You'll basically have boost at idle. :thumbsup:

My GTSS's come on well and truly be 3000-3300rpm from what i can gather... too busy watching the road as its all over the place

And thats with the stock management still. No tuning or anything.

On a 3ltr... it would be somewhere in the 2000rpm range id imagine. Would be very torque filled but i'd imagine would die in the upper RPM somewhat

Cheers thanks for that do you think theirs any way I will achieve 300rwkw?

Theyd be good without being great. It would drive like a naturally aspirated motor :P

Id be itching to use that displacement to full effect with some 2530s though. Sell the ss's for 2k and put that towards something else perhaps?

........Then again i just saw youve got a vl.

If its an SL auto then 300rwkw is more than enough for some lightning times

More power creates more traction issues obviously

My car weights in around 1400kg's or so, if it was a 1250kg VL... jebus.

I was told the car will feel like a 3.5ltr N/A, and it honestly does. Very strong.

Whats the use of the car?

That will have some gauge on what you want/dont etc.

More power poses a problem in a way, depends how linear it is. Light-switch style is harsh as its just all over the place from nothing

    • A question for tuning awd, is it possible to disable the AWD? The stagea is an EA/T AWD, Toshi had said on a GTR, he was able to disable it and make it 2wd. Just wanted to double check if this was possible
    • Whoa, that's a name I've not see for a long time! Sorry to hear about the engine / turbo damage.  Fwiw with any engine problems it often really a case of just seeing what happens when it's apart, ymmv - I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the damage isn't even from the turbo failure, or possibly from a combination.  The airflow between cylinders isn't dead even, injectors can go off over time as well, with the turbos overboosting if you didn't have upgraded fuel system there could have possibly been a bit of leaning out - stock triggering is often a bit unreliable by this age too.  Basically its an old engine and a few things could have been going on, and you won't know how much work is needed until the engine is apart.  
    • I'm just shocked there's a euro driver on our roads who is thinking of other road users and not attempting to blind everyone. I wonder if Prank uses his indicator too...
    • Its hard to tell really. The Q50 owner's forum talks about it a lot and has quite a few people directly affected, but no idea what % of cars sold actually had the block replaced. Also, there seem to be 2 distinct issues which both get diagnosed by Infiniti as requiring a block replacement (no wonder they are going broke) 1. "Porous block" where coolant mixes with oil through thin or poorly cast parts of the block 2. Head coolant gallery plugs not sealing. If I was noticing engine coolant loss I'd start with cooling system pressure test (as always) and then I'd pull the cam covers and reseal the coolant gallery plugs on both side before worrying about a potentially porous block.  If neither of those did the trick it would be put in a second hand engine out of japan; I haven't checked pricing but I'm sure there are plenty around by now as they've been in production 10+ years
    • To clarify what I posted above, I thought you both had a situation where it cancelled sooner one way than the other.....if it is reasonably even where it cancels in either direction that is probably normal (consider gentle movements like lane changes, you don't want it to need half a turn of lock to turn the indicators off)
