Overnights parts from Japan

This is a Xmas Present from the Wifey. So probably won't be putting them on until then!

These are Quest LED lights (Nismo style)

Got these through a fellow SAU forum member elrodeo666. Good price, quick and easy to deal with! Would recommend!

And a pic from the weekend. Estblshd & PAC Paul Walker Charity Meet

Quick buffing of headlights by Artz

Before pic has already got a hand polish of Plastic X by myself

Came up real nice

Are you going to get a gtr reo to see if that closes up the bonnet-bar gap?

…keen to see if it does so I can then do the same!

Yup have already ordered the GTR reo from Japan should arrive in Jan, and fingers crossed fitted late Jan/early Feb

Also fingers crossed I have time to fit this on in the next few weeks.

It's a ATR45 turbo that is the same specs as a 3582 from a XR6 Turbo. Should solve my turbo restriction issues

New led's on:

[Bushy]

Just read through this, massive transformation, looks great! Still planning on tracking it?

Yup thats still the plan. Fingers crossed can track it for the full 2014 year

Things to go on within the next two weeks:

1. 3582 Turbo

2. Better intercooler piping bend

3. Shave off a bit of the suspension arm so I can fit my hankook rs3

4. Try and fix rubber heater hoses that are touching the manifold

5. Oil cooler + thermostat

Then will just need to look at a some suspension maintenance and a wheel alignment and the she should be set!

much nice.

Didn't build anything on the weekend

Just got a car wash so its slipperier through the air and faster on the straights

[B-rice]

damn shawtyyyyy

[blah_blah]

So in for a tune on the new turbo.

But there is an underlying problem with the car. At this stage it may be the injectors. So we are going to pull them out and flow test them

In coming to this analysis we switched to e85 fuel, so will probably just stick with e85 fuel.

At this stage the car makes 315rwkw at 4,500 rpm. Trent thinks it will get close to 400rwkw once the issue is fixed.

TBH 400rwkw seems way to much power for me to handle. So will see how it goes!

You really do love your car...

[blah_blah]

Just checking to see if its washed properly

I'd stand closer to the girls personally

Just a more detailed post of the tune day:

Picture of the dyno, you can sort of see the dyno graph in the rear. Graph stops at 4,500 rpm

So something was stopping the car from making power and taking timing on the day.

At first suspect cam timing or compression. But checked cam timing on the dyno, and did a compression test. ~175psi across all cylinders.

Spark plugs changed. Dropped the exhaust. But made no difference. Still stuggling to make more than 310rwkw

So Trent tried a run on e85 but it still had the same issue. Car only took about 12 degrees of timing normally about 20. Only bumped up power to 315rwkw @ 4,500rpm

It is a suspected faulty injector so off to get it checked.

Pulled the injectors out this morning. As we have a suspected faulty injector. A simple quick test shows they seem to be ok. But will be sent away for a more detailed analysis

In prep for the Dyno. Scotty @ Scotty Customs did:

• Turbo install
• New fuel pump Walbro 460L/H
• Metal turbo elbow, as a silicone one was a bit close to the manifold
• New Return flow intercooler bend. As the old one was quite crap

Turbo Elbow:

Intercooler bend:

Things to do over the next month:

1. Fix issue with car that is holding it back

2. Fix heater hoses touching manifold

3. Fit oil cooler

Tony. Get some steel zip ties for the heater hoses. Good shit

[Leroy Peterson]

just realised you may be one of the only 300kw+ R34's to be using stock intake and airbox lol what a monster

I don't think zip ties would work here. I think braided lines will need to be made and run it over the engine.

Hrmmm Im sure there would be many out there!

Might need to do a sneaky mod and cut the bottom of the airbox and fit a pod with another intake down the track if it ever becomes a restriction
