hey there

my GTR has a LINK G4, no AFM's, profect B.......just a question my car has the profect set on 15lbs and 18lbs, my mechanic is going to do the 'cold start' next week, i asked him if he could set the profect to 20lbs instead of 18lbs, he hasnt mapped it over 18lbs

will it have to go on the dyno to set the cold start, and would it have to go back on the dyno to map it to 20lbs? im guessing yes? am i asking a bit much of my standard internals (RB26) to run at 20lbs? rev limit set to 7400RPM, engine mint compression, no knocks etc.......

cheers

what turbos? that's the big factor you've left out.

wont need to be on the dyno to re-do the cold start. will need to be on the dyno to set the boost control properly at 20psi.

hey sorry

big ol' 2860-5.....and usual upgrades

cheers

well whether your engine can handle 20psi out of -5s is impossible to predict really. maybe it will maybe it wont. one thing is for sure the more boost and (with larger turbs) the more airflow you are putting into the engine the more likely any weakness is to show up. so it's your call really. the turbos can certainly take it no problem. if it were me and your engine is as good as you say then sure give it 20psi on the street. on the track (should you go there) maybe turn it down a bit for some safety.

    • I have multiple bottles in a shed that gets hot, and I'm in SEQ, so it's humid. Maybe we test their theory... Anyone have a system to accurately measure moisture content in oil?
    • Yeah, that and throwing away opened, part used, closed back up bottles has got to be bullshit. Brake fluid sits in not-very-well sealed master cylinder reservoirs for literal years and keeps working (albeit we know we should flush it every couple of years - it actually still works). Anything kept in a bottle in the shed with a tightly capped lid has got to be a million times better than what has been in the car for the same length of time.
    • Wait, they're claiming UNOPENED fluid has a shelf life of only 18 months?
    • The plan is to get it out of the shed. The reality may fall some way short. But hope is as cheap as despair as they say. Will go a wide band I think. The coils are ok so maybe I’ll miss the $1500 on the R35 coils etc. Im still on the fence about a trigger kit. The HKS one looks nice ($1k) - not sure how it works with the Link or if Link prefer something else. Oil pressure is fine so I’m not that concerned there. Fuel pressure I’ll have a think about. The IAT got changed for the Link anyway as the old RB26 ones were really slow reacting and pretty poor. The Power FC just worked. Wasn’t terribly refined but it just worked. Probably made a mistake replacing it really. E85 isn’t available locally - it is 100+ kms away which puts it in the too hard basket. Lastly I understand Tunecorp in Perth are pretty good so was probably going there.   As for turbos is there are new age -5 drop in replacement? Turbos have come a long way in 20 years, everyone is big single which is fair enough but I prefer the old school complication of twins. Wasn’t chasing more power (well, not much more) but more efficiency would be ok.
    • I thought I'd share this....the shell is non genuine but they found or built a lot of the genuine parts. Plus, it is by far the best colour scheme of those years, the winfield once was particularly shit https://www.v8sleuth.com.au/written-off-inaugural-godzilla-recreated/
