Damn thats a bummer, you know Id fully help you search for TK parts if you went on the path to get it back to original...

the world is full of huge power skylines, but not many original TKs with all performance mods done...

you wont be able to call it a TK anymore, pull that decal and badge off...

I see what you're doing.

LOL so do I.. Its got me thinking. But I can't leave that ugly gay cross over pipe, small turbo and intercooler. Just can't.

I just want it to put the wrath of god into me and anyone in the car when it comes on boost. That feeling of your eyeballs being sucked to the back of your head while being pinned.

I want it to make me scream fast n furious when I change gears 8 times lol..

Im glad we got that sorted.

Now please continue with your story of upgrades to your series 1 r33 (with mish mash of left over parts from what could of been a unique r33 but isnt since its missing most of, and will be missing a heap more in the future of, its 'rare' and 'unique' parts, which could of been called a tommy kaira but is now sadly just a wanka-thon to make it sound so much better than every other r33 series 1) that a heap of people on these forums have already been there and done that to their own...

I am honestly still keen to hear what you want to do and reading it happen and seeing the awesome pics of the process, and Im sure it will be nicely done and and done your way, and there is nothing wrong with that...

but please come down to earth, your doing what alot of people have done before its not rare, unique or different, its another build process, and yes it may be great even the one done perhaps the best, but I reckon alot of people have started just like your starting now, with a very similar car.

I reckon do a build thread too, with heaps of pictures, I love seeing pictures of decent builds, and I love shiny parts and loud obnxious cars that scare when driven...

btw most people say the series 2 looks better, just sayin...

Found this that for some reason didnt upload with the others.

The build itself is not rare unique and different, but the car itself is. Thats what im saying. If it wasnt the car that it is, I wouldnt have a skyline or have grown to like them. The car is what it is whichever way you look at it, and thats a TK, reguardless of the larger bolt on parts.

As I said when I have more parts, more pics and theres a fair amount of progress happening with the car I'll start a build thread.

Exactly, no reason to keep matching numbers when every other original bit is gone too.

and back to my previous statement, its a series 1 with a bodykit, an ugly one at that.

u can continue build process of your series 1 now...

75coupe, just as I started to think you were somewhat decent, I won’t insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said but thank you, I'm challenged by your "unique" point of view. You have an open mind and a mouth to match.

As for Rolls, don't let your mind wander, its far too little to be let out on its own. Thinking really isn't your strong point, is it? Why don't you freeze your teeth and give your tongue a sleigh ride.

Theres only so many times you can go around in circles and go over the same thing.

Now that your both finished having delusions of competence, feel free to not comment in this thread and let me enjoy and build my ugly series 1.

So may I have the pleasure of you both absence?

Thanks.

Correct me if im wrong, but with a stroker, because the rod/piston's dont actually have to travel as far, then there is less force/momentum being created.. Therefore you can actually rev higher.

pistons travel further in a stroker, hence longer stroke.. from bottom to top dead centre

Are the rods not shorter in a stroker engine?

Nevermind me, just did some reading up on the subject. Funny, I never really put much thought towards how crank throw affects displacement. Oops :D

OP, hows the car coming along? Did you settle on turbo choice yet?

    • That's awesome, well done! Love all these older Datsun / Nissans so rare now
    • As I said, there's trade offs to jamming EVERYTHING in. Timing, resources etc, being the huge ones. Calling out the factory ECU has nothing to do with it, as it doesn't do any form of fancy boost control. It's all open loop boost control. You mention the Haltech Nexus, that's effectively two separate devices jammed into one box. What you quote about it, is proof for that. So now you've lost flexibility as a product too...   A product designed to do one thing really well, will always beat other products doing multiple things. Also, I wouldn't knock COTS stuff, you'd be surprised how many things are using it, that you're probably totally in love with As for the SpaceX comment that we're working directly with them, it's about the type of stuff we're doing. We're doing design work, and breaking world firsts. If you can't understand that I have real world hands on experience, including in very modern tech, and actually understand this stuff, then to avoid useless debates where you just won't accept fact and experience, from here on, it seems you'd be be happy I (and possibly anyone with knowledge really) not reply to your questions, or input, no matter how much help you could be given to help you, or let you learn. It seems you're happy reading your data sheets, factory service manuals, and only want people to reinforce your thoughts and points of view. 
    • I don't really understand because clearly it's possible. The factory ECU is running on like a 4 MHz 16-bit processor. Modern GDI ECUs have like 200 MHz superscalar cores with floating point units too. The Haltech Nexus has two 240 MHz CPU cores. The Elite 2500 is a single 80 MHz core. Surely 20x the compute means adding some PID boost control logic isn't that complicated. I'm not saying clock speed is everything, but the requirements to add boost control to a port injection 6 cylinder ECU are really not that difficult. More I/O, more interrupt handlers, more working memory, etc isn't that crazy to figure out. SpaceX if anything shows just how far you can get arguably doing things the "wrong" way, ie x86 COTS running C++ on Linux. That is about as far away from the "correct" architecture as it gets for a real time system, but it works anyways. 
    • Holy hell! That is absolutely stunning! Great work!!!
    • It does when you start adding everything else in. But it's not just compute. It's the logic. Getting your timing right (I'm not meaning ignition timing for the engine). Making sure of your memory mappings, seeing your interrupts. Microcontroller devices only have so much capacity. For the most part, you want all those timers and interrupts in use on your engine control, which means you're left with less than ideal methods for timing and management of other control functions.   Let's put it this way, my job is all about building custom hardware, that goes into cars, and integrates with them. We're also waiting on a media confirmation from SpaceX too fora world first we've just completed with them in NZ too. It's not just the little toys I play with. But you know, you can think and believe what you want.
