Hi all, I am a new ceffy owner :P Got a few questions for you guys

1) Why does my ceffy have two throttles in the engine bay? My mate said it may have had cruise control but i couldn't find anything on the dash.

2) Is the ceffy actually wider than the sil? What offset is required for wheels to be flush with the guards?

3) Where can I get a kit?

and... 4) SR or RB20 for the conversion :( (I lost my lisence for 6 months so I got about 5k and 5 more months to make it into something decent ;))

Thanks for your help,

Chris

Im not looking for huge power as I have already lost my lisence once and the temptation would be even greater with a 25, just looking around 150-170rwkw which is quite possible with a near stock rb20, maybe with a tb25 turbo or something. That 5k wasn't justr for the engine btw :(

LoL, you will piss that in no worries.

Just go an rb20 then. Say aftermarket management. Go the rb25 turbo so it makes that power easier. FMIC, gearbox if yours is still auto etc.

Theres ya 5k...

Then spend whatever else you had on decent suspension. Springs that work (ie not too hard) all your sway bars, castor, camber, bushes, then get stuck in to the brakes etc. Have the whole package.

Yeah if you want response go the sr20 with the s15 BB turbo. too_much was pulling 190rwkw with his sil80 I believe.

You'll need a FMIC, fuel pump, injectors, tune ... plus engine plus gearbox.. hmm I think done right you could pull it under $5k.

I'd go the SR ... I would never ever put a rb20 into a cefiro.. if it alreayd had one in there then no worries.. but why would you put one in ? :D

That's 197.7rwkw thankyou very much!.. on 12psi with factory ecu, injectors and afm!

will be interesting to see what it does on 16-17psi

3) For a kit there are a few guys on NS.com (sponser section) selling kits.

4) i'd go a RB25, or SR20, just depends on what you want. SR for dorifto.

I was under the impression rb was:

+more powerful stock

+designed for the car

++cheaper

-older

-less torquey

sr's:

+newer

+torque

+lighter

+more aftermarket parts

-more expensive

-less base power

Won't be using the car for pure drift, maybe an event evey now and again. So many people seem to be against the rb :)

hey when you go from rb to sr did you have to change any of the mounts? did you buy them or fabricate? how is it done? also how much of a pain would it be to get your warning lights and speedo etc working? perhaps too much could enlighten us?? :)

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
