My 100RWKW R33 Dyno Results

[lukits01]

the thing is I cant seem to get it unto the third white marker

Ive reset the ECU and placed the CAS on the centre

I check with timing light and the markers line up to the first orange line

I set it fully anti clockwise and it only moved to the first white marker

after a bit of driving I checked the timing again and it was back to the first orange marker...

so... I have no clue why its doing this

Is the engine idle right, it should be 650rpm +/- 50rpm

sory for the nOOb question, but can someone tell me what CAS stands for?

[lukits01]

idle seems normal around 700Rpm when engine is warm

CAS: Crank Angle Sensor

Where are you picking up the trigger signal for the timing light?

Timing on a Skyline can be a pain, this is what I do to make sure the signal is pure......

I take the #1 coil right off and lay it on the cam cover. I them stick a piece of insulated wire inside the coil (like it was a spark plug) so it makes contact. I connect the other end of the wire to the spark plug. I loop the sensor from the timing light around the piece of wire. That way you get a nice clean signal from only 1 cylinder, with no delay (light flashes exactly when the plug fires).

Hope that helps

i take the trigger from the wire leading to the no 1 coil, just before the coil plug

There were no problems with this a few weeks ago

since then I manage to pop an intercooler hoose and since fixing that, have not been able to adjust the timing correctly

Wo, there's a couple of unrelated occurances. Are there any error codes on the ECU?

[lukits01]

error codes... uhm... dont you need a diagnostics tool to find that out?

Im just working with basics at the moment

Not sure if I want to bother taking it to a mechanic because Im installing a wolf in a week or so

Well if it has something wrong now, it will still have something wrong when the the Wolf goes in.

Ha ha. Gold

[lukits01]

true that hahaha

I meant I probably wont bother letting a mechanic take a look at it untill I take the car to get the wolf done. hopefully then they can figure out the problem and then put the wolf in.

Would any workshop or mechanic have diagnostic tool? because I went to nissan awhile back and they said it wont be compatible with import cars

But I was pretty sure this workshop that service my car has it and used it on my car before
