The GTX3584RS will support roughly 850-880HP on a 3.0L (maximum rpm of ~7500-8000) at a PR of about 3.1-3.3 No chance of getting 1000HP out of it, not unless it can be done at a PR of 2.75 and even th

Here's hoping it comes back a monster!

Perhaps a definitive answer on AVO's business ethics while were at it. We can see if they really were just too lazy to do better for the customer.

Maybe AVO just dont know how to get the car to come on boost sooner? Maybe there is an issue with the car? There may be something causing a restriction or an inferior/failing part. (thats not having a go at the car or the owner or AVO, its just a general comment)

A second opinion is always good if your not happy with the work done on the car but i wouldnt be to hard on AVO just yet.....

I know my car has recently been switched to E85 and the dyno figure actually went backwards.... am i disapointed, not just yet. We lost 20kwatw's, but the car was a lot harder to keep on the dyno this time around. One of the most reliable ways to tell whether it has gone forwards or not is to run it down the quarter. As long as my car runs quicker than 133mph i will be happy with the loss of power. If it doesnt i will quiz Yavuz as to what may be the cause. It made good power on pump, but maybe the setup isnt right for E85 and i may need to change something to suit it....

My point exactly. The owner has commented that they said they could try adjust the cam gears but this is the best they could do. The owner has queried the issue and soon we will see if it was a lack of commitment to the job that let him down. Short of not knowing how, all the above mentioned issues are something the shop should have tried to track down for the customer, not knowing how is something they should omit to the customer if it is the case.

I'd hold back any comment on AVO until its actually run on the familiar dyno, it could easily come down to ramp rates.

Agreed, yet I am not slagging them. I am merely saying we will see if it was a lack of commitment or not. So, we will see.

^ that should be epic, there is a guy in Europe on the way to his tuner with his R33 GTS25t running a FullRace twin scroll GTX3582R as we speak, that'll be interesting to see the result of too.

Whats the rest of the setup? Are you going to be able to lean on it a bit?

yeah leaning on it shouldnt be a problem running;

cp 9.0:1 pistons

nitto rods

dry sump set up

full balanced engine from harmonic balancer to clutch pressure plate

jim berry clutch

ported head

tomei springs

drop in cams

its in a silvia to and going to be on E85 cant wait been building it for 4 YEARS!:merli:

the pic is with the normal GT35 turbo that i sold

I am looking forward to seeing this set up working at its potential.

Trent isn't tuning. Just dyno running and diagnosing the lazy curve.

Exactly. They have done right by me thus far. And their work has been very good.

All very valid unbiased thoughts. Hopefully I will get my answer :)

I'm assuming ur referring to the 3582 lol

Yep, I tried to edit my post to clarify that when I discovered people had responded while I was typing that out and my interwebs got its glitch on and wouldn't let me.

If you aren't going to be shy on boost then I'd be surprised if you didn't blow that figure out of the water - even on a harsh dyno. Who is tuning it/what kind of dyno is going to be used? On E85 and a bunch of boost I'm expecting there is a good chance it'll make quite eye opening power, and bring it on quite quickly :) Will be particularly interested in seeing when it cracks 200kw...

im will be talking to a few tuners im in sydney so it will be out of JEM/Powertune/unigroup still probly 4-5months off from any dyno time

quick question guys would a 3 1/2 inch dump to 4inch cat back be over kill for my set up? OR should i just stick to 3 1/2 inch the whole way?

      MLR's Bogan cruise ship

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
