Nicely's Spec R Aero

[raytsang]

i've a air con filter ordered too...
big smell of smoke from it when the fans are on full,
was thinking of taking it out to see if washing it helps, cant stand the smell.

nicely how long did it take to deliver??

 

[Nicely]

Once its in stock, it takes about a week from Japan. That's from Perfectrun... Probably about two weeks, which is better than the three months (and counting) its taking Nissan GB...

3 months
I could order a filter with sea freight and the ship will have time to return to Japan before Nissan get it together

Now I know where I don't want to buy spare parts

 

[Nicely]

Its usually 3-6 weeks. That was taking the piss, and my parts guy agreed. Told him to cancel cos I had one that would be here in a week for probably half the price (never got the Nissan GB price).

My service manual reccomends replacing the a/c filter at 80,000km (50,000miles). Somehow the Nissan Service Agent where I had my last service 80,000km) thought they knew better than the people who make the car and didn't replace it at the reccomended time. They said "those bits don't usually need replacing" and that if I wanted it done it would cost extra in the service. Der.......that's why you pay for a service. :wave:

 

[Nicely]

The workshop manual doesn't specify an interval. It just says sooner for dusty conditions. I'd say that interval is about right.

New photos added in the first post.

New guide for the a/c filter fitting now available here

 

[sushiming]

how much does the filter cost ??

 

[Topper]

I need the self folding mirrors :nod:

 

[Nicely]

Haven't got the price on me at the mo. It was about what you'd expect though...

 

[Jono]

Smart guide - will come in handy I'm sure. :thumbs:

 

[Nicely]

The filter was about ?22 plus postage. Obviously mine came with other stuff, so the postage was reduced.

Just found it in the workshop manual. Filter should be washed every 12000 Km/7500 Miles or every 12 months (sooner in extreme conditions). Replace when noticeably dirty.

dyno

great set of curves nicely. your low end performance is v impressive. do you have afr/ lamba and boost curves?
also how come you stop at 7k. my car stock ecu no remap hit the limiter at 7800rpm.

 

[Nicely]

Not sure if it hit the limiter or they just let off. Either way, it was not continuing to increase power. Its not been remapped since before the turbo elbow and tubular mani were added. I would image it needs tweaking at the top end. I've got a boosting problem were the turbo goes nuts after about 1.05 bar so I have the controller set to 1 bar. I have eliminated all possibilities except the turbo with this problem. I've got a nearly new T28BB ready to swap over. When this goes in, and the 740s, it'll be getting one of Jez's chips with a new custom mapping.

Sorry, no boost and lambda curves. Jez had those when he mapped the Emanage.

 

[Topper]

Getting rid of the E-manage Nicely?? interesting

 

[Nicely]

:no: The chip will be the new ECU baseline. The Emanage can be used to do future tweaks...

 

[Topper]

Are you tweaking things the Emanage cant??

 

[Nicely]

The new chip will give a mapping more precise than a PFC. The Emanage can be run with a blank map until I make any future changes. I can then map those myself.

jez remap

i see a remap in my medium future @1.2 bar. got my eye on full rose joints first. when my lotto comes in, twincharging!
