A bit of a pictorial wrap up of the first round of the Nulon Nationals at SMSP. Held on a wet skid pan, it's a Motorsport event that pits 9 forum based car clubs against each other in club level Motor

And here is some in car footage of the day, showing the wheel work required for such tight courses! Sorry for my fat melon being all over the pics

Stagea's paint looks bloody good Alex. Nice to see some more pics from the Stagea meet. Scrolled down for more, only to be greeted with the red crusty that fouls up this thread

Nice work guys, looks like she's going to be a sleeper engine bay.:ph34r: If you decide to get any of the exhaust ceramic coated down the track; let me know, I know a guy who's a perfectionist.:thumbsup:

Lol @ "Daleo magic" ; I thought you & the missus were looking the other way while I was shagging your manifold. Mmmm, cast irony...:3some:

looking forward to the finished article.

Well, did a little bit more on the car today...The ECU harness is now out of Medium/well done territory, heat wrapped and out of the way of the exhaust, as are whatever else could be moved from the back of the motor. Re-assembled the coolant piping, and trial fitted the intake which looks good. Bad news is that the Fabricator is in Fiji until next week, so that slows process down. In the mean time I'd like to sort out the rest of the intake, intercooler, and whatever bits and pieces are left over. Cannot fit exhaust - will need fabrication. Also try and dump my ECU for sending over to Abbey motorsports for Uprev.

Looks the goods. Have you got a power ballpark you're expecting when its done?

Is it going to be tuned on 98 or E85?

Its going to be dyno'd RWD, on 98 (there is no E85 within 40kms of me....) Power- we'll just have to see. 240rwkw would be nice... but who knows. Thats what a 350z that had the kit just got. Dynos can read so differently, its more about how it drives- and I suspect it will be a torque monster!

Well, Intercooler is mounted up, with the intake piping post intercooler OK. Quite neat. I'll get pics when I can.

Was fun buzzing a hole in the front member to fit the cooler.... whistling.gif

Custom parts should be sorted early next week, so hopefully it'll be on the road by mid next week.

Spotted 4 NM35's at Stagea Garage this morning! Good to see Spoolin back on the road!

Nice work mate, you must be very pleased!

What custom parts have to be done?

Just the turbo piping to the intercooler, and some work to the exhaust. Should be pretty straight forward.

That turbo to cooler pipe is a pain, especially getting around the driveshaft. Probably best to fabricate it from stainless for strength mate. Its coming along nicely.

How is the tuning side going?

Agree- Stainless is a good idea, I'll mention it to them.

Tuning, nothing much really. Enquiring if some tuners will use the Uprev software. I don't really want to dump the ECU until the car is back running. It needs good battery voltage to do so, otherwise the process won't run. Having a driveable car is a priority!

Well, today I dumped the ECU with the UPREV software and cable. 3 and a bit hours of waiting! Oh well. its done now. I have emailed it off to Abbey Motorsports in the UK. They are going to tell me if I can use the uprev software, which I am almost certain I can, and give me something able to be tuned and flashed!

Ever wondered how big an ECU was...?

The file I have is just 1mb of binary. For a very complex machine, the file is kinda small I thought....

In other news, I'm still waiting for this fabrication to be done....rant.gif

      R34 GTT RB rough idle problem with weird RPM gauge fluctuations

      By tsuokun · Posted

      Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?

      Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)

      +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
