Rolling Road List! 26th September @ Circuit Motors, Castle Combe

Possible cause?
Looks like the plastic supply pipe to the tub.It would not cause a boost leak but let unfiltered air into the turbo which would not do it any good.Probaly is goosed mate.

Should I go lower?
Z1 do the oil return kits,youlll need them also as stock ones are no good.Deffo get the oem manifold gaskets instead of the ones supplied with the Ams ones.have you got the pipework to mate up with the couplers into the turbo bud ?

Should I go lower?
You get all the hardware for them in the end?

Should I go lower?
Looks spetacular this car anyway.will be even better lowered.Didnt want to give that one back.Drove beautiful and looks a peach.Remember to get all your geometry reset Alan after the mods.Just fitted the high flow manifolds and rps flywheel on mine.Makes a nice difference.Bounces off the limiiter very quickly now.Feels more free if you know what i mean.When shall we book you in for yours :D

Rolling Road List! 26th September @ Circuit Motors, Castle Combe
The guy sounded helpful and was familiar with nissans.They have dyno,d a 700hp 200sx tuned by norris designs.Thats the one to beat he told me.I should do that easy :rofl:.Yeh i wish :rolleyes:

Standard TT Injectors - High or Low Impedance
I looked at this but a top feed injector is around 45mm deep.The rails would be a pain to fit under the plenum and may have required machining of the lower inlet to get the injectors lower for clearance.It could be done i imagine with a bit of trial and error.Would make a hell of a saving.Top feeds are peanuts compared with sidefeeds.

Rolling Road List! 26th September @ Circuit Motors, Castle Combe
I think their is some confusion here.The firm i spoke too Murt was circuit motors in castle coombe.The number i sent you was for them also.Circuit have a two year old Dastek dyno and have done quite a few days for other clubs.

Will go all out to get her done bud ;).If you want to put her on thats fine mate.But only if you make less power than me :D.

Which Turbo To Upgrade To?
T28s are a bit serious for a stock motor.They are a big tub and can make 300+hp each.Youd never explore their potential on a stock motor and would not be able to run them past around 10psi without fear of running your injectors lean.A nice upgrade would be jwt sport 500s or z1s gt500s.Great spooling tub capable of good power if needed.

Dont waste your money on the express shipping.On the standard service youll get it in 4 days anyway.You wont get it any quicker paying more.If you lived in the states you would but not here.You will get customs charges no matter what you spend.If youve spent around $2000 expect a customs charge of about £180

Zorst Loudness question...
Having your cats removed for an mot is not a failure.Not passing a cat test is.Id expect dave that the cars exhaust noise will increase a bit but it shouldnt be excessive.Joely p had that set up and it did give a nice exhaust note after that was ok through the rev range and didnt drive you nuts on long journeys.

Knock sensor
ok mate.let me know if you cancel the sensor and i will sort it out for you.
-
Knock sensor
I can sort a sensor out for you.Have you checked the loom for continuity? Only one wire reaches the sensor.The other is a shielding wire and coils around the other to stop interference.If the plug is shot i could sort one of those also.
-
Knock sensor
If you dont know what det sounds like then its some insurance.As legrath correctly stated some chips can have knock maps and will run these when knock is detected.They will also retard timing and enrich fuelling to combat the detonation.Is it the loom or sensor your after?
-
What Oil Pressure?
Its more than likely your gauge is not 100% accurate.Oil pressure should not affect your seals.The only force exerted on them is crank case pressure.So a leaking rear main will have no bearing whatsoever on oil pressure unless of course you run out of oil.

astra 2.0 turbo diesel problem
The solenoid you mentioned actuates the egr valve.They too can play up.To eliminate the egr valve.Where it connects back into the inlet manifold make up a gasket from a piece of coke can so it blocks off the system.Then try it.
