    Gotta love the T28 turbo super responsive
    1.16 bar (16.8psi) @ 2889rpm this morning.

    Sourced an ihi vn14 turbo good for about 300-320rwhp with quicker spool than t28. Thinking poncams, z32 afm along with the walbro pump and 1000cc injectors I got with the car purchase and maybe e85.

    Gktech intake pipe with 3inch snout to go with the new turbo.

    Got a compression test done recently. Results: cylinders 1 & 2- 170psi
    cylinders 3 & 4- 160psi
    Very happy to have a strong and healthy SR at 130,000km. Plugs were due for an upgrade to platinums though as standard plugs are starting to foul coming up to 5,000km use.

    Modified the stock bov to hold more boost by plugging the bleeder hole inside the two halves. Seems to pull alot harder through the rev range now. Also swapped my small k&n cone filter for a larger 3A Racing pod, induction noise become louder as a result.

    Now with summer upon us and the weather heating up, i have started to notice high knock readings on the power fc hand controller when boosting off the lights after sitting idle. So i ordered an apexi style pod filter enclosure to help combat the heat soak, but after installation discovered the box wasnt air tight and still didnt eliminate my problem. My next idea is to seal the box completely, wrap the intercooler piping & intake pipe in some heat reflective tape and possibly setup a bilge fan inside the enclosure that feeds cold air from behind the headlight.

    Do you have the new turbo on yet? Looks good, I like the mods you are doing.

    Im still saving for a few supporting mods and tune, then ill get the turbo fitted. Probably going to go to unigroup to get it tuned as ive heard good things about their work with the power fc.

    Got around to sealing the pod filter enclosure yesterday, i used some square rubber roof flashing from bunnings to create the seal around the afm and box. Then i cut a plastic chopping board into shape using a cardboard template i made earlier and closed the sides and top around the factory snorkel and painted it black to match. Pretty happy with how it turned out.

    After owning an sr20de s13 while on my P's and becoming a regular at qld raceway and archerfield drift nights, i decided it was time to head out to eastern creek last month and have some fun with the s15. Let me tell you the difference in power delivery was awesome, going from a non turbo to now having 250hp at the wheels felt amazing to slide on. The transitions were smoother, I could hold alot more angle mid corner, power over was now possible and i barely had to bang the clutch as much as i did before. Overall the s15 is a much more solid, balanced and capable car compared to my old s13, whilst still being a comfortable, easy daily to drive during the week. I am more than happy with my purchase and will continue to drive, build and keep having fun with the s15 into the future.

    Also here's a picture of my old s13

    Recently bought a new nissan quest 120 amp alternator from the usa along with an aeroflow turnbuckle bracket to suit. Apart from drilling the bottom alternator hole out to 10mm and fitting the new bracket its a straight bolt up with all plugs and cables the same. After I installed them last weekend its helped stop fluctuating revs at idle and on slow turns at full lock, increased spark to coilpacks while on boost, headlights are now brighter, windows wind up faster and voltage now sits at a constant 14.2volts after startup. I highly recommend this mod for anyone looking to upgrade their alternator or having voltage drop issues.

    More parts for my turbo swap come in the mail recently. Received braided water and oil lines, stainless steel turbo gaskets, circuit sports 7 layer exhaust manifold gasket and 1 bar garrett wastegate actuator.

    Purchased an R35 afm with 76mm alloy pipe and harness from JapanDyno online. Was about half the price of a z32 unit and should be better to tune with also.

    For anyone that has a notchy or crunching gearbox I highly recommend you try nulon g70 gearbox additive. For the last 6 months my gearbox has been really notchy when cold and I've been getting a crunch when shifting at high revs from 1st to 2nd gear. Recently I added one 125ml tube of g70 to the box through the gearstick hole and it has 100% fixed the notchy shifting and crunching. This is definitely a product worth every cent at only $15 from supercheap you can't go wrong.

    How often are you changing your gearbox oil?

    Kirksil13
    Post #21

    Ive only owned the s15 for about 18 months but i changed gearbox oil when i first bought the car and had a new clutch put in. I used castrol syntrans then and she's probably due for another change now coming up to 20,000km since.

    More suspension goodies arrived. After I noticed the s15 had a couple of busted castor rod bushes, I decided to replace the whole arm with these quality adjustable KKR items. I've previously used a pair of these before in my s13 build and was really happy with how solid they are and also like the bonus of having dust boot protectors over the rose joints.

    I've also added another handy gadget to the interior department. It's a temperature controller with lcd display, which Ive hooked up to keep an eye on my air intake temps http://www.autospeed...isplay&A=112617 . It also has a feature with a relay output that can switch on fans, pumps, warning buzzer etc when a predetermined temperature has been reached. I currently have mine wired into the intercooler water sprayer which comes on when my intake temps get above 50°c

    I fitted the castor rods and superpro steering rack bushes over the weekend and managed to get a wheel alignment done yesterday afternoon and WOW what a difference it has made to the cars handling. Settings are as follows: Front camber -2'40, castor 7, toe +0.5mm
    Rear camber 1'10, toe -0.5mm
    Also note that i recently lowered the s15 an extra 20mm.
    With this setup there is so much more front end grip available on turn in and mid corner, for example not far from my place there's an S road that snakes downhill. Before the alignment i would start to understeer when pushing any harder than 60kmh, now i can comfortably hold 80kmh through the links with no understeer at all. I did want to try and set my rear toe to 0 but i ran out of adjustment with the stock items. So pending tyre wear, adjustable toe rods might be on the agenda in the near future.

    Got my exhaust system setup just as i wanted it now. A free flowing system that sounds like stock or quieter. I also picked up an extra 20mm ground clearance as well. The exhaust system now consists of 3in X force dump pipe, front pipe, high flow cat and mid pipe then changes into the stock 2-2.5in diff back exhaust.

    Dyno day today for the s15. Cracked 236kw on e75 but afr's were starting to lean out a little up top. Also had issues with the r35 afm maxing out when we tried to run 22psi, so we left the final tune at 20psi and 233kw.

    Overall very happy with the results. The turbo has gobs of torque that comes on super early in the rev range and the boost controller holds 18psi nearly all the way to redline.

    With poncams and a bigger/different afm this combo will be a killer setup for a daily driver and occasional track sessions.
