Sorry been real busy...and totally buggered. didnt reply to your message either :(

should be right to do it some time this week, as for the lights. cant remember exactly which ones they are. ill find the packaging and let you know.

Just got back from getting the wifes Beetle tinted. looks good. :woot:

No worries dude, I'm on arvos this week so maybe catchup on the weekend. I've got a cold ATM so don't wanna give it to anyone else.

My sticker mistake has been fixed thanks to Troy, cuttin is back and doing one more cost and wallah. She's new!

Got my car back yesterday... Crank Angle Sensor was rooted as well so got it upgraded and new tune. Dyno attached

Mods are

R33 GTST S2

Stock motor

FMIC

Spitfires

Nismo 740cc

Walbro fuel pump

Vipec ECU

GT3076 [Low mounted & Internally Gated]

3" Exhaust with Hi-Flow Cat

4" Intake pipe

Still seems a low figure. Do you guys agree?

That looks ok IMO, how much boost are you running? May not b a huge thing but if u dif the pump did u do the regulator aswell? I know Clint did both and he runs close beside a high flow.

Still a big improvement though!

I was going to go with a highmount setup, but the costs and cons of doing it isnt worth the money nor the power you make, which isnt a hell of a lot.

There are so many more options to go than that, but thats just me :P i would probably look at going forged if you want a beastly power with the 25, now thats worth some dosh :D

Bodo, lemme know if your free sometime before sunday this weekend? ill bug ya for the gear knob, otherwise tee it up for next weekend

Running 18psi.... Think I'll look into upgrading exhaust to 3.5" and save for highmount setup

Lot more money and not better result. is that 3076 in a .82 internally gated rear housing?

Having said that its an out come of a package instead of a turbocharger alone. As a bolton option it isn't unreasonable, and rarely any one makes their desired output in the first go. Either way, the most your are likely to see on paper with current setup is roughly 280rwkws. For trouble shooting I would drop the exhaust, try a different pod filter, and a different cooler. Some of the small alterations do make a big gain.

Ultimately a proper high mount manifold and external gate definitly helps with top end power.

Sometimes northing ever goes right does it!... driving car around last day or so and seems once i get a little happy with the right foot it starts making a strange sound in boost over 4000rpm and engine light flicks on and off.... Looks like it back to the workshop it goes on Monday. Hopefully all will be fixed for powercruise on Thursday

its likely to be an occurance of high level knock. engine light doesnt come up unless knock level goes beyound 60 means danger. the sound you heard is probably detonation. i would take it straight back to the tuner for a check up.

does the engine light blink on then off?

Yep, exactly what it does.

already booked in monday. hopefully it gets fixed

Welcome to the world of detonation unfortunately. Not bad power for the mods. If you do little changes, such as a larger exhaust or a different pod filter, it can alter the tune a little. A lot of people don't realise this. There would be nothing wrong with the size of the exhaust, there are plenty of cars producing big hp on 3" systems, so I wouldn't be worried about that. If you want to change pods, i'd do it now before it goes back, or give them it so they can fit it before they retune it.

It's got a new pod in the last few weeks, they just upgraded the CAS the other day and retuned it.... Maybe it's related to that...There's a thread in forced induction where someone is experiencing knock and believes its CAS related

+1 to the exhaust. To many people think the exhaust is the answer when it isnt

Don't mind me just lurking around, I'm a North Sider not rocking a beasty Skyline yet.... but hopefully real soon just wanted to have a look and see what we got on the North Side :D

    • Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/  
    • The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.
    • As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers. 
    • Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
    • You must be fun at parties.
