Should install some cams while ur at it, iv got some 256 drop in which will go really good with this combo!
Hey Jordan, hope your well ?
Today I have had the most emotional day myself.
I guess we can all have days like that sometimes now and then.
Please do look after yourself and I'll catch up with you again on the next one.
Regards, William.
Hey William I hope you’re ok buddy look after yourself mate
@sheriffjalloh6284 Yeah, not too bad. I've been crying a bit now, and then.
Still trying my best to get on with things as best as possible.
Thanks for your support, mate.
Please do look after yourself as well, mate.
Regards William.
Hey William, Thanks mate! So sorry to hear, that is true we all have days like that now and then. Always remember to think positive and do the things that you love and make you happy! Please take care and as always don’t hesitate to let me know if you ever need a chat! Thanks again for watching and all the best! 💪🏻
@ThatCarLife Many thanks, same to you, my friend 💪Thanks for your support.
Also since you got a Haltech, it's worth tuning it on dual fuel. E85 is corrosive on parts over time so it's good to flush your fuel system with pump 98 every now & again
The more power you make, the more it breaks. Keep power to a mild figure (250kwish). It will allow to drive the pants off it and keep it reliable. People get carried away with outright power figures these days, but one of these with 220kw is soo much fun (mine makes 300whp, as it has for over 10 years and still starts everytime, stock everything internal wise)
The gearboxes are like glass. Award diff and gearboxes in seven hills do the 3rd to 4th circlip mod, which will allow it to live longer and be good for 250kw reliably. As long as you don’t think it’s a dog box and have mechanical sympathy, you will be fine. Done heaps of them and my own (as I’m sure you have plenty of mates too) cheers
Oh, and also, pull the motor out to do the job. Makes it sooo much better to work on, and allows you to make sure everything is done right.
Tuners are lazy, a nistune is perfectly fine for those power figures. It’s just easier for them because of base maps/previous tunes etc.
Thanks so much this is all great advice!! That’s sick that your s15’s been going that strong for that long with that power 💪🏻 Will defiantly look into the gearbox circlip mod, do you know roughy how much they charge? And Yeap I’m leaning towards pulling out the motor now to do it all, will also give me a chance to clean up the engine bay and possibly paint it too 👀 Thanks again for your comment and for watching! 🔥
Good sensible advice 👍
You have a good responsive turbo 👍 drop in some Step 1 cams, these will work with stock valve springs and VCT. I went with HKS step 1 256/264 staggered cams. Also the 6 speed will live below 300kw, all depends on how you treat it 🤙
Damn bro, you've been really patient! Hopefully it all turns out the way you like!
Been waiting a long time for sure! Thank you me too! 🙌🏻
Been subbed for ages but haven't commented before, just wanted to say your vids are killer because you always keep it real bro. You inspired me to start posting vids again recently with my new R33. Keep being a good bloke brother and good luck with the build.
Absolute legend man thank you heaps! Appreciate you! Love your 33 man just subbed! Keep at it! 🔥
@@ThatCarLife Means loads bro, appreciate it. Thanks man and you too!
Are you related to TikTok house inspector??
I am not but I love his videos!! “I sense non compliant works” 😂😂 Do we look related? Ahaha
@@ThatCarLife you kinda look and sound like him😁
First i thought his doing car inspection now
Hey bud, its hard work to do everything. ive done similar mods on my 1jz vvti soarer. get the engine profressional sort and sealed. then you can do the turbo upgrade yourself. it shouldnt be super difficult im sure can can do turbo part yourself and get it tunned professionally. im just waiting for a tune on my car
Hey man, thanks so much! Yeah I think that’s defiantly doable! And keen to see how your soarer turns out! 🔥
Mad video bro!
Thanks legend, likewise!! 🔥🙌🏻
i blew my box with only 215kw as the stock cams makes power down low which then makes alot of torque therefore not good for the shit 6 speeds. I'd recommend going a bigger cam as it will make more power up top rather than down low, this will help you can reach your goal of 280kw however it will feel abit laggy but it will save your box.
keen to see it happen jordan, take your time
Thanks Brayden, me too! 🔥 Definitely will! 🙌🏻
Go hard bro send it 💪
I think I will bro! 🔥💪🏻
Taarks or PRP coil kit
Def install an o2 wideband controller and a can gauge with the Haltech, most tuners won’t touch it without the wideband controller. Can gauge also allows you to monitor your afr easily too
he will be able to tune it without a wideband if the tuner uses his own external wideband during the dyno session. Problem with that is the ecu now relies of the stock narrow band o2 which will be fairly useless. Personally id rather see an elite 1500 being used with a CAN wideband and let the ecu also control boost. You can wire in a simple high low switch or 12 position rotary switch for more flexibility.
Thanks bro!! What O2 wideband controller do you recommend?
@@ThatCarLife Haltech make one. Contact Haltech and see if they have one suitable to the ecu you have.
I’ve spoken to a few tuners and they wouldn’t even consider tuning mine without it. You want the best possible tune on your car too… a bad tune can kill an engine quickly.
@@ThatCarLife you’ll also have to consider upgrading your fuel lines.
Bigger brakes might also be worth considering at your power goal.
All killer mods only other thing I’d add would be some small cams tomei poncams or some small Kelfords.
Will be a killer combo.
Thanks bro!! Good idea, if I’m able to fit it in with my budget I definitely will! 🙌🏻
@@ThatCarLife made a huge difference with my old SR. 4.3 diff gears too made it so fun to drive
@@Wintersgarage_ can vouch for this. I run an r33 diff with 4.1 gears and a 5-speed box and it pulls like a train
Labor wise you can save some money doing all the disassembly stuff yourself. Reassembly is where you'll learn some new skills. With the only daunting process being torqueing the head studs and reassembly of the head, shims and timing. Cleaning the block surface with the pistons still in is do able just take your time with a razor and make sure its very clean for proper headgasket seal.
We did this on a friends sr20 and it turned out fine. Cam wise I had stock cams on a hks gt-rs (2871r) on 21psi I made 245rwkw. Since you're getting the head rebuilt ask if they can do a light tidy up of the ports (this supposedly is where most of the easy gains are when preforming a port and polish.) that should improve flow while still having stock cams. The great thing about stock cams is its easy on the vct and drivability down low is sweet.
I'm not sure about the sport 1000 but it does look like it has some features above a nistune. The elite series I agree is a massive jump up but see what the Platinum can do with engine protection features. Its well worth setting up!
I you need the matching Platinum sport wideband controller + o2 sensor cheaply hit me up :)
Thanks so much man! Definitely excited but nervous to slap it together, will take my time with it and make sure I have some good help too! That’s a good idea I’ll defs ask them to do that with the head! And thanks legend, I might take you up on that ! Send me a message on thatcarlifee on IG!
Install it all yourself bro with some mates, best way to learn. Loads of resources online everywhere for these cars. Save your money for when the gearboxs turns to atoms on the m5.
Thanks bro!! Definitely leaning towards doing that, will be a lot of fun and a great learning experience! That’s true heaps of stuff online, I’m very keen! 🙌🏻
if you are too scared to do the seals and what not get somebody to do it then you can put the turbo and stuff on yourself and take your time with it
Very good idea!! Thanks bro!
Can’t wait till this thing hits 280kw!
Thanks bro me too!! 🔥🔥 Will definitely need some of your assistance with this stuff 😂
Get a Link Plug in Ecu n wideband
They are really good ECU’s! 🙌🏻
These mods are sick bro!! 🙌 S15s gonna rip!! 🏎💨💥
Thanks Nicholas!! Literally can’t wait! 🙌🏻
first
Legenddd 🔥
