Josh K. Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 Tune that damn thing! Just keep the timing maps conservative. Its not that hard. I know you can do it. I tuned my SR20 on the back roads of Maui myself! Quote Link to comment
Josh K. Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 Copy a timing map and then just work the fuel maps based on your O2 readings. Watch the boost transitions to make sure it ramps the timing down fast enough. The hard part (and reason for a dyno) is that last 20-50Hp. 1 Quote Link to comment

driverwagon Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Can I ask what radiator hoses you used and what sized outlets that ebay radiator is? I used the jetta radiator and the factor ka-e hoses are too big, the outlets on the VW radiator are smaller. 1 Quote Link to comment
ByStickel Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 I missed the offset and width on the wheels. They look great. I was trying to NOT buy some 15x8 +0 Rota Grid Classic for my flared car, and these look just as good. Quote Link to comment
Janksun Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 That thing sounds so good just like that 1 Quote Link to comment
jeph Posted June 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Can I ask what radiator hoses you used and what sized outlets that ebay radiator is? I used the jetta radiator and the factor ka-e hoses are too big, the outlets on the VW radiator are smaller. I just ordered some Silicone Ka24e hoses for a 240sx i had to trim about 6 inches off of the front of both because the radiator is soo close compared to a 240sx. not sure on the outlet size though whatever a stock 240sx is. I missed the offset and width on the wheels. They look great. I was trying to NOT buy some 15x8 +0 Rota Grid Classic for my flared car, and these look just as good. They are 15x8 0 offset with 195/50/15 tires they fit great with no spacers front or rear. That thing sounds so good just like that Yeah im going to use a electronic echaust cutout at the bottom of the downpipe and run full exhaust so when i want it to be loud i can just open it up.

jeph Posted August 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Havent been on here for a bit, ran into alot of problems. Long story short, Paid for a tune, took it to the shop, tuner couldnt tune it, i got it running with a basemap from the guy who made my ecu and im waiting to find another tuner who can use his software. but i drove the car to its first meet yesterday! which was also the first time ive drove it at all so i was nervous the whole time, especially on the freeway lol i made it to the show fine untill i sat in line to get in and the car got hot because i dont have the slim fans hooked up yet. on the way there i noticed a few things that i need to fix. Transmission needs all new bearings and seals Need to wire up radiator fans Need to get a coolant overflow bottle the trans tunnel NEEDs heat reflective tape on it (trans tunnel is super hot while cruising on the freeway lol) 5 Quote Link to comment
