Yeah that's right 89cal these boys are trying to tell me that a 02 can't cause a lean mixture and you yourself no they can but most the time they cause a rich mixture I've seen it right In front of my very own eyes I've even got a damaged 02 sensor with my right now that I can 100 % prove with make a rb26 run lean

Yes cause it reads way out of limits and runs lean mate I've tried as well :) you no yourself they can cause a lean mixture when cruising simple as that I'm Finished thanks for that

Edited by Hot33r8723

No I'm telling you it wont run lean enough to melt things. It wont let it go over 15.4ish:1 AFR till the ECU takes over and pulls it back.

I'm not sure how the GTR's work but I'm guessing 1 O2 sensor for each 3 cylinders, so you may end up having it drive weird at cruise or fouling plugs in 3 cylinders, but I honestly dont think it could run lean enough to melt things

I run 15.7:1 AFR's at cruise with no issues. Some days they even get up around 16:1 for whatever reason, and my engine is fine.

I think your problem might have been your fuel pump as originally thought....

Yeah gtr one sensor for 3 cylinders and if your air flow meters resistance is out of whack as well as a damaged 02 put them together and watch them

Front 3 fry away but hey 89cal your the first person ive spoken to that actually no what there talking about an yeah I never believed the o2 would cause a lean mixture I always thought rich cause it throws a code to the ecu an depending on how your afm reads Aswell can cook cylinders

Not exactly. The 02 sensors signals are halved by the ecu. Not 1 afm per 3 cylinders.

And with the 02 sensors im pretty sure the factory ecu is batch fire so it cant physically lean out cylinders unless and injector is playing up

But any way I've got a Walbro 255 now it's a bit loud in the back end what u think about the direct feed mod do you think it's

Worth it

Definately worth it. Wen u see the flow gauge before and after a rewire it the flow goes off the gauge when rewired

Is there any real benefit in doing this with a Nismo/Tomei fuel pump?

Been thinking about doing this for a while but not real sure if its worth it

Each airflow controls each 3 cylinders I don't know about the other pumps

How can the AFM's control each three cylinders when the intake joins into one pipe before it gets to the intake manifold?

Air metered through turbo 1 joins with the air metered through turbo 2 after the intercooler, so air from turbo 1 doesnt necessarily go to cylinders 1-3, it equally spreads between all 6

So what if I run the stock wiring and don't do the direct feed mod ???? The pump wouldn't run at full capacity right ? But a Walbro needs minimum 12 volts and there's a voltage regulator that ups the voltage when revs are raised about 3000 grand right ? So the pump would be working overtime doing the direct feed mod and as Walbro says minimum voltage 12 volts and the specs of the pump would have been tested minimum 12 voltage other wise Walbro would look ridiculous for making fake claims the best thing to do is purchase a hot wire earth kit for your whole car not just up the voltage to the pump

Nah man ur 100% wrong :rolleyes: ...... Sarcasm

On a rb26 the airflow meters are before the turbos mate senses the air

Flowing through the front of each turbo and signals is sent back to the ecu telling the ecu how

Much air is flowing into each turbo and each 3 cylinders I work for tony rigioly mate

Both turbo's end up flowing air to the one point. There is one intake manifold that joins all 6 cylinders

    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
