Same here, Nismo lift, 2x044s, surge tank, twin entry rail, ID2000s, lines front to back etc etc.

My mates GTR made high 500awkw before they put a 3rd one in. Now makes 720awkw :P

Well thats a little comforting!

You should be able to fit 3 in (I've got 3 in mine), how is it currently setup?

Nismo lift into surge and both 044's mounted on the surge. I was discussing with Steve today that IF it comes to it we might have to make a bracket and mount one next to the surge. Thing is how do we merge the 3rd pump into the 2 lines? Hmm?

^^^ with any luck I will have the results on Friday arvo. The good thing about this is there will be two maps done.... 98 and E85. Same dyno, same tuner, same setup 1 day apart.

I did a 98 map and one for avgas mix same dyno about 25mins apart. dont remember injector dc tho.

Went from 420rwkw @ 19psi to 475rwkw @ 24psi. And then we picked up on the oil problem that resulted in a bent crank...

RB30 crank. Nothing special. The workshop that fitted the engine here in Tassie hooked the oil cooler lines backwards so oil was pumped to the wrong side of the filter relocation kit and things were a little starved of oil.

Thats what I said. When its marked "in" and "out".

Its a shame as the engine was going to make some good power. The engine was built and shipped here so only needed to be fitted. I was going to fit it myself but didnt have the time. I wish I made time now. lol

Its been sent back to the builder for a new crank and whatever else is needed to get it up and running again.

Next tune will be on E85. Thats why im interested to see what everyone else is doing.

If I need a 3rd 044 then so be it. :)

Ok so Paul and I were talking about this in depth tonight.

We are both concerned about max flow for big power but the empty surge tank thing is a huge concern aswel so we will test that first

We are going to take the pump off and test the flow properly, we will post up accurate results (will be on e85) as it seems no one else has this info.

There is another option from 3 or even 4 044's. I use 2 x Pierburg pumps on my GTR. out of 1 dash 6 line (my return from my reg) at 40psi I get 12.5 liters a min. The also are a sucker and a pusher so no need to have them fed by other pumps. Has seen around 610rwhp with no dramas at all. They are ethanol/methanol friendly as well.

I actually have no surge tank, but have 2 x Dash 10 lines feed into my tank with strainers connected directly to the fuel line.

Obviously if I have descent G's and under a 1/4 of a tank I will have issues but until then I can hold it flat for ages and not have a drama.

Always handy if you are towing a trailer, up a hill in the sand :)

does anyone run a low level switch in their surge? if there was a spot inch or so above pickup connected to a simple warning light might give piece of mind down the strip?

i think on circuit it would be a good idea , but just for strip i reckon u have some massive problems if u can empty ur surge in 11 secs or less

Here is a new issue. Over filling over the surge tank. Now having 2 044's feeding the engine not all the fuel is going to be used. The fuel heats up and expands..... Has anyone split a tank due to excessive pressure?

There is a thread on the pommie forum about this. The line back to my main tank from the surge is the same as the incoming return..... Maybe I should have made it a few sizes bigger!!! BAH!

and/or put a cooler in the return line

i have a small tranny cooler from super shit in my return line, works well. before that the pump used to start cavitating on hot days after half an hour or so of light driving, now it takes a really really hot day for it to do it.

    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
    • Got just the wing painted and fitted up to the existing boot. Big visual change and about time after having a GTR wing sitting in the shed since 2018 Headed up to Mallala with a quick obligatory stop in at Boliver OTR Oil control mods seems to have worked. I checked the catch can after session 1 and there was a dribble of water/e85 with barely any oil in it. After session 2 and 3 there was almost nothing and I stopped checking after that. so either great success or catastrophic failure/block of the external breather The GTR wing made a noticeable difference in the 160-185km/h sweepers. It was a very hot day for the cars at over 33C but the previously done cooling upgrade/ducting/water sprayers meant I never saw over 60C intake, 105C water and 100C oil and temps would drop back down very quickly once I shut it down. AD09's are a decent tyre but certainly and expectedly a step down when compared the the CR-S/AR-1 I have had on the car for years of track days. The handling characteristics of my car which I often describe using the Tony Hawks Pro Skater balance mechanic where either side of the center is understeer/oversteer was much more pronounced with no "green/safe" zone in the middle. However, imo it steers well/easily during oversteer largely thanks to the custom ACOSTAL front end. Enjoy a loose lap POV with my mate giggling away as a passenger.   Group photo for Peer Pressure Racing made it back home and gave it a wash Overall a great success compared to my previous two track days where i cooked the Starlets motor and blew up the new diff in the R32  
    • Nice. I'm looking forward to the updates!
    • Ayooo, been a while mates. I have a s2 r33 gtst and air stopped coming out of all the top vents.   My car has always made an actuator gear noise when turning the car on but that's a different issue I think? Did searches and am at process of thinking it's an actuator or some type of motor? I see a few different actuators and don't know which one. Would be nice to know if it was the one that's under the steering wheel so the dash doesn't need to come out.
    • Hi, just checking. Did you get this stuff made by Vspec Performance and at what price roughly? Looking into (sometime later) also getting such a intake kit, and Trust as well as HKS don't make a full set like this anymore.
