Thats okay, but after speaking to some of the big tuners over in the States and Japan they all state that they remove the squish zones and use a custom piston to suit hence the purpose of this post since they arent reluctant to release what combustion chamber/piston design they use that allows high compression (9.0-9.5:1) with a fair amount of boost (1.5Bar) on pump fuel. And before anyone says Japan has better fuel the US doesnt and they still seem able to do it

So what, how much ignition timing have they pulled out of it?

How rich are they running it?

What's the average power?

What's the response like?

In the US they chase the max horsepower number, they don't care about anything else

:) cheers :P

why bother with all this stuff when rb 25 & 26 heads really only need a port job and the correct cam for your application... there are rb25 making 600 rwhp plus std head ported... & rb 26 heads ported making 1000 plus hp...leave alone what already works...

cheers, mark.

Proengines: Thanks very much for your input. I have drawn up some other chambers as you mentioned, I didnt quite understand the one about the V8 Wedge engines so I will wait for a clarification. If you can let me know which of the combustion chambers will work the best.

My engine specs are RB26, high comp (9.0-10.0:1) running 1.5 bar and pump fuel to make 500awkw which is approx 800bhp.

Chamber images:

1. Totally removed squish inlet and exhaust

2. Reduced squish inlet and exhaust allowing flat top piston due to piston entering the chamber where the squish was removed

3. Reduced exhaust squish with a Edyne style piston

I greatly appreciate your's and everyon elses opinion

In our RB20DET GTS4, TurboX(Greg) spent hours removing any sharp machining edges and blending the chambers smooth by hand.

The compression ratio drop is very small. We have had the boost set at 15psig so far with no dramas.

Okay, well I dont want this to turn into a heated discussion. From the impression I am getting people in Australia dont modify the combustion chambers other than polishing and radiusing the edges.

Is it possible to run 9.5:1, 1.5 Bar and Optimax Extreme?

Don't know, never tried it.

I do know 2 bar, 9.0 to 1 and Shell Optimax Extreme 100 ron is not a problem.

:glare: cheers :laugh:

      3D printing fun

      By Sean'O · Posted

      Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.

      When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
