That looks nice mate, and much much cheaper than the shop bought equivelent too. Are you trying to quieten the side exit exhaust? Only thing that quietened mine was making a chamber type silencer, using the stock backbox, which made it rear exit and about 8KGs heavier.. and it still ended up...

Went to put the Skyline gts-t fuel pump in today. Should have been an straight forward swap, but I had heard that some late K11's came with skinnier fuel pumps. Turns out mine has the skinnier fuel pump :( Skyline on top, Micra underneath. How it looked in the tank. So I bodged it, trimmed...

Here's a vid of the wideband next to the narrowband at a 30mph cruise in 3rd and 4th gear, warmed up properly now. It's like this in all gears at low rpm at cruise. With about 13:1 under acceleration off boost, 11:1 at wot off boost but when boost comes on it gradually leans out as boost...

Yeah. Speed sensor has been disconected and trialed when n/a months ago, been running flawlessly. Just gradually leans out when increasing boost pressure.

Still fighting with this stock lambda sensor though lol, but this wideband has an additional narrowband output, so I'm going to try and connect that up, hoping it will help with fuel economy, try and run closed loop at cruise. Ah right, I thought the fuel pump wouldn't be able to cope, and it...

Vacuum hose isnt connected to stock fpr so it will be at 3bar i think. And lambda isnt connected either atm, but ill get that sorted. Not tried any softer springs, its seriously leaning out on boost, 16:1 at 4psi, 18:1 at 6psi :/ so will try bigger injectors first then bring pressure down i think ?

Slightly awkward bend, tricky as I'm out of bent pipe. And out of time, silcone hose and tape will do until next week. Wideband sensor in place. Innovate MTX-L wideband controller and gauge. Finally got around to it, it seems I've been running at about 13:1 on a cold idle, 15:1 at cold...

Flange welded on Other side started. Last bit connecting side exit upto rear backbox looks a little tricky though.

This week I've been making a 2" stainless version of the original backbox, using the stock Micra backbox and universal bends. The stock one, roughly plumbed up, quietened it down alot without reducing power too much. Went this route to keep it relatively quiet and less than a 1/4 the price of...

Yeah, I've read that the 1.0 ecu has an extra 5degrees of advance. Maybe the ecu takes into account the base timing, and what it displays through consult is that load advance then? I'll have to do more testing and data recording, see what it's doing on boost. Got a wideband O2 kit in post too...

My load advance goes up to 25 at cruise, then gets upto about 35, occassionally 40 while accelerating. I'm not too clued up with it though, but it's working well atm. It ran fine at stock 15*, then I retarded it slightly but it then ran crap on boost. Now I'm slightly more advanced and it's...

Something like that yeah, but I do think the ecu knows where it's manually set. I've marked on the dizzy where 15*btdc is, and I know fully turned clockwise/advanced is about 20*btdc. Currently I'm in the middle of these markers, and consult(or Nissan datalog I think it is I've got) jumps around...

Car has been missfiring a little now I retarded the timing a touch, approx 13*btdc at 900rpm. So I've been pushing this up a little and it seems quite suited to 18*, or thereabouts (using consult to measure). Seems nippier at low revs, boost seems to kick in a little earlier too, and makes more...

That's not working either, doesn't want to penetrate, the weld just runs off. I'll keep at it for today, but I'm thinking about leaving it and welding in another lambda bolt lol

Have covered 400 miles since last update, returning about 35mpg with mixed driving. Running quite well, I tried to get some vids up but I failed. 0-60mph is about 8 seconds now I reckon, but with the current 155/70/13's on I usually end up spinning the tyres in 1st and 2nd. I've now retarded...
