Oh noes! The first pass didn't go well I take it?

Maybe have a chat to some compliance shops and see if they have one you can borrow for a day or 2?

I could help you with stock cat

Thanks Sean ill be in contact soon if i need it, im unsure what im gonna do now i got a few dramas with this car passing the pits lol.

Dale yer not good news, I need to swap the engine for a stock engine with low mount twin turbos and stock ecu if possible to pass easy, i got picked on major stuff last inspection and need full mod approval.

i got picked for no engine number, engine conversion, auto to manual conversion, suspension, brakes, emmisions, turbo, etc etc pretty much the whole damn lot :)

i got a few options now, i have recently bought a low compression rb26 complete so i will build that with some forgies and chuck it in with some low mount turbos in the future, im thinking strip mine out now and hand the rego in and track it for a while and see how it goes, i wanna go back to the drags atleast before it gets a new motor and run a 10 second pass, i got a big tune booked for 3-4 weeks away to so ill be on race fuel and about 26-28psi boost (instead of 18psi). Ill see how light the stagea can get as well with everything out.

these are just a couple of ideas i am thinking of at the moment, ill see what happens in next few days

i'll swap ya mine :)

i'll swap ya mine :)

when i saw ya reply i was hoping u had an exhuast to offer....lol

i have a stock motor here i just gotta throw in some forgies and rings and bearings and its good to go, problem is i want to do a rb26/30 instead which makes things difficult really at the pits :) I had a chat to my engineer mate and he thinks if i submit the mod forms and dont list the cams and ecu and see what happens at inspection time, ill just get approval for the other crap and hope to hell i get a good bloke down at welshpool pits :(

sorry for getting ur hopes up!! i dont even have the car yet let alone a zorst!!

hmm rb30 yeah mite be hard to pass. Fill in the mod permit form for sure and dont mention the good stuff. Do you have to take it over the pits in whelshpool? My mates GTR passed down here (bunbury) with simialar mods, all we did was plumb in the gate and lift it.

    • Yucky. Things haven't gotten any better though. Now you have Emerson and Honeywell pushing these massive DCS/Scada things with proprietary hardware. They're not a PLC, they're not a computer, they're a...distibuted PLCish/DCSish monster of thing, that only they can program because they make the barriers to entry for anyone else so fricking high. And their developers are all located in the third/developing world (and India, in case anyone does not include that place in that category) and there are terrible failings of the ESl variety, of the care and common sense variety, and f**king forget about Functional Safety. Not a one of them has any idea what it means to comply with an IEC 615xx series standard.
    • All of the ECU grounds are to the chassis, the IGN grounds are to the cylinder head and i believe all the OEM body harness are left in original locations, im trying to work out if i can tell if the sensor voltage itself is losing any power to it from the very low ECU voltage. But yeah a manual pressure gauge will help in picking which path to actually chase. Also please dont bully my wiring plan i never designed it to be universally understood hopefully it still can make sense to you, im a wiring virgin.  1 thing i have just noticed the pressure sensor in question relays both pressure and temperature, the temperature reading holds nice and steady despite the low ecu voltage but the pressure reading is the one that jumps around alot so maybe it is really a pressure issue? wiring plan.xlsx
    • Gday, Due to not finding much up to date info on this topic I thought I'd make a thread to get peoples latest opinions/recommendations. Background info -  I've got a S1.5 R33 GTST as a fun project car, mainly for street use and occasional drag strip, apart from all the cosmetic things I'll be doing a full rebuild of the engine with forged internals. Since it'll be getting new cams (kelford) and springs to match I thought I might as well get new lifters and valves while I'm at it, the dash says 160k KMs but the engine seems pretty tired, compression measures about 130psi across all cylinders so I'd like to freshen everything up. This is where I'm tempted to just fork out the extra and go solid lifters while it's all apart, aiming for 400-450kw atw with a flex tune. Assuming all supporting mods (oiling, fuel and all bolt ons) with a lightly ported head and turbo to match (yet to make a decision possibly gtx3582r or similar from Hypergear) I've seen the Tomei kits with just the buckets getting around, Supertech sells most things - Supertech High Performance Cam Followers | Trusted Racing Cam Followers Questions -  Has anyone found the Hydraulic lifters to limit them at this power level? Is it usually found that you can just clean the stock lifters and find they work fine?  Does going solid lifters save any headaches/issues with hydraulic lifters in the future? Any recommendations on other things that will need to be replaced, I know I'll need to get the solid profile cams but can you use the same type of valves and springs/retainers and is it recommended to change the guides and stem seals?    Summary -  Basically looking for pros/cons and wanna know if I'll actually need the extra RPMs from solid lifters or it'll just be bragging rights to say it ReVs OvEr 8000 Cheers
    • Ha ha ha, this stuff they had was installing Toshiba PLCs that were made some time in the 1990s, and they were replacing GEM80 PLCs. To let those two talk (staged upgrade along a ~1.2km long building that was split into 4 sections), was a bunch of WinXP machines running Java gateways... There was no way to put something like ProfiSafe in... Most of the HMI machines were WinXP, with Java program, with a custom button board emulating a keyboard... About the only buttons in the operator stations that went direct to the PLCs was the eStop. There was some interesting design stuff in that place...
