Another R32 Money Pit

This is an Unbelievable amount of power from a stock bottom end 25' !

Out of curiosity have you had the engine compression tested before you pushed some serious power through it, and currently?

Keen to see how the stock rings are holding up with that much boost

Awesome awesome build buddy congrats

You need to buy these....over in Vic generally accepted as some of the better off the shelf shocks. Russ's car with similar power to you hooks up just fine.

Tempting!

Spring rates are probably a bit high for me as it is essentially a street car. He has a lot more tyre than me as well haha

I've been doing some research into the length of traction rods and I think the way mine has been set up I may be getting toe out under acceleration (corner exits) which wouldn't be helping

Had a massive WTF issue last night...

Replaced the 044 with the new Walbro E85 416l/hr pump and all went in fairly well. Went to test the thing and no dice, didn't prime. Turned the car off and it started priming and kept running, turned the key back on and the pump stopped, key back to off and the pump started again.

Was late and I was high on E85 fumes so I gave up but still can't work out WTF I have done, none of the wiring or terminals on the relay changed. Literally just pulled old pump out and installed new one.

its probably a vipec issue. i know of a bloke having similar issues with his vipec recently.

hopefully you will sort it out easily thoe.

[SimonR32]

Fuel pump issue fixed on the weekend, was a issue with the earth not being strong enough not the Vipec. All good now, those new walbro's love the current!

Got bored as well so ended up installing a Motec shift light

[SimonR32]

New flat floor for the front of the car arrived.

Hey Simon, How much boost are you running? been wondering how much boost a stock 25 can handle whilst being semi reliable...

[SimonR32]

1.7 bar on high boost for drags, powercruise etc and around 1.5 bar when I'm at the track doing time attack

[SiR_RB]

hows the new walbro e85 fuel pump going so far?

looking at upgrading mine to either the 400lph or 450lph e85 model soon for future e85 adventures

[SimonR32]

Still have not had the car tuned with the pump

Nice GTR! Is that your engine on the stand?

[SimonR32]

The GTR's motor :-)

[DCIEVE]

Tease!

[SimonR32]

Tease!

I didn't say the GTR wasn't mine haha

[roarpwr]

So is the GTR the new car hey? When i saw Rob at JPC last week he mentioned you bought a new car.... Whats the plan for the GTR?

[SimonR32]

Same as the green thing really, a good allrounder just with 4wd and a bit more power!

It's got some cool fruit already including a full T88 kit but I'm going to downgrade the turbo to something more suitable
