This is my black four door. It started off life as a gun metal grey 20e auto. when I got a hold of it it was black, manual and 20de. I have since converted it to 20DET and I am in the process of getting it certified.

Mods:

20det

25det turbo

front facing plenum

alloy radiator

front mount intercooler

waste spark.

to do:

adjustibles

drive shaft hoops

5 stud and brakes

cert

boost controller

Only plans for it are to be a street car thats can be taken to the track and be raced, dragged, skidded or drifted.

I need to fit a longer throttle cable for my plenum, cant find a longer one and no one has cable thick enough for me to make the stock one longer and they are not very helpful haha, they all think its too hard and send me on my way. Wouldnt be the first time making a throttle cable, ah well. just the way it goes.

So what is a good cable to use as an alternative or is there aftermarket ones to suit.

Well took it out for its first drive in ages..... looks like I need a new clutch and it stalls sometimes when I pull up to a stop, a slight miss on decel and a miss just as boost comes on that goes away. Yet to look into it but I think either it has a air leak or the cheap fuel reg is shit house.

Other than that very happy with how it runs and how much more power it has, surprisingly torquey with my monster plenum :yes:

Here is my birthday skid for my 21st a few months back

and how the engine bay looked not so long ago :whistling:

Hey mate, nice ride. Just curious what power you're making with that set up?

Also regarding your car stalling, mine did the same. Had my ics (idle control sensor) pulled apart and cleaned, now she's sweet as :) carbon builds up in them and jams em up

Thanks, I have no idea. It's yet to be dynod and tuned, but it goes like a cut cat. It was as fast as my mates 25DET but his wasn't Running right haha.

Thanks I Will try that, I recently cleaned the boost tee and now its stable as. Was full of black gunk and would hit 15 pound and creep back to 13psi etc. Good now though! Goes to show how much of an impact that black stuff makes.

Well I checked everything off on my list, making some decent power pre tune. Luched two gearboxes and a diff haha

Run a 14.2 @104mph. Would have done better but a lost 5th so had to pull the pin. New box and a tune will see me in the 13's :)

    • Start with a multimeter, and see if you're getting power at the TPS. There should be a manual for your car somewhere on these forums and it'll have the info for what closed TPS signal voltage is, and how it should sweep to full throttle. Same as for other sensors / valves.   Have you checked things like your base timing etc? See if anything looks amiss there too?
    • here are 2x options to consider: https://www.selby.com.au/price-promise/tonewinner-sw-d6000-subwoofer.html https://www.apollohifi.com.au/svs-pb-3000-ported-subwoofer-black-ash-pre-order.html I'm waiting for a good BF/CM sale and will pull the trigger on a new sub, I do like the SVS PB-3000 (13") but you could nearly buy 2x Tonewinner D6000s (15")
    • Think I found another reason to buy the Q50 rather than the skyline import, seems that unless you get the 400r the other models such as the GT miss out on the decent brakes and don't have the flappy paddles on the steering wheel to change gears. Its my day off work today and the Q50 listed @ the dealer in Brisbane that I mentioned in my 1st post looks like it sold as its listed as no longer available... Would have checked it out but can understand why it sold as it was a bargain price.
    • omfg.... That shopping list game. I'd hoped I'd never see it again.
    • There are fixes for this. In industry we use compressed air for everything. It is frequently wet, and many things cannot tolerate it. So there are various forms of driers available that you can install. The simplest option for something like this would be a dessicant drier. Much cheaper to replace some silica gel than actuator cylinders.
