S14 With Neo Rb25 Drift Car.

[Simon-S14]

yes tubs are actually going to be available as a kit!

[jamie curran]

^^ just for s14's? or like a universal kit?

[NYTSKY]

looking good simon, and wow that is lots of hacking. i like it.

are you in contact with cazman atm by any chance? need those R32 rear camber arms and toe rods but he's not replying :S

Hehe we were drifting together on GT5 yesterday.

[Simon-S14]

^^ just for s14's? or like a universal kit?

more or less a universal kit... tho to suit an r32 there may be some extra trimming involved.

heres some more progress pics... i pick it up this arvo and then its off to Garage 7 where we will wire the bitch up

[Simon-S14]

updates! first the pics.

[Simon-S14]

and now for a little sad news... Pulled the engine apart after all the drama;s i had with it boiling and running hot at G1... looks like its got seriously hot which it did as logged from coolant temps getting up to 135 degrees in a flash from 100;..Anyway head off and its melted plugs 1 and 6. Cyln 6 piston crown has melted and the ring land cracked due to the alloy changing properties. number 1 also got a bit hot but not as bad.

few other bits and pieces but yeah... needs repairs and a cooling system that works.

before people bag the tune.. its not tune related. running same tune for last 12 months of endless thrashing... it was the boiling coolant and high chamber temps that causes pre ignition

135 is super hot : (

can you put a coolant temp/intake temp ignition trim table in the ecu? get it to just flood it with fuel down to 9:1 as well if it ever gets that hot again?

call race radiators in vic. they suplied the radiator in our targa car and in a 600kw circuit 32. they can make them any shape and size but the important thing is that they make them cross flow as that makes a huge difference.

i think im right in saying that this wouldnt have been possible running a re tuned rom. with the haltec this should be easy.

[Simon-S14]

nistune does have temp protection in the form of rich and retard.

but it all happened so quick :S

[dori34]

digging what you done to the dash!

cant wait to see this up and running for this year.

Yeah you have to set the coolant temp tables up more aggressively though, so that if it gets over 105c it just pulls all ignition and dumps 100% fuel. Do you know if they had been touched at all?

[Simon-S14]

yeah but evidently not enough.. something the haltech should have a lot more control over.

got some other cool things happening// getting some carbon parts made up. Bought an RB26 head. got new pistons and rings on the way... motor should go back together soon

[robots]

You should try NEO head + RB26 ITBs. VCT+ITBS+maybe 3l=way too happy

[sav man]

I thought the neo head was better than a 26 head

[Simon-S14]

neo head isnt bad but has shitty shim over bucket rather then rb26 shim under bucket. besides i'd need an adaptor for the ITB's.

[robots]

Simon, you got fabrication skills at your disosal. No need for adapter flange. Cut/shut/weld.

Port/olish where needed. Just do it !)))

[Simon-S14]

nope 26 head is where its at

[dori34]

do u need a head simon?

got one in syd,

no covers but has plenum and tbs/cams/springs/valves etc.

[Simon-S14]

What did you want for it man. Pm me if need be
