Wilch.. cheers for the heads up

why did no-one mention this earlier :D..

Was it mainly doing it when I was going full throttle, I think it's the fact that the car is running really rich.. was a/f of about 10.5 when I got it dynoed..

I mentioned it on the CB after you overtook me.

I wasn't entirely sure what your nick was, and I kinda forgot about it by the time I put a nick to a car.

edit: were you in the 350Z scathing.. pretty sure when I was overtaking you it was prob in 3rd at about 6000 rpm.. so yeah.. wouldn't surprise me..

we were doing some great speeds through the hills with those bikes around..

Lol.. no worries guys.. thanks for the feedback..

Went for a spin before - doesn't look like it's on low throttle..

For the moment I won't worry.. looks like I could have been the only one doing it though. ;)

350z was a guy from my work

Just out of curiosity, how much does a full respray cost...  I'm talking the whole thing (incl engine bay)

at least 5-6 grand for a "factory finish" paintjob. about 10-12 grand for mirror finish/something like (or even better than?) what high end mercs/beemers have ;)

scathing - what car were you driving.. sorry mate - just trying to find out..

ahhaha that's slack doodz.. but amusing..

so what happened - did you get a ticket..

he said to me and ed I think it was that "i've got a book full of red stickers in my car and I don't mind handing them out.. if you want I can start defecting and your cars will be going home on tow trucks, but I don't think you guys want that.."..

oh well.. did he follow us to Avoca?

I wound down the boost for the trip home.. hmm.. brown smoke.. that's not the best..

Might have to see how it runs when I get home, it's damn hard to see things like that when your driving thanks for letting me know..

it stalled when I came off the freeway.. restarted - blew a heap of shit than seemed to clear up.. wasn't blowing anything out of the ordinary when i was sitting in the car park @ thornleigh when we finished up..

hopefully just the richness, but you never know.. didn't seem to be having issues making boost - so I think the turbo is still ok..

It only seemed to happen when you went full throttle. What boost are ya running?

It's currently running about 8psi I do believe.. I had it wound up to about 10/11 earlier in the day however it was hesitating quite badly which I think was probably rich and retard, as soon as I put it back down a bit it was happy to rev nicely all the way up..

anyone else got any ideas on what it could be.. maybe it's time to check the voltage on the O2 sensor and maybe look at SAFCII

Don't worry too much about it Links. All R33's do it when you run 10psi. The stock ECU is way too overprotective. It will do it on lower boost settings as well on cold nights.

Put a GTT or front mount intercooler (justjap have some bargins in the Business for sale forums) and just ditch the stock ECU for a powerFC and you will get rid of all those hesitation/overboost/r&r problems and you can run 10psi safely full time.

Thanks Sewid - i'll take a look at them.. currently have to buy a couple of household things before the car gets any new items.. might just have to take it easy on the boost..

i'm gonna take out the O2 sensor and give it a good ol' clean and shake to see if it's still ok - it was working last time I had a consult cable in it..

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
