i use a external 5 bar. my ecu has the 2.5 bar sensor in it so its disabled.

problems with boost control. need to investigate further after i fix some minor issues.

just read this whole thread for the first time, pretty epic stuff Guilt Toy. .

:worship:

ever plan on coming home or going to keep Marco Polo'ing around the world proselytizing the wonders of RB engines? worthy cause if i say so myself..

hahaa.. thanks mate.

I will eventually come home and continue tuning, when I do not know.. It has been a long journey so far (2 years since i put my car and the dyno in a shipping container in sydney), soon going to the states for some real advanced ecu training with some top tuners there, and some new ecu platforms as well.

We have just started 2 new projets. Time for some R35 Skyline action! Cannot wait to get my hands inside the box's in these =)

4.2 strokers from the states, 2 x GTX30's... all will be fabricated and tuned inhouse.

Ohhhh and getting a new car tomorrow or day after... :)

here are 2 videos of a guy in the republic of georgia, he got this car knowing there was issues with the ecu / wiring. It kept burning the ecu out and no one could fix it, but he thought he could.

After wasting alot of money and not being able to fix it, this was his solution.

So... Here is a preview of the mentality of these guys. Imagine his frustration to result to this? he was soooo angry. Life far away from home.

hahaa.. thanks mate.

you lucky bastard, oh and was that the same guy who recorded you at the drags, was your boss or something wasnt it? LOL pretty hard to break it to him gently he better not branch out into cinematography :P

added u to facestalk, looking forward to seeing the carporn you surely have on there!

hahahaa, nah.. this time the camera man was a friend, a Pakistani guy who is inlove with skylines, he thinks I am the Skyline master, its funny the guys here who are into cars.. its a major laugh every day... he has a r34 thats been in the police impound for 5 months because his exhaust was too loud.

you are welcome mate, i just added you.

Yeah he got 3 months, but the car is not in his name, its in his uncles name and he is waiting for his uncle to come back from Pakistan to get it out of the impound yard.... been waiting a while now =)

    • Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.
    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
