Yaaaaayyyyy!

Finally running, bet it felt good to hear it.

I thought this day would never come lol

I was starting to think the day would never come too :/ BUT its here and it runs...... Apart from a few little issues like a fuel leak and sticky thermostat etc its running smoothly.......

The cams are smoother than i thought which is awesome, itll suit the stealth theme :D Itll be quiet and not sound like a tractor soon once the exhaust is back on!

Well tune wont be complete today :( But the hold up has been the exhaust shop so it doesnt matter....... I know its in the best possible place!

Apparently with the half tune on E60 and low boost its already making in the 280's so hopefully good things to come tomorrow, time will tell i guess.

They reckon it sounds like a baby T51r too which is what i thought, AWESOME :woot:

E-Flex is only E70ish so i assume that means less power than if it was true E85? But at the end of the day the clutch is likely to fail over a certain KW anyway so i am sure it will be fun!

Yes Things are coming along nicely , and may I say bring on the high boost.

So, it will be finished on Monday.... Bugger.... But still, really happy with everything so far :D

The official figures at the moment are 283rwkw on only gate pressure of 1 bar so should make a nice amount of power on the full tune with another 6-7 psi and E85 :yes:

Saw your car today, looks nice. Should see well into the 300s on E85 and 20ish psi.

Thanks man! Appreciate it...

Hope yours went well? Adam will give it a tune on Monday and see how the thing goes with the quiet exhaust!!

Like Legal 90db type quiet.... It's 3inch with high flow car but had big Jasma approved mufflers which I am sure are a restriction.... It's a

Sacrifice that you gotta make on a street car though to get it legal I guess... :)

Still running on the dyno but couldnt be happier with the first result today -

320rwkw on only 15psi! I am so impressed!

So you know you wanna swap cars with me yeah?? Yours is done now, that's no fun, mine still has plenty for you to mess with :P

Seriously though man, awesome result. Hurry up with the graph, I wanna see what the curve looks like! I like the glovebox too, looks mad. Personally wouldn't like the wideband hidden away like that but I'm just jelly :laugh:

Hahaha i have been playing with cars for too long, time to actually try driving one :P

Yeah i am MORE than happy, i am kind of shocked....

Its all about the stealth theme :ph34r:

congrats Matt,

Can't wait to check this car out in person.

Thanks Mate, pretty happy with the result!

Will be happy to show you on one of the SAU_Newy meets or cruises etc

thats a wicked result! mine is going in on wednesday for tuning, (only on 98 though)

get some graphs up!

Yours will still be mental even on 98! But yeah i am REALLY happy! :woot:

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
