Made 268rwkw @ 6000rpm on 15.5psi with the GT3076r .82 yesterday. ;)

Pushed more boost (up to 20psi) in but as it pushed past 275rwkw the curve got all spiky; no det issues just a messy curve.

Shaun seems to think its the baby 232duration 7.3mm lift exhaust cam in these r32 rb25de heads.

Pushed in another 2 degree's and saw 270rwkw peak but not worth the 2rwkw; there was no det but I'd prefer to pull 2degree's for only 2rwkw.

Afr's are mid 11's dipping to low 11's after peak power is made.

Not sure whats up with the clutch; shaun did say it felt high but was holding in ok on the dyno; so maybe it gets a bit hot on gearchanges and then starts to slip?!? :S

Should see a fairly easy 300rwkw with the GT30 going by how much ign advance Im able to run and ~270rwkw being made on only 15.5psi. :P

:waves:

Jess how much would i be looking @ for GTR hubs for 5 stud conversion

be back @ lunch :)

Hmm will find out a price for you tonite! :(

If there here in sydney tho I cant freight it through my work like I did last time as I have changed jobs! :P but will be able to sort something else out I reckon!

anyone want a track car??? 58sec Tsukuba time

http://www.racecarsdirect.com/viewlisting.php?view=7965

would be a nice lil car for some runs out at Mallala

yeah i would you can buy it for me for Christmas just as Kraster hes Satan Claus

25,000.00 GBP

=

61,865.52 AUD

Morn Jess , Guys

i was searching around last night Jess and other people that have done 5 stud conversions have been using Stagea front hubs

i can source R33gtst ones here from a guy i bought my front rotors from

im just getting ball park figures @ the moment and buying it piece buy piece otherwise ill never get the conversion done :)

Just feeling like having a whinge.. DAMN CAR!

Mine is just costing me more and more.. Just spent $350 on god knows what.. took it in for oil change etc and discovered shes leaking.. everywhere. Nice big mess under the bonnet! Needs new everything! Hoses n piping.. I have a possible turbo leak or something.. Injectors may be screwed..

Missing on idle really bad.. Probly need new coils while im at it.

Theres a massive list i just cant remember them all at the moment!

No wonder im always broke..

Car was a bit of a mess when i bought it just over a year ago, and problems just keep appearing grr.

Ok whinge over

How was everyone elses day?

    • Can't remember the last time I saw a good, healthy battery dropping into the 9s during cranking,  Too many variables to say anything about it with any certainty though.  A float voltage of 12-12.2 is tired AF and given how AGMs handle high C rate and DOD, will just die faster and faster with each cold start.   
    • I find most vehicles dip into the mid to high 9 volt range, even with a good battery. Hitting the low 9s, and especially hitting into the 8s is pretty indicative of a dieing battery. The other part to look at is the battery voltage after the battery has been fully charged. They should be sitting at 12.8V, as lead acids are dieing, they head down low and lower. Often getting as low as 12.0 - 12.2. You'll start seeing this when the engine is cranking over slowly. Interestingly, depending on the vehicle, when batteries get really bad, you can see some REALLY funky things going on. From very low voltages, to higher than 16V too. Something I totally didn't expect! This part of the super low and super high voltages I've been seeing on motorbikes, I need to do some further studies on cars. I suspect cars will act a little bit different though for a couple of reasons.
    • Thanks! Supercheap has a sale on this weekend so might be a good opportunity to get a new one. I do have a decent multimeter so I'll give it a try either way.   Hah, you got me! I do not. All I know is that the battery holds charge and sits at an okay level before I start the car. Doing the full charge and rejuvenation cycle on a trickle-charger seems to not really make a difference to the cold start behaviour. I'll try and measure it during cranking and see what it does. It's likely terrible; it certainly feels terrible.  I'll be happy if it is really just the battery and I don't have to dick around with the alternator or starter motor.
    • how do you know voltage is fine?  quick easy test is connect DMM up and put it on max/min mode, remove fuel pump fuse, crank car for 3-5s, go check min voltage You'd be surprised how many "healthy" batteries are showing under 10v during this test in cold weather. 
    • Not properly. You need to be able to dissipate 100 amps or so to doing it meaningfully. You can do it indirectly by watching to see how far the voltage falls during cranking. Unplug the coils or something else to prevent it from starting so you can get a good couple or three chugs. It also helps if you have the multimeter set up reading before you start, and that it has max/min functions. So you can catch the real minimum without having to watch the screen, which often doesn't update fast enough to show the real max/min in dynamic situations. Or use a digital oscilloscope, which can be obtained for <<$100 from Aliexpress (although I'd argue for paying up to ~$200 for a nicer one). A >4 yr old battery will very likely be well down the path to the knackery. Many only last 5-6 years these days. The cold weather lately will definitely make it worse.
