These results give me a little tingly feeling in my balls thinking what the -5's will be like on my 30/26. Obviously provided it's setup as brilliantly well as yours is.

Hats off to you for your perseverance with it! Now the fun begins (driving it!).

Enjoy!

Car is finally booked into Insight on the 19th of April for the ECU, fuel system and sensor wire in plus the tune. Thats the good news. The bad news is that V-cam aint gonna fit with my pistons and ho

Small update.... ITS RUNNING. Fired first go! Smells like burnt dust apparently .

A 9174 would just make the EGP pressure issue worse and in my mind it seems like a bit of a GT RS shit going on. Not that it's horrendously bad (It wouldn't be no twin buttplug pressures), That's NOT

I think you need a 4wd dyno to do the final power output.

Do you know how much timing your running?? not sure if you know, when running tight squish you dont need the timing and if you put timing in it does not like it and what AFR is the tune to under full load?

I can't answer that Bobby. I will find out specifics later on as the tune is not finished. it only had 9 runs or so. I dare say the AFR's will be a little richer then what you like ;)

As for 4WD dyno. Wanna spot me a run up on yours? :P

Was lucky enough to take a mates 26/30 for a belt in Melbourne with dash 5's built by rp

300rwkw at 3000rpm

You will love it

A fair bit of thought went into it all. I think the interesting thing is the cam duration. They are not massive lumpy grumpy things!

Having seen a sorted 30 with 5's on the same dyno.... providing it's sorted, you're in for something special ;)

What is the deficit going from rwkw to awkw in your experience Bobby?

300rwkw at 1400rpm less than Paul's is insane!!!

Didn't your mate Deimar do a test at CRD one day and there was 2 KW in it?

were your cams dialed in?

Zero zero... We only did 9 runs from a totally new ECU and that's what it spat out.

They will have a tickle this week to see what it does. If it takes away from the midrange I don't want it!

I mean when the motor was build! since the cams are custom, its why i asked if cams have been dialed in to find zero? if not, i think its a good idea to know where the cams should be before playing with them

We know where they are at zero zero. Yavuz set the loves up where he thinks they should be.... Not to say a degree here or there might make the difference.

Lets see what next week brings ;)

Geeeez looks like that port work on the head is doing the trick...

Who would have thought HKS knew what they were doing :/

But did they? its had the super special cams and springs changed in....

Edit: of course they know, but is it better than something that could of been done locally, as yavuz deemed it necessary to make these changes

Its hard to quantify any gains from port work without doing back to back tests. You really need to do a stock head with all the same bolt ons. Then try a worked head with all the same bits and compare results. However, not many people actually have the time or money to try that exactly.

Everyone gets tempted by changes when they have the engine apart lol.

Well nothing changed apart from the head, cams and an extra 0.5mm on the pistons. ECU did but meh

      George's R33 GTST build

      By pogman · Posted

      Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.

      They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.

      I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
