What are you using at the moment Jeremy?

You just had a highflow installed, didn't you?

Still stock everything ATM, but I have plans for hi-flow R34 turbo and nistune...... plus this, plus that, then that and then another that.

Keen. Got harness and everything needed for it? How much you want for it?

You can keep your spark plugs :P

So you just wire that harness into the car's loom then off to the tuner? Is there wiring info on the cd?

I shall consult with my official mechanic when he gets back from the sticks and let you know.

Col, not good mate. Just make sure you look after yourself and your wife.

McFly, what ECU are you running? A Chipped 33 unit? The SAFC might not allow you to do much besides trimming some of the fueling points. They work great on stock management if you want to up the boost a little on a 'stock' setup.

McFly and Jez, Nistune is the best option in my opinion as it keeps things looking stock and gives you the same *or similar* level of tunability to that of a PFC. Being that you both have 33 setups (McFly I'm assuming you're running S1 33 ECU and loom - or is it a fiddles 31 setup?), The Nistune requires a little jiggery-pokery to work. You will need a Type 2 Nistune Board and a 32DET Ecu or a Z32 DET/DETT board that requires some internal modifications. The mods alter the firing order of the injectors and trigger for the coilpacks.

Type 2 boards with Nistune software go for $420 + GST, then you'll need to find yourself a 32 ECU which I'd allow for $100. Misso might have his laying around somewhere, so bug him. I can solder the board into it for you no worries. The software is nice to use giving you easy options for upgrades. Select the type of airflow meter you have installed and what injector size and it will trim the maps to give you a good base to start from - in a tuning sense.

As for turbos, the more understated it is for a daily street car the better. That 3076R is a nice turbo. A mate of mine had it one with a machined out T28 .63 rear housing on his twin cam 2ltr MX6. The thing laid down 425hp atw. Problem with his was that it was internally gated. Boost control became an issue. That turbo requires it to be externally gated and I think with the housing size will be a let down if you want to keep the same sort of response you have currently.

A complete bolt on kit like a GT-RS or a high flow will be the better option IMO for a street car. I would lean towards the highflow as it can be passed off as`stock and means you don't need to fiddle pipework, etc to fit.

*end book*

Yeah chipped S1 33 ECU

Yeah mine is essentially a 33 S1 engine loom, just minor fiddling to get it to mate up to the 31 main loom. Nothing that would affect the ECU.

I could find an R32 ecu (looks at ute)... but doesn't that lose the VCT or something?

So in short what you are saying is: it will be a bit laggy?

A complete bolt on kit like a GT-RS or a high flow will be the better option IMO for a street car. I would lean towards the highflow as it can be passed off as`stock and means you don't need to fiddle pipework, etc to fit.

I would rather have better response than a few moar killa wasps, so I might stick with the high flow option.

A properly good tome, that was.

If you want to keep the VCT you have to go with the z32 ecu.

Just called 'bribane turbo and tuning' or something like that, over at the gabba

To rebuild stock rb25 turbo, assuming parts are available, around $700

To steel-wheel: extra $350ish

To rebuild, high flow & steel wheel: around $2000

Poooooooop.

I didn't think they rebuilt turbos themselves. Pretty sure they source it out. GCG has a great reputation and pretty sure they do their highflows for less.

Hypergear appear to be gaining popularity with their cheap highflows, but I am not sure what their reliability is like.

      PRP RB26 cast block + head prototype running

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I thought an engine that needs more ignition timing to make power is going to result in less power due to reduced knock margin? More time for the combustion to propagate -> more time for it to heat up the rest of the mix to detonation.

      Skid pans in/around Sydney?

      By Duncan · Posted

      FWIW, the Sutton Road facility is a good one, they have a wet kidney skidpan and a dry area as well as the back track....the club hired it a few times back in the day The clover and wet pans at Eastern Creek are the only ones I still know of in Sydney, that place is always expensive but different clubs would run different prices/formats There used to be a place called HART at St Ives, not sure if that still exists. We used to hire the runway at the tafe at schofields for dry motorkhana, not sure if anyone still does that. And of course that lovely one at Oran Park that is now a housing estate....

      Skid pans in/around Sydney?

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I did a skid pan last Friday at SMSP which I totally sucked at. I'd like to get better at this but it was $350 and I probably got about 20 mins on the pan over the 4 hours I was there which is just not a great ROI.  I don't have a LSD in the car yet, that will happen before I go again. I was struggling to get the car to be consistent and I think it was the open diff. I also struggled to maintain any control at all once it did step out. More practice needed.  I found this one but it's a good 7hrs round trip for me. https://www.fifthgear.com.au/course/advanced-skidpan-training Are there any others that people have been to around Sydney?
