Between a rock and a hard place then

Yeah, all good I can afford to get the work done after a lifetime of working :)

I just feel like most Sheila's buying a car and me doing mods, a little out of my element :)

I know I am close to getting it how I want it. I have NOT been changing some of the gear on the car until I find out it is needed to get the best out of it. I do not mean the maximum .

Had all of the major work I wanted done at the same time, all the drivetrain done while the motor was out and anything that would be a pain once it all went back together again , well I did not expect the starter motor to be a problem as it was fine before the build ??

Decided to go "over kill" with the fuel situation and do the surge tank, twin Walbros etc before the flex tune. Just the thought of stuffing the donk up because the tank is getting low is not an option for me after going this far :)

Just gotta luv cars :)

Future proofed for when you put a bigger turbo on and get some more boost in there ;)

haha, if I cannot get what I want from a PT6262 @ 700HP+ for a street car why would I go for a bigger , laggier turbo ?

Had the 6262 on before the build and expected it to be going hard around 4000rpm, it does not spool much earlier than before the build, but drives a shit load better with the extra torque on the street but spools around the same as before the build, but with more grunt?

I will see what happens when I get it back from the builder after they fix the tune or whatever is wrong with it. If it is still shit after I get it back I will take it to someone else.

Never said anything about getting what you want currently. But the bug will bite.

NEVER NEVER NEVER !!!

I also said that, after my first marriage, 2nd and third, fark , OK I give up, LOL

What turbo do you suggest :)

Nay, just wait until I finish what I am doing , if it turns to shit , then ALL of the other "fellas (BMS )can get on board and stick it up me, LOL

Jangles it is all just a bit of fun and I love the stirrers ;)

Was that your graph on the 400 thread, 534.5KW very nice. Is it a street car ?

Yeah, definitely not going to suggest anything to confuse you more.

yes, and yes.

haha, confusion is good. Since I have started working on my car I am in a constant state of confusion :)

I struggle to read Dyno Graphs and how they translate on the road, but if your turbo working at 2500rpm it must be a great DD.

I thought mine would do the same and it is only a 6262 compared to your 6466 , stuffed if I can work out how it works :/

What cams are you using ?

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
    • Maybe SAUNSW could see howany members would do a motorkhana day if Schofield's is still available for a reasonable price...
