Yeah, my cruising speed is considered 2krpm or lower. Its the standard dash gauge. It goes up fine to about 4 when moving and higher when its higher up in the revs.

should be fine then.

been thining about switching to Penrite as well, I use it in my other cars and its great stuff and about half the price of motul so can change it more frequently.

Ive only put it in my 33 diff and it feels good..think I will just go with the HPR 10, 10-50...think its good for ethanol too yeah

hoiw much is the ten tenths stuff?

i paid $79.95 at a local store for the 5w-60. can probably be gotten cheaper elsewhere but i was in a hurry

In a stock motor anything under 10w40 is a bit thin. Built motor I wouldnt use anything under 15w50.

Thats just me.

Same here that's exactly what I've been told.

I brought some 100% syn 20w 50 amsoil for $80. I get 600kpa when cold on idol, and when warm it's usually 80-100kpa above revs. Eg 2k revs is 280kpa oil press (40psi). it's thinner than the 10w40 & 25w50 oils I have seen (cold) and my car rb20 seems really happy on it. It's the same as their race oil but AMS say it's good for 30,000ks in a new vehicle.

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Silly question, as I bet you've checked already, but the motor turns over by hand yes? I suspect Neil has a spare starter, though if not, I believe I have a spare R33 (or two) starter.
