Damn..... Is that the reason I have shut arrive that I don't remember buying!!!!

Haha so dangerous...

But, while completely sober, I just scored myself an Emanage Ultimate! :banana:

Despite some sniper at the end who drove the price up from $150, scored it for $355! Came off an R33 and he has an SR20 map, but I should be fine to hook it up. Plus it seems to come with a universal loom! :banana:

I'm very happy with that catch, can't wait to get it hooked up. Just have to get the boost sensor, and should be right to go! Might even try and get it tuned by Cian when I come over for Gymkhana if time allows.

fitted up my 3" bellmouth front dump pipe this arvo, the car pulls sooo much better.

Just gotta get a 3" metal cat and the car will be 3" from the turbo to the rear blast pipes

sooo much less restrictive, and i made it stealthy black :ph34r:

Just fitted my shiny new bc coilovers yesterday, they are a pretty good piece of gear. I did get a bit excited about dropping it though, ended up running about -5 degrees of camber on the rear this resulted in my 350z wheels touching the shock body.fixed it all up today and it feels like a new car. I will say that one of the factory shocks died at the hands of my 4 inch grinder because it wouldn't come out easily - no pain no gain

....And the flames???

....And the flames???

they are a bit bigger, turbo spool is alot faster and a lot louder.

but the flames are still there, i nearly melted one of the lads at works R32 front bumper twith them over the weekend!

so he kept up with you :nyaanyaa:lol joke.

dump/front looks great!

found out i have a nice fuel leak from the o-ring seal.

figured out when i lost a quarter of the tank within about a minute and 2kms lol

will need a part number if anyone has it.

cammmm.

Went for a retune on Sat with the MAP sensor and EBC installed...

made an extra 6 awkw @ 19PSI...>_<

The good (or bad) news on the other hand was that Cihan found the LPG was leaning out above 5k rpm...not sure why this was happening. Possibly the weather as the last tune was done in March.

So at least now I won't unknowningly blow my engine up while on gas...:blush:

need bigger jets...guess this will stop me from procrastinating from taking my car back to the gas joint.

Got a price for me for the GTX setup yet Scotty? :whistling: Can't believe I'm such a number chaser...lol

why the GTX?????

arghhhhhhhhhhhhh

you can't compare torque figures from rolling road dynos

its tractive effort which is a factor of wheel size, tyre profile, gear ratios, diff ratios and lots of other stuff

only true way to get a torque reading is on an engine dyno

i know that, but i wanted to see if there was a difference from this time compared to his last tune. i dont care what type of effort it is, if there is an improvement, regardless it will show.

Well considering all these cars use the same gear ratios and diff ratios, and rolling diameters will be very close; it's probably a fair comparison, especially given they're all on the same dyno.

Everyone knows it's just a number; but with identical drivetrains you're comparing apples with apples...

nope, ARX and AXIS have a larger rolling diameter.

also PM35s are different, also as as 2WD and 4WD models of the PM35 (im only talking about models available in australia)

    • It's not, but it does feel like a bit of a missed opportunity regardless. For example, what if the cylinder head was redesigned to fit a GDI fuel system? It's worth like two full points of compression ratio when looking at modern GDI turbo vs PFI turbo. I'm pretty reliably surprised at how much less turbo it takes to make similar power out of a modern engine vs something like an RB26. Something with roughly the same dimensions as a -7 on an S55 is making absolutely silly power numbers compared to an RB26. I know there's a ton of power loss from things like high tension rings, high viscosity oil, clutch fan, AWD standby loss, etc but it's something like 700 whp in an F80 M3 vs 400 whp in an R33 GTR. The stock TF035HL4W turbos in an F80 M3 are really rather dinky little things and that's enough to get 400 whp at 18 psi. This just seems unwise no? I thought the general approach is if you aren't knock limited the MFB50 should be held constant through the RPM range. So more timing with RPM, but less timing with more cylinder filling. A VE-based table should accordingly inverse the VE curve of the engine.
    • I've seen tunes from big name workshops with cars making in excess of 700kW and one thing that stood out to me, is that noone is bothering with torque management. Everyone is throwing in as much timing as the motor can take for a pull. Sure that yields pretty numbers on a dyno, but it's not keeping these motors together for more than a few squirts down the straight without blowing coolant or head gaskets. If tuners, paid a bit more attention and took timing out in the mid range, managed boost a bit better, you'll probably see less motors grenading. Not to name names, or anything like that, but I've seen a tune, from a pretty wild GT-R from a big name tuner and I was but perplexed on the amount of timing jammed into it. You would have expected a quite a bit less timing at peak torque versus near the limiter, but there was literally 3 degrees of difference. Sure you want to make as much as possible throughout the RPM range, but why? At the expense of blowing motors? Anyhow I think we've gone off topic enough once again lol.
    • Because that’s not what any of them are building these heads or blocks for. It’s to hold over over 1000hp at the wheels without breaking and none of that stuff is required to make power 
    • Dort sounds above 3k rpm are dorty 🤣 I might krinkle black the alloy 🤔
    • It makes you wonder, all these people starting to make a billet replacement head, I wonder if any have thought about trying to adapt tech from newer engines into them. You're already at the full design stage to make a billet head... Why not really spice it up and had some more modern tech into the mix too...
