went on the dyno yesterday for a remap and a cleanout. Really happy cars running great now and made 210.9kW @ 168km/h. :laugh:

Looking at the torque graph its a bit weired, silly auto's. instead of it increasing slowly as like a power curve it's high then drops it all off and then goes back up again.

Hmmm thats some good power, be stoked if mine gets near that when i finnally get the NISTUNE put in.

Love that exhaust to, so want.

Thanks mate :banana:

So the volks are getting picked up on Sunday arvo and these are my temporary wheels........but I think are going to slightly more permanent.

18x9 +30 & 18x10 +18 front and rear rapped in Kumho Ku36’s

They sit pretty nice, but need to get the guards rolled and lift the rear slightly so that’s happening tonight so its sweet for the SAU-SA Dyno Day.

Failing that though nothing a few degrees of negative camber can’t fix

A few little updates, I ordered myself a KKR Black intercooler kit today 600x300x76 so should arrive later this week ready for Saturday to get hooked up and also found a silvertop r32 actuator too with an 11psi spring which is better than the weak as standard 34 one. Then the following weekend going to do the 100k major service and get her running sweet.

We have a problem though...

The few weekends ago I took my gf and a couple of her friends on a wine tour in Malaren Vale, was a really nice day until we pulled into this one of the wineries driveway (had a horrible peak really sharp angle). Went over it thinking should be sweet anyways bottomed out over the crest of the driveway and heard a large bang, pulled up and opened the bonnet to hear a violent hissing sound so turned the car off and the hissing persisted. Now the only thing it thought that would be holding air pressure with the car off is the air conditioning system. But that works fine hot or cold and it was coming from around the turbo right hand side of the engine bay. So I’m really stummed, i haven’t had time to get it on a hoiste to check the front pipe (might have cracked that) but a few weeks ago we had the sau:sa dyno day i only made 161kw.

Then going to take it up to dex at garage 7 for him to have a sus and try find out what might have happened and to get another tune with the fmic n new actuator & 12pound instead of the 10 its running now.

New addition for the 34 arrived yesterday.....KKR Stealth series tube & fin front mount intercooler kit. Its all black! :)

I plan on getting it in ether this weekend or next, so keen to see how it looks behind the front bar :)

Just picked these up...after a 2 and a half month wait for them, got send the first set without a locknut key :P

but all good now they took them back n sent me a new set just took forever...

    • Hi All, New member here, I've joined to help my son with an issue that is truly doing our heads in. I'll start with a bit of an overview. Chris carried out some modifications to the engine to try and extract just a little extra power out of the motor and make it a bit more efficient. Previous to this work, the car already had an upgraded exhaust, increased boost up to 14psi, modified standard turbo to metal impellers and slightly oversized, upgraded fuel pump, been dyno-tuned at JEM, and some other bits n bobs like coil packs etc. Before the current mods it was making 236rwkw at 14psi but after the new mods it now makes 209rwkw at 14psi. The work he carried out is as follows, timing belt service, water pump replacement, return to sump radium catch can, had oem head rebuilt and machined 0.2mm, fitted Athena cut ring head gasket 1.2mm thick, arp 2000 head studs, added rear prp head drain, added an external wastegate 40mm turbosmart welded off the stock manifold and plumbed back into a 3in dump. The car has been on the dyno and apparently the ignition is working, fuel flow and fuel pressure is fine, injectors are fine, spark plugs are working fine, Maf is working, O2 sensor is working, TPs sensor is working, VCT is working, CAS is working, boost leak test showed no boost leaks, compression test first crank cold 135psi and got to 150psi across all cylinders once cranking, timing is confirmed at tdc with a dial gauge and the cam dots line up, no blockages in intercoolerm throttle body or pre-turbo intake, no blockages in exhaust, cat conveter or down pipe, turbo looks fine and spins and wastegate looks fine and is new. Soz for all the detail but after all this, it has been in 3 times for dyno and each time comes back stating it's not going to make power. After the first (or second, can't remember now) trip to dyno we did find the timing out by one tooth and this improved things, but it is still well down. Does anyone have any ideas?  Any replies much appreciated as we're just not sure of which direction to take this. Regards Rob (Chris's Dad).
    • That's just a gauge, with a certain amount of electronic damping, and no-one cares if it is timely-accurate. I'd hesitate to use it for an ECU MAP input without knowing that it was a nice signal. Responsive but smooth. Not laggy. Not lumpy.
    • Took the dirty BMW to an actual drag meet so I could do a legit full pass on a sticky enough track and had a quiet goal to try and beat my PB in the old R33 GTS25t The time to beat:  R33 on stock RB25, Internal gate GT3076R on stock manifold tuned to about 17psi on BP98 and running on drag tyres: F20 M135i with intake, dump pipe and MHD OTS Stage 1 tune on street tyres - didn't even drop the tyre pressure: Kinda similar, and kinda way different
    • Isn't there a fitting on the back of the balance tube? That's what the OEM boost gauge uses.
    • Getting a decent signal from all 6 throats is a challenge. I don't know for sure, but I suspect that the stock balance tube is not ideal for it. I have done it on an ALFA 4 cylinder (about 35 years ago, so don't ask for too many details). We drilled 4x holes in the manifold runners, put in some fittings and ran hoses to a decent sized (I think it was about 20mm diameter) pipe that ran the length of the inlet manifold. So, it was quite a decent volume. There is a "tuning" balance to be found between the volume of the common plenum on such a thing and the diameter of the pipes running from it to the runners. You need the volume to be large enough to damp out the sharp spikes in pressure signal you get as each runner gets sucked on by its cylinder, but not so large that it becomes too slow to respond to actual changes in MAP. And you need the hoses to be small enough to transmit the signal quickly, but not so small that they delay the signal. You might have to have more than one go at it, if there isn't any actual success based wisdom to be had here. Hopefully there is. Anyway, I would not do it on only a couple of cylinders. I would also not care about "permanently modifying a part". Just bloody drill holes and make stuff better. There is nothing sacred about any GTR unless it is a genuine museum piece that you shouldn't be modifying at all anyway.
