculous clutch, constant oversteer a silly tight diff, constant replace of semi slicks..

BUT THE NOISE!!!! ohhhhhh *drool*

Honestly.. stick to a GTR, LS1+TT R34 would be a ballistic track car.. but your shooting yourself in the foot as a daily driver.

thats my 2c

not really

in fact its really driveable on the street

if its the Gen-TT kits that he's looking at they only pump about 5-6psi into an internally stock LS1 just to make it a bit 'happier'

its as driveable and pleasurable as a normal LS1, and boost doesnt hit hard as it relatively low

if you drive any car normally the fuel bill wont be crazy, and the clutch will only really have to be a exedy HD or equivalent, and tyres, well that depends on ur right foot

ps this is all from what ive read, not what ive driven or been in :D

pps - i say if thats what you want, then go for it

^^^^ shane, dont go to DRC for tune...

take it to unigroup or Powertune..

im going to get mine done at powertune..

rb25de vct with stage 1 tomei poncams & adj cam gears with a emanage blue ecu with both injector & ignition harness..

hey dori,

thats cool man. thats for letting me know

power tune is about 15 mins from my place.

can you let me know how you go + their charge rate. how much those poncams set you back ?

Thanks!!

    • Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...  
    • Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.
    • Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...
    • They also make them with the motor mounted on the side 
    • Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
