We got our Skyline back from our tuners on Friday and took it to a airfield track on Sat for a shakedown. The cars now running 500bhp at 1.5bar, 428bhp @ wheels ;)

Check out that power curve, awesome :notworthy

Some footage from Elvington on Sat. Bear in mind Im out for a bit of a prat around and to find the limits of the car, Im not going for ultimate lap times:

Right click and save as, 10.3mb

What 500bhp does to a poor unsuspecting passenger. Be warned LOTS of bad language:

Right click and save as, 6.8mb

Good result... the videos are amusing. ;)

Interesting venue where ur out at aswell. Looks almost like dirt hehe

I reckon if you spend a bit more time on the dyno there is some decent mid-range to be found there.

(if im doing the numbers correctly :))

You have around ~230rwkw @ 5500rpm

And then only ~260rwkw @ 6000rpm

Here is the smaller -20g for comparison

I reckon you can have a lot more in it.

Just a question, on the graph its making 1.5bar from before 3400rpm, is that an error or something? Its a little small for my eyes ;)

The graph is correct, the car runs 1.5bar from 3500rpm to 7500rpm :O

Its an airfield made up of a mixture of concete and tarmac. Theres loads of run off so its nice and safe to learn the capabilities of the car. We are trying to get it booked into a 'proper' track this week.

How would we get more midrange without a boost spike? The power delivery at the moment is excellent, very progressive and predictable. The car would actually be very usable for drifting as it is so responsive and has so little lag. Or at least it will be once I get rid of the Hicas.

We are hitting a bit of a brick wall at the top end, more boost just moves the entire power curve to the left a bit but peak power doesnt change. Any ideas? We think maybe the throttle body is a restriction.

Its taking a very long time to make power if its holding 1.5bar for over 2000rpm before the solid power arrives.

Whats the exhaust like? 3.5" or more?

Hrm... the tuning experts will know more :whistling:

It runs a 3" quiet exhaust and we have plumbed the external wastegate back onto the down pipe so we can pass the track noise restricitons. I have a more free flowing exhaust on order and we are looking at a mini silencer for the wastegate so we can seperate it from the downpipe :3some:

3" with a plumbed screamer...

I reckon thats the problemo right there.

I lost HEAPS of response when i had my screamer plumbed in as i only had a 3" exhaust.

For that power you really need 3.5 or better yet a 4" :whistling:

Nice work :whistling:

Looks like there is still alittle bit more I can get out of mine then :kiss: 1.5bar at under 4k? thats nice...my GT35R isnt on full song until mid 4k rev range

might have to remove the plumb back pipe on my screamer and see what the results are like then Ash :3some:

Cheers

JB :laugh:

dude that thing looks like a weapon..... now why cant i get power and response like that out of my setup!!!! :whistling:

also justa a question, u still running standard gearbox???

Standard gearbox but its starting to crunch into 4th and 5th. Not sure if its a syncro or clutch release issue.

Bren,

Out of interest, what size is the exhaust housing on the TD06-25G?

Greddy (Trust) list 8cm, 10cm and 12cm housings for the TD06.

Cheers.

Its known as a 25G, I dont have any more info than that to hand Im afraid.

Either the passenger has spent his entire life driving excels or the difference between power delivery from the driver and passenger seats is way different because ~300kw feels like im driving a bus. Then again, when it comes to braking for a corner you suddenly realise how fast you are going.

Who's job is it to realign all the cones when somebody has an off?

He was at the track day in a Pugeuot 106 if thats gives an indication of his expectations :)

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
