Bob would you like to explain what's been done here?

Thanks

JEM

Not sure if anyone has noticed the exhaust port, the bump has not been cut out, I know everyone out there has cut this out but john has not cut it out?? let see who can tell me why??

I honestly have no idea, but ill take a stab at it causes turbulence which helps bind the pulse together, so ultimately it will hit the turbine wheel more effectively.

Well the correct answer is, there is a water gallery right behind it if you cut it out your wall thinkness is reduced to <1.5mm think, this was found when we got a rb26 head and John started to cut sections out of it, he has checked the whole head where he could gain more performance from it and at the same time keep away from any thining walls.

You can see it in the below pic

Shift light

M800 - Will run all the factory sensors plus run twin Nismo AFM no Map for tunning. Control diff, trans, and front diff cooling pumps, Dual lambda, custom wiring for 12 injectors all running sequential ,speed controlled Fuel Pump, fuel pressure sensor, fuel temp sensor. E85 analyser for ethanol content (zeitronix sensor), water methanol injection

E888- Will be used for 8 k type thermocouples installed in the manifold runner and exhaust, 4 pressure sensor exit of compressor housing to the plenum. 4 air temp sensors exit of compressor housing to plenum. Compressor wheel RPM,Diff temp,trans temp.

Ignition Expander - this will control the sequential IGN as the output on the M800 are used for the other set of injectors.

Shift light - This has three different colour on each light that can be configured for warnings and shift lights

Motec would have to be one of the best ECU system for a car as you can make it do what ever you want it to. Yes it is expensive however if you want to do it properly then this is the product.

I was very happy that Just Engine Management is a dealer for Motec and Adam at Jem advised what the car needed, i guess this is just the beginning as i am sure i need alot more Motec equipment to complete the car.

The wastegate collector has been slow as John has been busy making the die.

See below Vid

He is making this die so he can beat the pipe into this shape for each of the two wastegates entering the dump to form a venturi. I know this is getting out of control however i guess, him making these things is all a challenge to him also.

bobby, with motec it doest stop haha by the time i finished with my car it was well into the 30s!! wiring, slm, dash, 1 million sensors it gets up there fairly quickly!!

Yes i know i was just told today i have to use some special wire "tefzel" for all the sensors with raychem.

Also i dont see anyother ECU out there that can do what i need it to do.

Awesome build dude keep us posted !

I know of a good ECU "Apexi power fc" does the job for me lol

loving the thread mate. great stuff. I would love to come and talk with john about his ideas one day. he is a fantastic craftsman that's for sure.

I run a motec in my 32 too, not nearly as comprehensive as yours though! but it does run very nicely.

I'll echo some previous thoughts on using an EFR turbo. I have a lot to do with both borg warner and full race at the moment and would be happy to make an introduction? I'm sure they could supply the info john needs to make an informed decision about their product. pm me if interested.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
