New modifications of my Omega
« on: 04 November 2008, 01:16:25 »

So, the first modification i made recently is limited slip differential!  :)

i changed this:


to this:


i've installed the original 45% lsd from the omega b non fl



and here are the effects  ;D







and some videos - sorry for the quality - just cellphones

Another modifiaction is an air resonator (as mantzel's one), gives some HP and Nm









And last mod - making the nivo to work properly with lowering springs - after small modification of the sensor everything's fine now - the nivo doesn't pump the absorbers so much, as there were normal springs




I hope you like it :)

with my setup it works really well tbh, the second bod normally only gets air when the butterfly in the lower assembly opens, more air is a great start to any engine mods .... :y

you get rid of all those pipes there, and this empty box - resonator gives higher efficiency of the air intake, although it becomes a bit more noisy

i really feel the diffirence after installing the resonator box, so i can say it was worth to do this mod :)

when you press the accelerator pedal, you instantly feel the car accelerating... another thing i've noticed is not loosing the power on high rotates of 5000-6000. So the engine gets enough air now, and it has more power on high rotates

I have a fair amount of experiance tuning turbo datsuns, but turbos are easy!

Just wondered why vx go to all that trouble of fitting something apparantly useless?!

Also aware that anything less than the 3.0 AFM gets confused about the extra airflow and actually loses power  :)

Just aware that A: the management seems very sensative and B: I cant afford to fix it once its broke!  

Cheers Chaps :y

I am refering to this throttle comment about only one getting fed until another valve opens.....whcih si very wrong.

The dimensions of the mantzel unit would be interesting and any details of the internals.

new as I am to this car but not to cars/engines in general, I was under the impresion that each TB fed each bank?

Also wonder why a resonator box would help, it would upset the airflow more than anything, esp since you are limted to the airflow in in the first place by the single AFM? So striaght pipes would surely be the answer?

But obviously I then question why vx but the extra gubbins in there in the first place if by removing them makes everything better, unless its emissions only  :)
