well oil pump has been installed and running.

BUT......

i drove the car to get petrol last night, ran smooth.

drove it to tuners perfect.

waited for tuner to arrive, started it to move it onto dyno, no oil pressure.

dash gauge showing 0, red light on, defi gauge showing 0.

cracked the oil feed line off the turbo to see if it was dodgy gauges, no oil pressure.

like WTF!!!

any tips or ideas?

nice power figure. and that torque curve is awesome

btw how good is craigs work. that guy is seriously amazing the way he can just look at something, figure everything out in his head and just build something that'll fit perfect first time

to be honest we dont know..

pulled the pump back off, pulled the gears out and they were fine, cleaned the PRV and that was fine.

pulled checked the oil filter and all the oil cooler lines and they were fine

removed the oil cooler and used the standard position oil filter no change

chucked some compressed air up the oil galleries whent he sump was off and seemed to push a bit of oil out the pickup.

cleaned the sump, pickup and put it back together and its fine?? lol

Nice power :) I saw you mentioned lack of low end when you posted in the dyno results thread, Nistune don't support VCT right? Coming up with something to get around that (or just upgrading to a G4 Link/some other good aftermarket ECU) should get you bringing boost in a few hundred rpm quicker and making a good amount more torque for the same boost level if you haven't got it engaging already.

ahhhhh thats why when im comparing its different hahaha.. vct boys..

yeh im going to buy a nos rpm switch.

but also going to play around with preload settings on the wastegate once i have fitted the stiffer spring..

had a track day at mallala monday 11/4/11

engine was amazing, abit laggy but im working on that with vct.

595ss dont do any good for track so they will be ditched for some semi slicks.

the guards are gonna get molested more to fit some 245/40/18 semis

getting some rear camber arms to bring the camber to closer to 0

my r34gtt brakes wont seem to bleed properly so all day i had very soft and low pedal. any ideas?

today i started to strip the body to get ready for respray. and to fix all the dents and to get my guards flared more.

and pics of the car today

    • Um. No. Since Matt introduced the TIM it has become a lot easier to deal with the consequences of changing K for AFM and injector swaps. Then, tuning is a f**king doddle. No-one needs to know or care how many grams of air are flowing or any other bullshit. Need more fuel in a cell? Add more fuel. Need more timing in a cell. Add more timing. Need to adjust any of the other tables for warm up and so on? No harder than anything else. Sure - it's not an ECU system for starting from scratch on an arbitrary engine. But then.....it was never supposed to be, not recommended for, and almost never used that way. So.... On your engine, in particular, Nistune/Nissan OEM is about as sophisticated and difficult as banging 2 rocks together. Those ECUs are primitive and simple. There is nothing difficult there. I learnt Nistune from scratch, created new maps with extended axes, interpolated/extrapolated the original maps onto them and tuned my RB20 (basically the same ECU as your 26 ECU) all by myself, more than 20 years ago. And that was long before even TIM.
    • Set of knee pads for a R34. Will fit every model I think. Comes with everything except the rubber covers for the bolt holes. Still in great condition. You will need to drill holes to mount these or use double sided tape. I can do free shipping and will be shipping from the Netherlands with tracking.
    • Nistune needs something like an entire excel spreadsheet in which you build an abstraction layer that converts everything from real units you can actually measure into all of the various tables. The number of unexpected dependencies hiding in how the Nissan ECUs do math is a pretty impressive optimization trick for 8-bit MCUs but good god is it awful to actually work with in practice.
