Nytsky's Engine Build

[Beer Baron]

cool. good to see it back on the dyno. hope it goes well mate.

[Marko R1]

I had the same problem with my car, exhaust tone was nice but after driving it for 20min u get over it pretty quickly (its a sign of old age, I like to call it maturity lol)

Besides that, when the exhaust db drops, u get to hear more engine noise which is a major plus.

[Lithium]

Very much looking forward to seeing how this comes out, should be good

[N1GTR]

So not long till the drag day but heaps of time for running in and tuning - how is it looking Dave?

[NYTSKY]

Wont be making the drag day, still need to make changes for it to be road worthy. As the car has been pulled apart and off the road for so long, Adam suggested that the car as a whole needs a few K's put on it just to see if there is anything that needs attention.

So far 200rwkw@10psi 5000rpm. Makes more power and torque everywhere. Feels strong.

Ordered my new plates too

[Lithium]

Just as a reminder (I've tried searching through the thread but there are changes throughout it), what turbo setup including hotside, turbo and engine spec is this now?

[NYTSKY]

RB25/30

Ported head

HKS 256/264 cams

Tomei springs

Nitto headgasket

Nitto/JE pistons

Nitto I beam rods

Block mods

etc etc etc

GT35R.82

6boost manifold

4inch dump

4inch exhaust

I hope the rear housing will be big enough.

[TiTAN]

RB30 engine with the same turbo setup he had on the RB25.

Cheers, and I am sure it will be fine... for some reason I thought you were going GTX

[Harey]

I see a 1.06 housing in your future

[O2 Autosports]

I couldn't make more than 300-330 with a .82. Gained 100kw just changing to a 1.06.

Sounds a bit suss, there's not 100kw in a housing. Likely a tune issue.

If it is heavily restricted it might (exhaust temps/backpressure meaning you have to retard ignition massively), 3L is a lot bigger than a 2.5L

[TiTAN]

3L engines have made 400kw on the 0.82 housing before but getting a 0.82 housing to 400 is loading a fair whack of boost into the thing.

[N1GTR]

I think you'll find Nathan's is still a 2.6L, he will join the cool kids with the 3L's soon enough I hope

[FineLine]

Ffs dont waste your time and money with the .82 housing Dave. It will only end in tears.

At the very least use a 1.06 housing and even then dont tune it without egt sensors.

You setup is almost a mirror of mine and the 33 racer car. I wont tell you how any 35r's came to grief between the 2 engines before we woke up. Using the .82 is like f**king for virginity, You wont get the desired result.

hilarious - this is a great 1 liner

What Noel said mate!

But if you do manage over 400 with the .82 ill be impressed, especially if the backpressure isnt stupid and you can keep egts below 800c and stop the turbo from shitting itself the first time you go do a track day.

he did manage to pull over 400 on the RB25. topped out at 429kw from memory?

[r33_racer]

That is impressive! Well it shouldnt be too hard for him to make the same power if not more but with more response.
