well what did you expect lol, its just going to run ridiculously rich I'm surprised it even idles, the ECU isn't a magician, it expects certain things to remain constant as it it injects fuel based on airflow temp and throttle position, if you go changing the base fuel pressure then the injectors are going to be injecting far more fuel at the same duty cycle.

why did you install it? standard ones are good for 300rwkw

installed it to run thene it was gonna get tuned lol ...how dose flooding the motor damage or canmanite the oil??..it only ran for like 30seconds thene i turned it off mmmm

if you ran it for 30 secs it is probably fine but if you flood it so bad that theres literally pools of fuel in the cylinders it will drain down into the sump if you leave it overnight contaminating the oil.

400rwkw even. :)

I did lol a little bit when i read factory ECU & FPR... :(

cheers mate will be changing the oil asap ! must say there more help on here than nissansilvia ....good to have blokes that actualy kno wots going on on here!

    • Just checking, when we are talking about high temp fluid, are we all referring to DOT 5.1? I haven't had any issues with changing it every 2-3 years. 
    • Yeah that is still true AFAIK.....good brake fluid should be changed annually because it absorbs water faster which is more often than most mechanics would do it. There are cheap tools that check water% in brake fluid if you all scientific about it. I for sure would (do) run good brake fluid in anything that even casually saw the track like Murray said; avoiding the risk of "exciting" fade is worth it
    • Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.
    • Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.
    • The brakes are all stock bar some DBA slotted discs and the EBC pads and braided lines. The car has brake ducts as standard but they're kinda pointed in the general direction of the brakes rather than really getting at the heat source. I guess I should hit it with an infra red thermometer after a session and see what they're at.  100%! Its just a curiosity more than anything. As I said, high temp brake fluid was such a track day rage back in the day. From people I speak to at the track and threads on here everybody has their own take on it but I'm not gonna scoff at spending a few more bucks.    OH, a quick side question - would you use brake fluid from an opened container even if the lid has been on? Eg, if you have a bottle that you opened last time you flushed, it's been tightly closed, is it still good?
